In a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, Nintendo legend Shigeru Miyamoto revealed that although he could make a game like Halo, he simply choses not to. Not surprising, since all the games he has created have either been kid-centric or at least kid-friendly.

However, maybe it’s time to start developing more mature games. According to Miyamoto, people in Japan are losing interest in the Zelda series. Twilight Princess for the Wii and GameCube have sold well below initial expectations. Is it time to re-invent the Zelda series with a more mature storyline? Not saying it has to be a gore fest, in fact that wouldn’t be the way to go with it. Instead, create a deeper, darker storyline, which would involve you playing as the series’ antagonist Ganondorf. Something like that would be cool, rather than the standard Link save the world story.
