Namco Bandai has sure been cancelling a few of its titles on the Wii U.. Well I sure hope they announce a future partnered collaboration; like DigimonXPokemon! My goodness how many times have I wished for this.
Can you imagine if there came a point that we would have so many powerups that you can combine & mix em up? Like imagine if you needed the two in order to overcome more obstacles, like if you needed the cat suit to climb over something but then quickly needed to glide with the tanooki suit
They don't really seem to realize the already-there fanservice for a pokemon RPG/open-world game. I know they said they wanted to emphasis how the 3DS is better suited for catching pokemon, etc. but that doesn't mean they can't make a game where Pikachu is the main character, since they remain more reminiscent than the trainers, and so Pikachu would go and save a group of pokemon, all because Team Rocket (or Team Flare?) kidnapped not only a ton of pokemon but also all their trainers, so Pikachu would go to several regions (Hoen, Johto, etc.) seeing several pokemon & then fighting tamed beast Pokemons (Tyranitar, Gyrados, etc.) in order to save these poor pokemon & their trainers. This was just a quick thought I came up with, that took little effort, I was seriously hoping that since they've been working on it for awhile it would be a form of such a long-asked for game :,/
I was seriously hoping this to be Gamefreak's first RPG open-world based off of the whole pokemon, all ala Super Mario Galaxy, finally putting much more emphasis on the Yellow pokemon mascot while still strengthening & giving the Wii U more thought. I guess not :'''(
@Mk_II they may be all gone, but as they said, maybe some of their remaining staff can build a new studios that would then greatly interest Nintendo. We may never get Banjo on Wii U but we can get the spiritual (true) successor of Banjo a-la Mighty No. 9 to Megaman
@erv Mario PARTICLE WORLD; Dr. Mario gets a sickly cold that is spreading all over Mushroom Kingdom. To stop it he must stop it at the atomic level, aiding the antibiotics & the Nucleus Princess! As Electron Mario, Proton Mario, & Neutron Mario!
With this wealth of indie titles coming late 2013 to 2014, with a list of the quality first-party titles they have just announced (MP 8, SSBU, SM3DW, etc.), not including others that may be closer than we think (Wii Sports Club), with the 2nd-party titles (W101, Bayonetta 2, X) and also other ventures, (such as FE X SMT, with "others to be announced") I think by the end of 2014, Wii U is gonna be dominating.
SEGA, now that you know that the Wii U is the home for Sonic, I think it's pretty obvious what the next move should be... EXPAND on the world of Sonic! In the comics/tv, they would always emphasis on how he could run around the world in seconds.. "In his latest entry, sonic is running at lightspeed!" Sonic Universe only for the Wii U! Imagine, running at lightspeeds, jumping over exotic planets, jumping astronomical feats, across stars, nebulas, galaxies? Heck, hearing it now, it could be their spiritual successor to Sonic Adventures 2 but on a mic. grander scale (a scale that has been proven not only shin'en comments but also the scope seen by X) :')
Edit: this is probably going too far-fetched, but it would even be pretty badass that since sonic runs faster than Mario, he would clearly be covering more distance than Mario would; it would be really cool that hypothetically, if this game were made, imagine at the end like end-credits, he's going at his fastest speeds (really being UNLEASHED), & he eventually stumbles upon a red-blue plumber, Mario! Major cliffhanger for what would be a colossal crossover :'DDD
@Zombie_Barioth That is true, they would delay their masterpieces a lot more.. But, still; I can dream right? When they announced SMT X FE I was really hoping that was them in an attempt to expand their horizons. I'm not saying this is the best way, just thought it fit the pokemon style , the same way that SMT fit FE's style. Again, I just wish they could further expand; it doesn't even have to be with second-party developers (I know Atlus isn't, which it makes the whole deal a bit anomalous), it can be within the confines of their first party ip's, such as a Metroid X Star Fox crossover.
@Pinecallado No I did not know. Regardless, my point is. Namco publishes Digimon. Atlus, owner of Shin Megami ip, made a crossover title with one of Nintendos ip's. would it be really so absurd to say that a Pokemon X Digimon title could happen? Especially considering the good relationship between Nintendo & Namco?
Why doesn't Nintendo buy the rights to Digimon? I'm sure it may not be all 'that' easy, but really, when was the last time you saw the the brand Digimon used? It matches their style so well, not to mention the fan base for the series (least up to the 4th generation); honestly if they were to expand Gamefreak studios, and get half to work on a Digimon title (or get key members from Gamefreak to help revitalize Digimon, since X&Y will be the pinnacle of a Pokemon rpg game). Could you imagine a Pokemon X Digimon title?! (nerdgasm)
Its so funny how the more Nintendo reaches out & goes to lengths to really improve, the more negative towards Nintendo get. Say what you want about the Wii U, but I feel it is really turning over the tide in the same way that the 3DS turned around as well, and is now considered the best mobile platform by many.
