Shigeru Miyamoto was one of the first Nintendo employees to invent one of the most popular video games. He created Super Mario Bros. in the mid-1980's. He moved on to the Donkey Kong series and later made rivals with fellow Nintendo employee, Satoshi Tajiri, the creator of Pokémon. Mario and Pokémon rivaled each other for many years until Shigeru and Satoshi eventually decided to work together. Their rivalry, however, had an effect on both of their franchises.
Shigeru Miyamoto's Mario series has, in the past, rivaled the Sonic the Hedgehog series, but the two have since collaborated. The competition between the two franchises is reflected upon in games such as Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games.
