The upcoming, untitled game from Retro Studios is said to be first-person, futuristic and “something everyone wants them to make”.

That's a stupid way to phrase a rumor.

Just because of BS like that I'm calling fake

Edit: Especially because what I want is Donkey Kong Country Returns 2

Why is this 100-Year-Old-Gamer guy worth being posted all over the Internet? Does he have any (real) leaking past to make him notable?

Well, whatever the reason, there's a good chance that tomorrow's Nintendo Direct can prove if he's telling the truth or BS (I'm voting for the latter).

It could still happen, but all that we've actually had confirmed is "screenshots", (IGN likes to assume things) though knowing Sakurai a trailer is very likely. It's just a question of when we'll get the trailer. Nintendo is normally hard to predict at E3, especially with Smash, but now that they're changing things up even more and doing multiple Directs and no main conference, all we can really do is guess. It could even be tomorrow (though it probably won't be).

Ah ok. IGN sometimes does jump the gun from what I notice. They act like it is a foregone conclusion that Nintendo will show Smash Trailer at E3. However, that doesn't seem like Nintendo's style as you are pointing out.

Well to be clear, I do think we will get a trailer, I just have no idea when exactly during or around E3 it will be, and would caution those who listen to sources like IGN that act like it's confirmed.

There's a rumor going around that Mewtwo might have two new forms.. according to Pokebeach he leaked the new Pokemon names from an inside source before they were officially confirmed.

I certainly hope you're right. A new type or two would be neat at this point in the series.

Anyway some news:


Good news for you PacMan fans out there. Looks like Namco is really pushing to bring the ol' mascot back. He's even got some new abilities. Also, Ectoplasmic Bukkake ftw.

BUKKAKE!!

Didn't Sakurai already say he was working on a trailer back in January, and that he hopes to out-do the Brawl reveal trailer???

Between this and the Mario Kart Arcade I'm 98% confident that Pac-man will be SSB4 as a playable character. Namco is really going to be VVhoring him out.

Not that I'm giving credit to this rumor, but Retro had already described their project as "something everyone wants us to do" back in May 2011.

That's probably why 100 Year Old Gamer structured the sentence that way. Trying to build credibility.

Right... I misread that last sentence. Oh well. They're going to be talking about something tomorrow. Everyone be excited!... maybe.

Yeah, my guess is just restating details about Pikmin 3, W101, Game & Wario, and maybe a few more minor game reveals, stuff in the same vein as Wii U Party or whatever (stuff that doesn't usually get announced months in advance because it doesn't cause much hype). Maybe a few eShop related things, some more details about other already announced games, and if we're lucky maybe a single fairly hype-worthy game announcement.

And 3DS stuff like Animal Crossing, M&L, and other stuff releasing this summer. Really just stuff to announce now so that future Directs can hopefully be all about fall and beyond.

Aw man, it's probably gonna be them re-imagining another Nintendo IP. I wanna see them flex their creative muscles and get to work on something original for once.

A truly great re-imagining always requires a huge deal of creativity, which just isn't there in many cases we've seen over the years. Why do you think so many reboots and re-imaginings end up being terribad?

Retro's got this maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan. ♪

I suppose. Still I'd like to not have them just be the studio you go to for re-imaginings of existing IPs. Whatever it is, though, it will probably turn out good.

Am i the only one who wants the game to be metroid? It wouldnt be so bad if they were other devs that could do the job just as good but clearly no one can...

Retro working on either Starfox or F-Zero would please me greatly.

Yeah, I'd also like to see what Retro would make if given an opportunity to make an original game.

Hmmmm yh F-Zero would be cool even though i dont play that franchise just that Cpt.Falcon is a cool & funny char he shouldnt suffer like this...

But for me personally the only thing i would actually buy if there making is a 3D DK game or Metroid thats why.

I wouldnt buy a Starfox or F-Zero game.

I hope it's a Star fox game.
My dream Starfox game would have a similar level design as Kid Icarus: Uprising: An air on-rails section and a ground free-roam section.

Air sections would function as they have in the past, and the ground section would play like Ratchet & Clank.
