Forums - Nintendo - What do YOU think Nintendo's S.T.E.A.M is?

A month or so back, Nintendo filed a trademark for a game named S.T.E.A.M: Strike Team Eliminating the Alien Menace. It was weird because it was out of nowhere. No one predicted it and no website said that Nintendo were going to file a trademark for it. I was wondering what people think of it and what they think it is. What genre, concept, or even setting? Is this Miyamoto's IP? Retro's second game? Maybe just a regular announcement?

To me, it sounds like a FPS, but not a military one but an alien shooter. There has been sepculation that Miyamoto's IP is a FPS so this might be it. I think this is going to be a Metroid Prime x Call of Duty game. The aliens and  creatures may be similar to those in Metroid games but the whole Strike Team being like a high tech Call of Duty alien hunting army. 

I just hope that if it is an alien type FPS, I hope Nintendo announce a military FPS to provide an alternative to BF and CoD, and Halo and Titanfall, but it must obviously be unique. 

What do you think S.T.E.A.M is?

I reckon it'll look somewhat similar to Jet Force Gemini



I think it's the new FPS IP. Now, I'm sorry, but why does this sound so childish? Not that I don't truly have anything against the title, but.. Strike Team Eliminating the Alien Menace? Ehhh..



A toilet that shoots steam up your butt to clean it.



Consoles: 3DS, Wii U, and Vita soon. Super Paper Mario fan.

Ah man if it's an FPS i'll be really disappointed. I was hoping for something along the lines of either a RPG or a Animal virtual pet simulation type game :X.

It should just be STEAM.

I think Nintendo needs more a shooter than another pet sinulation

I've never heard this idea put out there yet, but could this game possibly be Nintendo's NFC game?


Maybe it could be like Skylanders but with aliens and creatures.



It's a secret agreement with Valve about STEAM and the eShop/next gentendo. Obviously.



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.
