Shigeru Miyamoto and Satoru Iwata Celebrate the Year of Luigi

Here's something to brighten up those middle-of-the-week blues. Nintendo has released a clip from its recent Japanese Nintendo Direct 3DS broadcast which demonstrates the kind of office banter that Satoru Iwata and Shigeru Miyamoto must get up to.

It's the Year of Luigi, you see, so Miyamoto has come out of hiding to harass Iwata with his very own Poltergust (from Luigi's Mansion). Iwata himself is unfazed at first, staunch in his defiance against such vacuuming antics. He's also wearing a Luigi hat. And he gets Miyamoto to wear one too.

Watch the brief clip below. If you fancy a bit more meat, there's a Nintendo Direct that you can watch right here.
