Miyamoto interview: Wii U, rejected ideas, Zelda concerts, Four Swords DSi, Skyward Sword, and tons more

To make that title less than 500 words, I had to make it a bit more vague than I had wanted. But I highly suggest reading the interview that Game Informer conducted with Shigeru Miyamoto below, since there’s a significant amount of information. Miyamoto discusses topics including the Wii U, why the time is right for Zelda concerts and Four Swords on DSiWare, some initial concerns about Skyward Sword and how it’s a “very open world”, and a whole lot more.
Zelda: Skyward Sword demo shows Skyloft residents wearing Link’s tunic

The other two characters in the shot above are shown wearing Link’s tunic, albeit in different colors. It’s a bit hard to make out since the image appears briefly in an off-screen video, but you can clearly make out the hats. Nintendo hasn’t said anything about this yet, so it makes you wonder why the other characters are wearing the tunics. It could turn out to be an important story element…
Miyamoto: You’ll get used to the Wii U’s circle pads, more advanced than 3DS one
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 0 comments
One aspect of the Wii U controller that has been a concern for some fans is its analog nubs. It almost seemed as though Nintendo took a step backward by implementing sticks that are more comparable to the 3DS rather than what we’ve seen on the GameCube and Wii.
However, Shigeru Miyamoto is confident that consumers will get used to the circle pads. He says that they “are of a more advanced state than the one we created for Nintendo 3DS” and that they might be slightly more precise.
“The circle pads that we’re using for the Wii U controllers are of a more advanced state than the one we created for Nintendo 3DS. They will perhaps have a bit more precision. The mechanism that allows those circle pads to work is still very different from, for example, the mechanism we used for the control stick on the Gamecube controller. In that sense it’s very tough to compare the precision or how the circle pads will work in that sense, but personally I feel that we’ve gotten them to a point that when you sit down and play with them you get used to them very quickly and they feel very nice.”

Jimmy Fallon’s “Video Game Week” is concluding tonight with a look at The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. Like last year, Reggie Fils-Aime will be on air to show a few minutes of footage. We’ll likely see just a snippet of the E3 demo, but it’s always fun seeing Reggie in action. The show kicks off at 12:30 AM EDT.
