Star Fox, F-Zero, and Zelda veteran Takaya Imamura was at Nintendo for over three decades before leaving in 2021, with a tenure so lengthy and impactful that he admits he was seeing Mario creator Shigeru Miyamoto in his dreams for months after his departure.
Imamura has a lot of respect for Miyamoto – he previously told GamesRadar+ that being able to work under him for so long was the thing he was most proud of from his time at Nintendo. With that in mind, perhaps it's no wonder that Miyamoto's face was seemingly etched into his brain even when the two were no longer working together, as he tells Nintendo Life in an interview.
