Awhile back, Insomniac Games said that it was flattered over the fact that Mario Galaxy had spherical worlds inspired by that of Ratchet and Clank.

In an interview with the UK’s Official Nintendo Magazine, legendary game designer Shigeru Miyamoto responded to Insomniac’s rather presumptuous statement, admitting that he had never heard of Ratchet and Clank.

It’s not an idea we got from anywhere else. I’m sorry but I have to admit that I’ve never seen the game in question. Is it a PC game?

Ouch. Surprised he’s never heard of the game. Then again, it’s Miyamoto. The guy lives and breathes Nintendo.
