News from Naka (impressed with 3DS, making animal-based title, more)
Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
Yuji Naka, CEO of Prope responding to the fact that he created Sonic…
“Not right now. Right now, I want to create new things. Even if I had the opportunity to create some kind of new Sonic game I think that’s best kept within Sega.”
Naka on whether we’ll see another game like Let’s Tap…
“Personally, I would love to work on something like that, but the sales weren’t high so I don’t know if I can justify making another one. One of the things in Let’s Tap is it’s not digital, you don’t push a button and have the game react to it. I’m really happy with the technology we created. It senses soft touches, reads that, and puts that it into the game.
Sony thinks Wii, 360 succesors could make it out before next PS3

“Looking from the outside, it was Microsoft that released the first of this generation of consoles. Naturally, in my opinion, Microsoft will make the first move. Or, because Nintendo’s approach was not to upgrade much on its basic hardware – Wii doesn’t even support HD resolution – so they might be the first to move. Probably the watch should be on these companies, in my opinion.” – Sony Worldwide Studios boss Shuhei Yoshida
Nintendo has repeatedly said that HD alone won’t motivate the company to introduce a new console. There needs to be an innovative idea that can’t be realized on current hardware. And with the 3DS launching as late as next year, it wouldn’t surprise me if it takes Nintendo a long time to announce a Wii successor.
