Nintendo's biggest non-traditional game yet Wii Fit is in UK shops next Friday, but creative mastermind Shigeru Miyamoto promises the company is still working on "the kinds of products we've always made" for the more traditional, analogue stick-twirling gamer (us!).
"As a designer, I'm always focusing on what is fun," he told site 1UP. "Ideas that people can enjoy.
"For me, I'm trying to entertain as many people as I can, creating games that the widest number of people can enjoy. Of course, that being said, we do have the existing teams at Nintendo working on the kinds of products we've always made over the years.
"The Zelda team is forming again to work on new games! But to me, it's about finding these new interactive experiences and bringing them to people."
Miyamoto also settles the WiiFit debate, saying, "yes, in my mind, I would say it is a video game." There you are then.
