No 3D Mario games or Mario Kart no matter how great they are could possibly appease my disapointment if we once again don't hear about Retro's project and if it's not Metroid Prime4. The only possible thing that could make it easier for me to swallow my disapointment would be great footages of Smash.


I'm actually really hoping that Retro's new project is a new IP... They are working on two games, though.


I would'nt mind that but I would still be slightly disapointed. I'm not one of those who automaticaly associate new IPs to something great, meanwhile I know that the Metroid Prime series is one of my favorite while a new IP could end up being something not nearly as good as planned.

Aslong as this new IP is a ''hardcore'' game and not a ''kiddie'' game. As a nintendo fan I rly like kiddie games, but it's not what the WiiU needs right now, it needs a hardcore Scifi shooter that will attract the older crowd and to make ppl think that WiiU can be a serious quality console. If they are working on DKCR2 or a new IP with cute little characters jumping around I think I will smash my WiiU, not because it will suck, but because it's not what I want or need from my WiiU right now.


Sure, a new IP isn't always a good thing, but a new Retro IP would almost definitely be awesome. I can't really see them coming out with a "kiddy" game. That can be left to Nintendo's other studios. At the same time, though, I think there are more than enough Scifi shooters in the market without Nintendo releasing one as well. Metroid Prime was great, but I feel like they should let Retro do their own thing for once, whatever that may be. I'm hoping it's "mature," and not a shooter, but I guess we'll see soon enough.

Also, a new IP would mean new potential characters for Smash Bros. :P
