Prediction: Nintendo will announce everything for the wrong platform

The creator of Mother doesn't want to make any more, so I can't really blame them for not forcing it. Not every franchise needs to get continuous sequels. It's okay for a series to "end."

I fear that's what has happened to the majority of Nintendo's IPs.

Well F-Zero is just a racing game. Its story really doesn't matter. No F-Zero game has ever had online multiplayer, so that alone would make the series worth a revisit in my opinion.

Star Fox is an on-rains shooter. It's pretty much an arcade game. Short of getting a complete gameplay overhaul (making it more of a flight sim, like the Rogue Squadron games), I really don't see the point of more entries. The story was also wrapped up for the most part, even though it wasn't exactly good or important.

Metroid has been put on the backburner, but unlike Mother and Star Fox, its story is anything but finished. The established gameplay formula also works just fine as a modern release.

Basically, more Metroid and F-Zero are a must, Mother is complete, and Star Fox can stay dead and buried for all I care.

I agree.  Though seeing as Nintendo has been releasing 2D platfroms constantly for the better part of seven years, I don't see how a overhauled version of StarFox isn't something at least worth considering.  I think an F-Zero game in 1080p with stylish art deco graphics would be the shit.
