Can Retro Studios Work on a Zelda Game? Miyamoto Comments #1 at Nintendo Cubed3

What I want Nintendo to do is abandon crap projects like Nintendo Land and Wii Do Various Things and start making new IPs and good games like Metroid and Zelda themselves (provided they don't just re-hash the same game over and over like with N!SMB). I would, however, rather see a Retro Zelda than see a million Zelda clones and remakes and spinoffs like what they're doing with Mario.

Giving Zelda to a team like Retro could do wonders for the series. Capcom gave what I believe are the best 2D Zeldas. Maybe one day Retro could do a 3D Zelda. At the very least a joint project.

Sounds like a good choice for a 3DS title.
I'd probably prefer Nintendo to make the Wii U title though, just because they've always done a good job on the home console versions and there's no need for a major change.

I just completed pokemon yellow! 151 pokemon seen and caught.
Surely that's worth a star?

Yep, give Zelda to Retro Studios.

Do you think Nintendo should hand over, or collaborate closely with a studio like Retro to produce a new Legend of Zelda game, akin to Capcom's efforts with Minish Cap?

No.

It baffles me how this could be a good idea. The 3D Zeldas are some of the most complex games ever made. There is so many facetts too them them and any one of them could wreck it.
Retro hasnt even done a third person game!

Let them work on their own IP, or at least something new and not such a risk.

Yes, yes and yes! After a studio has made three fantastic Metroid games and a brilliant 2D Donkey Kong game I think stripes have been earned. I think Zelda really needs a Western shot in the arm.

Add me on anything. I'm always looking for new friends/opponents/town visitors/chances to appear more popular than I actually am.

They did an excellent job with Donkey Kong. I have faith that they can do the same with Zelda. I wonder what they're currently working on? hmmm... Smilie

If you were going to have that happen in the US at Retro, that would be kind of difficult for them to be able to coordinate. Certainly they're too busy for that sort of thing right now. It would probably require me to be involved to a great extent as well, so I would have to get over quite a bit too. I'd probably have to live in Texas.

It sounds perfect. Miyamoto gets experience from living in a very different environment, which will help him develop new ideas. The hard work and skill of the people at Retro Studios shows in every game they have made so far. Different cultures, different perspectives, a new Zelda game. It will also help Miyamoto to overcome his English speech impediment.
Make it so.

You are not alone. I am here with you. Though we're far apart...you're always in my heart. Love u!

When you have a wife and kids, you can't move abroad so easily though...
