Miyamoto Hoping Nintendo “Put More Energy” In Pikmin And Star Fox

In a recent Q&A with Apple to promote Super Mario Run, Shigeru Miyamoto was asked about what games he was passionate about that “never quite made it”. Miyamoto responded by saying,…

“I always wanted [Star Fox protagonist] Fox McCloud to be a bit more popular than he is, and I think another one would be Pikmin… I think I’ll need to put some more energy into these two.

“The Pikmin are very unique characters that I worked directly with the designer on to create, so I like them quite a bit.”
