We have plenty of games in the meantime guys lol, I donno how you guys burn through them so quickly!
I imagine Pikmin will be a perfect first-half of the year release for them to fill any potential voids; it's not quite a system seller like Mario/Zelda/SSB etc, but it definitely sates any game hungry Nintendo fans for a time.
I personally can't wait... in some ways I think Pikmin is one of Miyamoto's most clever and creative ideas; how you go from creating franchises like Mario and Zelda to then also thinking up a brand new and almost completely unique type of game in the form of Pikmin is beyond me... It really has the appearance of one of those super-clever indie titles, and it really reaffirmed to me that the man has lost none of his passion.
