One of the more interesting points from the discussion is that he expressed willingness to let Retro Studios collaborate with Nintendo on Zelda. He talks about Mario 3D Land, Skyward Sword, a little bit about Wii U, and a bunch of other topics.
All of Miyamoto’s comments can be found after the break.

TT Games is continuing their work on the LEGO game series with LEGO Batman 2: Super Heroes. The title was confirmed in a toy set that has been spotted in the U.S. and will be arriving in the UK soon. LEGO Batman 2 is definitely coming to Wii and 3DS, though it isn’t clear if a DS version is in the works as well.
Batman 2 will be the second LEGO game launching in 2012. Nintendo will publish LEGO City Stories for Wii U and 3DS sometime next year.

Mario’s had a busy end to the year. Whether he’s been racing through the air, across the land or at the bottom of the sea in Mario Kart™ 7 which launched on 2nd December 2011 or donning his favourite Tanooki Suit to master a mixture of new and classic abilities on his quest through the Mushroom Kingdom in SUPER MARIO 3D LAND™ which launched on 18th November 2011.
