Some tidbits on the development of Starfox

https://gonintendo.com/stories/284497-original-starfox-devs-sit-down-to-stream-the-game-live-stream-r#comments

-Back in the day, Miyamoto smoked. A lot. 

-He would usually sit at Gile's desk with a cigarette in his mouth, testing the latest Star Fox controls. 

-They eventually banned smoking in the Nintendo office. 

-Nintendo EAD was only about 40 employees back in the day. 

-There's apparently rude 'miming' hidden in the game somewhere. 

-Debugging tools were practically non-existent back then, if the game crashed there was nothing to go on.

-Argonaut also tried to make the Super FX chip for Mega Drive / Genesis but it couldn't work due to limitations with the system's cartridge slot.

Wow i would have never expected Miyamoto to be the type of guy to smoke.
