Miyamoto looks quite funny in this photo

Yes, this is a completely random post, but Miyamoto’s face just looks too funny for me to pass up on sharing the photo with you guys! The man on the left is Takashi Tezuka, who has worked on a ton of titles for Nintendo.

Giving Nintendo a voice

Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Features, General Nintendo | 0 comments

Nintendo is one for the silent protagonist. With the exception of the Star Fox games, all of Nintendo’s main characters have never spoken. That has started to change, though. In Metroid: Other M, the developers gave Samus a voice. Most fans didn’t like what she had to say, or the fact that she was speaking at all. Others – such as myself – saw it as a step in the right direction. Unfortunately, we are few and far between.

The photo is blurry, but Shigeru Miyamoto is definitely at Nintendo World. I don’t think anyone should be surprised by that, though!

Reggie says there are Wii games coming this year “that need to be seen to be believed”

Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments

Remember the press email Nintendo sent out earlier this week boasting about Wii/DS sales figures for 2010? Well, a quote from Reggie Fils-Aime was buried inside, and may be of interest to Nintendo fans. Nintendo Everything reader Chauncey pointed out the following information to us…

“When we look ahead to 2011, we see new portable technology and more great Wii games that need to be seen to be believed.”

Of course, this quote shouldn’t come as a huge surprise. Nintendo is always creating new titles for their systems. We may know of one project in the works, though. Last June, Shigeru Miyamoto teased that a game featuring a new Nintendo character could be released this year.
