Nintendo: Miyamoto Confirms Nintendo Are Currently Working On New Hardware

Legendary games designer, Shigeru Miyamoto, has confirmed that Nintendo are currently working on new hardware though as expected he didn’t reveal whether this is a portable device or a fully fledged home console.

Shigeru Miyamoto recently attended the 13th Annual Japan Media Arts Festival and informed the audience that Nintendo is hard at work on a new games console and its also developing a new unannounced Wii MotionPlus title.

    • Yes, but I highly doubt such a prolific figure for Nintendo such as Shigeru Miyamoto would formally announce such a thing if it was at a primitive stage of development : )

  1. Whatever it is, I hope it’s released in Black. In the USA.
    Never again the bull crap ‘Black Wii available pretty much anywhere besides USA’

    • I know right? i was so mad when they released the black wii-mote/nunchuck priced at $5x. not everyone likes white =[ (though im wishing for a lime green wii)

  3. Nintendo have previously said (in the run up to Wiis launch) that as soon as one dev cycle is finished the start researching and developing the successor so having something tangible now comes as no big surprise though release dates and capabillities will be extremely interesting

  4. That’s cool. But I won’t get my hopes up, since it will be a LONG time before they give us any new info. Especially since the new Zelda game isn’t even out yet.

  6. This is a list of some things that I kind of expect Nintendo to include in their next console. This is a copy-paste from a topic of mine at my forum, with slight edits.

    *Blu-ray disc games (Blu-Rays are slowly becoming the standard for movies these days. Games are the next step.)

    *Up to 1080p resolution (in order to get the full viewing pleasure from the Blu-Ray discs. I don’t see Nintendo dropping the standard A/V cables. Some people don’t have HD televisions, so it would be good for the console to output 480i all the way up to 1080p.)

    *Movie Streaming/Downloading/whatever ( I’ve already heard that the Wii is getting NetFlix, so I’m sure that the next console will as well.)

    *DVD/Blu-Ray watching out of the box (no modding required. If they begin to use blu-ray discs for their games, then I’m sure they’ll include this.)

    *External Hard-drive compatible (for all your pictures, movies, downloaded games, etc)

    *Keeps backward’s compatibility with the Wii (naturally) and the Gamecube discs (which would require the memory card slots and controller plug-ins)

    *Controllers will have Motion-Plus built-in(Assuming they expand on the Wii-Mote)

    *Perhaps a Motion-Plus Nunchuk(Again, assuming they expand on the Wii-Mote)

    • Tooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo long!

      • Yeah, I know it’s kind of long. I like a little details, lol. I read this article, and it reminded me of my post, so I just had to go find it again, and share it.
