Platinum Games developing an interesting Switch game

My bets are on Star Fox Zero 2.
As someone who actually really loved Star Fox Zero (my favorite in the series), this would be cool... except for the fact that the Switch doesn't have a GamePad.
Mmmh I guess motion controls wouldn't work in portable mode, although chaging to first person perspective would be assigned to a button, I actually always used the minus button to enter cockpit view in Zero.
I think they could make an awesome Platinum action game with the Star Fox license if they were given full freedom to do so

Seconded. Haven't had one since Bayonetta 2...unless you count Transformers Devestation, which is actually a really good game.
I think the word alludes to a shake-up of an existing IP or a new IP that we're not expecting, I don't think it's hollow at all.
For instance, the talk of Bayo with a new protag, or perhaps an previous IP slightly re-designed. I definitely don't think this will be just a regular sequel without any kind of new focus.

I love that game, but no.
Imagine pulling this off with the joycons

Just imagined it. It's the worst idea ever. I'd gladly take a Switch sequel, but no motion pls.

Hell yeah.
W101 re release?
Idk. Star Fox Zero was something I was really looking for when it came out. If they did a sequel with a better arcade mode (more levels, better branching), I think it would be a very good game.
Beyond that, could the Switch even duplicate the notorious controls? That might be nipped in the bud.
...
But yeah...an action game would quite hit the spot at the moment (not that this would come at the moment

Somebody in the PlayStation conference thread posted about a /v/ rumor
saying that Platinum was working on a Sailor Moon game.
It's definitely not this, but I hope it's this.
LOL
It's definitely not this, but I hope it's this.
A Sailor Moon game?Sounds believeable.
How exactly did Nintendos interference make W101 or Bayonetta 2 worse?
Edit: Or do you mean Nintendos funding, so it will come to other platforms?
Edit: I forgot Star Fox Zero was platinum,

He said "interesting".
Tbh that wouldn't be the first time someone use "interesting" because they know it'll be controversial
Yea Rayman Legends being delayed and going multiplatform even though it was finished on Wii U, sure was "interesting".

Am I missing something here as not sure why everyone is commenting like this....
Why would a game like this use motion control or waggle on Switch?
It would use the grip or pro controller surely? And if you wanted you could play with a joy con in each hand using the standard button layout.
As long as they get a bigger budget for it...sure, I'll take it. Korra 1 was a good game, just ugly and waaay too short. Both things a bigger budget could fix.
EDIT: Could also use more boss fights. A total of 2 boss fights, one of which was on her Polar Bear Dog, was clearly not enough.

I'd be so down for Platinum to give us a Star Fox game with no gimmicks.
Or, of course, a Metroid game.
