The Game Sequel That May Never Be

[TyrannicalFascist]

Yeah, and I wonder why Nintendo hasn't ever released Star Fox 2. It's pretty much completed as far as I've seen. They could release it on Virtual Console or WiiWare.

I agree with mario RPG but I understand the legal issues behind that

Much like a Killer Instinct 3 w/ the whole rare thing

Never understood why they never made starfox for the wii and used the wiimote in some kind of flight stick peripheral

I'd love another LEGITIMATE Star Fox title as well. The last good one was for N64 and after that they took a large and steamy shat on all the sequels that came afterwards. I was so pissed because Star Fox 64 was the first game that I really got obsessed with, and none of the sequels were even close to the same quality, not even by a long shot. 

Maybe they'll cook something up for the Wii U? I'd have that thing reserved so quick....

And I think they never released Star Fox 2 because the N64 was coming out soon and they saw it as more profitable to scrap the current ideas and use them in a more powerful environment. It also might have been seen as a bad move to release such a big deal of a game late in the SNES's life - Star Fox 2 wouldn't have gotten the exposure it deserves and one of my favorite games of all time (Star Fox 64) would have never been made.

Yeah, definitely - I loved Star Fox 64 too. I just wonder if anything has prevented them from releasing Star Fox 2 since. I think the repro carts out there show that people would buy it if released in some form.

I also agree the sequels after 64 have been pretty lackluster, although I do really like Star Fox Adventures (partly because it's old school Rare), but I consider it more of a side series, like Mario Tennis is to Super Mario World.

Speaking of Starfox 2, I'd like someone to finish the multiplayer portion too.
If I uderstand correctly it too was nearly finished and shouldn't be any harder to finish than the single player mode was.

One of my favorite games of all time is NFL Street 2 for Xbox, I was once ranked #2 in the world on Xbox Live. They came out with NFL Street 3 on PS2 only but I would love for them to revive the series on 360! But they willn't because the NFL doesn't want 'street/hood/thugs' to represent their brand. They tried to make a super clean version NFL Tour for 360 but it was terrible!

I'm with everyone that wants Shenmue 3!  Seriously, the PS3 Yakuza games are pretty close - how hard would it be to use that engine with a different setting and story?

Outside of that, I'd love another Panzer Dragoon.  I hear there's a similar game called Crimson Dragon in the works, that has some of the original team on board.  It might not turn out half bad!

But the game I'd like to see most of all?  No question - I want a new Road Rash!  MAKE IT HAPPEN, EA!!!

I'd be all over a proper Shadow of the Colossis sequel. I know that team ICO has a new game comig out and it will likely be a "spiritual" sequel, but I want SotC:2. That's one of my favorite games EVAR. Easily top 5.

Tell me about it! That game just explodes with epicness, gives me a feeling like no other game. Plus imagine all the potential it could have with the power of the PS3. Im pretty excited to see The Last Guardian but I dont think it will compare to SotC.

Another game I always wished would of had a sequel is The Bouncer. That could have had alot of potential to improve into something pretty unique. They did a great job of combining an RPG with a brawler.

i would like a true and good sequel or maybe even a prequel in the Lunar series  the last game released was on ds but it kinda sucked, a must is the same kind of anime video segments  so maybe a cell shaded  engine?

Any sequel or prequel of a home console game on a portable system is BS to me, even if it's good. I loved the 2D Metroid games on the GBA, but would have WAY preferred a home console sequel a la Symphony of the Night.

That Killer Instinct news is sort of exciting, even if it did just mean a high def version of the older games.

 i dont mind the system ( handheld /console ) since all of them are much more powerfull than the original sega cd/PSone hardware

[wiggy]

It's not the hardware specs that concern me, but rather the fact that I'm forced to play it on a tiny screen. I love portables, but some games I'd just rather play on a big screen.


And yes, Arseen, I obviously know I can play those Metroid games on my TV

I was not gonna say no nuthing.
I was not even reading this topic so closely, just the game names.

[wiggy]

I was not gonna say no nuthing.

Is that a double or triple negative?

Triple and by my calculation = I'm was going to say anything.
