"There was a period when we first released the Nintendo DS that people would say there's no way people can look at two screens at once. I almost feel like, as people get more familiar with Wii U and these touchscreen interfaces, that there is going to come a point where they feel like 'I can't do everything I want to do if I don't have a second screen'. ...I feel a device like Wii U, with its ability to continue to offer new features and that network connection and the connection to the TV and the interface, really makes it feel that it's more than just a game machine, but something that offers a lot of practical use and practical purpose in the living room. I look at it as being a very useful device that can do many different things and therefore really seems to be the device that's ideal to have in the living room." - Shigeru Miyamoto

Miyamoto also took some time to talk about Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, games in today's age and making the Wii U experience better.
