It’s a remnant of Gunpei Yokoi’s philosophy: lateral thinking with withered technology. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gunpei_Yokoi

I find it refreshing that Nintendo has such strong opinions about these types of things, even when it’s to their detriment.

This philosophy is a part of why their products always feel like “toys” and inspire all the feelings that come along with that.
