On the Japanese Wii site, Nintendo has been posting "Creator's Voice" interviews for certain games—Super Mario Galaxy among them. In this particular interview, translated by Jim Ursetto, Yoshiaki Koizumi (Galaxy director with EAD Tokyo) delivers a unique spin on the otherwise-tired tea-table-upending habits of Shigeru Miyamoto:
Iwata Asks: Super Mario Galaxy
Iwata: Now that you've worked with Miyamoto for a long time on Super Mario Galaxy, I bet you felt there were times you had finished when you hadn't.
Koizumi: Indeed, many times. It was I who "upended the table", though. Miyamoto would actually ask "Why did you overturn it? It was perfectly fine as it was." and then set the table once again.
Iwata: Shigeru Miyamoto, tidier of tables.
