Forums - Nintendo - Which franchise is next for Retro?

Kayima's been pushing for it so hard, I half expect Platinum Games to get signed for the next Star Fox.  I really wish Nintendo would work with Nagoshi's team (Sega NE1) again on a new F-Zero.

hopefully not donkey kong. They are too talented for that. Make some new Adult IP for next gen would be cool.

are you serious? was any part of any of that post said with a straight face and a sound mind?


yes it was, Retro are better then that. If Nintendo is to capture back some of the core audience they need a good fps, or another genre adult oriented game. Retro would have the skill set to achieve this.

 

Donkey Kong can be made by any one of the Nintendo Teams.

The only way I'd be happy seeing Retro make an FPS is if it was something in the Perfect Dark/Goldeneye/Timesplitters mold rather than having them follow the current obsession with military FPS.

In fact I think a little part of me would die if I saw a Nintendo first party game released in that particular subsection of the FPS genre.

i want them to make metroid for 3DS! that would be so cool!



    R.I.P Mr Iwata :'(

I want them to make a Resident Evil-game



Starfox for the Wii.  It'll be announced next year and release that holiday season, it'll be one of the Wii's last big hits before it's sucessor is released.

My guess is that Retro's next project is either another Donkey Kong, another Metroid game, or a new IP.

 


Yeah. And I guess that tomorrow it will either rain, be sunny or neither. Profound guessing skills.

I think Nintendo will give Metroid back to Retro after the less than stellar Other:M.

Personally I think Other: M desevered to bomb for its stupid name alone. Other M? Seriously? It needs more explosiveness, like Metroid: Inception. Anything else would be better.

It's name makes perfect sense for the game.  The story focus's on samus' mother-daughter connection with the baby metroid and the whole series actually revolves around mother daughter relationships.  Mother-brain the pirates made to control the metroid.  Queen metroid which naturally controls the metroid.  In Other M Madeline and Melissa Bergman are introduced another mother-daughter relationship.  Samus's character never had a mother because her whole family was killed by Ridley and so she becomes attached to Adam as a sole parental figure, but he is of course male.  the name Other M was chosen because of it's obvious acronym MoM, or Mom.  The names not stupid, but someone who can't figure out what the game they just spent 10-12 hours playing is about possibly is.

I agree with you 1000000000000% ,

 

this is why I still play those games, including games on pc like Star Seige Tribes and Unreal Tournament (although they have some small military presence it is futuristic with unrealistic guns).

At least Duke is comings soon. Now I need to clean up my pc for that one haha.

Of course there's a reason to call it Other M, they didn't just pluck it from thin air. It makes a lot of sense too. But bottom line, it's still a very dull word for a game title. Mayaswell have called it 'Different M' or 'Relative M'. It has absolutely NO zing to it, no wow factor. Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, Halo: Reach, Burnout: Revenge, these are good subtitles. 'Other' never will be.
