You forgot about Hunters and Pimball :P

I believe Retro will come back to doing a Metroid game, but now a 2D decent one, since Iwata will fire Sakamoto for going insane (I would at least).


lol.  Iwata's more likely to shut down Retro than he is fire Sakamoto.  SPD1 has at least proven they can craft original hits (Wario Ware, Rhythm Heaven, Tomodachi Collection), which more than can be said for Retro.  Other M might've bombed, but SPD1's been so overwhelmingly successful (on such tiny budgets), that it doesn't matter.

I don't recall saying SPD1. Just firing Sakamoto is enough, bring another dude on his place, because it is obvious he doesn't know how to run his job.

Sakamoto runs SPD1.  Those are all his games.

Iwata's not going to fire someone who's been with the company over 25 years and created a simple Mii sim that sold 3.5m in Japan alone.  It's obvious Sakamoto's made serious cash for Nintendo this gen, even despite Other M tanking.  "don't know how to run his job" is so insanely far from the truth, I don't even know how to respond to it.
