@MarioLover92 That would be cool too. I was more thinking like the old Mario RPG/Dragon Quest-Final Fantasy style though, so a party of 4 or 5. With the Princesses being the lead heroines but other characters in supporting roles.

I want to see a 3D DK game that's a hybrid platformer/beat em up. Something like this:

I want to see 4 player Donkey Kong 3D Country. Basically a DK rip off of Mario 3D world

I just wrote up a really long game wishlist. For some reason the post didn't go through. What a bummer.

Here are a few of my ideas for a New Super Mario bro's type game:

1. There should be new bosses. Such as Petey the Piranha on the grassland theme. And the Chagrin Chuck squad on the Desert theme.

2. It would be cool if there was a mode where you pull a lever and it chooses a random boss. If you beat the boss on hard mode you can become him. Each boss has their own special ability such as Chargin Chucks squad ability is to run through enemies without stopping.

3. Once you get to the end of Bowsers Castle you beat Bowser Jr. When you beat Bowser Jr. Bowser launches you into a forest on a cannonball. When you wake up you notice that the forest is on fire and you find the FLUDD pack from Mario Sunshine to put out the fire.

4. There should be new themes such as the ghost house, City, and the Airship.

5. A new power up they should make is the metal power up. It turns enemies into statues and turns blocks into metal.

Hope you all like my ideas for a New Super Mario Bros game.

Most probably have not heard of it/remember it

I have definitely heard of and played both PTO 1 and 2.

There hasn't been any F-Zero game since game cube. I would love to see that game on the switch.
A new pilot wings game along the lines of the ace combat series of games, or maybe even an ace combat greatest hits from the last two generations.

I want a 3D Kirby game made by Platinum and a Star Fox game that's in the style of the old Rogue Squadron or Crimson Skies games.

Personally I would love if they brought Wii Sports back! Imagine the new events or being able to play cross platforms. Not to mention the sick music!

Since this thread is back, I want to add some ideas to this one I posted.

-A Rosalina spinoff that essentially serves as a Galaxy 3.
-An Animal Crossing spinoff that's more of a tycoon game starring Tom Nook.
-A Metroid spinoff where you play as a Space Pirate
-A Yoshi's Story reimagining (maybe something along the lines of what FFVII remake does for FVII or a spiritual successor like ALBW) that has a lot of gameplay mechanics revolving around using storybook gimmicks to transform the levels (say for example, using Yoshi's tongue to pull open pull tabs that cause parts of the level to spring up as if they were part of a pop-up book)
-A Duck Hunt revival that is basically Banjo-Kazooie meets Metroid II/Samus Returns, you platform through the level looking for ducks and your progression through the game is based on how many you take down.
-A Mario Kart subseries that is an open world racer like Diddy Kong Racing or Forza Horizons

If Nintendo ever remakes Super Mario 64 for a modern console this is my idea for them:
Super Mario 64 HD/4K+ (Whether HD or 4K is in the title depends on the system's resolution and '+' indicates that there is new content).

The game will be a from-the-ground-up remake of the Nintendo 64 version of the game NOT the DS version. The only part of the DS version that should be included is the new areas, yet instead of getting keys to unlock additional characters (which there are none besides Luigi which I will discuss later) beating those areas will earn the player a star. Also, all of the rabbits in SM64DS can stay. But NO character-specific stars. I believe it is important for a remake of SM64 to retain its nostalgic feel and a crucial apsect of that is keeping the same controls/moveset and physics as it is perfect as is. Each level should have at least one new star so returning players have something new to look forward to. Having new stars and areas in levels will freshen up the experience and add some surprise to an iconic game. But do not put too many new stars since it would cheapen the experience like in SMO which has waaaay too many moons. Remove the silver stars from SM64DS as I felt they were uninspired and it was lame that each level only had 5 unique stars with the other 3 being red coins, 100 coins, and silver stars every time. Each level having 6 or seven unique stars at least would be sweet.

Now for Luigi: he will have a new subplot with him being mind-controlled by Bowser's dark Koopa magic and being an enemy to Mario. We see graffiti saying 'L was HERE!' written in several places including on the STATUE everyone thought said 'L is real'. Eventually, Mario battles Luigi in a new boss fight where, after beating Luigi, he snaps out of his trance and we can now play as him. Luigi will play the same as Mario with (maybe) a slightly higher jump. It will simply be a cool edition rather than a gameplay-altering experience like in SM64DS.

The new game needs a cool new feature to entice players, and I got two. Co-op mode and Versus mode. In Co-op mode two players (one Mario and the other Luigi) work together to collect stars. When the two players are close together they stay on the same screen, and when they move apart the game goes split screen. In versus Luigi should play EXACTLY the same as Mario to even the playing field.

Finally, a fun, yet unlikely, addition to the game would be new cutscenes. We never SEE Bowser put a curse on the castle and kidnap Peach so it would be cool to show us rather than only hearing about it. And at the end show the curse being lifted in real-time and the toads being really happy.

Nice necro-bump.

Personally, I'd like to see Mach Rider return as an open world Mad Max like.
