"Miyamoto explained to Kotaku that if he were to build a first-person shooter, it might be different in structure than typical FPS games, and perhaps not particularly violent. He said he was specifically enthused with the idea of a game that allows players to look around and fully explore a 3D space."

I like the idea he has, I really hope he takes this on at some point after Pikmin 3 and his new IP are done.

I now know why 2012 is the end of the world, Miyamoto wants to make an fps. Dear god help us all.....

/joking

Sounds interesting, an fps with a Miyamoto design flavor and art style and tight gameplay would be nice.

So he's saying that there is stuff to be done with the first-person perspective besides military shooters?

My god, it's like he read my mind!

Get used to it. My mind has been read like 10x before

Just let Retro make another Metroid Prime, even though it's an FPA and not an FPS. They could include more action though, to make it FPS.

[Blake]

Cool. This should be good!

[Hinkik]

That would been epic.

I actually really want to see how he would do a FPS.

[MorbidGod]

Anyone else think this is his new IP? I meant he doesn't actually say it isn't right?

"I actually do kind of want to make a first-person shooter, but I don't have time," he said.

So nah, it isn't his new IP, sadly.

I keep reading this as "I want to make a new Zelda!"

*Reads title* DEAR LORD, HELL HATH FROZEN OVER! (true story)

In all serious though, I kinda like his ideas here. I'd definitely like to see what he could do with the first-person perspective.

[Mignaga]

If I weren't terribly tired of shooters I might be enthusiastic about it. Still if it has Miyamoto's name attached to it I will buy it on the first day anyways. Lol.

[WisdomPowerCourage]

First person shooter as in first person Link shooting beasts with his bow.

Nope, Non-Specific Action Hero is obviously his new character for his new superhero adventure game where the hero helps youths.
Just like he said a few years ago, one of his new hobbies is to help out at a local youth centre.

[Nin_Stream]

I would be interested. Hard to say though how it would work at being different then typical FPS games. It would be a good art style not realistic. He said not as violent...hmm Maybe like Starfox Assault on Gamecube? lol. You got to explore around in that.

Zelda FPS; Link puts the master sword in the rock in the temple of time just at the moment that ganondorf's dark mystical soul powers shoot a ray of dark power at the temple of times steeple causing link to not go backwards 7 years but 700 years into the future, the mastersword turns into a master laser rifle, and everything has a steampunk theme

Sweet!

I hate to point this out but a nonviolent fps had been done and was fantastic. Portal and portal 2 are shining examples of how this can be done. However if nintendo wanted to try their hand at this infant genre then I would be more than interested.

[Alianjaro]

Yeah I remember back in the days I read something similsr to that. In fact, his desire to make an FPS is not new. It would be awesome.
