Shigeru Miyamoto is inevitably asked when the next Mario game is during promotions for The Mario Super Bros. Movie, and he always has coy answers ready.
During a variety interviewafter the interviewer asks when we can expect the next Mario game, Miyamoto replies, “Stay tuned for future Nintendo Directs.”
Does that mean a Nintendo Direct in the near future or a Nintendo Direct next year? Or maybe the following year? Nobody knows. It’s a perfect deviation. miyamoto was asked a similar question during an IGN interview, and responded, “Nintendo is always working on Mario.”
Mario is Nintendo’s biggest IP, so gamers probably don’t have to worry about the next Mario game not coming; it’s just a matter of when, something Miyamoto doesn’t have an answer for gamers yet.
