The full interview is included in the link and has some other interesting points. Another highlight to me: According to Reggie here (granting memory and double translation issues), Miyamoto seemed to object to including Wii Sports as a pack in game, or even the idea of 'giving away content for free'. Reggie was able to say when he bought a SNES Super Mario [World] came with it.
I wonder if that wasn't done in Japan, and Miyamoto was oblivious this whole time.
