The Shigeru Miyamoto Donkey Kong Country quote is something that has been passed around for ages, but I have never actually seen a source for it. I also recall Miyamoto himself saying in 2010 that he never said that because he worked closely with the production of DKC and wouldn't have talked trash on a colleague.

So where the hell does this quote even come from?

Some guy invented that shit.

And this theory was backed up with the point that the original Yoshi Island graphics were rejected by the Nintendo board at the time, because they told to Miyamoto that his game didnt look anything near as good as the Donkey Kong Country games. Thats also the reason why YI has cartoony graphics over realistic ones.

Seconding that it was some book. An anon mentioned it a while back and how it's full of /vr/ myths by some unreliable guy.

The book says Miyamoto said it while being interviewed alongside Tim Stamper, so even if it was said it's probably taken completely out of context.

probably the only real bullshit Miyamoto has done that theres absolute proofs he fucked up is how he pushed Dinosaur Planet from the N64 to the GC and turned into Star Fox Adventures, where it sold like shit. And pretty much killed the franchise with it.

Gotta love how these old ads would bullshit while still being technically true. I'm assuming the 111 includes bonus stages, because there sure as shit are not that many proper levels in the game.

Similar to how the Super Mario World box said there are 96 levels in the game, when really there are 96 exits.

Fucking nothing because no one has ever like a StarFox game after 64.

I honestly think they should just drop the series altogether, just like F-Zero (nobody wants a super-fast sci-fi racers anymore. People barely want racers in general anymore) and Mother (the series that was too niche for its own good).

They're still pretty interesting, some episodes are more a collection of myths and rumours but everything he mentions tends to have at least one concrete source. When he mentions the OP quote in the Miyamoto episode he cites a March '96 EGM interview as the source. Misinterpreted or not it was an interview that made it to print, not something he pulled out of his ass. You're right that it probably shouldn't be called 'fact hunt' though, seeing as it's mostly he-said, she-said.

It's true. Compare the mediocre gameplay of DKC with solid platformer gameplay as in SMW. DKC is just bad and is the beginning of the end of gaming where style over substance basically ruined it.

The quote would be interesting if true because SM64 is a perfect example of mediocre gameplay in a pretty game.

The original source of the rumor is Steven Kent's video game history book, where he cites his own interview from some magazine he used to work for. The interview seems unlikely because he describes it as haven taken place with Kent, one of the Stamper brothers (can't remember which one) and Miyamoto all in the same room. Aside from the fact that two men who live and work on opposite sides of the globe are probably very rarely able to be interviewed together in person, I'm not sure why Miyamoto would blame "Americans" for Donkey Kong Country when Rare is a British developer and he would know this.

Peer Schneider of IGN/Gaijin 4koma fame is probably the one most responsible for spreading it around though. The guy had a major hateboner for DKC for whatever reason.

I'm guessing it looked something like Super Mario World, in which case I understand completely. 1st party SNES games looked like shit until DKC came along. There is no good reason for Yoshi and the Koopalings to look the way they did, or for Link to have pink hair and live in fischer price land.

lol, who are you? I remember you from the last thread where you made a big stink about this. What is your obsession with convincing everyone Steven Kent made it up? Are you mad that the internet made it popular? Be mad at the internet, not the reporter.

No, he said that Croc started out as a 3D Yoshi game prototype that ended up giving inspiration for SM64.

And you just need to look at the game to see some evidence for that, with Argonaut previously working on Nintendo on another early 3D game (StarFox), Croc himself looking WAY too much like a Yoshi model changed just enough to avoid lawsuits, and even subtler stuff like most bosses being regular creatures enlarged with magic just like in YI, collectible-driven gameplay like YI, and game looking simplistic compared to SM64 despite being released later.

Actually a friend of mine mentioned it just after the release of Yoshi's Island in 1995. He didn't stated the font but apparently Miyamoto was asked what he tought about DKC and the response was an evasive "it has good graphics". Probably a quick comment like that was the origin of the myth. I am pretty sure that there is no interview in which he said that, so it must be a passing mention in some old magazine.
