Home > Aonuma Made Wooden Mechanic Dolls?!?
Well, it seems that Aonuma had a hobby of making wooden dolls.
"At college, I was making wooden dolls. Not simple wooden dolls, but mechanical dolls, ones that were able to play musical instruments, able to dance. I loved people seeing them and being surprised, watching them wonder how these kind of things could be done, what kind of gimmicks were inside. I did an interview , and had my first encounter with [Nintendo's chief developer] Shigeru Miyamoto, who happened to love the dolls I brought. He said: 'If you want to make things like that, Nintendo might be a good place for you to work.' So that's how I decided to work for the company." - Eiji Aonuma
