Ther's been at least 5 Tomb Raiders already, a couple of ridge racers, a load of FIFA games that are almost identical and even more sequels coming out soon.
What I'm trying to say is won't someone bring out something fresh and new nobody has tried.
Take examples of Deus Ex(a good mix of shooting and RPG exploring)
Vib ribbon (strange but addictive) and what about The Sims (different from many other games around but addictive as well).
There may well be a new genre in the near future as the consoles get more powerful. With more new genres we can bring more of a good range of games. People could use several genres in their games and bring out something new and different to the gaming world.
And the companies may benifit from it with big sales on their new product.

Miyamoto, as lead developer at Nintendo, will probably retire in a couple of years or so anyway, so Id assume hed be training an understudy to fill his role when he steps out of the limelight. I would say that hes one of the greatest games developers of all time. He is NOT CEO of Nintendo, as you refer to him as. You may get something new, but I think they should start to employ young people fresh out of university to create new interesting games, but that would give games programmers a very short shelf-life because the companies would want to rehire to gain new ideas for games from the youth.

I think there might be a new Zelda on every Nintendo Machine that is launched and a Sonic on all Sega machines that will be released. Has anyone thought of what will happen when the big guys pass away (yes Miyamoto, don't sob) we'll have their children in charge next of all the Companies!
That might be the start of something new that will happen to gaming.

Why did you say you couldn't get it otherwise.
Don't you have any money you save up?
That's how I get my games. The best thing is to ask for a game in christmas or at your birthday you will get it free like the gameaday.
