Nintendo Advised “Muscular” Pikachu Would Sell in America

We’re glad Nintendo stuck to its guns. In an interview from an article Friday on Crave’s sister site Destructoid, Satoru Iwata, president and CEO of Nintendo, says they were advised to make Pikachu more muscular to appeal to Americans.

Iwata said Nintendo rarely gives in to the pressure to conform. Good news, say Pokemon fans.
