the official prediction thread

[thomas]

Not really sure if this is a good idea for a game... but I always enjoy guessing release dates etc, and I think I'm better at it than analysts. The idea is you just make vague predictions here, like "Zelda U will be released in 2015", and then you get to brag about it if you're right.

You can also make other predictions ("Retro's new project is Metroid Prime 4" / "Pikmin 3 will be delayed until 2014"). We could work with points if anyone wants, or even betting ("your prediction is so unlikely, I'm willing to put 10 of my points on the line").

2013
Retro's new project
Zelda 3DS (either Majora's Mask or a new one)
Mario & Luigi 3DS
Good-Feel (Shake It/Epic Yarn developers) new project Wii U
No More Heroes 3

2014
Super Mario Universe (new mainline 3D Mario)

2015
Zelda U (new mainline 3D Zelda)

Super smash Bros Brawl for 2014

2013
Mainline 3D Mario
Retro Project
Excite game (F-Zero?)

2014
Legend of Zelda
Smash Bros

Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together... mass hysteria!

TBA - Every game announced in the future

EA will continue to do poor ports. Ubisoft will be surprised by the great sales of the system and will immediately announce Watch_Dogs, Splinter Cell, Assassin's Creed 4, the next Prince of Persia game and Beyond Good & Evil 2. Capcom will follow suit by announcing Ultimate MvsC 3, Resident Evil Raccoon City Stories, Megaman XX, and Super Street Fighter IV Ultra Arcade Edition.

I agree with Super Smash Bros U for 2014, forgot to add that.

Mario Kart U in 2014.

Treasure 3DS game in 2013 (pretty safe bet).

LostWinds 3 in 2013.

Anyone want to venture a guess when a new Metroid will appear, and whether GTA V will be brought to Wii U? Do you guys think Xbox 720 and PS4 will be announced and released in 2013?

You can take some hints from the Nintendo EAD page. I'm mostly curious what Tokyo Development Group No. 1 and 2 are working on. Could very well be a new Mario for U in 2013, but I'm sticking with 2014.

Metroid... maybe 2014.

GTA V on Wii U - right now I say nope. A PC version isn't even looking likely.

It really depends on Retro, doesn't it? If they're working on Metroid Prime 4, I'd say we can expect it next year.

[pie]

I hope retro isn't working on another metroid game, I wanna see what they do with another series, or what they could make on an Original IP. I'm expecting Mario Kart 8, U, uhhh whatever, in 2013. The Wii U needs Mario Kart, Smash Brothers, and Zelda ASAP. also

2014
F-Zero
Star Fox

And Animal Crossing 3DS here in America for Late May/Early June 2013

I'm still waiting on the Devil World reboot.

Anyway, my dumb predictions:

2013

New IP by Retro
Mario Kart 8 on Wii U. All tracks are just a figure-8 shape, but it still sells millions of copies.
The New Legend of Zelda on 3DS (I wouldn't put it past Nintendo to actually call it that)
Advance Wars 3DS by Intelligent Systems
Pokemon gen 6 on 3DS

2014

New IP by Monolith Soft on Wii U
3D Mario game on Wii U
Wii U Star Fox game by Platinum
Nintendogs/Style Savvy crossover game with dog fashion
Dragon Quest XI on 3DS

2015

Smash Bros. on 3DS and Wii U
Miyamoto retires and Retro are given the go ahead for a cyberpunk interpretation of Zelda. Fans are outraged, but it's actually a pretty good game?
Like five decent third-party games come out all year
