Resistance 3.  Seriously, it's not that far off from what you asked for.  Just apparently don't play it with the Move.
I can no longer stand to play shooters with an analogue stick, so it needs to be on the Wii.

Well, the motion control option is available to you with Resistance 3 via the Playstation Move.  Outside of reviews, though, I've just heard little good about it.  But if you have or will get a PS3 sometime in the future, I really recommend the game because it is very much like what you say you want in an FPS.
There was a Signature here. It's gone now.

Wouldn't be crossing my fingers for a KI3 anyway. Not only is Rare just plain not interested in reviving it, I wouldn't want the current Rare touching it with a 30 foot pole

Rare has shifted gears and is now focused more or less exclusively on Kinect. I doubt this will happen anytime soon, but if it did it would be a Kinect game, and therefore play very differently.

I demand a Retro developed 2D Metroid. But I suppose that could be for Wii U, Wii Ware, 3DS, whatever. I just demand one. Or six! Six is better.

As long as Sakamoto doesn't have a say on what the story is like and they change the voice actors then I'm all for a new 2D Metroid. Maybe they should do a 3D Metroid and 2D Metroid sort of like how there is Super Mario Bros. and then the Mario 3D games.

I said it before, but Wayforward should do a Zero Mission style remake of Metroid 2 for the 3DS (with a map on the bottom screen) and then do a brand new 2D Metroid under Nintendo's direct supervision. Then, after completing Star Fox, Retro should do a third person Metroid game that takes what made Other M good and then fixes what made it bad. Think of a Metroid game done in the style of Arkham City, for example.

Other M was a good game, but after playing it, it would have been an even better game had Reto Studios developed it themselves. I really like those over the should moments in Other M, so if Retro studios did a third person Metroid in the style of Other M and the Prime series then that would be good.

Retro should be called upon to make "The Wire" the video game, simultaneously destroying Nintendo's Kiddy image and making the best video game known to man.

Some are calling for Retro to reach deep into Nintendo's vault and pull out Star Tropics.

I've never played the game and have no idea what it's about, but it's been described as Zelda meets Uncharted with a Sci-Fi twist.

But honestly, as long as it's a game that Retro wanted to work on then all is good.

Speaking of Dread, what if Retro did a Judge Dredd game?

There is going to be a new Judge Dredd movie next year. Obviously there needs to be video games based off that movie license.

Oh my... I've never thought about Retro attempting a Star Tropics game... but yeah. That would rock so hard. ST is definitely a Zelda/Uncharted type game, and Retro, with its crazy attention to detail, would do a phenomonal job. I'm sure of it.

Star Tropics makes a lot of sense actually, it has Zelda-esque gameplay, which most Nintendo fans love, the original series was made in the U.S. with Japanese supervision with no aim to sell in Japan. Apparently it sold pretty well, which is odd because it seems pretty obscure. Its a good time for the series to be revived as well because it could look fantastic. It would be good for a creative team too because its almost like starting from scratch, but not. IDK I have post-apocalyptic mach rider floating through my head.

I think Star Tropic would be an excellent fit for Retro.

3D Metroid needs to enter it sleep cycle.  I don't think we should see one for a good 5 years at least.  I do think it is a good time for a 3DS Metroid 2D game.  I also don't think Retro should do it.

Actually 3D Metroid (Prime Trilogy) should be ported to the 3DS

Visor effects in 3D would look really nice.
scan data can show up on the bottom screen along with enemy info.
I think it would be great.

I really really don't care for Other M but that game didn't suck because of the third person perspective.  It proves that third person 3D Metroid can be done.  It just needs a not-retarded story, non-linear progression, and to fix little nit-picky stuff like how you do not get energy from defeated enemies (that REALLY made the game a pain for me to play) and how you're a complete sitting duck when switching to first person view.  Retro could learn from the very small amount of things Other M did right and make a third person Metroid, which would be different enough from the Prime games to not feel like a rehash.

I like the StarTropics idea though.  If Nintendo is just going to stick with the same old franchises this would be the closest we could get to a new IP from Retro.

yeah im going to agree with Ian about other M, the main reason that i was disappointed in that game was the un-skipable cut scenes with the horrible dialogue and voice acting. It was like watching a bad anime :/ unfortunately it wasn't funny it just made me depressed (metroid is my favourite franchise) the 1st person was bad but i could deal with that if it wasn't for the cutscenes.

What I would want to see is a game that went back and followed in the footsteps left by Goldeneye and Perfect Dark on the Nintendo 64

I know im late for this reply but you should check out Goldeneye source. It's a faithful remake of the Goldeneye 64 multiplayer and its online.
