I think what people have in their head when they imagine "New Nintendo IP" is a lot different than what it'll actually be. For every Splatoon there's a bunch of Flingsmashes. A new Nintendo IP isn't going to be Uncharted, it's going to be some weird Nintendo-esque thing that would've been better filled by a property that already exists.Can't we just have both?
Please be F-Zero.
Old if you have always been #team Emily.
New if you were a hater.
lol
Come on, Star Tropics!
Not gonna happen but I wouldn't complain if it did
This tweet is six months old, as is this thread discussing it.
About that *old* Retro Studios rumor: it came from a second hand source (game dev from Austin, TX). New IP could mean different Nintendo IP.
Speaking of haters, whatever happened to that one person that always appeared in Emily threads just to mock her?
New 'mature' IP please.
It's a reboot of Sheriff. Open world western.
Not working on a franchise fans want despite selling poorly for another franchise that fewer fans want and sells even worse sounds like a terrible idea.
It's also not like they have experience in racing games.
outside of helping with MK7, I guess

Not sure which one you are talking about.

F-Zero, Mach Rider, Star Tropics, Wave Race, whatever the hell. There's room for tons of originality in what they already have.

It will be interesting to see what Nintendo developer maintains the DKC IP now. Personally, I think Nintendo analyzed the sales data and didn't see the IP with the same longetivity as others.

It's either Star Tropics or a brand new IP.She has seen this thread, and tweeted to clarify a little more:

I fear DK might just go back into spinoff hell like the GBA/GCN era when Rare left the building.
Even with the success of DKCR and DKCR3D?
But Tropical Feeze was the litmus test right? How would the DKC sequels perform? Is the Western market of today supporting side scrolling platform sequels?

So you think Retro has been working on something akin to Flingsmashes?
4 years without a project, and you're sure it won't be something a little more major?
We haven't really seen what they're capable of when it comes to an original title. I mean we've seen a tiny bit (Raven Blade) and heard musings (they were working on a car combat game for Gamecube) but nothing they've ever released has been akin to a cheap downloadable game.
They're a studio that makes big budget well designed retail releases.
But keep to your negativity. If anyone could make the next Uncharted but hasn't yet it would be them.
No DK.
