Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Where is Retro Studios?

There last game released February 2014, and they haven't even hinted their next project yet. Usually, their devloppement cycle is around 3 years, with coproductions inbetween. Considering that we can't expect them to announce anything big shortly after E3, and that they wouldn't announce their big project less than half a year before release (I would have expected at least a year...), this will be by far the longest time we haven't seen anything of them.

 

What are they doing?



Bet with PeH: 

I win if Arms sells over 700 000 units worldwide by the end of 2017.

Bet with WagnerPaiva:

 

I win if Emmanuel Macron wins the french presidential election May 7th 2017.

Are you kidding me? We were literally just there for 6 days on a trip. If I had known I would have gone to there building.



I live near Austin myself. Personally I would love to be a tester for them or hell I'd even clean their toilets.

Didn't used to when I joined this site many years ago, but I live ahour an hour north of Austin now and work in Round Rock. I've been wanting to visit Retro for some time now just to have been there.

What would you do there though? I mean, random guy just walking in to an office building and walking around just sounds like a way to get the cops called on you

At least it would get me away from all the harassing planned parenthood people found around Austin.
