There won't be a new F-Zero because mr. Miyamoto doesn't see a sense in the series anymore.

New Star Fox might be a chance but I wouldn't count on it.

It's also a question how it should be - traditional rail-shooter, free-roaming like Rogue Squadron or adventure game like SF Adventures.

In the end, the game likely wouldn't sell terribly well, lest move many WiiUs.

Altho I think Platinum could do a great job re-igniting the franchise for the few fans out there. (well, they might be numerous enough)

Sakurai said he's wanting to give another Nintendo Franchise the Kid Icarus Treatment, wonder who itll be.

 

It could be Takamaru considering its never really explained why he is suddenly in Nintendo Land

Miyamoto is not even in charge.

 

But can you seriously see them make a new F-Zero after the floppage of GX on the Cube?

And as much as it may be sad to say, F-Zero would be just too niche racing game these days.

It's high difficulty and genre (futuristic racer) would be a turn-off for the masses.

Of course I too would like to see a new one, I'm just being realistic here.

 

Anyway, since we're at it - Jet Force Gemini 2 and Blast Corps 2.

Except it was on a system that flopped, the Wii did not, and the Wii U is made next to the Wii, if anything they might try the market, a lot of people talk about F-zero are in NL and brought F Zero and X a lot on the VC. Heck, Nintendo is bringing back Pikmin.

Maybe you are right.

But if Nintendo were enthusiastic towards it, we would probably already see it announced.

It probably just doesn't fit into their current "worldview", i.e. the game would probably be cosidered too difficult for their target audience these days.

Maybe I'm wrong but that's the feeling I have.

Trying to think of a few, I've decided most defunct IPs need to be put out to pasture.  No reboots, no second chances, just go....

 My Sony picks-

1. Jak and Daxter

2. Onimusha

3. Socom

4. Shinobi (but in a way that's not like Ninja Gaiden)

5. Genji (as epic as the first game)

 

My Microsoft picks-

1. Blinx 

2. Jade Empire (this would make my life)

3. Armed and Dangerous

4. Kung Fu Chaos

5. Phantom Dust

6. KOTOR

 

 

 

 My Nintendo Picks-

1. Actraiser (that would be sick)

2. Starfox (do it)

3. Blast Corps

4. Wario

5. Zelda (a real Zelda game)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 There are loads really. I've always wanted a Sphinx and the cursed Mummy sequel; but it seems that will never happen.

This is very true... though I dont think the decision makers over at Capcom have any sweet f_cking clue how to do it right.

I'd say REBOOT Banjo & Kazooie... I see it on that leaked list "Grunty Land"... but something tells me its going to be very Kinect Heavy Minigame BULLSH_T .... hope I'm wrong

I say that Insomniac should work with Activision, and remake the spyro games. Sure Skylander has made a ton of money, but I miss the old PS Spyro games and remaking the first game would be wonderful. Especially multiplat for all gamers to enjoy. Sadly, Insomniac wants nothing to do with the franchise anymore :(

DINO CRISIS!

Doesn't even need a full on reboot though. Just give us Dino Crisis 4 where the game picks up where Dino Crisis 2 left off.
