Forums - Nintendo - How would a Nintendo FPS be like?

Netyaroze on 14 January 2014

I want to see a cross between Skyrim and Zelda real bad. I always thought Zelda should have a vast open world with tons of stuff to discover. FPS well, I would like to see a Story driven fps. Bioshock/Half Life style.

Nintendo should really use like 5% of their ressources to do something completly different from time to time to see how it turns out.

Metroid Prime was classic Metroid formula in first person.  Not a shooter with stuff added.

I know that's the approach they took when they designed it, obviously.  I'm just saying that on paper you've got all these elements, and it's a shooter at heart.  Sort of like how you can claim a band is "post-neo grindcore" or whatever the hell, but at the end of the day it's still rock.


No, it is not a FPS in any use of the term, nor is Fallout 3, nor is Portal.  Metroid Prime is an adventure game, Fallout 3 and RPG, Portal a puzzle game.  All three focus on each type of gameplay, you just shoot things because they are obstacles to the main gameplay types of adventuring, RPGing and puzzle solving.  An actual first person shooter meanwhile has the focus being on shooting and that being the main gameplay, it isn't an obstacle to main objective, it is the main objective.

I understand what you're saying, but I can see it both ways.

Geist is actually probably your answer as Nintendo directly (from Japan) outlined the game structure and design in many instances, even if it's not a spectacular game per se.

The developer wanted to make more of a standard FPS, they found themselves butting heads with Nintendo who wanted to make it more of an adventure game.

Isn't Metroid Prime an FPS? or a "first person adventure" is something else?

It would be like: me losing all faith in humanity for good. Because Nintendo is better than that.

I would like to see Sim City on WiiU, would be awesome, or a Wing Comander comeback with very deep simulation. Or , anything but a FPS really.


But if it's Nintendo, it'll probably have a unique spin that makes it stands out. And NIntendo could make an otstanding FPS if they wanted to. Remember - it was NIntendo that published Goldeneye 007 and Perfect Dark.

It would be called Super mario U Splat.


Based in the mario universe where mario shoots his enemies with a painball gun. Leaving red ink on his foes. Luigi by default would have green ink.



Nobody's perfect. I aint nobody!!!

I guess you are right...

I think they can either do Disaster - Day of Crisis right or revive Geist or do something I don't expect

If it has Wii or Mii or U or Super or Ultimate or New or anything crap like that in the title... then I wont give it any time
