Should Retro Studios be in charge?

@Oskpet - Weren't OoS, OoA and MC made by developers other than Nintendo? Possibly more, though none come to mind.


Metroid Prime and Corruption were awesome games (and Echoes was still good) I'd trust Retro with LoZ.

I like all Zelda games, except for the cd-I games (the only ones who was not made by Nintendo)

Because you've actually played the CD-I games?

I hope other companys keep the **** out of Nintendo, Name one good third party game for the Wii.

Zack and Wiki.

Nintendo have realesed som good gamesover the years,

Name one that was actually good, released on the Wii and doesn't end with Brawl or Galaxy.

but then they don't give us anything on E3 and everyone get's pissed (can't call you fans )

Not having another Zelda is the least thing that should have everyone pissed; the lack of any good game period and Nintendo's ever increasing arrogance towards the real gamers are things you should be pissed about.

I trust Nintendo 100% and think the next Zelda game is going to be the best one yet without Retros help

Like everyone did with Twilight Princess? Hope is the worst thing any gamer can have, as it will only lead to disappointment.

Another one? What about the Godfather: Blackhand Edition? It was actually a better and more innovating Wiimake than...well...pretty much all Wiimakes, including your beloved Twilight Princess!

The problem might actually be that everyone understands what the Wii can do, as it pretty much is a glorified 'Cube. Besides that, I somewhat understand why most developers choose not to develop real games for the Wii:
-The other systems are more interesting to develop for
-Real games won't sell on the Wii, especially without the Nintendo logo on them
-It is economically much more responsible to simply port a last-gen game and tack some waggle controls on them or simplu release a minigame collection

Is it just me or did anyone else love TP. I thought it was a very good game and had a lot of credibility

Metroid Prime 3

Hey, Corruption was good. Great compared to it's predecessors.

Twilight Princess was great.

I would love to see what Retro Studios could do with the franchise.

The Metroid Trilogy was absolutely fantastic, and if they can take a new Zelda to level of MP1, I'm sure we would all love it.

It has been mentioned many times that the series needs a new direction, and perhaps letting Retro make a title will be a good indicator if thats the right step in pleasing the gamers.

Origin:

MP1 was clearly the best, but I found MP3 to be much better than 2.
It had a better story line, a larger variety of enemies (the Ing were all the same...) and various new features.

And Twilight Princess wasn't that bad a game, it just wasn't a good Zelda game.

Metroid Prime 3 was definitely the better of the three games. It's graphics blow 1 out of the water, game play kicks it's butt, and generally just expanded on everything the first one did with kick ass controls.

I think it would be interesting to see what Retro would do with the series. I'd love for them to take it into unexpected directions. It worked with Metroid, and it worked with the GameBoy titles, so why not try it out on the console?

Mario kart, Wario land the shake dimension, De Blob, Okami

I liked it, hope is the reason humans still exist

It's a matter of opinion if a game is good or not

A glorified cube? then whats ps3 to ps2? innovative?

I've got a great idea! Let's ignore the topic and argue about video game opinions!

Cell processor, Blu-Ray, SIXAXIS, hard drive?

Haha, agreed.

*Trying to bring things back on topic* Do you think Aonuma and Mr. M would still have enough say in the game... or do you guys think it's better to limit their influence on the game?

I would say that Retro could help Nintendo since... well... the metroid prime series is awesome

No More Heroes.

I was unaware we were going to choose games out of your preferences

Okay, first off, Twilight Princess was not a terrible game, it was a step in the right direction for the franchise. While it does indeed follow the classic formula, it is the largest Zelda in the series and the first to push Story as far as it did. It is true that we need to move on, but let's not deny TP what it deserves.

As for Retro, yes, I'd love to see a new Zelda from them. I could see them making one of the best in the franchise if they were given the opportunity, so long as they keep Miyamoto in the loop the way they did with Metroid Prime.

By the way Origin, you seriously haven't seen The Conduit, have you? I know for a fact that the GCN could never do the graphics they're doing with this game. It will succeed once released next year, just wait.

Metroid Prime was the OoT of Metroid. The time for Retro to make a Zelda game was 1998, not 2008. I don't think Retro have it in them any more to make a truly great game anyway.

Besides, they can't just totally change Zelda, or people will complain. Even though everyone is complaining now that Zelda hasn't changed enough.
