I have a feeling Retro's game is in the Star Fox universe.

As much as i would love a new star fox. I don't really want retro to do it.

Do you guys seriously believe that Wind Waker HD will have new content? I really don't think so.

It's going to have more sailing yay, jk. I hope for at least a new temple but that is asking for to much already. Just hope it won't have to much bloom lol.

 

[Hermii]

I hope Retro is working on Star Tropics.

 

[L Thammy]

There was a rumor for Metal Gear on WiiU, right?
What if Nintendo announces that Metal Gear Rising 2 will be exclusive on WiiU?

It's actually going to be a remake of Penguin Adventure. It will serve as a canon recon of Metal Gear Solid 2.

 

[Kandinsky]

Even if I think Retro's overrated, as their only masterpiece is Prime, my dream game from them would be Star Fox. Won't happen tho and it will end up being Metroid Prime 4 which is fine by me.

 

[Nosgod]

As much as i would love a new star fox. I don't really want retro to do it.

I think most would agree that the next Star Fox should be done by Kamiya

 

[TheChits]

fixed!

After replaying Sin and Punishment 2 yesterday, I just want anything from Treasure

I know right? I'd also be ok with S&P 3 but since the only SF I'd want is starfox 64 on steroids (with the same VA) Treasure is by far the most qualified developer to pull it off.

 

[D-e-f-]

Do you guys seriously believe that Wind Waker HD will have new content? I really don't think so.

Nobody expects new content. We're expecting the "cut-because-not-enough-time" content from the original release.

gah...a new Sega developed f-zero...I can't even entertain the thought. My heart just can't take it.

Those dudes are making Yakuza games now.

As long as we're dreaming up fantasy Wii U projects...

Platinum games presents: Metroid X Vanquish

*head explodes*

Guek, why do you want another action-focused Metroid?

Right, the investors. Has Nintendo said anything about an Analyst Q & A Session at E3 this year? They usually have one: http://www.nintendo.co.jp/ir/en/library/events/120606/index.html

Also, you don't wanna miss this (due to those crazy questions):


This year the investors may provide even wackier comments than usual, because of PS4 and Xbox One.

Yes there is an investor/analysts meeting at E3. That was announced along with their other E3 plans in the April investor thing.

 

[guek]

Guek, why do you want another action-focused Metroid?

I want a good action focused metroid for a change

 

[Spongebob]

Has it been confirmed that we'll see more of "X" at E3?

 

[Azure J]

I think most would agree that the next Star Fox should be done by Kamiya

Nah.

Treasure gets StarFox, Kamiya gets Takamaru and a new cel-shaded Mystery At Murasame Castle game, and Retro gets StarTropics.

 

[CrisKre]

Has it been confirmed that we'll see more of "X" at E3?

Basically, yes. The creators retweeted the link to the direct. Historically that means we are getting more info.

 

[ozfunghi]

Didn't that get smuggled into Twilight Princess?

 

[Nekki]

DKCR invalidates your opinion man!! But yeah, SF wouldn't be bad. Why wouldn't people like it?? I mean, in what way do people think they'd screw it up? Or is it more a case of "talent best spent elsewhere"?

 

[D-e-f-]

Has it been confirmed that we'll see more of "X" at E3?

Not in any official manner. It got hinted at very strongly via a retweet of Takahashi's wife of the ND announcement (same thing happened before the January reveal). Which basically means, yes, expect more of X to be shown in the ND (99% safe).

Didn't that get smuggled into Twilight Princess?

I don't know.

I want a good action focused metroid for a change

But why an action focused Metroid at all? I loved Other M in spite of its narrative weaknesses but that was enough Metroid action. I personally want them to go back to exploring things and hanging out in dark, lonely caves.

 

[Taker666]

My gut says a Wii U Metal Gear game would actually be a Wii U Zapper game.

Speaking of the zapper..we know Headstrong is making a Wii U game. A new HOTD for the zapper isn't out of the question.

 

[SteeloDMZ]

Koyima should do Star Fox U.

 

[SodaBeam]

Nobody expects new content. We're expecting the "cut-because-not-enough-time" content from the original release.

That was supposedly used in later Zelda games, especially Twilight Princess. But even then it would be cool to see some kind of "proto-TP" dungeons transplanted back into Wind Waker.

 

[D-e-f-]

My gut says a Wii U Metal Gear game would actually be a Wii U Zapper game.

Speaking of the zapper..we know Headstrong is making a Wii U game. A new HOTD for the zapper isn't out of the question.

So like that MGS4 iOS game?

I want both ;_;

 

[D-e-f-]

I wont both ;_;

Well, yea. If that's an option I want both, too lol.

I want action-TPS-Metroid, exploration-FPA-Metroid and 2D sidescrolling-oldschool-Metroid

 

[JetBlackPanda]

Just give me something to put in my Wii U this summer and fall and it's a success. I am already in love with the machine I just need games!

 

[Xun]

It would make my day, if Iwata said he haid reassigned Koizumi and EAD tokyo to take over Zelda Wii U right after they are done with Mario, and Aonumas team has been tasked to create a brand new and creative IP.

It would be great to see a shake up of teams.

 

[StreetsAhead]

Just give me something to put in my Wii U this summer and fall and it's a success. I am already in love with the machine I just need games!

Confirmed to be releasing this Summer & Fall (June - November) in the US:
Pikmin 3, Game & Wario, NSLU, Sonic: Lost World, Wii Fit, Wii Party, Rayman Legends, Batman, Assassin's Creed, Scribblenauts, The Wonderful 101, The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker HD.

[Sadist]

Playing RE Revelations (again) on Wii U makes me want Revelations 2 with more Raid mode stuff. Capcom pls.

Oh right, Direct transscript

"Hello everyone, Satoru Iwata here with a very special Nintendo Direct. Today marks the start of the Electronic Entertainment Expo, or E3 for short, the largest videogame convention in the world in Los Angeles. That's why I'm standing in front of the LA Convention Center, to bring E3 news more "DIRECTLY!" to you. At E3 we always did a pressconference to share news of the latest developments regarding our gaming systems. This year we chose for a more focussed stream of information to everyone, so that's why you, the Wii U owner is watching this Direct. Why did we choose for this new format? So I can do this: *bows*"

01:00-05:00: Super Mario Microverse is announced. It's awesome.
05:01-09:00: Mario Kart Ultimate announced. So many options available. Deactivate the blue shell. GAF rejoices
09:01-15:00: The Wonderful 101 and Pikmin 3 reminders. Kamiya gets an interview afterwards via the E3 site. He and Iwata laugh a lot. Pikmin 3 trailer looks neat.
15:01-20:00: Wii Fit U and Wii U Party trailers. GAF freaks. FUCK YOU NINTENDO
20:01-24:00: The Legend of Zelda Windwaker HD; one new dungeon. GAF says it should have been two
24:01-32:00: Third party time. Ports like Watch_Dogs, AC IV etc. will come along, new footage from Scribblenauts, Batman AO, some unannounced ports... bit standard.
32:01-37:00: Sega deal regarding Sonic: more footage from Sonic Lost World and the new Sonic Party Game
37:01-40:00: Capcom? Nintendo vs. Capcom!!?? ... No it's Resident Evil. *
40:01-43:00: Third party exclusive which will freak out GAF *
43:01-50:00: Retro Studios! It's... whoa
50:01-52:00: crazy partnership with some developer*
52:01-55:00: Sakurai appears; "wha-what's this!!?? A Smash Bros. trailer!"
55:01-60:00: Reggie, Iwata and Miyamoto chatting it up with a giant Luigi and Non-Specific Action Figure.

* = Not very likely

Okay so I was messing about on my 3DS playing FE Awakening and I thought to myself "what if Nintendo port some 3DS games to Wii U or even some DS games like TWEWY" since it has two screens and shouldn't be too much effort. What do you guys think?

 

[Drago]

Koyima should do Star Fox U.

Yeah, I'd love a Silver developed Star Fox.

No, you're gonna buy the 3DS Player which attaches to your Wii U GamePad.

 

[javac]

So that's what the hole in the back of the gamepad is used for! D:

Oh shit I've just seen the image...so if the 3DS Player goes in the bottom what goes in the hole at the back D:?

 

[Roo]

Well, yea. If that's an option I want both, too lol.

I want action-TPS-Metroid, exploration-FPA-Metroid and 2D sidescrolling-oldschool-Metroid

To be honest, Metroid Other M was a marvel covering all those features
Gameplay wise, technically and visually, Other M was an amazing game that was totally eclipsed by its cheap narrative.

I wouldn't mind a sequel to that game without the baby iykwim :lol

 

[Gartooth]

I would love to see Star Fox given a revival by Kamiya's team at Platinum, I think a more over the top action approach would be a fun direction for the series.

When it comes to Retro I really want to see a new IP. Of course I would love Metroid Prime 4 or DKCR 2, but I think they have earned a chance to show what they are made of given how successful they have been.

 

[Yado]

I think Retro's game is going to be a brand new ip. Nintendo is always secretive but the way this game has been handled so far doesn't suggest that it's an established franchise.

Totally agree. That story-fiasco gave it a totally undeserved rap. Well, that and its directed, linear nature (a result of the story-focus, obviously).

Flipping the Wiimote from NES-style to pointer-controlled first person view? Amazing!

Simple, two button gameplay with only a D-Pad for movement in 3D space? Worked flawlessly!

Metroid in 3D and in third person? Played beautifully.

 

[serplux]

Ignore.

Bolded I'm getting, underlined is maybe (mostly yes)

Nintendo done good. Good enough for me at least.

You didn't underline anything :0 unless I'm blind...I think I'm blind :$

 

[Kard8p3]

Retro's new game will be the first that they've ever made without Kensuke Tanabe as the producer (he's working on Yoshi's Island 3DS).

When was that confirmed?

 

[serplux]

When was that confirmed?

I'm a sleepy man. Ignore that post.

 

[Chet Rippo]

Nobody expects new content. We're expecting the "cut-because-not-enough-time" content from the original release.

They've probably ended up using those ideas in later Zelda games.

 

[Pyrokai]

I'm serious guys: STOP expecting more content in Wind Waker. It's just setting yourself up for MASSIVE disappointment.

 

[Pikma]

You're telling me.. there's a chance?

 

[IceDoesntHelp]

Guys you're all thinking about the wrong Metroid here.
Horror Adventure. That's what we truly need.

A Horror game in the Metroid universe would be splendid, and you guys all know it.

Oh now I get it. I pressed the Italic instead of Underline.

Ahh fuck. lol. I'll edit it in I guess.

You should read/listen to some of the Metriod Creepypasta's.

 

[AniHawk]

I'm serious guys: STOP expecting more content in Wind Waker. It's just setting yourself up for MASSIVE disappointment.

it'll be touch screen stuff to improve inventory and changing direction of the wind, maybe some warp point things, and boss rush mode.

anything outside of that would be wishful thinking.

on the other hand, nintendo is very consistent when it comes to putting new content in remakes.

 

[Krowley]

I'm serious guys: STOP expecting more content in Wind Waker. It's just setting yourself up for MASSIVE disappointment.

If there is no new content in Wind-Waker I would probably have no interest in buying it, at least not anywhere near full price.

It was pretty already, and a new coat of paint is not going to fix the flaws in the game. Twilight Princess and OOT are both better 3D zeldas. Wind-Waker is good, and charming, and all that stuff, but it had serious structural problems, and did lack content.

I would be happy with a couple of additional dungeons, and maybe a range of difficulty settings.

 

[jmizzal]

Some speculations on my part looking at the release schedule

Zelda WW HD could be come late Aug in NA
With Pikmin 3 coming very early Aug and TW101 coming mid Sept in NA, just seemed odd, why the huge gap?

When Europe and Japan getting Pikmin 3 in late July and TW101 in late Aug with nothing for Sept yet.

I'm guessing Europe and Japan will get Zelda WW HD in Sept.

Also with Zelda WW HD being shown at the Summer Showcase in NA helps my speculation

[Dmax3901]

Seriously guys I can't take the wait. It's killing me more than any E3 for years. Everyone always says 'this year will be a big one!' but seriously, this year is a big one fo real.

WHAT CAN I DO TO MAKE TIME FASTER.
