That Retro is developing Recore.

Quite a few of the staff from the Metroid Prime trilogy remain at Retro.

yeah the janitors lol

but seriously, their next game should be a big game, new ip or not should be something iconic.

Cant really understand why people say this is a bad starting lineup. It would probably rank up as one of the best if not the best of all time. Combining the Wii U, 3DS, PS4, Vita and Xbox One lineup doesnt have as much quality as this looks to have.

But, gamers be greedy.

Wii U U.S. launch: November 18, 2012

Well aware of the launch titles. Your post did a good job of supporting my claim though.

Animators, artists, and engineers actually. :P

It's going to be more about what the system actually is, than the games. I've never had a problem with the games. Didn't ever buy a Wii U, due to that huge controller.



Ive already decided to wait a year or so, and see what stuff they ll have out or announced within that 1year.
I ll get zelda on the Wii U.



I should mention that I'd also be far more inclined to get it day 1 if it launches at the ideal $199 price point.



I already plan on buying NX day 1.

Tropical freeze was amazing! And 3D world was ok

It was good, but it was sorely lacking in ambition and not what I wanted from a studio with as much potential as Retro.

I am curious as to why you think Retro has so much potential?

This seems like a common myth among Internet Nintendo fans. Retro was being built up to be an independent studio, with Metroid Prime 3 being the project they had the most independence on. But the game didn't turn out to be anything special aside from the IR aiming. They then went back to being more dependent with DKCR, and even more outside help with DKCTF. They are not a very productive studio, and few people seem to work there very long, as their staff seems to change up heavily from game to game since Metroid Prime 2.
