I don't think something like a brand new 2D Zelda would be seen as small enough for Nintendo to give it to a third party company nowadays sadly, despite how cool another Capcom 2D Zelda would be. Seriously though, if Nintendo isn't going to make new entries in a lot of their franchises, I think letting prolific third parties make new entries in them rather than just pumping out more remakes would be a much cooler solution. If we get a remade 2D Metroid or another remade Zelda on the Switch instead of a new game ... my god ... |
Granted, I haven't played it beyond the demo, so it could just be Crypt of the Necrodance with a Zelda skin, meaning that Nintendo greenlighted something that was already finished and proven instead of taking a chance on a wild card. It's still pretty telling of how Nintendo is willing to let third parties use its IPs now, especially after those CDi games.
