Is it finally time for a Star Fox?

Star Fox, F-Zero

A lot of fans have been wanting franchises of Nintendo to return. Right now, it seems most fans want sequels rather than new IP's. When I say this, I mean the most wanted thing is a sequel. With the release of Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze, Retro Studios has become quiet with work, or so many of us thought.

Not long ago, Retro announced that they are working on yet another game; in fact it is 2 months into development. Right off the bat, fans of Metroid began to make their routes on the internet stating that this was their long awaited Metroid sequel. But a surprising turn of events occurred when Retro said this:

"You’re not going to find a larger bunch of Metroid Prime fans than at Retro studios. We’ll be lucky to someday, maybe, work on another one. There’s a lot of people in the studio left over from Metroid Prime that are very passionate about Metroid… If the fans keep asking, then maybe we’ll answer.”

Keep in mind this is after they announced their project. So what does this mean? Well for many gamers it means three things. 1) Star Fox fans will finally get the game they have been longing for since Gamecube, 2) The F-Zero franchise will make it's reappearance after such a long time with no game, or 3) Nintendo fans will have a brand new franchise to play with.

For me, I can't wait for any of these. I am a huge fan of Star Fox and played it ever since the SNES, however I am also a huge fan of new IP's and F-Zero. Personally, I would want this game to be a new Star Fox. It's been so long since a since a fresh, new, and awesome one came out. I loved 64, still replay Adventures, and beat my cousins at Assault. A new Star Fox would be a sight to see. But like I said, and F-Zero or new IP would be just as good.

What do you think? Do you want this game to be Star Fox? F-Zero? Or a new IP?

    I should also point out that a job listing was posted for several things that could relate to all three games (Metroid, Star Fox, and F-Zero). See my recent post "Is Metroid in early development" for more.
