Shigeru Miyamoto has commented on the likes of Pikmin 3 and Zelda for Wii U in a new interview.

Specifically, Miyamoto discussed the length of Pikmin 3’s development and the benefits of having it on a more powerful console. As for Zelda, he said that some players weren’t fond of the game’s motion controls, and Nintendo is “in the phase where we’re looking back at what’s worked very well and what has been missing and how can we evolve it further.”

Read on below for Miyamoto’s official comments about these projects and more.

One of Ubisoft’s more interesting Wii U titles is ZombiU, which just so happens to be an exclusive for the system. However, vice president of sales and marketing Tony Key says that it could wind up on other platforms – just don’t count on it happening anytime soon.

Key said the following about the possibility of porting ZombiU to additional systems:

“ZombiU at its core was designed to be a great Wii U game and in order to make that work on other platforms they would have to change a lot of what makes the game cool. And I’m not saying that can’t be done, but not in the next six months, you know?”

Key later revealed that Ubisoft considered bringing the Wii IP Red Steel to different consoles:

“We’ve done this before. When we launched the Wii we had a game called Red Steel that was exclusive to the Wii and it was designed for the Wii. We talked about bringing that to other platforms, and we always kept coming back to ‘what makes the game cool isn’t what would make it cool on those other systems.’ The brand itself we generally try to exploit everywhere we can, but I think for now it’s going to be a really, really good Wii U game.”
