What game is Shigeru Miyamoto most proud of?

Not Mario, Donkey Kong, or Zelda, it's... Pikmin

In the Spanish website blogocio (translated on GoNintendo), Shigeru Miyamoto shares on why he's most proud of Pikmin.

- development on Pikmin was very difficult
- multiple prototypes had to be made
- Miyamoto wasn't sure people would like the game, even following great reviews
- Miyamoto was actually hoping for higher review scores
- he wants devs to be encouraged to try new things instead of being discouraged by reviews

Thoughts?

Well, he's mentioned that he's proud of Pikmin and Star Fox 64 multiple times

Pikmin is perhaps the greatest thing to come from Nintendo in the last decade.

Pikmin is one of the reasons I regard Nintendo as the greatest game developing company ever.

I thought it would be Super Mario Galaxy since there was a sequel.

He mentioned that he praised Pikmin in a interview 3 years ago. So no surprise , really.

I was thinking it was either going to be Pikmin, Mario, or some IP nobody on System Wars cares about.

You would think he'd be saying this to the nintendo developers.

Lol, you made it!

as soon as I read the thread title, I was hoping Miyamoto would say Pikmin and here it is. The thing that I feel Miyamoto should be most proud of with this series is that after being in this industry for such a long time, he still came out with something that's completely original and absolutely fantastic. Best Nintendo series hands down in my books. 100% one of a kind and 100% brilliant.

At least it's not Wii Music. He seemed to be obsessed with that turd even long after Satoru Iwata gave the order to stop making copies of it.
