Miyamoto's promise: Nintendo working on 'many' core games

Hoping to make the rounds this week and get the word out about the casual concoction that is Wii Music, Shigeru Miyamoto just couldn't escape questions about where all the "real" games are. Speaking to GameDaily, the legendary game designer replied (and we're paraphrasing here – maybe even a little too much): "They're coming, so can you please stop asking?"

Okay, okay. What he specifically and actually said was that, "...for 30 years now I've been making games and for the vast majority of time I've been making the type of games that the loyal Nintendo fans enjoy." Yes, we're aware. Please continue. Where's the fanbait? Oh, here it is: "Those are the types of games that my career is based on and we're going to continue to make those types of games. In fact, we have many of those types of games in development right now."

Don't let our glib take on this ... core crisis color your opinion of Mr. Miyamoto. He's an outstanding person and incredibly nice. Sure, he's a little exasperated about the situation, but, like all loyal Nintendo fans, that's to be expected at this point.
