The highlight of today’s E3, for me at least, was seeing Nintendo legend Shigeru Miyamoto take the stage at the company’s press conference and finally take the wraps off Pikmin 3

The reveal itself was welcome, but what I really liked about it was seeing the dude go crazy with it. For many people, his sword-swinging antics for Twilight Princess are a lifetime highlight of the event, and this is as close as he’s come to that since.
I don’t know why exactly it resonates with people, but it’s probably got something to do with the fact 99% of other developers and executives look like actors on a forced death march during E3. Seeing a man with genuine passions and excitement in his products is both a rare and wonderful thing.
