DK: Jungle Beat was an under appreciated work of genius, and Mario Galaxy is better than Mario 64 in my opinion. I'd love to see what he's working on next. Koizumi has a lot of potential.

The company might seem different but it isn't like it will just kill over if he leaves. No company puts all their eggs in one basket.

I'm not saying Takahashi and Saga aren't talented, but Honne is so much more talented and creative and has so much more potential!

He has the potential to even surpass him, and this has been proven in his work. Brawl definately had more hype than any Miyamoto game in a long, long time...

He seems to be the type to do his own thing, hence his creation of Sora.<br><br>I guess only time will tell, all I want is for someone to make first party games how they used to be, like on the N64.

I too have been keeping an eye on Monolith. I've been extremely curious to see what they'll whip up (er, other than Soma Bringer) since being absorbed into the Big N. It seemed (and still seems) an unusual move; I wouldn't have imagined Nintendo to be an ideal publisher, given the Takahashi Two's past resume, but I guess after their experiences with the Little N (amco), anything's possible. I wouldn't consider them potential successors for Miyamoto; right now, I see them as part of a slowly rising trend of auteurs in games, which of course many familiar faces in the industry are, but it's a matter of degrees. <br><br>Either way, it's an eclectic bunch here. It'll be interesting to see what they come up with when they're given a little more say. Great list, Ishaan. I too have been keeping an eye on Monolith.
