Forums - Nintendo - RETRO working on something, "you’ll be very excited"

I wonder when they're going to release screenshots, vids etc.

I hope it's a revived Raven Blade or at least a new IP, I want to see Retro's talent not be completely focused on random dormant Nintendo franchises.

Raven Blade would be great- a new IP, 3rd person action/adventure game, wasn't it? It'd be good if Retro were allowed that kind of freedom with their project, rather than being assigned to another Nintendo IP. I think they've earned it.

Sorry, it seems unlikely.

" "I always like reading the posts about Raven Blade. There's this underground mystery about that game. When you start reading the blogs and newsgroups and what have you, there's always this post that says, 'Oh, they're going to work on Raven Blade' or 'I wonder if they're bringing Raven Blade back?' And at one point I went back and had them burn the last copy of Raven Blade -- and this was probably two or three years ago -- and I looked at it," says Michael Kelbaugh, president of Retro Studios. He's a straight shooter who possesses the managerial skills so lacking from Retro in previous years and he's also a collector of fine vodka. "I just couldn't believe that we even came close to making anything like that because it was absolutely horrible." Like I said, he's a straight shooter and frankly, I'm a forced to agree. I caught an early glimpse of Raven Blade gameplay footage years back and it was uninspired and underdeveloped. Had I not known better, I would've never pegged it from the same studio behind Prime. "

Tales? You sure you're talking about the right series when it comes to no multiplayer?

Yeah, forget I threw that in there. When I first saw the trailer I sort of assumed there wouldn't be any. If there is multiplayer, it's not a game I'd call multiplayer focused. Having the option there is definitely nice, though... Hell, I miss the 2-player option Final Fantasy had (in 6).
