Wired editor Chris Kohler is sticking by his famed interview in which Shigeru Miyamoto mentioned that he’s retiring. Nintendo says that Miyamoto’s comments must have been misinterpreted as his native language is Japanese, but Kohler says he’s ‘absolutely’ standing by the interview that was published as the translator was Nintendo’s own.
Wow thats stupid!

He is retiring. He’s tired of being so high on the ladder. He just wants to do what he loves. Make games, not watch others make them with him having to babysit them.

That isn’t retiring. Retiring is stopping completely, leaving the company and going home to put your feet up and start fishing or playing bingo with all the other old folk.
So no matter if he’s scaling back his role, it’s not retirement until he walks away completely.

I hope that’s the case where he gets to actually MAKE games again rather than oversee them.

Nobody cares, Wired! Even if he is stepping down from his current position, he’s still going to be at Nintendo, making games.

The editor sticking to his story so his website gets more hits and he gets more publicity. As the saying goes: bad publicity is good publicity.
As for shigsy retiring: not happening anytime soon

Sounds like he screwed up a little by saying that Miyamoto was retiring, but he doesn’t want to admit that he was wrong about a legendary man.

I am on Nintendo’s side. I highly doubt they would be lying after saying Miyamoto isn’t retiring. Why would you want him to stop so soon anyway when there is still some time left?
