Rumor: Is Retro Studio teasing their presence at E3?

Retro has a history of posting innocuous playful tweets on that account. They're probably just pointing to the event for shits, whether they end up showing anything is unrelated

I know it's Twitter but hhnnnnnnnnnnngggggg.

For all that is holy let it be Metroid. But knowing my luck its going to be another Donkey Kong.
 
nintendo promotes nintendo marketing show using a nintendo marketing social media account

but clearly it means that they're finally announcing a 3d intepretation of mole mania
 
I remember last year when someone "leaked" that Retro was working on a StarTropics reboot and people genuinely believed that it could be real. Flippin' StarTropics. Actually was that two years ago? Whenever Tropical Freeze was announced anyway.

Enjoy your Retro made level in Star Fox and like it!

But seriously, a new Metroid would be cool. Wouldn't say no to more Dankey Kang.
 
I just hope if it's a 3D game that the level design remains focused instead of the open world crap we see in Zelda U.
 
While I still hope their game is not a new Metroid (unlike many gaffers, I would prefer something new instead), at this point I will take it over nothing. Just announce something already pleaaaase.
 
If it's DKCR3 then it makes sense they could be ready by now. If it's Metroid or a new IP, I doubt hey'd have it prepared this quickly.

/baseless speculation

But they might have time to do Metroid if it's a 2.5 D Metroid using the DKCR:TF engine. To dream the impossible dream... *sigh*
 
No more DK, it must be a new Metroid, FPS or sidescroller.
"Hope it is not a third DK, it must be a FOURTH Metroid Prime instead"

I will take DKCR3 with kremlings and K. Rool back over a fourth Metroid Prime (and I love the Prime series), but since that isn't happening... New IP or old IP reboot please.
 
Whatever it is, it probably is the last Wii U title we'll get from Retro so I'm hoping it's Metroid just for that reason alone. I don't think I can live in a world where we never got a Metroid that took advantage of the gamepad for scanning/visor/map/everything.
 
Anyone care to dredge up that awesome looking (alleged) Retro studios concept art and see if there are any spades/shovels in there somewhere?!
