#276790 When it comes to Donkey kong...

Posted by MorbidGod on 11 March 2014 - 12:16 PM

I'll be more than happy if Retro branches off and makes their own IP in the near future.  They've proven they release high-quality games with great precision and attention to detail.  I'd love to see them do something completely new with their next game, but I'd be lying if I didn't say I want to see them release a 3D Donkey Kong game in 2-3 years.


I know, they are very talented. The only thing that makes me think Nintendo doesn't want them for new IP's is simple: Their Name. Retro Studios. Retro, as in old games. I think that's why Nintendo made them.

But, I stand by what I want from them. A new IP. I'd love to see a nee shooter, similar to Metroid In that it has a huge open world but filled with more fighting. But, a new Metroid would also be good.


#262302 Gamespot DKTF Preview.... Nintendo take notice!

Read the actual article, its making you look really stupid.

 

Honestly, I'm sorta with Thrash.

 

What this is sounding like to me is another person whining that Retro isn't making Metroid or another dudebro shooter, and taking it out on DKC:TF.

 

Not to mention this wonderful quote coming from the same person who lists NBA 2K14 as one of his favorite games of 2013: "I want the innovators to take charge, the people who won't play by the rules, who would rather die with ambition than thrive playing it safe."

 

As well as this brilliant quote: "In my hour with Tropical Freeze, I just don't see anything that makes this game special. Sometimes fun just isn't enough for me." Really? Having fun with a game isn't the most important part in wanting to buy it? It has to innovate in a thousand different ways too? I guess all sequels are in trouble then.

 

I've pretty much learned to disregard GameSpot when it comes to Nintendo reviews/articles/etc because usually, they're crap. Who can forget when they gave Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon (A rather easy game...only died once or twice) a 6.5 because it was "too challenging," or when they gave Professor Layton and the Azran Legacy a 7 because "it refuses to step outside of its comfort zone," then turns around and slaps a 8/10 on Call of Duty and Battlefield 4 for sticking to its yearly churned-out formula with loads of bugs and godawful campaigns?

 

gaemz juranlism at itz fienst

 

And as for them giving Link Between Worlds their "favorite game of 2013"...well, a broken clock is right twice a day.

Meanwhile, Donkey Kong Country Returns still sold better than Metroid, Xenoblade, Zelda or whatever other hardcore Wii U savior you people are thinking of.
