Why There are No New Ideas in Video Games

Is anyone else as surprised and disappointed as me that there isn't a new IP for the 3DS coming? I'm sure Miyamoto can do a lot of cool stuff on that.

That suddenly reminds me: we never got the promised Pikmin 3 for Wii.

I swore Nintendo has announced at least one new IP for the 3DS, didn't they demo that submarine game at e3?

Anyhow, that's the other thing about new IPs, its sometimes hard to gain interest in them. I mean even if Nintendo had shown like 10 new IPs with the 3Ds people would have gravitated towards the known quantities to see how they are enhanced by the new device.
