Mario’s creator Shigeru Miyamotohe said he didn’t have nothing against violent video gamesbut no one should expect the next game of Mario is a shooter with PEGI 18+. Of course, no one ever really thought that this could happen.
Speaking to Variety, Miyamoto said his goal is to find ways to make games fun and exciting. without having to put a gun in the character’s hand.
“I want to clarify that I’m not against shooter games and violent games,” he said. “There are many mediums that entertain people, but I think my mission is to find other ways to make a game that is interesting and fun. I told myself that Mario is a character who never hurts others, so I wanted to find a different way to express Mario.”
Mario has to eliminate various monsters during his adventures, but he is certainly not a violent character. The worst that usually happens is that enemies disappear in a cloud.
In the same interview, Miyamoto said that if we are interested in a new Mario game we should wait for a future Nintendo Direct. We also shouldn’t hold our breath waiting for a new chapter for smartphones.
