Duck Hunt as a revival of the character?

[TORNADO BUS DRIVER]

Wii Play was a disappointing Duck Hunt sequel. They could've added him at least ONCE!

If they did Banjo-Kazooie styled collectathon, it'd be weird. The two don't feel like Banjo-Kazooie rip-offs in the first place, if they were put in a similar location with a similar purpose, you'd have a reskin with so many similarities to the original that it could be possible to sue. Even if the characters are older, you're still putting a creature in with a bird that helps him attack, and they have to go through an expansive world collect-a-thon.

It'd be like Dillon suddenly got a reboot to act like the Genesis Sonic games.

However, as a Wii U/3DS game, I'd certainly see appeal as a E-shop download, but not as a full-fledged title. If they REALLY are interested, and create a game that still has the feeling of Duck Hunt, I'd enjoy it. But there's only so much you can do with the story "A dog and duck work together". Who are the villains? Other ducks?

Personally, a full-fledged game featuring forgotten characters working together (Ice Climbers, R.O.B., Duck Hunt, Mike Jones, Lip, Balloon Fighter) to fight an evil force would be amazing. I might just reboot that old project I had with a very similar idea.

I could see it as an indie platformer

I would rather see a new IP for that. I wouldn't want to see Duck Hunt diminished to just a replacement for Banjo-Kazooie.

: Nope, They will crash and burn just like me.

It'd be a neat "mini-game" for the 3DS and perhaps for phones if Nintendo ever decides to do anything with phones. So, kind of like the Dr. Luigi game or a Captain Toad game. Just a game to mess around, have fun, and kill time (and the smug dog).

I don't see it becoming a platforming, but everything's possible right? It would work as a spin-off, but not a revival since it's Duck Hunt, not the Wacky Adventures of a Dog and Duck.

True, although i honestly wouldn't mind playing that. J

Welcome to Big Duck Hunter Pro!

I would want a Duck Hunt cartoon in the style of Tom and Jerry.

You know, with these DHD recolors in Smash... we could easily have a multiplayer Duck Hunt game... maybe make it like an arcade first person shooter with auto scrolling stages. Players shoot down ducks, cans, wild gunmen, cardboard cutouts, etc.

Sounds like something that they should have included in Nintendo Land.
