Platinum Games is fast becoming the Nintendo gamers go-to development studio for unique high-quality action titles, the like Nintendo seem to be reluctant to deliver themselves. A daring fan has decided to pose the question of a new Metroid to famed producer Hideki Kamiya, who appears to feel a new Metroid game would be beyond him…

Come on Kamiya, I’m sure there’s a couple million of us who would love for you to get your hands on the Metroid, or perhaps even the Starfox license once you’ve finished with The Wonderful 101 and Bayonetta 2.

That settles it. After Platinum Games's contract with Sega is up, they need a contract with Nintendo to become 2nd party. Think about it, it'd be so awesome!

I see many saying Retro let "us" down but the truth is, those people let themselves down by getting hyped up thinking it was going to be Metroid. Retro never said it was going to be Metroid and either title fit in line with what was rumored. IE: it's something people have been wanting us to do for a long time.

 

Donkey Kong probably has a bigger audience, just because of the character's appeal to all ages. I would love to see Metroid, and I think we will down the road in a couple years.

I was once known here as KillerMario, but since I really like Banjo-Kazooie, I changed my display name to show them my respect :)

A few weeks ago they said in an interview that it was a futuristic game that everyone wanted them to make, Judging by the reaction for Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze it is not the game everyone wanted them to make. Also a DC game only just came out, talk about over saturation.

I'd like to see the source and article where retro devs say this, otherwise it's all speculation, hearsay, misinterpreted, twisting of facts from bloggers etc.  Seems silly for them to say that being Donkey Kong doesn't even have a cell phone.

Retro never said they were working on a futuristic game, that was from one of those rumors that people made to overhype E3.

Retro didn't let us down at all. They just chose what they thought was best for their first game. Its not like they said they would never make a metroid.

I know they said it was a game that everyone wanted them to make,but they never said futuristic. I think your mixing reality with dreams. Plus, Donkey Coutrt returns came out 2 1/2 years ago, and by the time the new one comes out, it will have been 3 years, THAT IS NOT OVERSATURATION!! If they have spent three years on it with all their talent, it is going to be an AMAZING game! It is going I be huge! Plus the graphics look amazing! It's no a dissapointment to me, I am really excited about it, I actually would prefer it over a metroid, because metroid isn't something that I enjoy, although it is a great game. Just personal preference.

I love how people on here are trying to tell others how they shouldn't have been let down, but with all the hype surrounding their game. Nobody expected it to be Donkey Kong again and quite frankly, I've not seen a single comment asking for another one either.  Let's let everyone have their own opinion, at first I was let down that it was Donkey Kong. 

 

On top: Nintendo will probably let Platnium do a Starfox, I mean right now they're one of Nintendo's biggest 3rd party developer-wise supporters and Nintendo said they're looking into reviving some classics and also, Wonderful101 is wrapping up now and I think Platnium has 3 development teams because (MG:R, W101 and B2). So hopefully Nintendo will let them do it, I'd love to see it happen.

What I don't understand is how people think that because DKC is a sidescroller, people automatically think it is less of a game! I was not let down. Sidescrollers can be just as good, and sometimes BETTER than 3D games. The game will be Amazing! People who thought it was going to be another Metroid after DKCR sold more than all the primes Combined, were just insane. If you look at my earlier posts here, I suggested DK in everyone, but everyone else told me otherwise to the point I believed them. That's what happened to most here. I hope platinums talent isn't wasted on starfox, although I'm sure if they do It itwill change my opinion of the franchise.

Why do you care? It's somebody elses opinion, its not yours. Get over it. People got themselves disappointed because nobody predicted it to take 3 years for them to make another Donkey Kong game. And you thinking that people are insane for thinking their next game would be Metroid is extremely dumb. People are insane? Accept other peoples opinions, you're not forced to agree, but you surely don't need to argue. Everyone has a mind of their own for a reason. I honestly don't know anyone who thought this game would be Donkey Kong, are all those 100's of people insane as well?

 

Like Shokio said, not many people buy a Nintendo system for Donkey Kong. Donkey Kong is a game that should have come later as a holiday game once the console has a larger amount of units sold so it will have a larger audience. Metroid is a game that will sell systems to hardcore gamers debating whether to buy a Wii U or not.
