Retro Studios Project and Factor 5 project?

Well Retro Studios and Factor 5 are both secretly hiding what they are going to make next. Factor 5 is rumoured to make a new Kid Icarus, New Star Wars game, new indiana jones or a new star fox game. Retro isn't really rumoured on making a bunch of games except Star Fox and maybe a new franchise. Now Retro is one of the most respected developers last gen and this gen and Factor 5 made some incredible games. I really hope they announce their games soon. I hope one of them are making a new star fox. What are your thoughts?

probably 2 new franchises.

*Prays for more IPs*

Nothing is known about the Retro Studios Project, so we can only guess. Rumours have previously said it was going to be the new Zelda, but that obviously isn't true. A more likely rumour is that they're working on an all-new FPS game for the Wii, which would be awesome as they made some of the best first person games ever made with the Metroid Prime trilogy. A new Star Fox would be awesome, though, as it would not only mean the revival of one of my favourite series, but probably an entirely new concept, which would be great as I do not want a Lylat Wars remake with Wii controls.

I am definitely excited for Retro's next project. After the Metroid Prime trilogy, I will probably buy anything they put out. Even if it was a my little pony game!

[QUOTE="garrett_duffman"][QUOTE="BrunoBRS"] i've been wondering the same thing... how the hell are they hiding a project if they don't even exist anymore?BrunoBRS

[QUOTE="BrunoBRS"][QUOTE="nini200"] Kinda like Dark Void Zero "was" a closed project and wouldn't ever see the light of day? I would have to see what they were working on to know if I'd want it released or not.nini200

Playing Star Fox 64 in the Cockpit is HARD! I'm hoping that Retro Studios is making a New game.

I'm also excited to see what Retro's project is.... but I feel bad for them at the same time. They've done wonders for Metroid, and that has put a lot of weight on their shoulders imo. If they screw up whatever they're working on... people will judge them for it.

Taking in what we know about Retro thus far (and their history into account), they originally tried to go with different genres in the past. I've spoken with a person that worked for Retro (right before Prime was released) and have read numerous articles about they originally were working on;

1. An action adventure game
2. Vehicle game with weapons (Think Twisted Metal)
3. A sports title (I believe it was a football game)

Taking that into consideration and what Miyamoto said about their vehicle game... I would assume they are probably going to dip into the adventure genre. I would really doubt they'd be working in the First Person perspective again. If I worked there, I'd like to stay away from it for a bit. I honestly don't know if Nintendo would give them another IP to work with, or just make them start fresh.

But who knows.... I'm probably way off.
