A Nintendo shareholder reportedly asked Nintendo to release a new F-Zero game during its annual general meeting on Tuesday.
As reported by NStyles, during the Q&A portion of the meeting one shareholder asked if the company had any plans for new titles or remakes related to past IPs.
They then specifically mentioned games by name they’d like to see, including F-Zero, Baten Kaitos, Wario Land, The Frog For Whom the Bell Tolls, Trade & Battle: Card Hero and Chōsōjū Mecha MG.
Nintendo’s general manager of EPD Shinya Takahashi is said to have replied (as translated by VGC):
“Regarding remakes of older titles, we are thinking about a wide range of interesting ways to try new and old things. We received a similar question before. At that time, we happened to have a remake planned, so we discussed it, but there are things I cannot say right now.
“It’s not a remake, but here is some footage of titles for the latter half of this year,” Takahashi added, before rolling a video of upcoming games including Xenoblade Chronicles 3 and Splatoon 3.
Following the Twitter transcription, a person claiming to have asked the question, who goes by the username @momiji_manjyuu, responded: “I am the one who asked this question! I delivered your enthusiasm directly to Nintendo management!”
Although the shareholder wasn’t able to directly see the board while asking their question, they claimed that Nintendo execs Shigeru Miyamoto and Shinya Takahashi “looked happy when I was naming the titles I wanted to see sequels to”.
