Ask Nintendo sound composer Koji Kondo what his favorite game-biz memory is, and the answer comes pretty quickly. "A lot of people remember how Paul McCartney invited Shigeru Miyamoto to a concert when he played in Japan," he said in a Famitsu interview this week, "but Miyamoto actually brought me along to that so he could introduce me as the 'Mario music guy.' Paul and his wife Linda responded by singing the melody to me -- 'Oh, the da da dah da da dah dah guy!' I'd always been a fan of the Beatles, so the fact that they immediately recalled the melody was a really proud moment for me."

Does Evilbore hate the NES Marios?   ???  That's what McCartney is referring to.  8 and 16-bit Nintendo kicked ass.  Then they fell apart.   ;)

If anyone is a good judge of character, it's Paul McCartney.

Fuck, this is like mutual annihilation. Malek currently spinning Eleanor Rigby, tears spilling onto a newly bought Wii.

sounds like McCartney is actually a fan of Koji Kondo; Miyamoto just rode the coattails of his talented coworker into having a Beatles fanboy moment

I agree with Patel. McCartney no sold Miyamoto and praised the music guy.

I remember reading in an interview somewhere that McCartney visited the Nintendo offices to personally thank Miyamoto because his kid apparently loves Mario.
