Last night, a report released by Nikkei said that a new Mario game would be hitting the Wii later this year. But could that be Shigeru Miyamoto’s big project to be unveiled at E3? On a recent episode of X-Play, Director of Gaming Editorial on G4TV.com, Billy Berghammer said that “something’s going on with” Miyamoto and that he is going to be interviewed during the show. That certainly makes it seem as though something important will be shared at E3.
“…The only other thing I will say though, is Miyamoto is going to be announcing something. We’re meeting with them during the show for an interview so I’m going to pretty much speculate that something’s going on with him. Either Mario or Zelda. Or he could be talking about the next Pikmin game which is also rumored…I still think there’s going to be a new Zelda.”
