A series called 'Outrageous Fortune' is a series of programs that takes a gander at companies that own a lotta cash to splash! The show is hosted by Libby Potter (Celebdaq! ^_^), and she talks to such Nintendo All-stars who comment and are seen throughout the program, such as former Tendo President Hiroshi Yamauchi's daughter Yoko and son-in-law Minoru Arakawa in their mansion in Hawaii (Nintendo of America), aswell as the one and only Shigeru Miyamoto!
Get this, Shigeru Miyamoto, is paid on a salary basis and continues to cycle to work and, even more bizarrely, has forfeited his entitlement to game royalties! You learn something new everyday! There's also a bit on how Nintendo products cause epileptic seizures...hmmmm...interesting!
The show goes out on BBC 3 Monday 19th April in the UK @ 9pm (BST), and will be repeated further on the channel! Everyone add it to your calendars...or Sky Digital Personal Planners A.S.A.P! I know i will, and i'll set 20 VCRs to record it aswell just incase!
