Peter Molyneux Wants To Bring His Next Game To Nintendo Switch

From NintendoLife: "Peter Molyneux's name may stir conflicting emotions for some players, but you can't deny the fact that he's been involved with some groundbreaking video games, including Populous, Black & White and Fable. He's currently plying his trade at 22cans, the studio he formed after leaving Microsoft, and has already released Godus and The Trail, the latter of which made it to Switch last year."

If he works closely with Nintendo for quality control then it has potential. He should really think about what Nintendo fans don't currently have in exclusive IP's and create something that could become a franchise. If it's a cash in, he can just keep it. Bring the heat because if the game is good to great, it will sell. Think like Nintendo and with Nintendo...lol

[badz149]

and put Mario in it for confirmed sales

[King_Noctis]

Mario is not the only franchise that sells on Nintendo platforms.

[eagle21]

If he can't come up with anything original, then beg Nintendo to use one of their many IP. It doesn't have to be Mario as Nintendo has so many characters or franchises that fans would love to see return again. StarTropics, Earthbound, a new Kid Icarus, etc. StarTropics seems more his speed and it would be awesome to have another one! If he is smart enough to figure this out he will see millions of dollars. If not, well....lol.

what an idiot ....a man that had NO relation with games (he was just a sales man) in someway created a successfull thing (black andWhite) only because the huge talent of real developpers behind the original Lionhead team (and not because his worthless direction) , and afterward proved he is worthless and talentless as never managed to create somthing good , only tried to promote sht games with talks and interviews....i dont understand how companies with funds are still supporting this garbage maker in order to keep him still relevant with video games

[locomorales]

It's always a good strategy for a studio or producer that have failed to delivery bring his next game to a Nintendo platform.
Nintendo fans are pretty vocalic and in exchange for a exclusive title they will relieve the defects.
Smart move Peter.

Just thought about and wondered what happened to my favorite XBox hype man. He used to crack me up year after year 😂😂😂

[nismo370]

He is worthless

[Gwiz]

Him and Sean Murray come from the same town lol,coincidence?

[AuraAbjure]

He can do it if he believes in himself. Just find that real inspiration Peter, burning to make its way onto the scene.

[Smokehouse]

I like molyneux, he has some great ideas. Sometimes they are beyond his abilities but dreamers pave the way.

[SethBrundlefly]

Good doc here, four parts:

[masterfox]

I think he is the perfect developer for the Switch, his reputation is unmatched ;)

[just-joe]

Well if it's like anything idea of his, it'll never see the light of day.

[JesusBuiltmyHotrod]

Don't believe this mans lies lol.

[SuperSonic91]

Muwahahaha!!!!!

[jznrpg]

Maybe he has a good game in him but ..... don’t have impossible goals and then tell everyone that’s what you are going to deliver and then proceed to deliver a turd .Just make a game that’s possible with today’s technology (which is pretty damn good except for Switch) and that your team is able to make. His lofty goals and Switch don’t seem like a good match to me at all. He had good ideas at times but werent possible with the tech , budget and team he had. He didn’t understand the technical side enough to not over promise . I don’t think he will ever deliver because he doesn’t know how to make a real game he just had good ideas that don’t come together

[TheOpenWorlder]

But....can we see ALL the acorns? HHAHAHAHAHA

[AK91]

No thank you

[Knushwood Butt]

The Trail ? Never heard of it.

More hot air from this guy. He should take up ballooning.

[SlagWolf]

Another over hyped , under delivered game from peter?
Nah fam, I’m good

[quent]

He hasn't made anything special since Dungeon Keeper, empty over hyped underdelivering promises are more his forte

[ShadowWolf712]

Reggie, run. Don't look back, just run.
