Forgot to answer the question.
No, actually, I don't agree with Miyamoto's take on new IP. I think given how most people can't really tell if your title is really new or not, and tend to judge based on characters/universe, they would be better off doing what everyone else does with new IP reskins. This is what I think they should do from their perspective as game publishers and devs.
From my perspective as a gamer, however, I don't care about what characters they use as long as they deliver where it counts. I don't care that they used familiar characters in MvDK or Kirby MA.
