1) More "hardcore" Nintendo IPs make it to Wii.
I know we're getting Punch Out!! and Sin & Punishment 2 but I want F-Zero and the super-MattCassamassinaHyped Kid Icarus Wii!

2) Metroid Dread.
Nintendo can call it whatever they want -- all a guy wants is a WiiWare 2D Metroid title. I loved the Prime series but I cannot wait from a retro Metroid title. A Megaman 9-treatment would be much appreciated Nintendo!

3) Pikmin 3.
Self-explanatory. Do it Nintendo. Here's hoping for an E3 announcement!

4) New, mega, IPs from Nintendo.
Pikmin is the biggest new IP from Nintendo in the last decade. The Wii has yet to get a proper one not in the Wii____ range!

5) Golden Sun 3.
This is a personal favorite. I still want to know what happened to Alex Camelot!!

6) New Retro [EPIC] IP.
By Retro I don't mean old, I mean a Retro Studios IP. The developers behind the Prime series are secretly working on something big. I hope Nintendo do not announce it a couple of months before release only. A new IP needs hype and advertising. Don't let me down Nintendo please!

7) Expect the unexpected.
We all know Nintendo can be very secretive and I am sure they are cooking up something big, controversial and very unexpected. Wait for it.

this is probably one of the best of these ive seen. the guy is reasonable and doesnt seem the type to throw a tantrum if he doesnt get all he wants.   1,3,4,7 all seem reasonable. although whether theyll happen this year is debateable. i think nintendo will be pretty hard pressed to stop number 1 appearing every single year. i mean say we knew that nitnendo was bringing F-zero to wii by the end of the year,  people would still be clamouring for star fox, donkey kong ect. personally i think that golden sun 3 would be awesome!

 

Doesn't it seem like this person is actually more concerned about hype and promotion than the games themselves? I've seen a few other Nintendo fans like this. It's like he had more fun with Sakurai's regular SSBB development updates than he had actually playing Brawl.

I get the feeling that the "hardcore" fanbase is more upset about Nintendo's 60-day promotion strategy then they are with Nintendo's actual game development. They miss the hype and anticipation, even though the games still come.
