Shigeru Miyamoto is a busy guy. He’s in charge of pretty much every important franchise at Nintendo, and has confirmed that he’s currently working on Pikmin 3 and Luigi’s Mansion for the Wii U. However, he seems to be working on a brand new franchise in addition to the games that have already been announced.

In an interview with Zoomin Games, Miyamoto discussed the expectations that have been placed on him by fans, and how he strives to live up to their demands. He also noted that despite the pressure to hit grand slams, he has no fear of developing all-new project.

The legendary developer is the mind behind some of the biggest characters in the industry, most notably Super Mario. Anything he makes usually ends up being well received and well remembered, but it’s been quite some time since he had his hands in a completely original property. It will be interesting to see what he’s up to.

There’s no official word on what Miyamoto is developing or when it will come out – stay tuned for updates as they roll out. In the meantime, do you think Miyamoto is over-hyped, or that he truly is one of the best in the world?
