Miyamoto talks new Galaxy, Pikmin, and Mario DS

IGN talked to Miyamoto and he talked about a couple of series that might interest all of you. Below are things that Miyamoto said in the interview that may or may not hint at a possible Galaxy sequel, Pikmin 3, and a new New Super Mario Bros. title for the DS.

In regards to Pikmin 3… “There isn’t anything that we can announce right now, but I’m sure we’ll probably do something with it. The Pikmin team is, of course, still there and maybe we’ll have something to talk about before too long.”

In regards to a new New Super Mario Bros. DS… “That team is also working hard. The thing that’s difficult is that, as you know, the way we handle our announcement is we work on product and once the product is at a state where we feel it’s ready to show to people, then that’s when we’re willing to talk about it. Which is why it’s difficult for me to talk about different projects in interviews. I have a lot of different teams and those teams are all at different points in their experiments or development, so it’s typically once they’ve finalized something that we’re able to talk about it. But for me to go into too much detail would be a little bit irresponsible in an interview. All that I can say is that that team is also working.

Maybe the best thing for you to understand is that all of the leaders of those teams — of the Mario team, of the Zelda team and of the Pikmin team — all sit within 150 feet of my desk. The Galaxy team is the only one that’s farther away — they’re in Tokyo. But I do have video conferencing with them.”

IGN asked Miyamoto to make a Super Mario Galaxy sequel and he responded with…  “Leave it to me.”
