For example:

- Zelda's original ideas of freedom for the player were met with opposition
- Kirby's first name was “Tinkle Popo”
- NoA and NoE hated the name 'Wii', for the obvious bathroom relationship
- The Super Nintendo controller into a single button 4 button design LR. This also heated debate within the company. When the 64 put on a stick in the middle.
- The GameCube controller is a little failure. LR of the analog button. Pikmin = done is going to make a game even beloved girl. The song caught on time.

The list is quite long. Beware of "Bad Engrish". Whoever wrote some of these, needed a better translator.
 
"- The GameCube controller is a little failure. LR of the analog button. Pikmin = done is going to make a game even beloved girl. The song caught on time."

Huh? I don't understand any of that.

Ditto, thus "Bad Engrish". The translator for Mr. Miyamoto wasn't quite the best it seems.
 
Haha I am still trying to decipher it but not much luck. The Pikmin part is really throwing me off.

Transration? Lingual sounds (R and L in particular) are hard to differentiate for speakers of some other languages.
 
Yea exactly. L does not even exist in the Japanese language. That's why you hear so many stereotypical jokes about that. It's pretty funny reading Japanese game manuals. "Link" in Japanese is "Rinku" :lol
