Except, "dark and mature" games are quite capable of flopping on the Wii U too. So far nothing has reliably sold well on the system outside of Mario games.

NSMBU, Mario 3D World, and Mario Kart 8 are going to be the no. 1/2/3 selling games on the system until Smash Bros. catches 3D World, and that's another game that prominently features Mario.

I don't think Metroid will honestly do that great on the Wii U either. Retro's probably better off working on something new.  

Or maybe Nintendo could let them collaborate on a third party IP ... remember Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes made by Silicon Knights under Nintendo.

Maybe they could do a Resident Evil game or something. 

I already said that, that it doesn't have to be Metroid. Just something with appeal beyond the existing fanbase.
