When it comes to making things work together that probably shouldn't, Takaya Imamura is an expert. The ex-Nintendo legend combined anthropomorphic animals with fighter pilot dogfights in space for Star Fox, drenched Link in existential dread as art director for The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, and riffed on Mario Kart with more high-speed violence in F-Zero. His latest game, Omega 6 The Triangle Stars, is an interactive visual novel with a combat system that largely draws on rock, paper, scissors.
Predicting where Imamura's ideas will take him next is a fruitless endeavor – unless you ask the man himself. During a chat to discuss Omega 6, I asked who his dream collaboration would be for whatever comes next - and in typical fashion, his hypothetical project didn't disappoint.
"To tell the truth, I really really like The Witcher 3," shared Imamura. "I don't know whether we'd get on, but I'd love to work with CD Projekt Red on something. I'd love to do a Star Wars game with them."
