Emily Rogers: Nintendo Working on Unannounced Wii U Game [Update: Paper Mario]

When the game is revealed:

O_o I don't get it.
 
A franchise with fans? and not a an eShop title.

While I want it to secretly be Xenoblade Chronicles HD, that would defeat the point of the existence of the eShop version.

Also since Pikmin 4 has been basically announced by Miyamoto, that can be ruled out as well.

A console Animal Crossing or New Leaf HD would be kind of nice I guess.
 
At this point I'm really skeptical we'll see a Direct this or next month. I think with all the recent press releases and such around upcoming games that they might not bother with a Wii U/3DS-only Direct. We'll see though.

That's what I'm thinking. It wouldn't surprise me if we never get a Direct that only focuses on Wii U and 3DS again .
 
Most likely Pikmin 4 which was teased to have been done a while ago or something like that.

In my dream it would be one of the franchises Nintendo has neglected. Punch-Out, F-Zero, Metroid, Warioware.

I hope it is not something stupid or something we've gotten a game from.
 
Reasonable expectation: Metroid Prime 4

Pie in the sky: Metroid Prime Trilogy II with Prime 4, 5 and 6

What will probably happen: Rosalina's Amiibo Star Party
How is Metroid Prime 4 reasonable? You don't send an IP like that to die on a floundering console you launch it with a new console.

It's not a huge project.
 
Alright Nintendo fans. Calm your **** for one second. I know you are all very tense at the moment. Just go outside and take a deep breath.
 
Emily is a good source, as is Liam. I'm very curious to see what this is.

On the subject of what it could be, I'm not sure. Maybe Animal Crossing? I do think that their Animal Crossing assets used for amiibo Festival could be intended for more use as well, which would be fantastic.

He straight up lied about having sources and information he never had. Seeing his name associated with this makes me doubt it.
 
Wasn't there a Paper Mario U being rumored for a while? Having said that I would assume it's not something from Japan if these people have info.
 
It's almost certainly Pikmin 4. That's no secret, despite not having been announced. It makes the most sense for a Wii U title. Development probably continued right from Pikmin 3 to capitalize on the long investment.

I'd believe it if we were talking about Nintendo PR teasing a game, but I don't see why Emily Rodgers and co. would act like Pikmin 4 is a surprise to anybody.
 
Seems too late to be Animal Crossing. That's a game people will want to play for years. Unless it's cross-gen that is...

Just because it's not an eShop exclusive doesn't mean it's not a smaller title though, like New Super Luigi U or Captain Toad.

I'll take it, whatever it is. Wii U could do with another title this year.
