Personally I'd rather have a new (2D, HAND DRAWN, developed in-house at Nintendo) Metroid game on Wii U, in HD. That's what I want. I want a Super Metroid caliber game, the way it's meant to be played and seen. A game worthy enough to possibly even finally top (as if that were even possible) that great classic.
The rumor about Retro making Star Tropics is laughable. Not that I don't want to see a new Star Tropics. I've been waiting for a ST3 for decades. I love that series. But I'm not sure Retro would be the studio to do it. And again in this case, I'd rather see it in the style of it's predecessors, top down, same basic mechanics, sprite-based, just HD.
I would love to see Square give The Crystal Bearers another crack, with a sequel, still starring Layle. That game was SO close to actually being something. The graphics, the soundtrack, the story, the possibilities of the TK/levitation powers mechanic.....it had the potential to be a really great game. But I just think they didn't put the kind of effort into it that they would have into a mainline FF game, that's too damn bad. Because as it is, it was a good game, just flawed. A sequel, GREATLY expanding on the TK powers of Layle, actually letting you do a myriad of different things with them, really messing with your environment, more creative battle applications, etc., along with HD graphics and an all-around tightened and polished package...that would be great to me.
Then again, I also wouldn't mind seeing Square do something along the lines that they did with 4 Warrior of Light, for Wii U. Just a traditional, old school FF experience. That also would be cool.
I'm still going to hold out hope that I'll finally see Star Fox and Wave Race games this gen, GOOD ones. Same with F-Zero, though hopefully not as retarded hard as GX got.
As far as some of those other rumors go, I'd totally go for a Sega vs. Nintendo racer, so long as it was done well. In fact I think that would be a major coup for Nintendo, as it would hold infinitely higher appeal to a lot of gamers than the Olympics games do. And I still think it would be in both company's best interest to extend their partnership beyond three Sonic related games, and bring out some older Sega properties, like a new Shinobi, Golden Axe, maybe have Treasure come back and work on Shining Force 4, etc. A new Panzer Dragoon would certainly be welcome as well.
