Why not just have Diddy Kong DLC for Mario Kart? Same for F-Zero.

Buy all the Donkey Kong amiibos/VC games + Mario Kart 8 = Diddy Kong Racing Switch

Buy all the F-Zero amiibos/VC games + Mario Kart 8 = F-Zero Switch

Buy Double Dash, unlock 2 drivers/items mode. Buy SNES Mario Kart, unlock SNES tracks etc.

Seems a little excessive, and we'd rather just new Diddy Kong Racing and F-Zero games.

Good luck convincing Nintendo that a new F-Zero is worthwhile. I doubt Diddy Kong would do that well either, isn't half the cast in Mario Kart now anyway? Modding Mario Kart into DDR/FZ via DLC seems like a realistic solution to popularising F-Zero and buying the DLC might convince Nintendo to make new ones.

Don't Play Stationary 4 ever. Switch!

If you say so, but I still doubt that would work out so well.

Because Diddy Kong Racing and F-Zero don't play like Mario Kart at all lol that's like asking why they don't add a Samus Tunic to Zelda instead of making a new Metroid.

Have you ever played Diddy Kong Racing? Mario Kart 3DS has gliding, wouldn't take much to change that to flying and you'd have the same game.

1000cc, hover vehicles, no items/coins. They've already done half of it.

Diddy Kong Racing is probably my favorite N64 game. It's probably the game I'm most nostalgic over. So yeah, I have. It's not like MK8, like at all. They are two very different Kart Racers.

No arguing here.

Sry what!? :)

Despite some flaws Splatoon is great game and actualy one of biggest win for Nintendo this gen.

It has a lot of big flaws. Too many. Nothing a sequel can't fix. It's definitely not great as is, but it has potential. I don't care how much of a win it was for Nintendo lol I care about high quality games.

If game relly has too many flaws Splatoon would never be so popular and played game, and basicly one of bigget new IP in recent times. I get that you personaly dont like it but reality is diffrent, but for vast majority of people and players, Splatoon is great and very quality game with just some flaws like any other game.

To be fair, we don't know that the Splatoon game we saw is a remake (or even that it's anything more than a tech demo, but whatever)...
Splatoon at its core is a shooter, and it's not unusual for shooters to change very little from one installment to the Nestor reuse weapons, maps, etc...
Even the Mario Kart footage we saw doesn't confirm a remake...
We saw a new character, a new item mechanic, and a stage that has now been in three installments...
While it's not unreasonable to think we will get ports, it's not as if Nintendo has never surprised us...
And it's not as though Emily has never been wrong...

You really need to know difference between remake and remaster.

I talking about remaster not remake, that basically means upgraded graphics and some new content for already exist game.



speamig --

You need to do your home work on Splatoon.

That game is legit. And YES the motion aiming on it is better than dual analog OR IR pointer even as far as I'm concerned.

You need to play it for more than an hour to understand how good it is. It's in my opinion easily the best game Nintendo has made probably so far this decade, and I wish every single shooter (FP or third person) had Splatoon like aiming.

I really love DKR, but I'm not sure if DKR2 without Rare would be a great idea...

donkey kong country returns without rare was a great idea

Yes, that's true. My fears with a new DKR would be the following:

- Who would develop it? DKCR and TF were developed by Retro, but I don't see them developing DKR2 (specially after all the backlash they received for not developing Metroid Prime 4 or a more adult  IP). I think that DKR2 would need a big budget and a competent studio behind it to succeed.

- Which characters would appear? I know that most DKR characters were completely new (and probably not very charismatic, although I loved most of them), but I think that it would be strange if all DKR2 characters wouldn't have appeared in the first one.

- Would it be succesful? DKR appeared when 3D platformers were in its peak of popularity, so mixing them with a racing arcade game was great. Nowadays 3D platformers have almost disappeared, and  racing games seem to focus more on the online multiplayer. I know that 3D platformers may be experiecing a resurgence, but we still don't know how big it'll be.

Anyway, if Nintendo decides to create a new DKR and it's well made, it could be really wonderful and I'd be really hyped.

-Maybe Monster Games with Retro help, Nintendo itself said that Retro is big enough that can have multiple projects in same time.

-All DK characters with some guests that are outside universe. Characters are really not a problem.

-If game is good, easily could sell few millions.
