Here’s hoping he’ll add many more years of his love for video games to his life! This man has touched so many lives without even knowing. He sure has influenced me during my childhood and I continue to enjoy many of his games to this day. He’s probably the biggest living legend in the videogame industry.

I keep forgetting I share a birthday with this legend

Super Mario World is still one of my favorite games. Such a legend!

If you wanna feel old, he’s the same age as the woulda been 70 Randy Savage…

Great guy, he made my childhood worth living.

Damn. For some reason I thought he was in his mid-80s. It feels like he’s been around for a thousand years.
Here’s to a thousand more!

To ease you guys, Spanish and Japanese people are known to live the longest, he’ll most likely retire in 5-10 years and live another 20 peacefully

Why has nobody ever made a biopic about this guy? I’d watch that movie in a heartbeat.

I remember last year everybody said nice

I wish he would do something like Masahiro Sakurai and get some of his insight into Nintendo and games! These guys are getting older and I worry the knowledge and stores that could be lost.

He’s 70?! Holy shit, he looks good! Best birthday wishes to him.

Dude is 70? Wow

My heart when I refreshed reddit too quickly and saw his portrait but didn’t get to read the title. Thought he had passed. Happy Birthday Miyamoto!

Miyamoto has probably contributed more to human entertainment than any other individual in history. Just in terms of number of people and total hours spent playing his games.

I might not always agree with the man, but good lord! He is not just an icon in gaming. He is THE icon of gaming. Glad he’s still with us! Happy birthday Miamoto san!

70??
He looks like he’s 50 if I was being rude. Dude genuinely looks like he’s in his forties.
Couldn’t wish it to a better dude.

Why did I think he was older? Anyway, happy birthday to the legend

Literally a legend. Was and is

This may just be my favorite man on the planet outside my immediate family. The amount of joy that LoZ has brought me over the years, and the excitement I still feel for new Mario/Zelda games is astonishing. Thank you, and happy birthday!

Shigeru Miyamoto has a beautiful heart and soul.
Happy Birthday!!

I hope that whoever his successor is can continue his vision. The gaming world wouldn’t be the same without quality Mario and Zelda games. It’s his vision that helps make them the industry cornerstones that they are.
Happy Birthday, legend!

Not only he was pivotal in creating The Legend of Zelda, but he also encouraged a young Satoshi Tajiri to pitch his “Pocket Monsters” idea to Nintendo. Miyamoto is directly responsible for creating two of the most important moments of my entire life.
Thank you, sir. Happy birthday <3.

Wow, 70 years old. What a life.

I always found it mildly interesting my wife shares her birthday with Miyamoto and I with Hideo Kojima.

This is how you do this post correctly instead of giving a bunch on Nintendo fans a heart attack like that other guy today

Happy birthday to the GOAT 🐐
he looks like someone in his early 40s not 70
DaddysFriend
Wow this man is amazing it’s a shame he’s 70 because any game he makes is unbelievable and his love for making games means that he always makes complete games

I think we need to talk about how sick that tire is and also how I may get one and who designed it
