'''Shigeru Miyamoto''' (Japanese: 宮本 茂) is the creator of such legendary [[Nintendo]] video game franchises as ''Mario'', ''Zelda'' and ''Star Fox'', as well as a colleague of [[Reggie Fils-Aimé]]. Shigeru has been in contact with [[Chris]] for some time regarding the possibility of making a [[Sonichu]] game, despite Chris's constant mispronunciation of his name. Chris also assumes that Miyamoto has absolute power in, not just Nintendo, but the entire game industry.

==Early contact==
On 15 [[August 2008]], Chris asked his fanbase to bug Nintendo and Sega to make a Sonichu game.<ref>[[Captain's Log, Stardate August 15th, 2008]]</ref>
A troll, using a e-mail spoofer (hence the awkward backslashes), sent this e-mail to Chris:
<div style="border:1px dotted #4682B4;padding:5px; background-color:#F0F8FF">
Dear Chris Chandler, <br/>
Good evening. My name is Shigeru Miyamoto. Perhaps you\'ve heard of me. If you haven\'t, then allow me to introduce myself. I am the general manager of Nintendo and creator of Mario, Zelda, and countless other franchises.
I normally do not talk directly to fans in this matter as I am a very busy man. However, over the past few months, I have received countless amounts of emails from your fans stating that you wish for my company and Sega to create a game based on your fan character.
I am sorry to say this but I cannot and will not allow this to happen. There are several problems with your proposal, the first of wich is the simple fact that your character is NOT original. You can not make a game by combining two characters from opposing companies and then call it a new game. Things do not work this way.
Second of all, I have read your comics and they would not make a good concept for a game. It seems as though your comics are all about you and your personal problems.
You seem to have created a sort of alternate reality based around you and you only. You must understand one thing if you want to make a game. Video games are a medium where you must think of what other people want. Nobody wants to play a game where it\'s all about you and you only. Nobody wants to play a game about a person\'s inner thoughts and their problems with the world. People have problems of their own. People play games to escape from the problems of the real world, into a reality that they can feel a part of. Your game idea doesn\'t provide that. It only focuses on you and the things that bother you.
Third, I have already spoken with the president of Sega and he even thought that  it was proposturous. Not only that, the amount of cooperation it wiould talk to make such a game would never work in reality. Even if we did merge Pikachu and Sonic, who would take the credit for it? Sega would lose the character that basically  is their identity and Nintendo would end up with a character that quite frankley just isn\'t an original or new idea.
I\'m  sorry but we can\'t do this and we outright refuse to have any part in your game idea proposal. Please stop sending us emails about this as it is simply not possible or probable for us to even entertain such an idea.
Please don\'t take this too hard on yourself. Maybe someday you can come up with an original idea and we can work togehter [sic]. But right now, you don\'t seem to have anything that can work as a video game. I wish you luck in your future endevours and I hope you have a nice day.
Sincerely,
Shigery Miyamoto
General Manager, Nintendo Company Ltd. </div>
Chris shortly afterward posted this facepalm inducing bit on [[Sonichu.net]]:
{{quote|
The Big Brain behind Super Mario, Zelda and other Popular Nintendo characters and games, Shigeru Miyamoto, sent me an e-mail with his response to the Sonichu Game Project. He says Nay, but I bet's he could be holding out on us, or something. So, I say this unto you, my loyal fans, continue with the e-mails and Forum Talks with Nintendo and SEGA of America or Japan. They are missing out on a REAL Profitable thing they can work with me on and cash in handsomely. I sent a detailed reply, but it came back to me in a "Mailer Daemon" message, so I've taken the liberty of printing a copy of the original message, and a copy of my reply that I will send to Nintendo of America for them to transfer to Mr. Miyamoto himself. Give them time and messages.}}
This is an early example of Chris's delusional thinking, flat out ignoring the unpleasant truth that his game idea sucks. He then demanded that any contact from Nintendo be written or via phone. However, as always, Chris never learns.

[[Image:Cwcmail.png|thumb||right|Christian discussing his censorship because of Miyamoto's intervention.]]
In January 2009, Chris started to receive e-mails from Shigeru Miyamoto. Despite his suspicions from his last encounter, since Miyamoto was informing Chris that he was interested in meeting Chris to talk about creating a Sonichu game (read: something that Chris wants to hear, as opposed to the other Miyamoto e-mail), Chris magically forgot about in person, phone, or snail mail contact and immediately fell for it. The result? The Miyamoto Saga.
==Trolled==
Chris eventually [[Captain's Log, Stardate February 10th, 2009|received an official response from Nintendo]], and only then did it become clear to Chris that he had, yet again, been the victim of slanderous [[trolls]]. In true Chris style, he proclaimed victory.
