Gaming Miyamoto wants to make an FPS game.

New GBAtemp:
No posting actual news, just post links that no one clicks and let them draw conclusions from the thread title
God what a shithole. Read, will you? this isn't "shocking".

On topic, Shiggy's mostly interested in the camera system, and some potential new ideas for the Wii U. You guys do know he's the one that turned Metroid Prime into an FPS, right?

Yeah many of the news here lately are drawing attention becasue of the headlines and the worst part is that people post them without proper research, when reading the actual source you realize that the majority should be labled as rumors, it's either that or the news post is misinterpreted, biased or just plainly wrong.

I believe Miyamoto always wantsto stand out, if he were to develop a title in that genre it would probably be a new take on it and not a CoD copycat.

BTW anyone else reminded by his comment "I could have made that game" regarding some fps game I can't remember?
I believe it was halo haha.

Perhaps I should have said that it's not news? That's why I didn't post it in the news section.
Oh dman, I didn't realize I posted the same title 2 times in OP. DX

I don't see the problem. As long as it's not a carbon copy of COD I'll be looking forward to it.

It's Miyamoto , it's not like he's gonna make CoD except where you play as Mario.

Coins of Duty: Miyamoto 3

That's pretty interesting. Miyamoto should be more open into peoples likes these days. Mario & FPS = Great.

Am I the only one who instantly thought of that segment of the E3 2011 video where they were showing off the Wii U Zapper and aiming at Reggie, Iwata, and Miyamoto in those windows? That's what I think of when he mentions FPS something that involves Miis.

No surprises here, i've read somewhere that he plays a lot of FPS, i think it was on a magazine, sorry couldn't find the source.

 

[ComeTurismO]

Well, even though as I said a few posts ago, i find it very surprising. FPS is so different from Nintendo, It's going to be very weird and different actually.

its gonna be bad. trust me.

 

[TripleSMoon]

its gonna be bad. trust me.

"Bad" as in, "I love the powerglove... It's so bad," or "bad" as in CoD?

I think Miyamoto could make a good FP game like Mirror's Edge, but I don't see how the man hell-bent on innovation could do an FPS that isn't derivative.

Well hey, why not? Different is good! Take a look at Metroid Prime.

My point was that I don't think he can make an FPS that isn't derivative, not that it wouldn't be great if he could. Metroid Prime is a great example (though I was talking about it with someone the other day, who insisted it's more adventure than FPS, but I'd say it's more FPS than ME)

 

[TripleSMoon]

I agree. Metroid Prime is first person, but more of an exploration type game. A metroid game with an emphasis on more shooting and fighting while retaining those elements would be really cool.

 

[Catastrophic]

I wouldn't be surprised if it was a Star Fox game

 

[GeekyGuy]

Well, it wouldn't be the first time...

Hm..

Now thats a game i would buy.

 

[supermario5029]

I've read this on IGN, I was shocked too, how weird, if he made one, they would get a LOT of money! Maybe because he saw Zombi U.

Hm..

Awesome!

Meh, if he wants to, who cares? Those games sell well. It's a good idea, even if some of us are sick of the FPS invasion.

Since when is it an invasion? It's a popular genre since it was invented and it will remain that way until the end of the world because First Person is immersive.
