Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Dead Nintendo Franchises to Revive? (Round 2)

 

Which dead Nintendo franchise do you wanna see come back the most?

Star Tropics 19 10.33%
 
Punch-Out!! 15 8.15%
 
Chibi-Robo!! 5 2.72%
 
Golden Sun 51 27.72%
 
Panel de Pon/Puzzle League 3 1.63%
 
Wave Race 23 12.50%
 
Nintendogs 8 4.35%
 
WarioWare 11 5.98%
 
1080 10 5.43%
 
Kid Icarus 39 21.20%
 
Total:184

I don't know who actually owns the IP, but we need another Mischief Makers game.



Around the Network

Kid Icarus (after that sweet 3DS game, it's already past time for a new game)
Nintendogs (seriously, I want a new one, maybe for smartphones, not just in the Switch)
WarioWare (same that Nintendogs)
Punch-Out! (not now because of Arms, maybe in two years?)

Star Tropics.


Again.

Such underrated gem from the NES. Startropics could work very well as a modern adventure game. 

Still... I really miss Nintendo sports games, specially Wave Race and Excite Bike. Oh, 1080 Snowboarding too. 



Unquestionably Chibi-Robo! Followed by Warioware. Really hoping they aren't "dead" franchises!

WarioWare probably is because of the failure of Game & Wario.

Well i hope not. I mean i quite enjoyed it but it was clearly a cheap, rushed attempt to cashgrab. Aside from the "mum" mingame it really was only warioware in name only. I hope Nintendo realise that poor attempt/execution=bad sales rather than the game buying public being disinterested with the franchise. We really need a warioware Switched! with the series going back to its roots.

 

Btw, again, excellent choices. Personally i'd genuinely like to see them all resurrected for the Switch!

Wouldn't we all? ^^

When i was researching Nintendo franchises, as i'm sure you did before creating these threads, i found several that i'd never heard of but intrigued me. Puzzle league excepted i'd definitely love to try the rest for Switch. Positive there would be a few gems in there! I was genuinely surprised just how many franchises Nintendo has. It's literally approaching 50. They will never run out of franchises, that's for sure.



Btw, may i suggest the "Wii series"? Or did i miss it in the 1st thread?

No, and I don't think it'd be a good idea to revive the Wii series, since it was tied-in with the Wii and Wii U.

If done right it could do very well but i think Nintendo would have to rebrand it but at the same time keep people aware of its connection to the "wii sports phenomenon".
