'Remembering the time I met Shigeru Miyamoto on the Tube as a teenager' | AndyPlaytonic

owner who fancied their ability to print a business card and purchase an oversized shirt, it was definitely worth a punt trying to get in .

The experience profoundly affected my desire to pursue a journalism degree and cover games professionally. But little did I know, the journey home would be even more impactful. Luckily London Olympia operates on a sort of offshoot Tube line which requires a change of trains after just a few stops. After several minutes of gawping at Miyamoto-san, we were soon booted from the carriage and onto the platform where – incredibly – it was virtually only me and the Zelda designer left waiting for the next Underground service.

Noticing my attention , Mr Miyamoto asked if I’d been to the show. I don’t remember what I said, but I seized the opportunity to have him scribble on the only thing I had on hand at the time, and in my excitement smudged it a bit.At this point, I was simply satisfied to have met the man and minted the world’s most valuable fake press pass.

AndyPlaytonic This is great. I’ve never come across any of these guys. My wife held the door open for Reggie at the Nintendo Store in NYC while she was in town working a press tour for her last job so a second hand story is as close as I come.

AndyPlaytonic Amazing story Andy! Thanks for sharing!
