Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Dual Destinies producer Motohide Eshiro commented on a number of different topics in a Kotaku interview, including the possibility of the legendary lawyer making it into Smash Bros.

His response:

“(laughter) I haven’t heard anything about the new Smash Bros. yet, but I don’t really think that there’s a chance that Phoenix could get into Smash Bros. I actually didn’t know that (Mega Man is in Smash Bros.). I was very, very surprised about that.”

Thoughts from Nintendo fans about the software they got to try out

F-Zero hasn’t had a starring role in a Nintendo console game since F-Zero GX on the GameCube close to a decade ago. Shigeru Miyamoto realizes that fans are interested in the series and would love to see a new entry, but he personally struggles over finding an idea “that would really turn it into a great game again.”

According to Miyamoto:

“I certainly understand that people want a new F-Zero game. I think where I struggle is that I don’t really have a good idea for what’s new that we could bring to F-Zero that would really turn it into a great game again. Certainly I can see how people looking at Mario Kart 8 could see, through the anti-gravity, a connection to F-Zero. But I don’t know, at this point, what direction we could go in with a new F-Zero.”

When asked if some franchises such as F-Zero or Wave Race were suited to older generations of Nintendo hardware and didn’t have a place in modern gaming, Miyamoto said:

“It’s tough. We come to the show and we bring a lot of great franchises and everyone says, ‘Oh, well, where’s this game that I want to play? Where’s something new?’ I only have so much capacity. [laughs] Obviously in the past we’ve tried to work with other companies, where we’ve let them develop games for us in franchises like Star Fox and F-Zero, but the more we think about it, the more we prefer to be able to create those games internally, on our own. We’ve obviously, as I mentioned, been working on what we can do to increase our internal staff in a way that will allow us to have more projects going at the same time, so we can create new games and work on additional old IP and still maintain the other primary franchises that people want to see.”

A couple of interesting things here. First, Nintendo likes to create its games internally even though it has allowed outside companies to work on various IPs. Second, Nintendo is looking to increase its staff so that it can work on more titles at once.

In an interview with IGN, Nintendo CEO president Satoru Iwata reiterated Nintendo’s need to re-energize the Wii U in order to gain third-party support. Iwata expressed that he’s “very willing to change the current situation.”

“What we need to do is regain the momentum of the Wii U in the marketplace and establish successful examples of third-party Wii U software. Our focus is, first of all, to regain the momentum of the Wii U towards the end of this year, and then we’ll try to establish successful third-party Wii U software titles. I believe in the importance of third-party support for Nintendo platforms. I’m very willing to change the current situation.”
