Gamefront says its a new franchise!
E3 is gonna be amazing, Zoonami game unvieling, Capcom announcements, Pikmin 2, Mario 128, Pokemon Cube, Mario Kart, tennis and golf etc. and now this! Miyamoto is a genious, he could do wonders with the GC/GBA connectivity feature. I cant wait to see what it is.

If it's just an "unlock" ala Metroid...
Or if you have to have anything other than the game, GBA, GC, and Link Cable...
I will do something. I have no idea what yet. Maybe I'll kidnap him ala Penny Arcade.
Anyway, a new franchise sounds cool... But I wanted more than one. I still don't mind, though, as long as it's a proper, full-assed new franchise, not like Pikmin and Animal Crossing, but like Zelda, Mario, Pokemon and Metroid. Slim chance? Perhaps... but those games had to start somewhere.

This will probably be a good title but I'm not going to get my hopes up for an amazing killer app. Not that I don't think EAD can pull one off it's just I don't want to hype up a game I know nothing about and risk being disappointed.

It sure to be good cause no one can say that Pokemon or Zelda or Marioar bad games (just a matter of taste for some people).
Will it be a duo(or a hole kingdom :thumbsup
? Will it be an adult one? A serious one? Mysterious?And the most important :the sort of gameplay and how many games are nintendo planning to do?
The last coupleof years Miyamoto has been very enthousiastic and refreshing so this could be like any genre other game.

I wonder what the odds are the lead character is a female.
I wonder what the inspiration for THIS franchise is. I hope Miyamoto hasn't been anywhere near the kitchen lately. We've already seen the fruits of his trips to caves, bathrooms and gardens.
Nice nickname, by the way... unless it's not from Monkey Island, in which case, never mind.

I don't think anyone said it would suck. I merely said I'm not going to hype myself up for a game I know virtually nothing about.
"Miyamoto is VERY humble. He has criticized his own games by admitting himself that Super Mario Sunshine wasn't a super game and that Pikmin was really short. Him saying that this will be a great game should really mean something"
He said all that AFTER those games were released. He certainly wouldn't say anything negative about one of his games before it came out. That would be just plain stupid.

If Miyamoto says it's remarkable, expect something a little different from the norm. It may not be mainstream appealing, but it'll be creative. Innovation is Shigeru's strong point.

While I was sifting through the trashcans (for some dinner) in the back-alley where Louie the Cat cruises, I noticed evidence left behind.
Miyamoto's new franchise is called Tsunami: The Megaton Tidal Wave and it involves a lot of collecting and encourages gamers to swap their data with friends. While your GCN is turned off your game is still living/evolving on the GBA and during the night when you sleep the game can turn your GBA on (with the aid of a special new technolgy chip and the GBA acts like an emergency secret agent PDA gadget) and alert you to distressing/breaking news which you must attend on your GCN.
Should you fall asleep without attending your GBA alert, your inventory may be ravaged by Louie the Cat who plays a guest roll in the game. This new franchise intends on having gamers play the franchise around the clock and pretty soon it will get banned in Japan due to lack of school attendance.
NDA's prevent me from disclosing any more information and could someone pass me some toilet paper please.
Cause Im talking shite.
