You know what’s sort of crazy? The last time an original Retro Studios-made game released was in 2014 with Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze. We’re now coming full circle with a port on Switch later this year.
Retro often works in the shadows. We don’t often hear about the company much, and it’s anybody’s guess as to what they’re working on currently. Four years in between games is quite awhile, and fans are very much interested in Retro’s next title.
Could Retro be developing another Donkey Kong game? A resurrected Nintendo IP? A new IP of their own? Just thinking about the possibilities are exciting. Let us know about the ideas you have for Retro’s future in the comments below.

First 4 Figures is gearing up for a new Zelda: The Wind Waker statue featuring Link on The King of Red. Yesterday, the company shared an unboxing video that offers a closer look. Take a look at it below.
System: 3DS
Release date: February 13, 2018
Developer: Atlus
Publisher: Atlus
It amazes me how even after years of incredible games from a system’s lifecycle, we have been consistently impressed with the “cherry on top”, if you will, at the very end that leaves its mark and gives players one last hoorah before the inevitable new generation. It was Zelda: Breath of the Wild on Wii U for example, and now Radiant Historia on 3DS. With Radiant Historia, we can revisit one of the titles that made the DS so great, and gladly add it to the 3DS’ ineffable library of RPGs. It’s an encore that shows nothing but respect for the craft, the legacy of the DS and 3DS, as well as the genre as whole.
Update: Just like that, everything is back up and running. Thankfully the downtime didn’t last very long at all.
Original: If you’re having issues with Splatoon 2’s online functionality, there’s a reason for that. Nintendo is currently conducting emergency maintenance.
Splatoon 2’s network services were impacted starting at 11:31 AM PT / 2:31 PM ET / 7:31 PM in the UK / 8:31 PM in Europe. This is still ongoing. When it ends, we’ll let you know.
