I'd be up for another DK, but it would be kind of a weird thought that Retro's been working on the series for a good seven years on three different consecutive consoles. Metroid Prime in comparison lasted from 2002-2007 (five years), began on the Gamecube and ended on Wii.
As I said, I'd be fine with DKR3. Wouldn't be excited by it but it is a sort of game I'd want to see on Switch down the road.
Win win.
3D DK would be good, though It would have to be pretty different from Mario Odyssey to make it worth it.Exactly. Bring it on. Hoping for a 3D DK.
I'd also love a 3D Donkey Kong. I remember Tanabe musing about this at one point.3D DK would be amazing.
As much as I love DKCR and TF, I hope Retro is working on something other than a third 2D DKC title. Either a 3D DK game or something else would be fine with me.
No More Heroes 3 will be at Nintendo's E3.

Huehuehue 😈Get. Out. 😡
To be completely honest, I'm kind of indifferent to both Metroid and Donkey Kong. That and since Nintendo seems to be more enthusiastic about making new IP these days, I wanna see what Retro Studios can do if they make something completely new. That's way more exciting to me then Metroid Prime 4: Dread or Donkey Kong Country: Cranky's Conundrum. I wanna see more stuff like Splatoon and Arms
I adore Smash, but I don't need it yet. I'm not particularly interested in a port, and it feels too early for a sequel.I know it's bad but surely I can't be the only one like this...
Whenever a new Smash or Smash DLC is imminent, my reaction to a direct is HUGELY dependent on Smash news. By that I mean..
Bad Direct with Smash news: 90% happy
Amazing Direct with Smash news: 100% happy
Bad Direct without Smash news: 0% happy
Amazing Direct without Smash news: 50% happy
Anyone else like this? Hopefully Nintendo know this..

Not necessarily about E3 specifically, but FWIW:

2D Doneky Kong would probably sell 5 million in Switch. But I think a 2D Metroid may break 3 million. Hope both release.
I think Returns did 6 million in Wii.A 2D Donkey Kong would not sell 5 million. I don't think Returns did that on the Wii and Tropical Freeze barely did a million.

I definitely agree.
Yup, this is me too. Retro Studios deserves to either work on a new IP or do a retro (heh) revival and modernize it.
I think Eternal Darkness could be a good pick. We know Nintendo has been in some capacity conducting product or service research or development on that franchise since 2010.
Yeah, a different retro revival would be neat too, albeit I can't think of anything off of the top of my head of an IP that I'd like to see them revive. I guess they could go for an obscure one that could be reimagined and designed however they want

Pokemon Switch is one of the worst kept secrets, especially since we got confirmation by Eurogamer. The more curious thing to me is what Retro's current project is, and it seems very likely we'll see what it is at this E3.
Platinum and Metroid sounds bad. It wouldn't be a Metroid game at allThing is, Mario and Zelda get entries every console generation on both handheld and home consoles, but Metroid hasn't really gotten anything good since halfway through the Wii's lifespan.
I understand wanting new IP's like Splatoon (Genius) and ARMS (Cool Idea), but I think there's definitely merit in realizing that Metroid is being forgotten and they need to find a way to fill that gap in their portfolio. Outside of the more mature LoZ games and Xenoblade, Nintendo doesn't have much when it comes to more mature titles. Metroid would be able to fill that gap perfectly.
It doesn't have to be Retro, since they're heavily rumored to be working on something new - but I do think Nintendo needs to bring Metroid back in a big way, and soon.
Seriously, just give it to Platinum.

DKC:TF didn't "tank" it sold pretty well with such a small install base. Almost the same ratio to DKCR was to the Wii.A 2D DKC game wouldn't sell 3 million on Switch, honestly. Not after DKC:TF tanked due to everything wrong with Nintendo and the Wii U at the time. While the genre diversity on Switch is INFINITELY better than Wii U, it's still missing a few things.
Are you sure they haven't just been renewing the trademark, a pretty standard practice with IP ownership?Rösti;238272216 said:I think Eternal Darkness could be a good pick. We know Nintendo has been in some capacity conducting product or service research or development on that franchise since 2010.
In the Requests for Extension of Time to File a Statement of Use they have filed in the past there's this:Are you sure they haven't just been renewing the trademark, a pretty standard practice with IP ownership?
That being said, I'd love a new Eternal Darkness.
