The full investor Q&A transcript is online right now, but it's only in Japanese. An English version will come up soon, but we can sift through some of the few translated details for now.
- Miyamoto is working on both a DS game that's played in the home, and a DS game for a public space (we heard of the public space game before)
- Miyamoto is exploring the public space option thanks to Dragon Quest IX's public exchange mode
- Miyamoto's official statement on cats: "Also, I've recently been caring for cats. That is all." to which Iwata replied: "He just gave a big hint."
Is that an actual game hint? That we don't know, as text doesn't really convey the difference between a joke and a fact. I'm thinking more along the lines of a joke, but you never know!

Well, I'm gonna take the 'hint' side; I expect a cat-related game in the foreseeable future. I, uh, I hope I'm wrong
It just confirmed.
I knew it! lol
anyway I like cats lol and I thought Sukeban Shachou Rena Wii looked funny...too bad it tanked...=[
I bet his reference was deliberate
I'm thinking it will be Nintencats too, but oh well, that's okay. Those games just aren't my thing.
You say that like it's a bad thing! Bigger library = more awesome support
The more, the merrier I say, more even so with first party games.
Although I guess it'll end up being something along those lines or Wii Music or similar stuff.
please?
Eh, well, this Nintencats idea sounds like the most likely hint but I doubt they'd want to release that on the DS. Nintendogs still sells and the concept would be too similar to warrant another one.
Perhaps this is a Wii game? That way they could differentiate it from Nintendogs and the DS.
Or it could have something to do with another franchise. It's quite a stretch, but Twilight Princess had pictures of Link taking care of cats in a forest and I recall Miyamoto hinting that you'd be raising animals. It's possible I suppose.
My money is on a pet sim though. Much, much more obvious hint towards that.
That's why it was a BIG hint... jk.
isn't there a dream cats game by the maker of the dreamcast ?
What exactly would fit into the categories of "DS game you play at home" and "DS game you play in public?" I just play my DS at home most of the time anyway.
came out.
Maybe he was joking that its a hint that Miyamoto's becoming crazy, continuing off the tape measurer thing from the last interview, and it doesn't mean anything?
I don't want to get my hopes raised too high for anything, so unless (or until) final and official word comes out, I'll just assume that's it.
Not to mention Nintendo somehow wanting to go back to the pet simulation waters that Ubisoft tainted blood red with their flood of Petz and Imagine games.
The first one: something for the the DSi Blockhead [my name for the DSi XL/LL]?
Good one!
