Old Nintendo Franchises We’d Love To See Again

OLD NINTENDO

While the prospect of more Splatoon, Zelda, and classic Game Boy titles is great, some fans are itching for old Nintendo franchises to return.

The most recent Nintendo Direct delivered some pleasant surprises, such as the shadow drop of Metroid Prime Remastered. Pikmin’s return this summer also makes fans eager to dive back into Nintendo’s strategy franchise.

Wario Land has been a perfect complement in the past to the Super Mario Bros. games. For some reason, the series seems to focus primarily on handheld releases on Game Boy and Game Boy Advance.

WARIO LAND

Before its surprise release on the Nintendo 3DS, Kid Icarus was an older Nintendo franchise that seemed destined to stay on the NES. With 2012’s Kid Icarus: Uprising, the series leaned more into the third-person shooter/action genre.

KID ICARUS

Some old Nintendo franchises offer glimmers of hope to return in the future. One of them is Mario & Luigi. As a featured day one release of Game Boy Advance games for Nintendo Switch, Nintendo seems to see some value in the popular RPG series.

MARIO & LUIGI

Speaking of Nintendo RPGs, the Golden Sun series saw success on the Game Boy Advance and Nintendo DS from 2001 through 2010. Yet, for over a decade, the series has been dormant.

GOLDEN SUN

Nintendo’s space combat franchise has been in a prolonged rut. Despite the success of Star Fox 64, no other game in the Star Fox series has seen the same universal acclaim. Sure, Star Fox Adventures on the Nintendo GameCube was a fun game.

STAR FOX

DONKEY KONG COUNTRY

It saw a revival on the Nintendo 3DS, Nintendo Wii, and Wii U. The Retro Studios developed Donkey Kong Country Returns and Tropical Freeze were met with universal praise.
