miyamoto made several games for the nintendo 64. most of these games were from his previous franchises. his first game on the nintendo 64 was "super mario 64". he was the main director. in developing the game, he started with character design and the camera system. miyamoto and the other designers were unsure of what the game should be like. it took months to decide on a good camera view and layout. the first idea used a fixed path. this would have been similar to an isometric-type game.they decided on a free-roaming 3d design. he changed the design of the nintendo 64 controller to fit with that of "super mario 64".
