1. What $100 million dollar acquisition did Nintendo make in Q4 of their fiscal year?
We haven't heard a peep about this all E3. Conservative guess is that it's probably Amiibo or QoL related. But could just as well be something else. Maybe they bought another studio?
2. What is Retro Studios working on?
Recent announcements help us rule out a few possibilities. They're probably not working on Starfox -- that's Miyamoto's projcet. STEAM is from Intelligent Systems. They don't appear to be collaborating on Zelda U or any of the other announced titles at this time or we'd likely hear about it.
Here's five options, ranked by what I consider their general liklihood
1. Metroid Wii U/4. The most wanted choice.
2. DCK:TF DLC. The most conservative choice.
3. Metroid 3DS. The okaaay choice
4. Raven Blade. The surprise choice.
5. Turok reboot. The a-man-can-dream choice. (Retro was formally Iguana Entertainment, which made Turok on N64. Ninty would have to buy the rights to the IP to make it though).
What do you think is going on?
I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016
