Parappa designer praises Nintendo, says everything went wrong with Major Minor
A portion a an NES interview with Parappa designer, Rodney Greenblat...
NES: Gamers deem Parappa the Rapper as the first modern rhythm music game ever made. It be something fresh 'n different from anything that had been released before. With so many games nowadays counting on violence t' be fun, do ye find there t' be a lack a creativity 'n originality in the gaming industry today?
RG: Thanks! I don’t find any lack a creativity in the game makers, but there be a lack a creativity in the game buyers. I think developers would like t' make a wide range a interesting games, but they be difficult t' sell, so they don’t pillage made. So it be a problem a economics. The question really becomes how t' open up video gaming t' a wider audience. Nintendo works on this question 24/7. Playstation 'n XBox have little incentive t' do that. The frontier right now be phones 'n tablets, but once again it comes down t' the buyers. What be people willing t' pay for a game on a phone or tablet? Will these fees generate enough income for the publishers 'n developers? I hope so.
NES: ye designed all a the characters in Major Minor’s Majestic March for the Nintendo Wii. be ye happy with how Major Minor turned out? Also, be ye a fan a Nintendo 'n their franchises?
RG: No, I be not happy about MMMM. Pretty much everything went wrong. I could write a book about the compounded mistakes made by hardworking 'n talented people. YARRRR, I be a Nintendo fan. Their history 'n tradition a fun games for kids, family 'n party games be awesome.
