The story and cutscenes weren't handled by Team Ninja but by Nintendo themselves.Ack wrote:How about a skintight bright blue body suit which accentuates every curve and then let the creators of Dead or Alive: Xtreme Beach Volleyball explain her back story?

Re: How would you destroy a beloved game series?
On topic...
I would create an extremely forgiving, cutscene-laden Metroid FPS that required Samus to simply walk down a corridor killing everything that moved and acquiring enhancements that simply allowed her to kill things at later point in the game in a more colorful fashion. (In other words, there would be no exploration and the "power ups" would be meaningless.) Also, all jumping in the game would be automatic. Finally, I the end of the game would reveal that Samus...is a MAN. (I would then retcon the rest of the Metroid series so that it is clear that Samus is - and always has been - a loud, bald, cigar-chomping, male space marine.)

The Legend of Zelda: Tingle's Pajama Party

Link awake's from slumber to find that he is at Tingle's house during an extravagant pajama party and he desperately wants to leave unnoticed. The gameplay will be firmly rooted in the room escape genre, with an added element of stealth that is particularly hard to master because Navi is always shouting "HEY!" at you and giving up your location.

Re: How would you destroy a beloved game series?
They should stop with the whole survival horror thing and turn Silent Hill into a Diablo clone. Because that's what fans have been demanding all these years.
Although the shock with book of memories isn't as bad as something like CDi Mario/Zelda or Ultima 8/9 since we've had years of Final Fantasy type "slow" decline (4 bad games, one bad and one horribad movie and as a finishing touch they decided to ruin 1/2 of the original series, because making bad sequels wasn't enough, they had to actually ruin the original product in order to really destroy the reputation of this beloved game series), rather than the series going full retard out of the blue.

I'll see your Kinect Steel Battalion and raise you one Kinect Star Wars.

*cilck image to have your childhood ruined*
If I could travel back in time, I would show my younger self that video and clutch at his shirt crying and pleading "Please save the future! Don't let this happen! Don't let it happen!"
