Недавно вышла статья на eurogamer о создании StarFox (ссылка). Несколько интересных вещей:

"The end came when we pitched to do a 3D platform game, the likes of which had never been done before. We mocked up a prototype using Yoshi. It was essentially the world's first 3D platform game and was obviously a big risk - Nintendo had never let an outside company use their characters before, and weren't about to, either. This is the moment the deal fell apart. We later made that game into Croc: Legend of the Gobbos for the PlayStation, Saturn and PC, which became our biggest ever game in terms of sales and also in royalties, since we owned the IP."
"Miyamoto-san went on to make Mario 64, which had the look and feel of our Yoshi game - but with the Mario character, of course - and beat Croc to market by around a year," San says. "Miyamoto-san came up to me at a show afterwards and apologised for not doing the Yoshi game with us and thanked us for the idea to do a 3D platform game. He also said that we would make enough royalties from our existing deal to make up for it. That felt hollow to me, as I'm of the opinion that Nintendo ended our agreement without fully realising it. They canned Star Fox 2 even though it was finished and used much of our code in Star Fox 64 without paying us a penny.”

Идея Mario 64 взята у Argonaut software с прототипом игры Yoshi.
В Mario 64 на Nintendo DS сначала играете за Yoshi. Наверно вспомнили, откуда пошла игра и решили немного бонусов прилепить.

В интересных статьях 01net, в которых впервые был упомянут Circle Pad для 3DS, один из сотрудников организации рассказывал о печальном менталитете предприятия.

Since its inception, Nintendo has always attracted him to the finest of game designers.  No other publisher and manufacturer had both the prestige and the resources needed to do a multitude of external teams to develop innovative ideas for game design and a host of game prototypes work.
Asked what she meant by this "cumbersome mythology," our source gave us two fairly recent examples.  The concept of Pikmin, and would be directly inspired by a real-time simulation (RTS) presented to the firm by a creator of years before the release of the game's official title history (Miyamoto had the idea in observing the creatures in his garden) and would find a clever marketing.

Pikmin придумал не Miyamoto сидя в саду, а дизайнер который потом ушел из компании и сделал Army Corps of Hell на PSVita насколько я помню.

Another example is Mario Galaxy.  According to our source, three successive drafts of what was then called "Mario 128" have been developed internally, but unsatisfactory.  Nintendo would have rummaged through his drawers to extract a promising prototype designed by a subcontractor.  Quickly revised sauce Mario, it would become the Mario Galaxy that we all love.  This practice, as described by our current source, is nothing new.  The famous and revered Super Mario Bros. 2 (Super Mario USA) was originally a completely independent way, although designed by Miyamoto: Yume Kojo: Doki Doki Panic, released in 1987 for the Famicom Disk System (FDS).

Mario 128 так и не вышел, потому что 3 внутренних прототипа были неудовлетворительными. Nintendo посмотрела прототипы подрядчиков и нашла многообещающий прототип, ставший Super Mario Galaxy.
