Miyamoto Says His Brand New Franchise Is Keeping Him Busy

shigeru_miyamoto2

Legendary games designer Shigeru Miyamoto has reconfirmed that he is working on a brand new franchise for Nintendo platforms. Miyamoto says he is busy at the moment working on the mysterious title and hinted that it was about time that the team brought out something brand new for the fans. He wouldn’t give out any details regarding the mysterious project, but it will certainly be something to keep an eye on.

“I think it’s about time we brought out a new franchise. I can’t give out details, but that’s the title that’s been keeping me pretty busy lately.”

Thanks, Nintedward

    1. Please don’t be Mario Dance Please don’t be Mario Dance Please don’t be Mario Dance Please don’t be Mario Dance i damnit I have a feeling its a just dance clone with Mario D: hopefully not lol

      1. I would actually love it if he did a FPS. But I would rather see him do something else but an FPS from Miyamoto doesn’t sound bad at all

          1. Maybe something like the old Smash T.V. But you could look around the room with the Game Pad in order to look around the arena.

      2. He actually said he’d love to do a first person game, he even wanted Ocarina of Time to be First person, but he said that he’s want the gun to be unique, like the portal gun, rather than one that fires bullets.

        1. As bad as I would love to brag about Nintendo’s new game I should brace myself for the truth, that they aren’t making the super motherload fps based somewhere from the Metroid franchise. No, Nintendo will boldly go wherever they want. To bring us something we couldn’t even imagine loving even more. Just once would you give us both?

          1. Probably contains no “awesome” connotations whatsoever since “disgrace” is exactly how I’d describe Eczema.

        1. The Wonderful 101 is a Nintendo IP because they are trademarked by Nintendo and have actually contributed to that particular IP. Even Xenoblade is now a Nintendo IP and not Square’s or Monolith Soft’s because they are owned by Nintendo. It works the same way for Naughty Dog’s Uncharted and The Last of Us being a Sony PlayStation IP.

    1. Pretty sure it was February 22, 2012 with the release of Dillon’s Rolling Western.
      Became a franchise this April with the release of The Last Ranger.

    1. The last IP they technically made was with the Gamecube ? Forgetting about the 50+ new IP’s that came out of DS , 3DS , Wii ?

      Excite truck , Wii sports , Pushmo , Steel diver , Nintendogs , and tons more…

        1. W101 is property of Platinum Games not Nintendo… But Xenoblade chronicles does count yes , seems how Nintendo owns Monolith soft now.

            1. Im not too sure really :/ … Nintendo is publishing w101 and Bayonetta 2. But Platinum could put sequels to them on other platforms if someone else publishes them…

              W101 is not a new Nintendo IP , Just like Lego City isn’t. They’re Platinum and TT (third party) IP respectively.

      1. ok excite truck isnt a new ip, its the excite series and as good as excite truck an bots is, that was made by monster games, not nintendo. all the other garbage sovelware doesnt count in my book. nintendo havnt really created a new io since the gamecube and its time to have another one.

        1. All the “Wii” games are new ones. Just because you’ve created your own nonsense rubric for what a new IP is, doesn’t mean it has anything to do with reality.

        2. OK, can you please write out your book in full please so that we all know in advance what you count as a new IP or not? You could say anything wasn’t in your book in response to anything.

        3. You’re talking Bullshit kid. Have you seen the Trailer for X ? that’s a new IP (or maybe a continuation of Xenoblade) by Nintendo.

          Art academy , Batallion Wars , Wii sports , Wii fit , Endless ocean , Disaster day of crisis , Xenoblade chronicles , Pandoras Tower , Excite truck/bots , Nintendogs , Electroplankton , Meteos , Rythm heaven , Pushmo/Crashmo , Sakura/Hanna Samura , Steel diver , Freeky forms , Potzols/Ketzals corridors , Nintendo Land , Another Code , Mario vs DK (technically not) .

          That’s only about half of the new IP’s they’ve made since the Gamecube….

          1. nintendo didnt create any of those games!!!!! the shitty shovelware like wii music and wii sports was the only ones that were made by them, those dont count as ips because they are shit and dont lie. yes i understand that all those games are nintendo platform games. im talking bout nintendo MADE games. the last was the likes of pikmin and luigis mansion. you know what im talking about this is all nintendo, not anybody else and its about time we see something new again.

            1. What an idiot. So Sony didn’t create TLOU ? I guess that was Naughty dog. But ND is a first party of Sony you pleb. Nintendo owns/created all the stuff I listed and more.

              1. no nintendo makes games themselves , sony doesnt. this is all nintendo tools, monoltih soft made xenoblade, thats not a nintendo MADE GAME. the last story not nintendo, pandoras tower, not nintendo. stop damage controlling dumb ass. nintendo ip, as in mario kirby zelda, you know what i mean. do i have to spell it out for you!!!!! they need to create a new one. please tell me your not this stupid to know what im talking about.dont fucking tell me that nintendo MADE XENOBLADE!!!!! they didnt make that, so its not nintendo creation!!!!!

                1. Actually, Monolith Soft IS a first party developer for Nintendo. Therefore, Nintendo made Xenoblade. That’s just like saying Fire Emblem isn’t a Nintendo made game because Intelligent Systems made it. Also, Kirby was created by HAL Laboratory, so does that make it not a Nintendo made game even though you claim it is? These are all FIRST PARTY DEVELOPERS for Nintendo and if you’re saying they don’t count, how would Nintendo make games if they don’t have game developers? These companies are all OWNED by Nintendo, therefore games they make ARE Nintendo made games. So please, do not call people stupid if you do not know what you’re talking about as well.

                2. So , Sony and Microsoft basically make NO GAMES AT ALL , by your logic ? Stop being an idiot.

                  Nintendo EAD and all their first parties is Nintendo.

                  Just stop it….

                  1. yes i already know everything you guys are saying is true….. im just talking about like nintendo alone, just needs a knew franchise. thats it. get what im talking about.

          2. Art Academy is a new IP.
            Battalion Wars isn’t because that’s part of Nintendo Wars, an already existing series.
            Wii Sports and Wii Fit are also part of the same “Wii” series.
            Endless Ocean is new.
            Disaster is new.
            Xenoblade is new.
            Pandora’s new.
            Excite Truck and Bots are part of the Excite series from decades ago.
            Nintendogs is new.
            Electroplankton’s new.
            I don’t think Meteos even belongs to Nintendo.
            Rhythm Heaven’s from the GBA.
            Pushmo’s new.
            Sakura Samurai’s new.
            Steel Diver’s new.
            Freaky Forms is new.
            I don’t know if Ketzal’s Corridors is Nintendo or not.
            Nintendo Land is new.
            Another Code is new despite the fact we’ll never get another game like that again.
            Mario Vs. DK isn’t really new since it uses two existing franchises.

        4. How about CONTRA- “The Iceazeama virus Eradicaters!” That would at least make MynintendoNews and WIIUDaily much better sites tov visit lol!

        5. Wow, so games you haven’t played that you call “garbage” apparently don’t count as new IPs because YOU say so? What a load of bullshit. Grow up dude.

        6. SherlockWillFightBilbo

          If you’re saying Wii Sports, Xenoblade, and Pushmo are shovelware then you are probably the single stupidest entity here. Sorry, I normally don’t throw insults, but you’re plain ridiculous. I doubt you even read what he said.

      2. I hear Pushmo is a good game but not sure. As for those others, terrible examples no offense.

  1. it will be mario and peaches kid in a ALL NEW MARIO.
    lol
    you will get nothing new from this uncreative fucking jap,
    LOL
    SONY WINS.

      1. its just going to be the same shit, wrapped in a new diaper for the sheep to push around the yard thinking they got something.
        lol
        sony wins.

              1. yeah a nice investment….. my wallet is going overboard while your going broke. you wont be able to pay your bills, its ok though this place is the killer when it comes to food!!!!!

          1. you all are going to be so dissapointed when this NEW IP hits.
            it WILL be the same as anything else this ugly fucking jap has put out.
            you will see.
            fucking sheep will eat anything these days.
            lol
            sony wins.

        1. Sony has new franchises but the gameplay is not different at all. When Nintendo make new franchises it has different gameplay. I mean look at Uncharted. It was a different franchise but it had gameplay we all probably already played before. But look at Pikmin. It was a new franchise and it had never seen before gameplay. And same thing with Pushmo.

    1. You cold-hearted, racist son of a bitch! How DARE you?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! How gosh darn DARE YOU!?!?!?!?!?!?!

      1. my mother is dead and i live in my highrise condo left to me in the will.
        my wife and kids think the world of me and i am highly respected by my peers and REAL social circle.
        if you want truth, there you go.
        lol
        sony wins.

        1. Yeah hahahaha, ok, well… then stop posting “sony wins” in the articles, otherwise your kids will be hated humans in this society, poor souls searching for attention… I mean, well, like you

          1. just like your hated in the real world and have to hide in your locker till all the cool kids leave school first.
            lol
            sony wins.

        2. I fucked your dead mom before I killed her and after and your peers highly respect me for it.

          1. you are sick, my peers would put you in jail for the sic things you just said you did.
            fucking little child, trying to sound cool, what a joke you are.
            lol sony wins.

            1. Your peers got on their knees and sucked your moms shit off my dick after I finished the act. Your peers hate you. They only play nice when you’re around and pretend to like you. You should hear the shit they talk about you when you aren’t around. I told them you ain’t that bad but they wouldn’t hear it.

          1. nope, we love each other, the beatings are reserved for ass-clowns like yourself.
            and you do recieve a lot of beatings dont you?
            lol
            sony wins.

            1. We all know you are lying. And your comebacks are dreaful. Now go back under your bridge to your so called “Playstation” and get out of this website.

              lol
              Nintendo wins.

  3. Anyone remember the game ‘mini ninjas’, it has ninjas and colourful art style. Nintendo could make a cool ninja platformer with a good battle system (many cool moves instead of just jumping on top of your opponent) and maybe even some adventure elements (story, cutscenes, exploration of an overworld, but with individual levels). Would be cool.

    1. well people aren’t saying the Pikmin franchise is a system seller and that was made by Miyamoto. 💋

    2. Likely not.

      Pikmin was a launch-window title for the GameCube, and it didn’t sell GameCubes.

      GameCube would’ve benefitted much better if they had Sunshine out for the launch.

      But Luigi’s Mansion was fun.

      1. That is true, but Olimar was in Smash Bros. So I am sure the Pikmin franchise has gotten a boost in potential customers. Pikmin 3 has been showcased by Nintendo at E3 and at Best Buy, etc. I am sure it’ll push a couple units. At least for the Nintendo fans who have yet to buy the Wii U.💋

    Miyamotos new ip is called Please Understand. The game is gonna be big open world adventure platformer strategy game where you control main character Iwata. In story Iwata finds wierd warp gate which takes him to Mexico where Iwata tries communicate with other people, but they dont understand what he says so Iwata decides to destroy everyone out of his way so he can get back to Nintendo headquarters. Believe me i have inside information from Nintendo they told me about this before Wii u was released, i have seen it and it looks good runs on 120fps.

    1. i was told it was called “UNIque Experience”
      that ugly jap runs aroud with sheep food, you controll him, must feed sheep quickly or be told “sorry, game over, Please Understand”
      lol
      sony wins.

      1. I’m looking forward to the Sony version, where the player can’t do anything, because they have no money.

        :)

  5. It’s about time there was a new franchise, I was getting pretty tired of endless retreads of Pushmo, Ketzal’s Corridors, Dillon’s Rolling Western, Freakyforms, HarmoKnight, The Denpa Men, Tokyo Crash Mobs, Xenoblade Chronicles, The Last Story, and Pandora’s Tower. Give us something NEW!

    1. It’s pretty hard to get what you mean, but I see what you did there :P PS Please make a WiiU Dillan Nintendo, that would be amazing and a boxed release at best.

    2. Dillon’s Rolling Western IS new. Or at least it was new when the first one came out not that long ago. Also, Harmoknight is new too. and Denpa Men (which isn’t made by Nintendo) same with… oh wait. I think I finally caught your saracasm! :P 💋

  6. I liked Nintendo Land, but I don’t know if mushing up all their old IP’s counts as a “New IP.” It was very fun though.

    It better not be “Even Newer Super Mario Brothers.” (It better have nothing to do with Mario.)

    I’m excited to see what it is. I really hope it’s not something for the Casual crowd. I like “casual” games also, but if they want to stand a chance against Sony’s PS4, we need them to drop a bomb!

  7. I would like a game on the scale of GTA V with some more mature elements (And no I don’t mean violence and sex) like something along the lines of Heavy Rain… without the disgusting gameplay and with a 3rd Person game.

  8. You know what would be good? If they didn’t reveal any information on this, but included the character in the next Smash Bros. That way the hype for the series could instantly be raised just like how Marth, Roy, Ike, Ness and Lucas brought Fire Emblem and Mother to America, and Pit earned himself a series revival.

    1. That would be cool, but what if the character is already in Brawl. What if the character is a lesser known main character. Miyamoto did Mario first, Then produced Luigi’s Mansion, maybe he is working on a Stand-alone Princess Leach game in 3D!!!? 💋

        1. That was 2D though. 3D Princess Peach game based on Isle Delfino like a spiritual successor to Mario Sunshine would be pretty awsome! 💋

      1. Okay, first of all, calm yourself. He said its a new franchise. A new IP. Peach isn’t exactly screaming “franchise”. And the fact that its a NEW IP means it has NOTHING to do with Mario, or any aide game or any sequel. Its a character that has never been seen before.

  9. I wonder what it will be!? Does it involve a BRAND NEW character or maybe it takes a lesser known existing character and makes them the star?! Like maybe it is Peach with her very own 3D platformer. Or maybe we get to take control of Bowser? Or the character could be someone that isn’t really that popular at all like Waluigi lol!? All I know is I hope it is not a racer, 2D platformer, simple puzzle game, or a 1st person shooter (Nintendo jumps on CoD?!) 💋

    1. I hope they make another plat former adventure to make up for the death of my favorite bear and bird. Who created the new bad guys in Lost Words? Nintendo or Sega?

  10. ANOTHER KIDDIE LOOKING GAME OR A COLLECTION OF MINI GAMES.
    NO THANKS U VERY MUCH RATHER SAVE MY MUNEY

  11. I wished he just gave us a general idea of what type of game it is. A mystery game? A role playing game? All we need is him to say what kind of game it is and doesn’t have to release any other information until they are ready. And people, its a NEW IP meaning it won’t have anything to do with Mario or the others established franchises.

  12. “its about time…” we got a new NINTENDO DIRECT do it Iwata… pull the damn trigger 1.20mins long
    2.New Myamoto project
    3.Zelda Wii U(remember myamoto said they could have shown it at E3 but cut it for some reason)
    4.Drop mike and moon walk out

    this is how you “own” the whole damn show

    sincerely
    The Lark

  13. I hope it’s something that’s as fun and unique (and as addicting) as Pikmin. PLEASE DON’T BE A FIRST PERSON PERSPECTIVE GAME!

    1. Why? Metroid Prime(one of the best Nintendo games ever) was in first person and Ocarina of TIme was supposed to be in first person too.

  14. Last few times he came up with “new franchises” it was Wii dance, Wii sports, Wii party and Nintendogs.

    I don’t have any faith, it obviously will be something shitty.

  15. I’d have to consult you below. Which is not something I usually carry out! I enjoy looking at a post that will make people feel. Also, appreciate your allowing me to review!
