While Nintendo’s Digital Event @ E3 was undeniably shaky, one thing that most viewers could agree on was that the Jim Henson performance was funny, adorable, and flat-out awesome. However, how did this idea come to be? What was Miyamoto’s first reaction when seeing the puppet version of himself? All questions are answered in Nintendo’s YouTube video below which operates as a part-interview, part-tour of Jim Henson Studios.
Miyamoto Meets Puppet Miyamoto: The Movie

If only the Digital Event was more exciting. Those puppets were the most entertaining part of the whole show. Such a shame.
It wasn’t even that the games were lame (I had a blast watching the Treehouse) but it was that they didn’t show them off. They spent WAY too much time on those dev things. They were interesting, but not E3 worthy. Next E3 should be great, can’t wait to see the NX in motion.
Yeah, I loved what I saw in the TreeHouse Live segments. The Dev Notes were interesting but they needed to be accompanied with some real game info and excitement. Wish more people saw the rest of Nintendo’s E3, though i understand their presentation should be far better.
Was that a real tiger or a stuffed one? I didn’t look stuffed at all…
Next year should be clay-mation.
I’d live for aardman to do that, it would be amazing
Same here, loved the Wallace and Grommit films.
Yea! Wallace and Grommit was the best!
Yarn man! Yarn!
Ooh I’m getting exited with all the possibilities! Is it to early to say that MY BODY IS SO STINKING READY!!
Not at all! I feel a little ready myself. lol
Nintendo 4 evaaaaa!
Brian Henson is slowly turning into his father. But who wouldn’t be Jim Henson if they could?
Now THIS is the kind of content I came here to see!
That electronic puppet controller thing at the end probably just expired Myamoto’s new game, or how he wants project giant robot to feel
Shit like this makes me quietly get ready to save up money and go buy a PS4 and quit Nintendo. I see myself getting shit from them this year, as the system’s games are as fucking dead as the walking.
how are you not banned yet?
