I think plenty of games - from 'Thief' to 'Zelda' - have shown that sneaking around can be fun.

People perceive games as being for kids, and I think that perception is going to change. Time is going to take care of that. I mean, we've already won. Games have won; it's inevitable.

I think there's always room for more innovation and new things.

I gotta do what I think is right, and if enough people like it, I'm a winner. And if they don't, I'll open a bookstore.

I said to myself as Junction Point embarked on the Epic Mickey journey that, worst case, we'd be 'a footnote in Disney history.' Looking back on it, I think we did far better than that.

On the small scale, 'Ico,' I think, actually delivered a small new thing: holding a character's hand and really feeling like your job is to rescue this person, and establishing a personal connection.
