What "series" Nintenzone wants to be revived (Victory!!!)

[dream1ng]

Two series that never came to NA... and I've never played... I guess I'll go with Band Brothers simply due to the fact that Nintendo is less prevalent in the rhythm genre than the RPG-ish one.

Also Murasame because that's a series I'd legitimately like to see get revived and updated, while Duck Hunt is still, Duck Hunt.

 

[Yomi's Biggest Fan]

Voted for Jam with the Band because the music is awesome and Barbara is a bae.

The second answer is too obvious that I'm not going to #SlashTheVote.

 

[BluePikmin11]

I personally find more charm and potential for a FtFtBT reboot than Daigassi Band Brothers.

I've played both of those games intimately, and I just find FtFtBT to have more potential.

It's a case of looking into the game for yourself to understand what I mean by FtFtBT having more charm.

 

[Sir Gengar de Èctoplasma]

Voted for Band Brothers and Murasame Castle.

 

[finalark]

Still waiting on Golden Sun 4.

Maybe on console this time. That'd be cool.

 

[A Distant Demon]

Wow. Surprised Daigasso beat its Froggy foe.

Meanwhile, Duck Hunt got absolutely sweeped.

And since i'm bad at planning, no loser's bracket this time.


Just Sin and Punishment VS Wario Land
http://www.strawpoll.me/11206875

 

[Sari]

Definitely Wario Land .

WarioWare has taken over the Wario series, which is a shame since the Wario Land games are so much fun and probably the best representation of the character. Great platforming and plenty of hidden treasures to find in each game. Make another game in the style of Wario Land 4 and I'm sold.

Sin and Punishment is cool but Wario Land deserves to be reboot more imo.

 

[finalark]

Wario Land gets my vote. I like Wario Ware, but I hate it when a spin-off completes takes over a franchise.

Sin and Punishment was neat, but it's not something I feel strongly about.

 

[Ura]

The GBA Wario Land game I played which I believe was the 4th one was pretty fun so it would be cool to see another installment in that series.

Sin and Punishment I know next to nothing about other than the protagonist from the game who's an AT in Smash Bros.

 

[Sir Gengar de Èctoplasma]

Wario Land. I love this series, and it's a shame it got shafted in Smash 4.

 

[Yomi's Biggest Fan]

I'm going to be that hipster that vote for Sin & Punishment just because.

 

[dream1ng]

Well, considering this is what we want to be revived, I'm going to go with S&P. I've always really dug that series, and I'd be happy with as much as Nintendo and Treasure give us.

As a company obv Wario Land makes more sense since that game would probably do at least decently, and I'm sure it would be fun too, I'd just prefer the other option. Not to mention I think we're fine for 2d/2.5d platformers for the moment.

 

[Argos]

Kinda a tough one. I think my heart days Wario Land but my head says Sin & Punishment, oddly enough. I've definitely loved Wario Land more over the years (4 is a legit masterpiece) but Nintendo's not exactly hurting for 2D platforms at the moment. Plus, any opportunity to see Treasure get to make another game sounds pretty great to me.

 

[A Distant Demon]

Saki couldn't take the punishment from Wario, who has advanced to the next round.

We finally start round 2 of winners today! Things will probably start to heat up now.

But I want BOTH Punch-Out!! and Ice Climber to be revived.

But I have to go with Punch-Out!! (Even though it's not a revival per say) since it's my favorite.

 

[Sari]

Hard to choose, but I'd have to go with Punch Out. Little Mac's inclusion in Sm4sh has sort of made the series well known again, which is why I think a new entry would do ok. I'd love to see a new game in the style of Super Punch Out.

 

[Argos]

The original Ice Climbers isn't...great, to say the least despite how lovable they are in Smash. Punch-Out is pretty perfect as it is which is both a strike for and against it. On the one hand why would we want to revive something just to have it be the same thing prettied up again? On the other hand, whatever we get is sure to be pretty great.

 

[Ura]

I assume this IC game would be a totally different new game than the NES one like what Kid Icarus Uprising was to NES KI which is why i'm voting for the IC's.

 

[Sir Gengar de Èctoplasma]

Voted for Punch-out and Sin and Punishment.

 

[dream1ng]

Punch-Out is quite fun, but the Wii already gave it a very quality revival. I'd be fine if we got another one of those, but there's a lot more untapped potential for bringing the ICs into the current age of gaming. Plus if they're going to keep showing up in Smash (which minus this lapse I imagine they will be), might as well give em another game, the recognition is there.

Also voting S&P for reasons already stated.

 

[Aetheri]

Personally would like to a modernized Ice Climber game....why they don't have one yet is beyond me since they've gained major popularity since Melee...

Literally just need to make a 2.5D up-down sidescrolling platformer like what we see with the Icicle Mountain stage, I'm sure that'd make a fun game...

 

[Yomi's Biggest Fan]

Punch Out >>>>>>>> Ice Climber

There's so much potential for a whole new game, new boxers and a new championship. I want Pizza Pasta and Mad Clown (Thanks to you @Thatkidwiththeafro) to return damn it!

Also Sin & Punishment for the reasons I've already stated.

 

[A Distant Demon]

I definitely didn't forget about this thread. absolutely not. nope. Didn't happen

*ahem*
Punch Out KO's Ice Climber, with Sin and punishment DESTROYING the little frog boy


Next up is Mechs VS. Mech units

Custom Robo takes on Advance wars

http://www.strawpoll.me/11221203

 

[Ura]

Advance Wars (Did you expect me to say anything other than that? lol).

I suppose an argument can be made for both series though I feel that AW can really capitalize off the newfound success FE has had with a proper revival on the NX early on in it's lifecycle like what Awakening was to the 3DS. Wars is a wider known series as well even with being out of the limelight for so long.

 

[finalark]

Custom Robo.

I never really got the appeal of Advance Wars.

 

[A Distant Demon]

Let it be known that we had an accidental misclick.

Reduce Advance Wars's score by one, and raise Custom Robo's by one.

Putting the current score as of typing this message:
Advance Wars:2
Custom Robo: 3

 

[Aetheri]

Punch Out KO's Ice Climber

I find this to be a shame actually since Punch Out at least had a recent title...other than Smash Ice Climber is about as dead as dead can be, and the Ice Climbers weren't even in the latest Smash game either...
And I think it would be a fun game at the very least...

But if people prefer Punch Out then that's fine I guess...

as for the poll...honestly don't care for either one but I voted Advance Wars...

 

[dream1ng]

I'd like to see both series revived but I'd like to see Custom Robo revived more.

 

[A Distant Demon]

Every time I checked the poll it was tied. . .all day. I was worried I would ave to extend this day but when I checked one last time before making this post, Advance Wars slipped ahead.

Only winning by one, for one of the series I expected to dominate against one O assumed would fail miserably. Strange.


Anyway, today two games duke it out that I can't make a joke for!

F-zero VS Golden Sun

In loser's Bracket, Ice Climber will take on Sin and Punishment.
http://www.strawpoll.me/11227186


and uhhh try not to misclick this time guys

 

[AwesomeAussie27]

Golden Sun and Sin & Punishment.

Bam!

 

[Aetheri]

Yep...

 

[dream1ng]

Golden Sun and Sin & Punishment.

Bam!

Pretty much~

Though I'd be happy with any of the four.

 

[Opossum]

Golden Sun and Ice Climber for me!

 

[Ura]

This is tough because I love both series and want them both revived but I give the edge to Golden Sun.

 

[N3ON]

Golden Sun. Again.

So are you just like, spontaneously summoned whenever Golden Sun is mentioned?

When Golden Sun is consecutively mentioned at least three times I am woken from my slumber like the very particular very nerdy ghost I am.

kbye!

 

[Sir Gengar de Èctoplasma]

F-Zero and Ice Climber.

 

[A Distant Demon]

F-zero loses to Golden Sun. How peculiar. I suppose smashboards has always leaned pretty heavily towards GS but oh well.

Ice Climber also takes out S&P

Next up, Daigasso! band brothers takes on Wario Land in winners, with Custom Robo facing off against Mysterious Murasame Castle in losers.

Absolute brutality. . .

Wario land demolishes Daigasso and Mysterious Murasame Castle slices Custom Robo.

There were no survivors

We're getting pretty close to grand finals. How exciting!


First up, Punch-Out!! Takes on Advance Wars in Winners. Will certainly be a tough fight, as both have scored very very highly.

http://www.strawpoll.me/11239345


EDIT ignore the fact one says day 12 and one says 13.

I'm just hasty!

 

[dream1ng]

I'd rather see Advance Wars get revived. They're both great series, but if done properly AW may be able to rise like FE. There's a lot of potential there. Meanwhile Punch-Out pretty much hit its stride with the Wii title, the most I could see being added are new boxers and maybe a mode or two.

And also F-Zero.
