Sur Les Traces de MIYAMOTO (Pix N Love )

Over the course of his career, he has been dubbed the "Walt Disney", the "Steven Spielberg" and the "Amadeus Mozart" of video games. Shigeru Miyamoto (Mario, The Legend of Zelda, Pikmin...) is not just a renowned designer: he is the emblematic figure of this electronic entertainment that emerged with computers and was democratised with colour television. What predisposed the famous designer to such success? How did a child born in the Japanese countryside in the early 1950s, surrounded by tree branches and plastic tanks, become the most recognised designer in such a technophile young industry? From his first amateur mangas to his iconic successes such as Donkey Kong and Super Mario Bros, via his studies in industrial design and his little-known games, In Miyamoto's Footsteps charts the rich and winding path of a passionate, independent and ambitious boy, from his birth in Sonobe in 1952 to the release in 1986 of his most personal work, The Legend of Zelda.
