Yoshio Sakamoto has gone on record to talk about Nintendo’s next home console. Obviously he doesn’t give anything away but it’s interesting anyway.
“At Nintendo we always have the obligation to surprise users with a new game console. We have never done what others have. We prefer to create something new that catches attention, and I think this will continue this time as well. Surely the new Nintendo machine will leave you all with your mouth open.”
After Nintendo left us all with our mouth’s open with the 3DS, I really can’t wait to see that they have in store for us with their next home console!

Ken Levine, the President and creative director at Irrational Games wonders whether 3DS will be the new home of shovelware and if third party devs can keep up with Nintendo…
“Great, now my beside table is going to have an iPhone, an iPad, and a Nintendo 3DS. I think the question for how much attention the new Nintendo hotness will get is, like always, based on software, on games. Is somebody going to be able to make the darn thing sing? Or is it going to be a shovel-ware extravaganza (but now in glorious 3D!). Nintendo makes insanely good first-party stuff; we’ll see if the rest of us devs can follow suit.”

The man in charge of the 3DS lead title – Kid Icarus: Uprising – Masahiro Sakurai has told C&VG that Pit now feels like a new character and that there will be lots of different weapons in the game. The more the merrier!
“One thing I can talk about is that Pit uses a lot of weapons and this is a very important aspect of the game. There’s a wide variety of very different types of weapons. Each one is very unique and presents a wide range of gameplay possibilities and a multitude of ways to approach different enemies with different weapons. All of this weapon variation makes you feel like you’re playing the game with a brand new character because the feel is so varied when you use different weapons.”
