Here’s a surprising shocker – I knew that Dr. Wright in the SNES version of SimCity is based on its creator, Will Wright. I also knew that Will Wright is inspired by Shigeru Miyamoto, the creator of Mario and the Legend of Zelda. I did not know that Dr. Wright is in The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening as ‘Mr. White‘. It appears they both are friends, with a picture of them SimCity back in 1989. Wow.

I actually did know that ^^ *Feels very proud now* Lol.
Funny!
I miss playing Zelda…
lmao, they look so young! Sort of like nerdy teenagers at an arcade :/
Kudos to Rosana! : ) And I agree, they definitely look surprisingly youthful. Almost… cherub-like.
Adding another layer of weirdness to the proceedings, don’t you have to bribe Mr. White or Dr. Wright or Will or whatever you want to call him with a picture of Princess Peach, autographed to boot?
