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

Finally we'll possibly be seeing a new character. 

It's about time Nintendo stopped living in the past.

I fully support Nintendo doing new stuff.

I hope it's a character geared towards adults. 

And wait a minute... Pikmin wasn't the last newbie, Eternal Darkness was released roughly 6 months after Pikmin.  Of course, that's not a new Miyamoto character...

Then again, Geist was also released well after Pikmin, and is also not a Miyamot title.

But hey, I'm all for new franchises.  I'd like to see a few more.

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


Calling it now that we'll know that by September, and no sooner. Possibly might not find out until the platform releases.

 

I'm more interested by the trophies thing. It would be a neat achievement system, similar to PS3 trophies but with a personalized look per trophy.



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

Wii Sports and Fit, etc were NEW CHARACTERS.

Just because you don't like them doesn't mean they weren't new.



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

But they also live in the future!

(So not worth the ten mins to make but did find out new techniques...)

Those are new IPs.

They're not new Characters.

- 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

YES!!!

I can hardly wait.
