“What took you so long, Avi Arad? We’ve been waiting the executive producer of the Spider-Man and Iron Man films to get this project going for two years now. Originally slated for 2012, Pac-Man: The Adventure Begins follows the adventures of a high school-aged Pac-Man and pals as they, I dunno, go on wacky adventures?”

You may remember a statement made by Shigeru Miyamoto last year about the possibility of Retro Studios working on Zelda. Miyamoto had said that the series “might be a possible franchise for that collaboration.”

Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma recently offered his own thoughts about partnerships.

Aonuma told IGN:

“Nintendo’s developers will continue to work on a number of different titles, and I think that we will have to rely on outside companies for graphics and other elements that require massive resources. I’m satisfied when the cooperation between Nintendo and other companies becomes something meaningful for both parties.”

Aonuma also told the site that there have been a number of partnerships for the Zelda series over the past decade. Capcom worked on Oracle of Seasons, Oracle of Ages, The Minish Cap, and Four Swords while Grezzo brought the enhanced Ocarina of Time 3D port to the 3DS. Nintendo even collaborated with Xenoblade developer Monolith Soft on Skyward’s Sword’s graphics.
