SPOnG: Nintendo's Iwata Talks Mario Galaxy And Miyamoto

Nintendo in Japan has posted a discussion between Nintendo's president and CEO, Satoru Iwata, Super Mario Galaxy producer, Takao Shimizu, and director, Yoshiaki Koizumi. In the event that you don't speak or read Japanese, SPOnG has the entire interview translated.
