the fact that whoever took that pic also yeah'd the post really brings it all together

 

[Joe Shlabotnik]

Retro-developed Zelda this year

 

[Beelzebufo]

I'm not sure if I'd want a new Metroid. The prime games got worse and worse with each sequel, vs Tropical Freeze which was largely an improvement over Returns I think.

 

[Heroman]

Retro-developed Zelda this year

It wouldn't surprise me if they are working on Zelda u

 

[Exile20]

Metroid or fucking bust. Seriously fucking tired of the dankey kang shit.

You shut your unholy mouth.

 

[Spinosaurus]

It's fucking Dragon Kong again.

I don't want this to EVER die

 

[Kagoshima_Luke]

 

[ramoisdead]

It's Super Shovel Knight.

 

[Tempy]

Mariocraft

 

[spliced]

I mean there is one obvious way to go for Retro:

Donkey Kong x Metroid

We all get space apes and everyone wins.

 

[RPGamer92]

Metroid x Dig Dug

 

[Servbot24]

finally. They unveil it.

I can almost see a game beneath all those filters! :O

 

[drt]

I will buy a Wii U if they announce Metroid.

I agree. Metroid Prime 4 or Metroid Trilogy HD is the only games that would make my buy a Wii U. I guess they don't want my money.

 

[Malvingt2]

Lmao!!

 

[shotgunbob04]

Metroid Dread is alive and well.

 

[Yado]

I'm already disappointed.

 

[massoluk]

Retro bringing next gen experience to Wii U. Metroid Prime HD Remaster

 

[Dr. Buni]

It'd be great if it was a Murasame Castle reboot. Kind of a Zelda-like third person action adventure game but with its own personality.

 

[Marow]

I hope it's Donkey Kong.

 

[evilromero]

Thank you Retro for making this the longest week ever. Anybody have some Wait-Mate?

 

[MR ARCADE FOREVER]

Dragon Kong... 😅😅

 

[superNESjoe]

I legitimately want DKCR 3, which is why I know it won't happen. Tropical Freeze is so good it's stupid, I want them to take another shot at that because no one else is gonna treat that old bruised franchise with the care and talent it deserves.

 

[Astral Dog]

I just hope its not fucking Donkey Kong.

Spoiler

Liked Tropical Freeze but i want Retro to work on something else, enough 2D platformers from Nintendo,

 

[tanooki27]

I'm confused with meaning behind this GIF? are you running away from hype?

the gif sucks.

 

[Maintenance]

I did not know Diggeh worked for Retro.

 

[Beelzebufo]

We literally just got a shooter from Nintendo. No thanks, save Metroid for next gen.

I actually wouldn't mind a DKCR3 as I loved 2 and it was so fun.

But sadly, Nintendo will always tend to look at the numbers first, and Tropical Freeze was depressing in that regard. It sucks because there is no way you can fault the game for that because it is an amazing fun title. It was the freaking Wii U and the piss poor sales.

Which is why I also hope that Retro's next title isn't on the Wii U. I don't trust the console to deliver good sales numbers anymore and good numbers is what Retro needs now after the bad performance of TF

It's sad

 

[Mr-Joker]

Really hoping that it's Donkey Kong Country or something new, let someone else do Metroid Prime rather than forcing it upon Retro Studio.

 

[Rösti]

Don't forget Eternal Darkness. I'd prefer a new entry in the Metroid series though.

 

[evilromero]

I'm all for DKC6 actually. I think it's time for a civilization of ancient robots to emerge and "roboticize" DK Island. How cool would those locales look?

 

[Entryhazard]

It will be Donkey Kong Returns 3 and you will love it

 

[Peltz]

It'd be great if it was a Murasame Castle reboot. Kind of a Zelda-like third person action adventure game but with its own personality.

That would be dope as fuck.

I think it is either:

1. Metroid or
2. F-Zero

But I hope I'm wrong and it's something totally new.

 

[Milly Osworth]

Diddy Kong 3D platformer.

yeah well you should have saved this post for a different forum

I think Nintendo is smart enough to know that the Wii U buried Tropical Freeze, not the game itself. It is critically adored.

I think anything Retro puts on Wii U will sell poor. People clamor for Prime 4 but if that comes to Wii U I bet its lifetime sales would be less than Donkey Kong.

 

[Gaiaknight]

metroid, it better be metroid.

 

[Diggeh]

I did not know Diggeh worked for Retro.

I'm really hyped for some more DK, but this could literally be anything. Retro never lets us down!

sneaky sneaky haha

The obsession with Retro working on Eternal Darkness its kind of interesting.

ED is a cult classic at best, i love it but its not exactly a game with much demand, less from Retro Studios, that game had totally different strengths and weaknesses. from anything Retro has worked before

Never mentioned Metroid

But it would be the logical choice, a game like Splatoon doesnt deny this overwhelming 2D platforming goodness the Wii U has.

 

[kittens]

I need a new Metroid so bad.

 

[zenosparadox]

Retro-developed Zelda this year

Now that would be most excellent. Therefore, I know never to expect it. Thanks!

 

[Servbot24]

Maybe it's a TF expansion, I'd buy it

 

[Nia]

I won't accept anything other than Metroid. No excuses.

 

[John Harker]

Not going to lie, anything Retro related still gets me excited

 

[TruSpindash]

It's Metroid X DKC to satisfy both groups of fans.

Spoiler

Neither side ends up satisfied

 

[Euron]

Comparing apples and oranges. Hell not even that, more like apples and asparagus.

One is a kid-friendly third person multiplayer-focused team game and the other is an atmospheric first person adventure game with puzzles and occasional horror elements.

 

[shandy706]

Nintendo bought the warriors license and given it to retro?

Haha, was going to say that.

"Now, there ain't but 20,000 police in the whole town. Can you dig it?"

 

[Cow Mengde]

No more Metroid please. No, their Metroid games are great, but the trilogy is perfect as it is. They should move on and do something new.

 

[Caffeine]

im done if its another donkey kong

 

[KingJ2002]

Possible Dig 'Em game incoming?

*prays for Metroid or new IP

Nintendo anounces Dig'em as their new mascot!

Now that's a Megaton
