If Shigeru Miyamoto had just graduated, chances are, he won't even land a job with Nintendo. He said so himself. This is coming from a man who's way, way up the corporate ladder and is a living legend in the industry. That said, the prolific game lord looks past the prestigious on-paper creds and scouts for talent from those who came from ordinary colleges like himself.
