Five interesting (and rumored) titles that might surprise gamers at E3 2011.
Nintendo considers its real-time strategy series, Pikmin, a flagship IP, based on the latest details from its recent shareholder meeting.
I love Pkimin 4, but wish they'd lean more into the rts aspects of the game. Would be interesting if you were using pikmin to gather resources and building stuff. Wouldn't mind if it strayed a iittle bit away from the cozy game territory. Atleast in spin-off.
The "next gen console update" part of this is so clickbaity. The Nintendo president offered an update that they have nothing to update us on.
I'm all in for a new Nintendo generation if they can give us
New smash
New Mario party
New Metroid
New Zelda both in 3d and 2d
New starfox
New IP
New and better pokemon game that really advances the IP
I live in Japan and Pikmin 4 did surprisingly well. Tons of collaborations and marketing. Even now they play ads on the trains.
One of my favorite franchises ♥️
This year promises to be a big year for gaming, and it will definitely be one of the greatest if any of these big MIA projects finally made it into gamers' hands.
Pretty sure Silk Song and Dragon Age are going smoothly. The other 2 can be assumed to be quietly cancelled knowing their publishers and Metroid will most likely be shown off this year.
I remember in 2017 when Nintendo showed off the Metroid Prime 4 logo, and some Nintendo defenders claimed "Just because they only showed a logo, doesn't mean that's all they've worked on for the game."
As history has proven, they were wrong. Nintendo showed off a logo back in 2017 because that's literally all they had.
I think Beyond Good and Evil 2 can stay there unless they are going to just rename it to a new IP
Pretty sure BG&E2 is dead at this point - along with the other game Ancel was working on before he left - I think it was called WILD. Anyone remember that from a PS conference years ago?
Dreadwolf isn't in development hell anymore and is finally getting its reveal in the summer - since 2016 the game has been scrapped and restarted three times but its been going pretty well since the last reboot when EA finally allowed BioWare to just get on with making a single player game.
I'm not sure Perfect Dark is in development hell either - like it could be but we haven't really heard much to suggest either way - imo they just showed the trailer off when the game was still in pre-production. Xbox were desperate for anything and this is all they had at the time. And the reason we haven't heard anything since is just because it's in normal development and games take 5 years to make. The help from a support studio was typically overblown on N4G because nearly every game has this.
Whether it's showcasing damage realistically or simulating fractures and conditions, these games are worth checking out.

We might see a new Metal Gear Solid this year, but I will be very surprised if it's called Metal Gear Solid 5.
We're also very likely to see the new game from Lightbox Interactive sooner or later. I hope it's Starhawk.
GTA5 anybody?
Half life 3/episode 3....it has to happen this year :)
I hope Eight Days will be shown, I know it won't probably happen but I'll keep my fingers crossed....oh and Battlefront 3 aswell.
I think there will be an official trailer of Uncharted 3 showing gameplay and the story
