E3 08: 360 Avatars Flatters Miyamoto
At Microsoft’s E3 press conference earlier this week, Microsoft unveiled avatars for the Xbox 360. The avatars are said to have a resemblance to Nintendo’s Miis for the Nintendo Wii. In an set down with IGN, Miyamoto sound very flattered that Microsoft would adapt something like the Nintendo’s Miis to their 360.
Here’s what he had to say about the Xbox 360 avatars “To see that a company like Microsoft has taken something we’ve done and kind of looked at it in a way and brought it out on their platform to kind of show that we’ve done has become the standard, I find quite flattering.”
