Metal Gear Solid creator Hideo Kojima has revealed we can expect an announcement regarding what he's working on at the Tokyo Game Show next year, although for the time being is knee deep in Metal Gear Online.

"Until the end of this year, I have my hands full with Metal Gear Online, but at next year's show, I think it's okay that I should be able to announce something," Kojima said during a talk at this year's show.

Kotaku also reports that Kojima seemed a bit down on the Japanese video game industry, noting that when compared to Western titles, "Japan has lost".
