I think they kind of have to make Metroid. It's what everyone wants from them. Even if they're not exactly excited by the franchise, they have a job. If some of the members of the team aren't that excited about Metroid...then make Metroid in a way that would excite you. Basically, if Retro's new game is not Metroid there will be pitchforks and rioting and flames and all those things we do when we don't get our way. DK..twice...ok...now you're just asking for an uprising. Oh...and Retro...don't cop out with Metroid Pinball 2, either.

This.

Nope, they must do a new Metroid title. Fans can't stop requesting it; http://kotaku.com/shigeru-miyamoto-we-have-an-answer-to-your-question-1597993025

Retro itself has said they want to showcase Wii U's power: http://au.ign.com/articles/2014/02/28/wii-u-is-a-powerhouse-says-donkey-kong-country-developer

I don't think they like the idea of investing resources on a new IP, so using an existing Nintendo franchise it's more probable. Only Metroid has the chances of doing that.

My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.

Ok so what do they do, Metroid Prime 4?? Continuation of a series thats been dead since 09. Or do they reboot the series again, even if they take a similar approach to the Prime Trilogy. Are they even capable of making an epic game like this in HD?? I mean they are a rather small studio for such a large project and since the Prime Trilogy ended they have lost some rather key members of the team.

Personally I think they would be better off moving on to something new and not being held to a previous standard I dont think they can live up to.

Gonna love the teaser trailer for it. It will probably start off with a banana peel to let Metroid fans rage and then proceed to the actual reveal of a new Metroid game.

They needed three years for making the two Donkey Kong games, so while they must do a new Metroid game or something equally massive, I pretty much agree, they can't. There's the Diddy Kong Racing rumor and I think it's going to be that.

My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.

Probably the only person on here who would be happy if it were another DKC game. Seriously, Tropical Freeze is my favourite Wii U game by miles.

I'd be happy to wait for that one, though, and see them work on something else first, especially something not related to an existing IP since they're such an obviously talented bunch of developers. Then a third DKC game in a couple of years. :D

I wouldn't mind, I absolutely love DKC games. But I agree, I'd be happy to wait for it. I really do think they are working on something ambitious like a new Metroid.
