"We're making Pikmin."

That's what Shigeru Miyamoto told those who attended Nintendo's developer roundtable tonight. The announcement came during a Q&A time only when veteran journalist Chris Remo pressured Miyamoto into slipping the news with a question about core gamers and whether or not games like Pikmin are coming.

This news comes after Miyamoto hinted to IGN that the Pikmin team could be making something, and it now looks like that certainly is the case. We may not know anything specific for a while, but it should be exciting to see if Nintendo divulges any details in the coming months.

Nintendo's press conference isn't until tommorow, but they've already dropped an interesting announcement regarding the Wii remote, as IGN reports that a press release revealing the existance of a new remote accessory dubbed "MotionPlus" has been issued.

MotionPlus is a plug-in device that will hopefully improve games by "more quickly and accurately reflecting motions in a 3-D space." It works in conjunction with the accelerometer and the sensor bar to allow more precise movements with the remote.

Although details are scarce and probably won't be revealed until tommorow, this sounds like it could greatly improve controls for shooters and and other games requiring a lot of pointing. Let's keep our fingers crossed.
