Shigeru Miyamoto ( Mario , Zelda ) prioritizes game feel ( tactile feedback) over narrative. Jumping in Super Mario Bros. is designed to feel "juicy"—a concept derived from the Shinto notion of kami (spirit) inhabiting natural objects. The controller becomes a torii gate between the player and the digital spirit.
