They were all in teh pipeline until we heard from Rare that MS cancelled all their games.

Ghoulies 2 confirms that this is a joke.

This was way back when and we've heard nothing since.  With that said, I want a new Battletoads game.  I mean, who wouldn't want more of this hotness?

If they really bring Jet Force Gemini back i might reconsider getting an Xbox One. I was wishing Nintendo would buy the franchise and revive it one day cause at least they would take care of the game. I hope this is true btw.

Every now and then I pull out my old consoles to play these games. ATM into killer instinct again.

Too bad I won't be able to say this 10-20 years for now about these sequels (assuming they are in the works) on xbox one when the online service is down and I cannot check in or I've changed over consoles,

Good for people who were into KI. Smash consumed me over KI Gold, back in the 64 days. New Smash is coming out without the DRM = more hype.

Are you really serious about this, or just joking? If you are serious, were the cancellations before or after Kinect Sports?
