Forums - Nintendo - Miyamoto talks about Pikmin 3

Nintendo has so many teams. I don't understand what everyone is working on when we have so few announced projects. Some teams haven't delivered games in years and we're still in the dark about their next endeavors. Is there going to be some giant purge of titles one day, because if all the teams are really still there and working, then it's all going to have to come out eventually.

I'm with you, what the hell are so many teams doing?

@onyx I think nintendo is showing over 10-12 of their own games in development on the floor between ds and wii. I don't see how your statement makes any sense. I think most of the teams games we do know about even if we don't know the team behind it.

If you name me the titles, I'll do the research myself and bring it back to the thread.

Meh. I just hope they dont push Pikmin 3 as a big title. Do something a bit lighter than Punch-Out advertising because its just not as great of a series as most people make it out to be.



We'll no doubt see more announcements and I bet Nnintendo have one or two games for the latter half of the year they haven't showm.. I'm disappointed that HAL labs next game wasn't shown and I expected more from NST seeing as they've been silent for 3 years.. Maybe they have more on the back burner too..

Great announcements though!

Well, doesnt surprise me, there are more mainstream titles that a larger install base wants. Mario, Zelda are some of those more mainstream games.

The next big purge will be 2010. SMG2, Metroid, Zelda (likely), Pikmin (likely), Monado (Monolith Soft's next game), possibly a new FE or Paper Mario. Maybe even Retro's next game.

2010 will be insane.

I have that unsettling feeling that we won't see Zelda next year.. Q1 looks quite full with Endless Ocean, Sin & Punishment and a few other small titles and then Q2 we should be seeing Mario Galaxy 2 (Miyamoto said it'll be finished by years end but they want to hold it back due to NSMBWii)

I might do some more research in regards to this.. I'm wondering if the Mario Kart team are working on Pikmin 3.. Perhaps Nintendo shifted resources to NSMBWii so it'd be ready by years end and so Pikmin 3 took a hit..

I mean if we get: 

Sin & Punishment 2

Endless Ocean 2: Beautiful Ocean

Span Smasher

Line Attack Heroes

Super Mario Galaxy 2

Metroid: Other M

Monado

Pikmin 3

Zelda Wii

Retro Studios Next Title

and with titles like Paper Mario and FE being possible.. I don't know.. It seems too good to be true really..

That is just some of the wii games.  ALso throw in Monado: Beginning of the World (Monolithsoft), Spectrobes, You Me and the Cubes, Picturebook games, and the few wii titles that are still japan exclusive.

They have a ton of DS games in development (mostly related to dsi) and some important ip's like Golden Sun ds, Mario and Luigi 3 (although just needs localisation) and w/e else.



well NST is doing mario vs donkey kong DSiware so there obvfiosuly still active.EAD 1 game will be out next year and that hasnt been announced yet. pikmin 3 wont be until 2011 cos EAD 4 is only really big enough to make one game at a time and its been doing NSMB and the play on wii games. retro seems to have been working on a zelda title bt that got cancelled so theve only had a year on their new game.

where the hell was pilotwings!

I'm sure Pikmin is moving along steadily. I'm happy that we got this stuff instead of Pikmin for now, honestly.
