[Quote="Gamespot"]Mario, Zelda creator Shigeru Miyamoto says mystery project has been "keeping me pretty busy."
Famed game designer Shigeru Miyamoto, the creator of Mario and Zelda, has teased a "new franchise" for 2014.
"We'll have Mario Kart 8 out next spring, and at that point we'll have the whole lineup in place, so I think it's about time we brought out a new franchise," Miyamoto said in the latest issue of Famitsu (as translated by Polygon). "I can't give out details, but that's the title that's been keeping me pretty busy lately."
A new and original game from Miyamoto was first revealed in January 2012, when the Associated Press reported that the designer was at work on an "undisclosed original title."
Miyamoto's most recently released title was March's Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon for the 3DS. He is currently working on Wii U game Pikmin 3, due to launch August 4.
The designer turns 61 this year, and said in March that it would be "strange" not to be thinking about retirement, though he has no immediate plans to step down from his post.Gargus
The last new IP Miyamoto was invvolved in was Wii, although his last original IP that he spearheaded was Pikmin, back in 2001.
Anyway, what with The Wonderful 101 this year, and Project X and Miyamoto's new game next year, looks like all the complains of Nintendo not having new franchises will soon be gone. Plus those that continue to criticize Nintendo for not having any new IPs developed in house from their EAD or SPD studios should be pretty satisfied with this as well, I think.
Anyway, what do you think it will be? Another platformer? An RPG? Shooter? Racer? Something completely out of the left field, like Pikmin?

Wonderful 101 isnt a nintendo game, they didnt make it. Nintendo is just publishing it. Dozens of games come out every year for nintendo systems that nintendo doesnt actually make. Wonderful 101 is just another since its being made by platinum games. Thats like saying bayonetta 2 is a nintendo game when they didnt actually make it, they just published it so it doesnt belong to them.

Project x? Did you mean project x zone? If you did then again nintendo didnt make it. Sega, namco and capcom made it. Nintendo didnt even publish it, namco did.

And miyamoto only making 1 new game for nintendo that nintendo actually makes? Eh, so what? It wont live up to its expectations I can guarntee that. Besides what he personally created in the past decade that wasnt just another franchise jerkoff? Wii music, steel diver, chibi robo thats pretty much it.
He means Project X which is Monolith Soft's X (Working Title) Monolith Soft is owned by Nintendo since 2007.Wonderful101 Nintendo does own the IP they contracted Platinum Games to make it.
