When I first bought the Wii U, I was pretty stoke for Nintendo land. Up to 6 players and 12 mini games, sounds like an AWESOME game right?! The cold hard truth is, Nintendo Land felt more like a Tech Demo than a real game to me. The games are fun but it is just too shallow. Plus the games are pretty much unplayable unless you have 4 people in your room. I've had the games on the day I got my Wii U, and I only played it for a handful of times.
However I do think Nintendo Land's formula has a lot of potential. Imagine this,
1. Make the game HUGE. With much more games (duh) and a much wider area.
2. Make Nintendo Land online with Lobby system. Each lobby can accommodate up to 100 people, and people can actually INTERACT with each other via text message and able to ADD each other as friends. Meet up, walk around, go play mini-games together or chill out in favorite spots
3. Make DLC with add on games and features. More games is always awsome right?
4. Make some competitive multiplayer online minigames. Imagine 4v4 in Metroid Blast?
5.Make a better achievement system. That coin dropping and ornament collecting is god awful. What's good about an achievement when you can't show it off?
What do you guys think? Will Nintendo ever make an update to Nintendo Land?

If it's as much of an improvement as Wii Sports to Wii Sports Resort is, that would be the greatest minigame collection game that ever lived. I'd love to see them try it again
Though tbh, I think next time they would combine this with Wii Sports instead.
honestly I never played Nintendo Land as much as I wanted to.

I know what you mean. I love the game but it just never got me wanting to sit down and play it. It is just not as rewarding as other titles. Implementing Nintendo Land and Wii Sports is kinda weird tho tbh. One is a "sports" game and one is a game parodied from Nintendo IPs.

So long as the games can stand on their own for a while, or at least occupy a small space on the HUB world, so you know they're intended to be fun for only a short time or to a niche audience, I'd be happy with this.
I'd much rather see them turn Nintendo Land's games into cheap eshop games ,and maybe even expand upon them in that format.

I played this game a lot with friends and family so yeah I would love to have a worthy sequel. And at the same time, some of these games would be brilliant as a stand alone title, but then way bigger and more fleshed out. So something in me is hoping this would actually happen, rather than a sequel.

Sure, why not? I enjoy it and my daughter and I have started playing it again recently and it's still a fun game. The co-op Zelda, Pikmin and Metroid games are loads of fun. I think the only one I can't get to grips with is Octopus Dance because it uses the sticks. Mario chase rarely gets played because Wii Party U, Game and Wario and Spin the Bottle get more attention as party games; I think more multiplayer games would have been good.
I'd imagine Nintendo feels pretty burned on Nintendo Land seeing as it was the Wii U's big launch hope and it didn't do the business. So I won't hold my breath for a sequel in the near future. But then again the almighty New Super Mario Bros. didn't really do the business either and Nintendo's reaction seemed to be "Oh God, Mario isn't working! What are we going to do? I know... Mario!" But Nintendo Land was always going to be too complicated (with its asymetrical gameplay) and too drenched in Nintendo history to connect with the casual/non-gamers like Wii Sports did.
Personally I probably wouldn't be that excited about a sequel (for one thing I think I've played enough minigame collections in the last 10 years to last a lifetime). I thought Nintendo Land was OK. The 3 Pac-Man Vs-esque minigames are fantastic (dual-screen gaming's one truly great idea imo). The single-player games are OK, but with the exception of the great Yoshi Fruit Cart, they kind of feel like standard touch/tilt based iPhones games (albeit with a somewhat contrived dual-screen element) which is why I imagine people didn't get too excited for them. The other 3 mnigames are alright. Touch-screen Pikmin works surprisingly well, but I didn't really see the point of the Zelda and Metroid ones, other than to answer the question; What would Zelda and Metroid play like with weird controls?
Though I will say that I think the Nintendo Land Plaza is one of the most beautiful "worlds" that Nintendo has ever created.
nintendoland was meant as a techdemo for second screen gaming and asymetric gameplay. just like wiisports was a techdemo for motioncontrolls.
the idea behind nintendoland is awesome. it could easily become a really cool series if the next game has online features and a fe rpg-elements like leveling up.
Strangely, I do. I bought Nintendo Land with my console guessing I would be bored within a week. It's been months now, and I still play it from time to time. Metroid Blast is amazing! I enjoyed Pikmin Adventure far more than I like the actual Pikmin games (I'm not cut-out for micromanagement, a game like Pikmin puts me in the verge of a nervous breakdown).
I'd prefer them to take the big games of the package: Metroid Blast, Zelda Battle Quest and Pikmin Adventure, and put up sequel games to those Nintendo Land attractions on the Wii U eShop.
