Shigeru Miyamoto
is a Japanese video game designer, producer and game director at Nintendo, where he serves as one of its representative directors as an executive since 2002. Widely regarded as one of the most accomplished and influential designers in video games, he is the creator of some of the most acclaimed and best-selling game franchises of all time, including ''Mario,'' ''The Legend of Zelda'', ''Donkey Kong'', ''Star Fox'' and ''Pikmin''. More than 1 billion copies of games featuring franchises created by Miyamoto have been sold.Born in Sonobe, Kyoto, Miyamoto graduated from Kanazawa Municipal College of Industrial Arts. He originally sought a career as a manga artist, until developing an interest in video games. With the help of his father, he joined Nintendo in 1977 after impressing the president, Hiroshi Yamauchi, with his toys. He helped create art for the arcade game ''Sheriff'', and was later tasked with designing a new arcade game, leading to the 1981 game ''Donkey Kong''.
Miyamoto's games ''Super Mario Bros.'' (1985) and ''The Legend of Zelda'' (1986) helped the Nintendo Entertainment System dominate the console game market. His games have been flagships of every Nintendo video game console, from the arcade machines of the late 1970s to the present day. He managed Nintendo's Entertainment Analysis & Development software division, which developed many Nintendo games, and he played an important role in the creation of other influential games such as ''Pokémon Red'' and ''Blue'' (1996) and ''Metroid Prime'' (2002). Following the death of Nintendo president Satoru Iwata in July 2015, Miyamoto became acting president alongside Genyo Takeda until he was formally appointed "Creative Fellow" a few months later.
