We shared iJustine’s new interview with Shigeru Miyamoto a short while ago, but I figured this was worth a separate post. When we get comments about Zelda Wii U, they’re certainly worth paying the extra attention to.

Here’s the Q&A about the new game:

You showed the Zelda trailer and that’s such a huge world. How is that going to be for you guys to approach as far as gameplay and story, because it’s such a huge world.

With Zelda games, what we’ve always done is try to make them where you enter this big world of Hyrule and there’s a lot to explore and discover, but because of the hardware limitations, what we’ve had to do is segment off each area and piece those segments together in a way that make them feel like a big world. Now, with the hardware capabilities of Wii U, we first started by saying if we can take an entire world the size of the world from Twilight Princess, and make that the size of one of the areas in the game.

Do you see that as a game where people will go to complete a certain mission and they end up doing fifty things along the way?

Yeah, there may even be times where you forget what your goal is, because you are doing other things on the side. There may be times where you go in to one big one long dungeon, or you’re headed for a dungeon and doing other things on the side. What we’re trying to do is design it in a way where you don’t have to play it for a super long time, but more matched to today’s lifestyle where you can think for a little bit, and say “maybe I just want to play for a little bit today and do this one thing.” and get that thing done, then take a break.

Steel Divers: Sub Wars director Takaya Imamura explained why the team decided to revert things back to how they were previously in a Miiverse post. Here’s what he shared:

Earlier this month, Black Forest Games released a Dream Rush multiplayer mode for Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams on PC. The mode allows up to four players to compete race each other. It has yet to hit consoles – including Wii U – though this could change in the future. Black Forest Games co-founder Adrian Goersch told RedBull in an interview that Dream Rush could make its way to additional platforms “if it is received well by the community.”

Goersch briefly touched on the studio’s new Giana Sisters game as well. It was previously said that the title could drop in late 2015 or early 2016, but the project now seems targeted for the latter timeframe.
