Forums - Nintendo - Nintendo Shareholder meeting: Miyamoto wants a new character and more

- Miyamoto is interested in getting a new Pikmin out quickly.
- Miyamoto feels it's time for him to create a new character, since it's been 10 years since Pikmin
- Nintendo is considering adding a playtime feature to the 3DS, much like the one on Wii
- Nintendo has no plans for a theme park, but if they did do one, it would be different from the traditional theme parks that exist now
- Miyamoto has taken an interest in swimming
- Miyamoto is a a member of a youth guidance organization, and spends a lot of time with children
- These statements were by Miyamoto when he was asked about what games he is currently working on
- Nintendo was thinking about the 3DS 6 years ago
- Nintendo is always thinking of new hardware, including successor to 3DS
- the 3DS was demoed at this event, with 50 to 100 Nintendo employees showing off the platform
- the 3DS demo shown featured flowing water, and a wine glass, all in 3D

- the demo also showed a bunch of Mario figures, as well as a poster that featured trophies similar to Smash Bros. trophies
- viewers could change the camera angel with the slide pad or dpad
- there was also a Mario sequence, Yoshi sequence, Pikmin sequence and a Twilight Princess sequence
- this demo video sounds much like the one shown at E3
- on the Ocarina of Time 3DS, and it if will feature visuals closer to Twilight Princess: "We can't share details, but it does have expressive capabilities. This is because the capabilities are of course higher."

Looking forward to seeing what he comes up with.  Also, yay for Pikmin!



It is about time they let Miyamato make something new.

I wonder what he might make next, but didn't he somewhat help with the idea of Nintendogs?

Have they talked about the 3DS online capabilties yet?  More specifically, do we get to create a unique username of our choosing?


The only thing I remember hearing is from an Interview with a Rep from EA. He may have been talking about the features of the 3DS or EA's own online system that they will use with the 3DS.

Here is the link to the video:

If Nintendo is successful at the moment, it’s because they are good, and I cannot blame them for that. What we should do is try to be just as good.----Laurent Benadiba

 

Being a stock holder I request the new character to be a standing Platypus with coke bottle glasses, buck teeth, and a tie.

A new character Hmmmm. I'm not really sure if he means a new character for Pikmin or a new series but I'm guessing (and hoping for) the latter.



He did not only hint at a new character, but told in the next article that it would be for next year!
