Nintendo franchises that need a revival

As most of you may know, Kid Icarus: Uprising released not even a month ago on the next gen portable Nintendo 3DS. A revival no one, not even Nintendo, saw coming in its future. Some screamed, others fainted, most were shocked into skepticism and the real question always was: How is Nintendo going to pull it off? Fans rejoiced and from the user base it not only sold good but it was a delayed revival well worth the wait. So why couldn't Nintendo pull it off again?

Three great games... I'd like to see a console Kid Icarus on the Wii U. Ice Climbers was such a great game... in that vein I'd also like to see an updated version of the original Mario Brothers. As for F-Zero, Wipeout HD is an excellent alternative.

what about the earthbound/mother series?
nobody seems to remember those gems from the old days.

ill take earthbound game on the wii u over those listed anytime.

I'd rather not have a new Mother/Earthbound as the series is perfect as it is. Having it re-released on the 3DS though, that's something I'd like to see.

Ice Climbers was the shit for me and my brother years ago! I loved that game!!! Was ecstatic when I saw they were in Melee. XXXD

what about a remake of the stadium game

3GenGames4409d ago

Stadium Events? AKA World Class Track Meet? LOL! Why would you? You have no pad, the Wii already has too many crap fitness games, and the game wasn't spectacular at all.

Terrible idea. Hopefully you don't mean Stadium Events...plus, Stadium Events is by Bandai.

I always wondered why they never made another Mario bros. game.

Zelda Replay: Majora's Mask

VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Is Ocarina of Time as legendary as I remembered it? For the most part, yes. In spite of a handful of missteps — a few obtuse puzzles, some tedious backtracking, and a clunky stealth sequence — I don't believe the last 23 years have been unkind to it. Ocarina remains a brilliant example of the medium, a landmark game that shaped the future of its own franchise and 3D gaming in general. After more than two decades it retains its inventive dungeon design, challenging puzzles, dynamic combat, wistful storyline, unforgettable music, and empowering open-air freedom. I feel confident calling it one of the greatest games of the fifth generation, even if I'm no longer prepared to list it among the five best games ever made."

Pure unadulterated fun. They don't make them like this anymore...especially not the triple A industry.

Back when video rental was a thing, I rented out Majoria's Mask, I never finished it though. I did buy the 3DS version before the eshop shutdown, so maybe one day I'll finally play through the whole thing, it's amazing how well these games hold up though. I briefly played Ocarina of Time for a while and it was really fun.
