Maybe Retro will take a shot at it after they get Donkey Kong out of their system, lol
Adventures was ok...but honestly it felt like they were trying too hard to be like Zelda or something. Never played Assault, and Command was ok too...but yeah, repetitiveness.
Well Retro mentioned they had an idea for Metroid involving hunters. But platinum games mentioned they would like a crack at starfox .

Honestly I think Starfox is better suited to a $10 downloadable only release rather than a $60 retail one. Maybe a scrolling 2D shooter like Star Soldier or give fox a jetpack like Sin and Punishment. Or just make a game exactly like 64 with a different story...
Of course what you're describing should be a cheap downloadable. If they did that, it wouldn't be worth getting it over 64. Although, Star Fox 64 is hardly story-driven, and that's the one most people want the sequel to stay true to, with mostly ignoring the other games.
As everyone wants them to go to Star Fox to go to its roots and become just like the original, perhaps a sequel like that would deserve to be a cheap downloadable title. I want Nintendo to reinvent the series, like what Assault did with its ground-battles (regardless of the reception, it still reinvented the formula). Keep what we like about Star Fox, and add more meaning to its definition. Expecting and wanting it to just be Star Fox 64, but with more content and better graphics won't do justice for the series.
Star Fox 64 wasn't the first game in the series though.
We could always use more flight based multiplayer shooters.
Not when Nintendo is developing it.
I'd take the relatively basic online of even just recent 3DS online games (Kid Icarus and Luigi's Mansion specifically) over nothing every day of the week.
Though this does make me wish we'd get a new Crimson Skies or something.
Star Fox Command had a terrible story that was just plain shameful to Nintendo. I want to see a SF: Assault sequel with as I like the mix of ground combat and traditional on rails arwing sequences.
I think a Starfox on Wii U would be perfect. I honestly thought Starfox and F-Zero would show up on the Wii. Obviously, that didn't happen.
Anyways, a Starfox game in the style of Assault would probably be the most fitting.
I like Assault the best. I just think some people never like what Nintendo does with their IPs.
Assault was criticized for being different, and Mario 3D World is being criticized for being the same. WTFuuuuuuuudge...
I can agree with some letdown on Command, but I've enjoyed every other Starfox game.

I would love a new Starfox on Wii U.. Never played the original or the 64 version, but I loved Adventures and Assault! Command was decent also, but not as great as the Gamecube ones.

Agreed, as I stated at the beginning I loved the ideas behind Starfox Assault, and had a lot of fun playing it. The only real problem with it was that it was trying to do more than the GameCube was really capable of being successful at. If you pump out a very similar game now, with simple polished HD Graphics, very similar to what they are doing with Mario and actually render all of the huge play spaces that we were given along with some actually coherent controls it will be an amazing, fun, competitive, and unique gameplay experience that we have never really seen done well.
StarFox 64 was a great flying game for its time, but Assault lays the ground work for a multiplayer 3rd person shooter with a scope unrivalled.
Its dead, just like F-Zero and Metroid.
I think they all been replace by Pikmin.
