Comment

Thank you very much for this award. This is the fifth work in the Zelda series and we have already sold over 5 million copies worldwide. "We (the six members of the development team) are all very creative!" "In the world of interactive design you must continually experimentand try new things!" These two themes gave us encouragement throughout the entire project. We are very happy to receive this award, at the same time, there are places where we feel we could have done better and we are ready to get to work on our next project.

Reason for Award

This work is by the artist who has pioneered a new frontier for the video game, starting with "Super Mario 64", a work that breaks new ground in three-dimensional spatial expression. The new interface attempted in this work is worthy of special praise for the impact that it will have, not only on video games, but also modern visual expression.
