Mario Creator Shigeru Miyamoto Is "Very Hands-On" With the Upcoming Movie

Super Mario creator Shigeru Miyamoto remains closely involved with the making of the upcoming animated movie from Illumination Entertainment. In an interview with Fast Company, Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa revealed that the legendary video game developer has been working closely with the studio, to make sure that the end product is faithful to the video games. Miyamoto's involvement in the movie has been mentioned in the past, but this confirmation should help assure fans that the adaptation is in good hands! Unfortunately, the movie won't release until next year, so fans won't be able to judge for themselves for some time.
