Garage, A New Team Of Developers Led By Shigeru Miyamoto

Gaming legend Shigeru Miyamoto, stated in an interview with Edge Magazine that he's leading a new team called Garage. Garage is the team responsible for making one of the most anticipated game in Wii U called Splatoon and other prototypes featured last E3 like Project Guard, Project Giant Robot and Starfox.

Splatoon and the three prototypes are the first games to emerge from Garage, a new Nintendo development programme set up last year in which developers break off into small teams and work on new ideas. “There are increasing numbers of young staff at Nintendo’s development studios these days,” Miyamoto says, “and these young guys really want to express themselves.” Work is done during office hours, but he compares Garage to an after-school club, in spirit if not in schedule. “Class time’s over: they gather together and think about new projects completely apart from their everyday business assignments. When all of those projects have advanced to a certain stage, we gather together and exchange opinions on the outcome of each of them, and together we decide which ones should continue. We may have shown several software titles at E3 [that came from Garage], but there are many others in development too.

In case a lot of you may not know, Shigeru Miyamoto told Edge that he wants to focus more on core gamers for Nintendo's upcoming games. Could the Garage Team be the key to make shigeru's new ambition for the company to be a success?
