“One of the main reasons why we’re back on Wii is because of the controller. When we released the first one on Wii, you had this feeling just finished with moving the controller; it was really good. So, if we released it on Xbox 360, for example, we’d have to rethink this feeling. I wanted to keep the game’s controller gimmick, so that’s why the fighting was more fitting on Wii, rather than on other platforms.” – Suda51

When titles in the Mario and Zelda series are being developed, one can bet that Shigeru Miyamoto oversees a great deal of the production process each day. However, that can’t be said about every Nintendo title. Miyamoto has stated that sometime he might only check in on a product “once a week or even once a month.”

“Our department has so many people working on different projects. Some titles I’m deeply involved in and others I’m not so deeply involved in. Sometimes there is software I check on just once a week or even once a month. But I’m always getting reports on how games are going, then I make comments or decide to change aspects of the game. When games are nearing completion I usually get more deeply involved.”

You might also be interested to know that Miyamoto regularly eats lunch with Satoru Iwata, swims at least once a week, and believe it or not, Miyamoto is often late to work.

“Chinatown Wars is much bigger than anything we have ever done before [in terms of scope]: more odd jobs, deeper missions, and more moments of over-the-top action. We have a huge interaction with the Rockstar Social Club, a massive [narcotics trafficking] game that would stand alone on its own. The list goes on and on; this thing is huge. We are very proud of all of the PSP games we have made, especially the two GTA games, but this game is far bigger.” – Rockstar Leeds president Gordon Hall

Rockstar Leeds definitely seems to be a capable of replicating the GTA experience on the DS, even though this is their first experience with the system. Still, I’m a bit shocked that Mr. Hall has stated that Chinatown Wars is bigger than the company’s work on the PSP titles.

Shigeru Miyamoto told the Official Nintendo Magazine last week that the next Zelda title might not be shown at E3. So, does it seem plausible that the title Miyamoto was referring to will release in 2009? According to Lazard Capital Markets’ Colin Sebastian, yes. Sebastian believes that not only will a new Zelda game release in 2009, but Princess Peach will show her face in a new title as well. The Princess Peach prediction seems more likely to release next year than Zelda, but it does appear to be very random that Sebastian would even begin discussing Princess Peach at all.
