In an interview with Australia's 'Courier Mail', Nintendo's legendary game designer Shigeru Miyamoto has spoken out about where Nintendo will go next, after they have caused their gaming revolution. Would the company go for more sophisticated graphics?

"Maybe a few years down the road then definitely we will probably look in that direction, but at this point in time we thought it better to use technology not to simply try to re-create the same games over again with better graphics but instead to try and do something new and unique."

Though Miyamoto re-affirmed that good gameplay would always be part of Nintendo's main objectives - "Two things. Number one, [a game should allow] the player to experience something they've never felt before, whether it's some kind of new experience in the game or new emotion. And number two, [a game should] be very easy to play and easy to control."

Clearly Nintendo's testing the battlegrounds with the Wii to see if they gain enough weight to -compete- with those other guys.

Mr. Miyamoto prompted widespread speculation that the series will receive a major overhaul for the Wii title by saying in a Japanese radio interview that "Twilight Princess will be, without a doubt, the last Zelda game as you know it in its present form."[6] At this point, the nature of the overhaul is unknown, but it could possibly include major alterations to the gameplay, graphical style, and/or storyline.

If they even want to remain in the race, they WILL have to majorly upgrade their graphics eventually.

It's quite obvious that most people want to be able to see every bead of sweat on a guy in 1080p, instead of actually having decent gameplay.

Just look at Mario Galaxy, Twilight Princess and Brawl for example. -------------------- When you're a kid and you wanna go Wii, but you ain't got drugs yet! ALL GLORY TO ARTHUR da

Take a look at Games such as Banjo-Tooie, Pikmin and even Animal Crossing. Sure their Graphics may have been Below Sub-par but the gameplay is just fantastic. --------------------

Better graphics can only make the games better, and we all know how great Nintendo already are at making games. Stop complaining. -------------------- lol myspace lol facebook xbawx live gamertag

... I don't know how you compared PIKMIN to those two.

He's adorable, you can't deny it. :< Group: Members Posts: 3307 Member No.: 2001 Joined: 5-April 06 Status: (0d)	Nintendo games still have great graphics, I think this is because Nintendo seems to use all their graphics power for stuff that is actually noticeable, while Microsoft and Sony waste a lot on little effects that will only be seen by people with Really-Hi-Def TVs. When I can have better graphics but the same gameplay, I'll choose better graphics. No one here would choose the original SMB over the SMAS version, unless you wanted some of the glitches only in it, or to play a ROM hack of it. -------------------- untitled fangame http://archive.mfgg.net/index.php?showtopic=242243 expected completion: ∞
