The following comes from a German video interview with Shigeru Miyamoto. We’ve posted a rough translation of what was discussed below.

Miyamoto on the art shown at last year’s E3…

“This image plays an important role in the plot. At E3 you will see what I mean. But honestly said you will only remember the games, such as makes the joke much. So you wait until you play it yourself.”

Miyamoto on how many changes there will be in the game…

“For us, two things are important: to meet expectations and to surprise people. How we do it this time, I will not reveal. Normally, we create the video sequences, and these sequences are expanded. But this time we started with the game structure. And then with the video sequences. So this time it was reversed. Therefore, we have had little so far from the game to show. But will publish a lot close to the game’s completion. For us, it is important to the to optimize gameplay and make the controls easier. We do our best to make the controls player friendly, since ‘Zelda’ has become complicated.”

“[The original online mode was] pretty symmetrical, pretty safe. [The Invasion Mode is] similar to Horde Mode in Gears Of war 2 – just you and a bunch of buddies fighting against bad guys…we’re very interested in it (DLC). Whatever it takes to give legs to the community side is cool.” – Joshua Olson, producer

My biggest concerns with Conduit’s 2 online functionality are hackers and glitches. Those two issues were prominent in the original, though we’ve heard that the developers are trying to prevent those problems from creeping into the sequel.

Last month, the Wii saw the release of a significant game, Monster Hunter Tri. The title has received heavy marketing from Capcom with television commercials and online promotion. However, there have been a number of questions regarding how well Tri would do overseas as the series has not reached the same popularity in Europe and North America as it has in Japan.

Well, the game apparently sold about 126,000 units in the United States. This is, of course, based on data from NPD. Monster Hunter Tri launched on April 20, so that data includes less than two weeks from sales. Tri didn’t set the sales charts on fire, but Capcom is most likely relatively pleased with how it’s performing so far.
