Nintendo legend Shigeru Miyamoto makes history as the first video game developer awarded Japan's prestigious Order of Culture. The 73-year-old creator behind Super Mario, The Legend of Zelda, and Pikmin will be presented with the award by Emperor Naruhito at the Imperial Palace in Tokyo on November 3, Japan's Culture Day. We look back at Miyamoto's foundational career from his 1977 apprenticeship at Nintendo to his recent work producing blockbuster animated feature films with Illumination.
