Spanish website elmundo.es conducted an interview with Shigeru Miyamoto at the Louvre Museum. Miyamoto spoke about his retirement, expressed interest in returning to the Wii Music idea, and apparently said that Nintendo will be showing off a new Mario game for Wii U at E3 2012.

I say apparently because the article doesn’t contain a direct quote from Miyamoto about a Wii U Mario title. The writeup does state, however, that “Nintendo will present a new Super Mario for this platform, which will combine the TV screen with the controller.”

elmundo’s article mentions the following points:

– Nintendo is making new types of games as traditional types are now being released on iPhone/Android
– Miyamoto is readying his staff for his retirement; he’s taking young/bright developers under his direct command
– Miyamoto is working on a few small projects, but is very focused on Pikmin 3 and Luigi’s Mansion 2
– Nintendo will show a new Super Mario game for Wii U at E3; it will combine the TV screen with the new controller
– Miyamoto wants to do more with the Wii Music idea

If Nintendo is presenting a new Mario project at E3, it would be more likely for them to show off EAD Tokyo’s new game (Mario Galaxy, Mario 3D Land team) rather than New Super Mario Bros. Mii. We’re already getting a 2D sidescroller for the 3DS this year, so it’s unlikely that the Wii U will see a similar experience.

Square Enix will offer new Theatrhythm Final Fantasy songs through downloadable content this week.

As usual, four songs will be available. Final Fantasy 1’s Temple of the Deep (field stage), Final Fantasy V’s Battle 1 (battle stage), Final Fantasy X’s Movement in Green (field stage), and Final Fantasy XII’s Shitou (battle stage) are the new selections.

Each piece of music launches on April 18 for 150 yen each. You can find samples for all of the songs above.

1001 Spikes details

Posted on 12 years ago by (@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 0 comments

Nicalis was showing off the just-revealed 1001 Spikes at iDÉAME 2012. iDÉAME is a gathering of sorts for indie developers.

As previously mentioned, 1001 Spikes is remake of the Xbox Live Marketplace release, Aban Hawkins & the 1000 Spikes.

The first gameplay details have arrived and are as follows:

– Demo begins in a jungle close to a waterfall
– A: shoot
– B: jump
– Y: high jump
– Noticeable differences in the two jumps
– Other buttons aren’t used, nor is the touch screen
– Find a key that opens a door in each level
– Enemies, falling blocks, ravines, and other obstacles will get in your way
– Style comparable to Cave Story and La-Mulana

Note that the 3DS eShop version was tested. Gameplay will be similar if not identical to the Wii U digital download version.

WWE All Stars made it out for the 3DS last year. At this time, it’s unclear if there will be more wrestling action on the system in 2012.

When THQ’s WWE Global Community Manager Aaron Kaufman was asked about a new title for the 3DS, suggesting a possible WrestleFest game with DLC he said, “cool idea, unfortunately no”.

To me this sort of sounds like a no to the WrestleFest idea rather than ruling out a project for the 3DS entirely. There are others, though, who think otherwise. Maybe THQ will clarify the situation soon…

Screenshots are of the 3DS version. I imagine the Wii U version won’t look much different.

Nicalis’ next Nintendo game is 1001 Spikes. The studio will be releasing it on the 3DS eShop as well as Wii U’s digital store.

1001 Spikes is a remake of the indie title Aban Hawkins & the 1000 Spikes made by 8bits Fanatics. It was released on the Xbox Live Marketplace last year.

The 3DS/Wii U edition will feature new art, visuals, music, sound, and a multiplayer mode. Four users will be able to play together locally.

1001 Spikes will be released this year. It’ll be available on the 3DS eShop first and on Wii U sometime after.

Thanks to Sergio F for the tip.

Miyamoto was trying out the Audioguide at the Louvre Museum a few days ago. You can find out more about the 3DS guide here.
