Absolutely! It is a must.
Game-Biz said:Apparently, "All the major DKR characters who arent Kongs or Kremlings still belong to Rare."
That means no Wizpig
(((
But if Nintendo would hire David Wise for anything I'd be there day effin' one, baby.
Sad that there will be no Timber
BUT
Retro can design some fairly generic animal characters to fill out the cast, just like Rare did.

You don't know how much I wish for Nintendo to buy those characters, AT LEAST Taj! ;_;
But even if they just use DK staples, basically like Diddy Kong Pilot and Donkey Kong Racing were going to (sans Taj (HE was in the trailer god fucking dammit, he IS a DK character! :'( )).
And of course Krunch would return, and get Tricky from SFA, don't care if he was a SF character, he can replace the original (he WAS going to be the original, but Rare changed their minds), much better than being a never to be used again SF character), google eye him up to blend in.
And maybe make some new critters. Though I wasn't keen on the pig from DKCR, didn't really scream as a "DKR-like" character.

But I'd kill for a port at least in 60 frames and 1080p, can't go wrong with that.Hell, 60 frames would be a given, they did that for Ice Age 2 (30 on GC, 60 on Wii).

Lets hope, the Zelda franchise needs major help. Also, New Metroid (only way to fix the wreckage that was Fusion, Other M, and Corruption) and might as well throw in New Kid Icarus (cause I have a feeling KI 3DS is going to bomb, it is way too far removed from its original gameplay - though it wasn't majorly popular anyway.)apana said:
Oh, and there needs to be a New Castlevania, New lots of things.

Retro should work on a Battletoads sequel with music from David Wise.

Keep in mind the company may exist to update retro Nintendo franchises. I think many have had a problem with this aspect of the company's existence.BertramCooper said:
I don't really need anything original. I just want them to make something because in the video game world things don't need to be original IPs to be awesome. They just need to be fun.

A kid icarus game wouldn't surprise me because that is the game that has most been associated with Retro rumors in the past.
Second on the list would probably be an online oriented FPS to compete with Halo. People have been begging for that from Retro for years.
Another Metroid would be third because I don't think there has exactly been an outcry for a new prime game outside of the Metroid fanbase. Personally, I would love a new Prime game if it was more like the first one and less like the third.
I'm not sure how credible this site it (it may be great, but I don't know the site very well) but it does seem odd to me that Retro employees would so openly comment on the next system since Nintendo hasn't even confirmed its existence yet AFAIK.
Also, I would be shocked if Nintendo handed a console Zelda game off to anybody.

Impossible, Rare/MS owns Battletoads.
Hell if it were possible, I'd kill for EAD Tokyo to make a Banjo game! Same amount of possibility; none.

Anyone who was a fan to begin with will care... I care. I have no interest in KI 3DS because it is so far removed. Pit doesn't even have a Bow... He has a space blaster, CLAWS, and I don't even know what else. No platforming and cheese voice acting.

There are some interesting things about the gameplay but too on-rails, literally at times.
Why are we adopting the Project Café name?, just because some random french site that guessed (anyone could have guessed that shit tbh) PSP2 specs say so?.
Also $50 says nothing will be shown or even talked about WiiHD this E3, absolutely nothing.
Ps: Nothing will happen next week either.

I thought the longest rumors about Kid Icarus were associated with Factor 5? The Retro stuff seemed more like wishful thinking just based on the fact that they'd already done Metroid, and Metroid and Icarus were "sister games" back in the day.M74 said:
I'd be tempted to lean towards a Kid Icarus revival if Project Sora wasn't already making a new game in that series, and I don't think that Nintendo would necessarily want to bank on the success of that franchise by running two games for it simultaneously. If Uprising sells decently well, I could certainly see it perhaps being Retro's NEXT project, after whatever it is they're doing now.

Probably too difficult for them anyway. That game requires major skills.

IMO, no one should be making Smash 4 except for HAL only. Brawl was a mindless mix-up of devs and the game severely suffered because of it; most of the personality from the first two were lost as a result, I mean Subspace Emissary, really? I still would've preferred Iwata's original idea pre-Sakurai; basically Melee 1.5 with Online.
God bless Kirby Wii, finally a REAL HAL console game, first since Air Ride. :/

Before last week, I would have been with you.
But the Wii is getting multiple price drops and Nintendo is being extremely tight lipped about this whole thing.
Add that with the other signs, and it's pretty much given they'll announce it soon.

I've thought about that before, but didn't tradewest (the battletoads publisher) dissolve? If so, I think you're right that it's Rare's property.Hero of Legend said:Impossible, Rare/MS owns Battletoads.

Hell, they can outsource the series to another dev and have them do an updated XBLA edition. I would so buy that.

Its is extremely boring to play, slow, easy, no action/adventure, story-driven, too many "puzzles".
Today's "Zelda" games have very little in common with the two that started the series besides the paint-job. The feeling of adventure isn't there. Just start-up the opening screens to the first two Zeldas and turn up the volume and tell me they don't make you feel 'adventure'. Even 3 is solid, after that blah... OOT was so so, but missing a bunch which is why MM didn't sell well.
Those games didn't have any puzzles yet puzzles have now become over-bearing to the point that there are literally puzzles in the game - like the ones you rearrange pieces and stuff. LAME!
Zelda is about swash-buckling through dangerous territory and Dungeons/Palaces not puzzle-solving. Aonuma has filled that game with fluff: trains, boats, skyward Swords and all sorts of garbage. Give me a break.

Just so people know, the article also mentions Head mounted stereoscopic displays and tracking systems... Could be important hints about the overall functionality of the console.

I wonder what Osaka Tanaka and SeriousGamer007 has to say about all this.
