Yeah, normally when Miyamoto says he has a good idea for a game it still takes years to develop. (Pikmin 3 took 9)

I can't imagine how long it will take if he doesn't want to work on a lower selling series...it is basically dead.

pikmin 3 didn't start development in 2004.


Correct. It didn't actually enter development until 2009-2010, to my knowledge. Not REAL development, before that it was just conceptual stage stuff. And even then, it had a super-small team working on it until last year, as far as I know.  And people need to keep in mind, also, that it took extra time for them to upscale it from Wii hardware to HD Wii U hardware, which basically meant redoing everything, not merely giving things a higher resolution.
