This year could be a huge year for video games. That's what folks say every year, and that's what we are saying about this one.
In the upcoming issue of Japanese game magazine Famitsu, some of the industry's biggest names talk about their current projects and hinted at things to come. Let's have a look:
Konami
• Hideo Kojima: He thinks that 3D televisions will become the norm. Kojima declare this year the "Year of Peace Walker". He also mentioned that Peace Walker will have a very long story and expressed his desire to make another home console title.
Capcom
• Ryozo Tsujimoto: When asked what's going on with the next Monster Hunter, Tsujimoto replied, "Well, what should we do?" When Famitsu asked if there will be a sudden announcement, he told the magazine to look forward to something.
• Jun Takeuchi: The Resident Evil 5 talked about the necessity of appealing to a world-wide audience.
Level-5
• Akihiro Hino: The Level-5 CEO announced that there will be a "surprising announcement" this year.
Nintendo
• Eiji Aonuma: When asked whether the game will go on sale this year, "We're doing everything we can to have people play the game as soon as possible." At the year's E3, he says he'd like to have something in playable form. (However, this is not confirmation it will happen, it is just his desire.)
Other designers sounded off as well. SEGA's Toshihiro Nagoshi (Yakuza, Super Monkey Ball) talked about the importance doing titles that stand out, while Square Enix mentioned it was working on a number of non-Dragon Quest titles.

There's an interesting piece up over on Capcom's Japanese Street Fighter blog today, showcasing some of the concept art used during the production of Street Fighter IV.
Of particular interest is this show of the various art styles the team toyed with before settling on the "bubbly", rounded and colourful look of the final game. You can see them in the screen above, showing a Ryu that at times looks like he fell out of Street Fighter III, and at other times walked straight out of the Street Fighter II anime.
There's plenty of insight into the development process to be had in the full interview, which has been translated by the fighting game nuts over at Shoryuken.
第16回:キャラクターデザインについて [Capcom]
There are plenty of things to love about Final Fight. There's the ridiculously diesel, shark pile-driving wrestler-turned-mayor the story is centered around, Mike Haggar, and the fact that citizens in Metro City like to store whole turkey dinners inside of dirty oil drums. And, after 20-plus years, somebody's finally getting around to making a movie.Continue reading Fan-made Final Fight movie trailer is pretty good, actually
