Australia, July 30, 2007 - According to a recent interview with Shigeru Miyamoto, Dean Takahashi of the Mercury News reports that Nintendo may be on the verge of revealing a new franchise, along the lines of how they launched Pikmin as a significant new game series for the company.
The telling quote: "Maybe next year sometime, we may have new characters in the same way we came up with Pikmin when we introduced the GameCube." It's not the most unlikely of revelations, but it's nice to hear he's been scribbling away on the old sketchpad.
Miyamoto-san helped develop Wii Fit, but surely he's been tinkering on the side with new, innovative concepts for more traditional games. Pikmin was grand, so we're already drooling at the prospect of a new Miyamoto-steered gaming experience. Roll on, 2008.
