Interesting stuff. It’s been said before that Miyamoto held SimCity and Wright in high regard. What stood out to me was the book author’s notion that Wright was sort of “apprenticed” to Miyamoto, and that influenced SimCity 2000 to some extent.
I couldn’t really say, one way or the other, but looking back, SimCity on the Super Nintendo was pretty charming with its little extra touches, and maybe that played a part in injecting more personality into 2000.
