In a recent interview with the spanish newspaper El Mundo, the creative legend behind many of Nintendo’s great franchises Shigeru Miyamoto let some things slip about new games coming for both the Wii U and the 3DS (link). Miyamoto said to El Mundo:
"I'm working on several projects but I think that I cannot talk about them all [laughs]. Some are small but important projects for Wii U. Also on a new Pikmin, which will take advantage of the new HD screen resolution, and on Luigi's Mansion for 3DS."
I don’t know about you, but I am be EXTREMELY excited for the next long awaited entry into the Pikmin franchise, but the Pikmin and Luigi’s Mansion slip is taking a backseat to a new mario game for the Wii U that Miyamoto said would be shown at E3 this year. What lends even more credence to his statements is that Nintendo officially responded to Eurogamer by saying:
"In a recent interview, Mr. Miyamoto confirmed that a new Super Mario Bros. game for the Wii U system will be shown at this year's E3 Expo," a Nintendo spokesperson said. "We'll have more to announce about our plans for the E3 Expo at a later date."
It isn’t really unexpected that a new Super Mario Bros. game would eventually be coming out for the Wii U, but with the recent aquisition of SuperMario4.com by Nintendo, could this next game be the ever awaited sequel to Super Mario Bros. 3? In any case, we should all know fairly soon considering E3 is just around the corner.
