Legendary Nintendo games designer Shigeru Miyamoto has hinted that the Wii may yet see a Starfox game – and also said he wants the next version of the Wii to be unique.
Miyamoto, responsible for bringing the Mario and Zelda games into the world, told GamesTM magazine that the next big challenge for Nintendo was how “unique and different” a product it is able to make in comparison to its rivals’ consoles.
When asked about the long-rumoured Wii HD, he replied: “Technology is always evolving and Nintendo… is going to integrate those technologies into our new products as they develop. Whether that be a Wii HD, Wii 2 or an entirely new console, I am not in a position to say at the moment.”
When GamesTM said that they’d like to see Starfox make a return to Nintendo’s consoles, he agreed. While that’s hardly a confirmation of a Wii Starfox title, he has previously said that the Wiimote would be suitable for controlling Starfox’s Arwing spacecraft. Putting two and two together, it seems we could well see Starfox jetting his way onto Wii in the not-too-distant future.
