Topic: Third Party Franchises that Nintendo Could Aquire as Wii U Exclusives

[BlackNMild2k1]

Miyamoto did say he could make a great FPS if he wanted to. I wouldn't mind seeing him put his money where his mouth is.

Considering he was one of the executives behind Metroid Prime, I'd say he already has 

Although I think we would all like to see him handle one from the ground up. New IP. especially not a Mario Paint Ball FPS.

[the asylum]

You're not trashing the idea of a Mario Paintball FPS are you?

If Nintendo announced anything like that I would **** my pants. Then I would put on a new pair of pants and **** them too.

[BranDonk Kong]

And then I'd put on your shitty pants and say, "Hey, free pants!"

Miyamoto did say he could make a great FPS if he wanted to. I wouldn't mind seeing him put his money where his mouth is.

What he actually said was he had an interest in doing a first person perspective game. But it would be more about exploring an open world and wouldn't involve guns or shooting people, so it would be an FPS but minus the S.

But Nintendo really should make an FPS franchise of their own because this is the one genre they are completely lacking and missing from their franchise repertoire, and also this one is very important because it is extremely popular in the west. Ignoring a genre is fine if its a niche genre, but FPS is like THE biggest genre out there today. Its a hell of a thing to ignore, but that's exactly what Nintendo is doing. They should try to get in on this gravy train.

I was referring to the time when he said he could have made Halo.

But technically, Metroid Prime isn't an FPS... It's a "first-person adventure" (Nintendo's words, not mine).

[NWR_insanolord]

It's a 3D, first person version of whatever genre you want to put all the previous Metroid games in. I'm talking more of a traditional shooter.

A mario themed paintball would be awesome...I would purchase it instantly...but it couldn't be a FPS...it would need to be 3rd person, because I would want the awesome Mario platforming mechanic intact.  Just imagine...being able to run around Mario 64 style, but also try to shoot and fight off your friends. 

It would be possible with pointer controls only, and would really be a fantastic game.

That being said...I want Bomberman to be purchased by Nintendo.  Make it a party game with traditional multiplayer...online multiplayer similar to Bomberman 64, but with bigger worlds...and a focus on building bomb traps....and such.

Fumito Ueda recently left Sony, imagine having the creator if Ico and Shadow of the Colossus working at Nintendo. I know thats not a third party game but at the moment he's a third party person

What if he started his own studio and contracted a three game deal with Nintendo for the wii U and happened to collaborate with Miyamoto on designing a game?

You guys are dreaming. Then again, Nintendo is funding and publishing Bayonetta 2 and Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's Edge...


So... anything's possible?

If Nintendo wants to win this generation then they have to be agrresive. The only way to do this is to collaborate with the most talneted development studios, publishers, and individual game makers as they can and work with them to make quality games. This is what will sell the Wii U.

You mean like how Sony did the exact same thing this gen and still managed to be in 3rd-place in the "console wars"? [Not that it matters. The "console wars" are superficial and only incite fanboy rage.]

Sony did the same thing that you mentioned regarding Nintendo. They (Sony) accquired many exclusive games by signing deals with different developers (and sometimes buying the developer outright). Despite all their efforts, Sony still didn't win the "console wars".

[Spak-Spang]

Actually, I would say that Sony barely survived this generation because of those deals.  The PS3 was too expensive...there was little to show the benefits of it over the Xbox 360...and the 360 was getting all the big games too.  Then Sony's exclusives and 1st party games helped differentiate they system.  Imagine what might have been if Sony hadn't done that with all the blunders it did this generation.

Most of Sony's blunders happend in the early years of the PS3. As time went on, Sony forged bigger and better exclusive deals with developers. A few of those developers were bought out by Sony, most notably Sucker Punch  (inFamous) and Media Molecule (LittleBigPlanet).

Contrast this with Microsoft, who had some of the best exclusives in the early years of the Xbox 360, but then they completely switched focus to Kinect. Most of their exclusive deals have fallen by the wayside in favor of more Halo, Gears of War, Forza, and Kinect games. Gears of War was probably Microsoft's biggest exclusive series this gen, but they haven't done much else since.

Hopefully Microsoft will balance things out with their next system, but it's never too late to get the ball rolling now.

I would not call their partnership with Media Molecule big as they had never made a game before LittleBigPlanet. Same with Sucker Punch, every game they have ever made (other than the N64 game Rocket: Robot on Wheels) was for Sony. So they had been a second party since 2002.

My point is, Sony has done a good job forging relationships with other developers, both internally (1st-party) and externally (2nd-party). Nintendo seems to be doing the same thing now.

The industry is long overdue for a new Onimusha game. Nintendo should strike a deal with Capcom to make a new Onimusha game for the Wii U as an exclusives. I really liked that series and wish for it to return in some capacity.
 
 
Nintendo should act as a middle man between Capcom and Platnium games to make a second round of the good games, but Nintendo exclusives this time around. Platnium could be contracted to develope a sequel to Okami, a third Viewtiful Joe game, and something new such as a new Strider game.
 
The gaming industry diserves a second round of the Capcom five:
 
 

• Dino Crisis 4
• Killer 7 sequel (in collaboration with Suda 51)
• Viewtiful Joe 3
• Onimusha
• Okami 2

 

[Tamazoid]

Well i'm pretty sure Kamiya said on twitter he wanted to work with Capcom again. . . .

Fixed. Okamiden for the DS was basically "Okami 2".

I am refering to an actual sequel to Okami that uses the touchscreen of the Wii U to draw the paint brush markings and uses the Wii U's hardware to its fullest to deliver a very nice and crisp cel-shaded graphics for the game. Okamiden was like a sequel to the original Okami, but it was kore of a side-quel than anything else.
 
As a preemptive strike, Tendoboy, let's not discuss the above topic of whether it is a sequel or not in this thread.

[Oblivion]

Okami 3 needs to take place on her homeland like they hinted at in the first game and interviews.
