I understand the need for people to want new IP for the sake of being trendy, but Nintendo already has a bunch of established IP's that don't get enough attention. Sony is proof enough that new IP's for the sake of new IP's don't sell great or mean good games being made. If the game idea sounds like it should belong to an established franchise, slapping a new name on it and generic story shouldn't be paraded around for the claims that it's a new IP. |
I don't think it's a matter of "being trendy", nor of "new IPs for the sake of new IPs" but more that a lot of people want to see Retro bring a kind of game to Nintendo hardware that doesn't necessarily belong as part of any existing franchise. People like their consoles to offer a variety of different games, and Nintendo's existing stable of IPs can't comfortably accomodate something in the vein of, say, Uncharted. It would make more sense for such a game to be a new IP instead of awkwardly shoehorning an ill-fitting existing IP onto it.
