Star fox 6
Metroid prime 4
2D metroid (fusion sequel)
3D donkey kong
F-zero GX 2
3D pokemon game (like colosseum and XD)
Golden Sun 4
3D kirby game
Paper mario 5 (like the first two games)
Fire emblem (console game)
Instead, nintendo gives us the same games over and over.
2D mario
3D mario
3D zelda
2D zelda
2D donkey kong
2D kirby
Handheld pokemon (although X/Y is great)
Mario kart (even though I want 8, it's just an update to MK Wii, which I played to death)
Smash bros (same as above)
I guess what I'm asking is, would it kill nintendo to mix it up a bit? And use some of there other IPs?

The next Star Fox isn't high priority. I certainly couldn't care less, unless it's like Adventures, really.
Metroid prime 4 isn't Nintendo's call to make. That belongs entirely to Retro Studios, and they've made it clear that the Prime series is over. They may make a new Metroid, but it will not be Prime.
2D metroid (fusion sequel): All in due time. It may happen, it may not, but I assure you, I--and many others--have not been asking for this. In the meantime, however, you could always enjoy Knytt Underground and Teslagrad, which may not be Metroid, but share heavy influences from it.
3D donkey kong: Also not Nintendo's call to make, but Retro has stated an interest in doing one of these.
F-zero GX 2 isn't high demand. Just because the internet seems interested at first, that doesn't mean that the public are interested. F-Zero is honestly a pretty awful racing game, in terms of accessibility, and while not everything has to be for the general public, don't expect Nintendo to go after niche groups before they sate the desires of a much larger number of people.
3D pokemon game (like colosseum and XD): A good idea. Maybe run that by Game Freak (you know, the people who MAKE THE POKEMON GAMES, REGARDLESS OF NINTENDO'S ORDERS?)
Golden Sun 4: No comment. Never played these. Haven't heard any demand for it, either. Didn't even know there were three before this.
3D kirby game: Also not really Nintendo's call, unless they want to devote an entire team to the project, which I severely doubt they do. The IP is floating and anyone may take it, given permission. There's just not enough demand for it, really.
Paper mario 5 (like the first two games): All in due time. I doubt it'll be like the first two games, though. It changed for a reason, and the experimentation will likely continue, regardless of the public's arguments. (Besides, I'd really prefer something in the vein of Super Paper Mario, rather than Paper Mario 64)
Fire emblem (console game): I'm sure whoever works on the FE games will get right on that, once the hype from FE:A has died down and the love for Marth, Chrom, Ike(?), and Roy(?) boils over from Smash 4. Until then, Nintendo's hands are tied on this one, too.
2D mario: Yes, one game per console since the DS must be very grueling for you. eye roll At least these are still quality titles, even if they are stagnant.
3D mario: The last five of these have been nothing short of amazing. Don't know what you're going on about.
3D zelda: Yes, because five games since the N64 (same as 3D Mario, funny enough) must take such a toll on your wallet.
2D zelda: Mostly for the Japanese audience, and honestly, extremely popular. I may not have been a fan of Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks, but their popularity overseas is indubitable, and besides, Link Between Worlds was great, Four Swords Adventures was fun with friends, and you can't really knock the classics, as it'd be far too little WAY too late.
2D donkey kong: There have been five of these... SINCE THE SNES. Only two, in the last generation. And not a single one of them has even been stagnant, let alone bad. Your complaint, here, is rather pointless.
2D kirby: Because Kirby's every been anything else? Maybe contact Sakurai with your complaints, instead of blaming Nintendo for someone else's decisions, hmm?
Handheld pokemon (although X/Y is great): You just admitted it was great. Why are you complaining.
Mario kart (even though I want 8, it's just an update to MK Wii, which I played to death): MK8 is closer to MK7 than MKWii. Your argument is not just invalid, it's outright incorrect. Besides, I've personally played Wii, 7, AND 8, and this is gonna be a trip.
Smash bros (same as above): And this is a problem... why? There's only ever one per console generation. And it rakes in the money like nobody's business, and everyone has been demanding this for years.
In short: Yes. Yes, it might actually be detrimental to Nintendo's bank account to go with the top list, instead of the bottom list. They're securing the obvious users before going for more niche crowds. They'll get there, eventually, in most cases, but you're gonna have to either be patient, or get millions of people to tell Nintendo, Retro, Sora LTD, and Platinum, as well as any other studios working out there, what they want out of this generation that isn't Mario, Pokemon, Zelda, DK, or Smash.
Pointing out some of the things asked for that are basically guaranteed:
-FE Wii U is practically guaranteed. The only Nintendo systems not to get an FE game are the Gameboy, Gameboy Color, Nintendo 64, and DS. The consoles almost always get at least one, and there was one planned for the N64, but it required the 64DD, which is why it was cancelled. Not getting FE on Wii U? Very unlikely.
-3D Donkey Kong, as I said, is something Retro has stated an interest in doing.
-Star Fox and Metroid are both series that rarely, if ever, sell less than 1 million copies. I really doubt Nintendo would just skip them for this console. However, this one is speculation, because I also doubt Nintendo will do it, themselves. However, Platinum has been talking about a new Star Fox for a while and any of Nintendo's "second party" studios would likely be happy to take the reigns of a Metroid game. 2D OR 3D
-There's been a Paper Mario for every home console since the N64. Why would they skip it for the Wii U?
For the longest time I've been wanting to make a thread titled "Metroid, Star Fox, F-Zero, Insert Rant Here"
Face it: Sci-Fi titles that aren't built purely for online multiplayer ain't selling worth beans these days and Nintendo knows it.
Nintendo has funded a lot of games that they more than likely knew weren't going to do well in the past so saying that some of these franchises won't get new installments due to sales is kind of BS. Metroid games have historically not sold well but they continue to make them.
Four more months until Bayonetta 2.

I don't call 1-3 million units not selling well. It's not Mario or Zelda good, but it's by no means bad.
With Nintendo goiing through their life enhancement faze, their focus has definitly shifted, so it's not hard to asume that the low selling games are going to be pushed aside.
As far as I'm concerned, after their promise of returning to their hardcore fans, it seems that Nintendo are shunning them again.
Thing is, most of the games that Nintendo have pushed aside, they don't have many characters that people are going to relate to in the same way as mario or link.

That's quite a jump in logic, there. Who said Nintendo would be handling the QoL stuff, themselves? And more importantly, who said anything about shunning hardcore fans? Nintendo went with what sells better, first. That's just good business. They'll get to the more niche stuff, when they have the resources for it. If you want to change this, buy more Metroid, Star Fox, F-Zero, so on, so forth, games, when they come out. Don't stop there. Buy games that are like them. Show Nintendo there IS a market for these, instead of shunning them because Samus isn't in it or because there are land missions.
As for the QoL, Nintendo's employees are GAME DEVELOPERS! Nintendo didn't even design the Wii Fit Meter. They just sell it. They had to get an entirely different company to help with that particular project. Why wouldn't they do the same for the rest of the QoL stuff?

if we are being shunned then why are they spilling millions and millions into x, fire emblem crossover, and bayoneta? i shue wouldn't if i was doing the shunning
well ... I was gona respond to pretty much every point on the list, but @UGXwolf pretty much did that and said almost everything I would've said. the only thing left for me to really talk about are metroid and golden sun... and if I say everything I feel like saying about metroid then this threads gona go wrong very quicly, so .... golden sun.
first of all if you want golden sun your barking up the wrong tree, you should be taking this up with Camelot, and (Unless somethings changed) that's pretty much what they want you to do. Camelots president Hiroyuki Takahashi has stated that if enough Nintendo fans want a fourth game then chances are they're gona make it. theres even an article about it here https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2012/06/let_camelot_know_if_... so yea if you want a new golden sun then please help make it known to them.

"ain't selling worth beans these days"
"saying that some of these franchises won't get new installments" <----Nope, not a match.
"ain't selling worth beans these days"
"Metroid games have historically not sold well" "more than likely knew weren't going to do well" <---- That's a better match.
I'm not saying these titles will never see new issues, why would I ever make such a statement? They are fan favorites, I know, I like them too. But I know why these types of titles aren't a PRIORITY. So I expect to see them later rather than sooner. But everyone from fans to "analysts" throw out the "Metroid, Star Fox, F-Zero" as titles Nintendo needs to get on with making so they can save the sinking console ship. It's now to me such an uncreative answer to hear over and over again. And, I can't see these titles having any impact beyond a million copies each at very best on WiiU. Doesn't necessarily cover the cost of making them in HD and being worked on enough to at least be 8/9 out of 10 games to even get that million at best sales.
What I want from Nintendo?
Nintendogs U would be nice. I couldn't help but love Nintendogs + Cats
A new 2D Kid Icarus would be pretty cool. A nice mix between of Myths and Monsters and Uprising.
Some Art Style games tailored for HD and the Gamepad would be my biggest want. There needs to be something unique for a system that's so unique.
Also: Why do you want so many sequels, and then complain about the sequels you like? If we get Metroid Prime 4, I'm sure you're going to say it's just another upgrade.
ITT: Guy criticizes Nintendo for releasing the same IP over and over, makes list of sequels to existing IP that he wants, among which include Metroid (5 games in 8 years) and Fire Emblem (6 games in 9 years).
For the record, Mario is probably the only IP that Nintendo actually overuses.
So Anakin kneels before Monster Mash and pledges his loyalty to the graveyard smash.

Even then, they give Mario full variety. You can't argue that NSMB is anything like Mario Kart is anything like Mario Party is anything like Mario Strikers is anything like Paper Mario/Super Mario RPG. Despite how much he gets used, they use him very well.
What Nintendo needs is Animal Crossing the TV series/ plushie line. Take some of the cash from that cash-mountain and do some fan requests (Metroid, starfox, f-zero) lol
