{{Interview/A|SHIGERU MIYAMOTO|First of all, thank you for completing ''Skyward Sword''. You probably know more than I do when it comes to the game, because the version I played was actually the prototype. The version I played through was more challenging than the version you did.<br><br>The very first ''Legend of Zelda'' game for Wii was ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]''. At the time when we were designing the Wii remote, we were thinking about incorporating the pointer functionality into the new ''Legend of Zelda'' game. I think, to some extent, our efforts worked out. For example: When players were trying to aim at some objects in order to shoot an [[Bow|arrow]], or fire the [[Hookshot|hookshot]], we came up with something really handy. Unfortunately, when the player was required to take a sudden and immediate action, and aim at something with a pointer, it took some time. And [[Link]] could not perfectly reproduce whatever you were doing.<br><br>We really wanted to do that. With the Wii Motion Sensing technology, it became possible. So we were able to incorporate the real sword-fight feature. It's not like you're just fighting by freely waving your sword. [In ''Skyward Sword''], you need to see how your opponent is acting. You're taking into consideration your opponent's movements. It's actually a real sword fight!}}
