I've said it before and I'll say it again Retro should make the next StarFox game for Wii. StarFox has been needing a proper sequel since 64 and the Wii controls sound perfect for a StarFox game.

If they made a new IP it wouldn't really be "Retro" I also would like to see them tackle a 2.5D Metroid game, But they need to make StarFox I know they can do it and that it would be glorious.

If they actually allow me to play with the classic controller Id definitely buy the sequel. I hate being forced to use pointless wiggle waggle when its not even necessary like in the current game. WTF happened to giving the gamer control options?

@Scissors

Make this happen!

The one thing that kept me from getting this was the fact that you have to shake the nunchuck to roll..normally shaking it wouldn't bother me, like optional uses,twilight princess,no more heroes,but precise rolling is needed in this in combination with the jump to reach a lot of areas..I'm guessing it gets easier with practice,but I was really put off by it when I played a demo...is an optional control scheme really that time and expense consuming?

Retro Studios should be expecting orders from Nintendo for a sequel soon. No intelligent company would have a game release to over 4 million sales in under 5 months without seriously considering a sequel.

If history repeats itself (which it most certainly will) Retro will share the same fate as Rare.

It's best they don't do anything to upset Nintendo who got rid of Rare because they were jealous of their success.#inevitable

@tuoman

I don't know about that. I know you don't HAVE to roll that much, but it is a move that I would do a lot.. I loved rolling quickly through levels in the old games, and it seems like the only way to get the gold medal in the speed runs, you have to perpetually roll/jump throughout the entire level.

I wouldn't mind a sequel on the 3DS that lacked irritating motion controls.

Seriously, look at the last few years of Rare content with Nintendo. It's some dreadful stuff. Star fox adventures was a terrible Zelda clone whose only real fans are god damn furries, whose taste is beyond anything rational.

Um, Rare was bought out by Microsoft. It doesn't matter though because by that time Rare had lost key members.

In my mind retro is a solid gold studio that has pumped out nothing but little nuggets of perfection, whatever they do next will probably be great

@Masterballs - Not all of them, but many did. They're kinda all over the place now, I believe some are with Retro now.

Rare really took a turn for the worse after PD and Conkers got out. PD suffered many delays and toward the end of the game you could kinda feel the quality dropping off, though it was pretty strong overall. Conker's was good on presentation, but the context sensitivity was a bit too much.

By the time you got to SFA, it was a drooling mess of a game with no real talent behind it. Sure, Nintendo pushed the Star Fox element on it, but in the grand scheme of things the Stamper Bros. had done all the real damage.

So what happened to Rare won't happen with Retro.

Retro loves where they are right now. They have great talent and get to take their sweet time on projects they enjoy. Nintendo wanted a new DK game, but they didn't really expect Retro to jump up and say "Yes, please" like they did.

With Retro Studios, you can feel the love in every corner of their games. I'm happy DKCR did so well for them. I'd love to see a 2.5D Metroid in their hands, but whatever they're doing - I'm looking forward to it already.

My math may be off here, but from the numbers I've seen it looks like DKCR has sold better than all three Metroid Prime games combined.

I'd like to see just one sequel to top it off. Returns was heavy on allusions to the first DKC but not so much the second and third ones; DKC2 in particular is something I'd love to see them give the same kind of makeover in Donkey Kong Country Returns Again or whatever they call it.

Then they ought to get to work on the next Star Fox, like Scissors said. Hell, I'd be fine with them skipping over another Donkey Kong if that's what it means they do instead.

@Scissors
They need to do Star Fox and Pilotwings.

Donkey Kong Country will be back. Nintendo isn't going to ignore the fact that the game quickly sold 4.2 million copies by the end of 2010. I suppose a sequel could be made faster now that the game engine is already built, (do snow levels this time!) but Retro's probably going to want to do something else.

As great as DKCR was, I'd prefer Retro Studios to either work on Starfox or an original IP.

Donkey Kong Country 5?... Please Retro?...

Some Fixes to do at DKC5:
-Partner Change. We want to play Diddy in Single player!.
-Roll, stomp, blow as a button or use classic controller.
-MOAR worlds.
-MOAR madness.
-Bring K.K. Roll Back!...

Whoops, hit the wrong button. As I was saying, Donkey Kong or not, I'm sure I'll be happy with my next Retro game purchase.

I think DKCR created such a good foundation and still managed to be fantastic that I can't stop salivating over the idea of a sequel.

Why does everybody get pissy over the use of motion controls? As long as they don't over do it I'm fine with them. It's just when you have to waggle to open a door is when it becomes unnecessary.
