Battletoads is a Franchise not a 1 hit wonder. Its a type of game that if its successfully they can easily make more of them especially for next gen. Plus BC will ensure the next Xbox has a good library of games to choose from.
MS have already showed the franchise importance by having 2 major Kameos in Shovel Knight and Killer Instinct plus a heavy focus in Rares Replay.
Announcement of the show at E3 for me. Very excited for it.

The basis for it not being a one hit wonder but a franchise is? Because the game have been dormant for decades, probably because they didn't see the potential to make franchise of it.

BattleToads has had many games, 4 to be exact with a bunch of ports on multiple platforms. Its not a 1 time IP that once done it cannot be done again (Cough SunSet Overdrive) type of game. Its Ninja Turtles but for the video game industry. Making a BattleToads game now does not mean they wont be able to make another in the future. It all depends on its popularity for the modern gamer. It can easily be done, much like it was in the past. The franchise has a monster amount of potential of becoming big again. And I simply cant wait. I am also not expecting this game to do wonders on the Metacritic system either nor does that matter to me. As long as its fun.
