A 2D platforming Bowser game where you do all of the original worlds in reverse, but different levels so it has a proper difficulty curve. When you get to the end, either you kidnap Peach and the game morphs back to the original 8-bit graphics as Mario chases after you, or Bowser just brings Peach a birthday present to make the end less villainous.

Better idea. Take that concept for going through the worlds backwards, but then you have to run away from Mario with peach going the normal way with different levels as you have likely destroyed the terrain as Bowser.

@@LostSoulSilver Tbh I wouldn’t really blame WarioWare for the lack of Wario Land games. It’s mostly due to the fact that Wario Land was more or less a replacement for the 2D Mario games, but after 2D Mario became revitalized with the New Super Mario Bros. series, Nintendo saw little reason to continue it. Which’s a shame, ‘cause it’s really good…and with us getting no 2D Mario game since NSMBU and WayForward now working on an official Nintendo game, I’m entirely praying that they’ll be able to develop a brand new Wario Land sometime in the near future.

[@Wendy_O._Koopa]

If they won't give Waluigi a game, at least make a 3D Mario-type game where Wario and Waluigi can trade off like in Mario Galaxy. And the two have wildly different skillsets, so they each find different... whatever the Power Moon equivalent is. Actually, it's starting to sound like Donkey Kong 64. Let's embrace it, so you go back to the WarioBarrel, where you can also choose Mona, 9-Volt, or Kat & Ana (with some sort of dual Ice Climbers type control scheme). Let me write this all down, so they can ignore it at the next pitch meeting.

As for Waluigi I feel like since Wario's games are all about getting rich which is basically a warped version of Mario collecting coins on his quests to save the princess maybe Waluigi would have something with ghosts/boos? Like a reverse Luigi's mansion where you help the ghosts haunt places and steal whatever you find once whoever lives there runs away terrified... Though that stealth game you suggest is also cool, a tall and lanky Waluigi trying to hide from a toad guard would definitely be a sight to behold...

Vergil deserves his own game. He’s playable (and a damn EXCELLENT playable, at that) and he has a couple of unique cutscenes, but his “Story Mode” is always just him running through Dante’s/Nero’s stages! You could argue that we got this to an extent with V in DMC5, but as great as V is, he’s not quite the same as Vergil. There are several huge chunks of the Blue Devil’s story left untold, moreso than his twin’s, even if you figure in the DMC3 prequel manga (which was left unfinished anyway). It would be no big stretch to make a prequel game built on him getting into contact with Arkham and finding and releasing the seven demons acting as Pillars to seal the Temen-ni-gru away from the world, or even put him in an entirely new story preceding the manga or his time in Fortuna City. Give Dante and Nero a rest and give Vergil a real opportunity to be the protagonist for once, not just a spiffier reskin of his brother and son!

I desperately need a game about Zeke from Xenoblade 2.

We do get some backstory here and there, but nothing really substantial... After he got exiled, he's been a wandering swordsman for like 15 years (he's 25 by the time we meet him)...

[@protohunters]

Can't say I have an idea for a Waluigi game, but I have a mind for a game that would put Waluigi into the spotlight. A game starring Luigi and Daisy on a journey to rescue Mario after he's disappeared going to rescue Peach again. It'd be a cross of platforming with team based mechanics as the two would have different skills and you could swap who's in the lead. Then you could also have town segments where you talk to people and try to figure out what's going on and what to do next, with the ultimate plot twist being Waluigi is behind everything. He'd periodically show up in the game as a joke boss initially, until he becomes the main antagonist, even finding a way to usurp Bowser. I would call it either Super Luigi/Daisy Duo or Super Luigi/Daisy Detective Agency. Pretty much the whole gist is the game would focus on all the Mario characters that always get shoved to the secondary roles in favor of the traditional Mario faces.

A Metroid game where you play as Dark Samus would be awesome. It doesn't have to be he hunting down Samus, or go the bland, conventional "being made of pure evil gains appreciation for the gift of life" route. Dark Samus took on Space Pirates and discovered the Dark Aether. That is a gold mine of backstory. Plus, if she needs to be in the story, Samus _herself_ could appear as a boss. We don't need to kill her, contrive the story to make it so one can't live without the other, it could be a secret superboss. And with Metroid Dread coming out, a darker, possibly even more eldritch-style Metroid game would be bonkers.

I know Waluigi won't be on the list, but I just imagine that a Waluigi game should be a genre-breaking experience that harkens back to other past Mario/Luigi/Peach/Yoshi/Wario games while making itself it's own special experience in it of itself. Best part is I'm not kidding.

HOLY SHIT I DIDN'T THINK YOU'D DO IT

Zeldas been anywhere from absurdly powerful to quite the tactician. They are different characters, sure, but she has been shown to have quite the potential and I think the best way to handle her as a playable main character is to make her journey intersect with Link similar to how she offered him help in OOT. That way you can plainly see hes still kicking butt trying to help her out, but its in the background as Zelda does what she can. Heck, the game could be split into two with each being playable so that both sides of the story are told if they insist on Link as the main character, and she could use a different formula from his gameplay, perhaps leaning less on hearts as powerups? More a glass cannon with you picking up spells or tools as you go could work really well. Just spitballing, theres plenty to work with with her where others dont have a solid place to start from and it needs to be created from scratch, but shes got history of badasses bluntly.

[@jembozaba4864]

I would pick pretty much every character from KH. Xion, Kairi, Mickey, Demyx. Everyone deserves a game

Top 5 main antagonists who turned good

[@Omeganed0]

Honestly Cortex was my least liked gameplay type in Crash 4. Maybe if they went the Overlord/Pikmin route like Cortex Chaos was planned to be, or found some way so you're still the villain rather than just pitting Cortex against a more powerful villain. I would buy a Dingodile game without hesitating, though.

I wish Sega would branch out with Sonic's side characters. Imagine an actual fishing simulator with Big, or a 'bullethell' with Tails and the Tornado? Sonic Team kept introducing gimmicks into their games trying to find something that stuck. I've always thought the Werehog's combat style would work well with Team Dark. Then they could keep fans happy with just Sonic and momentum platforming and save the really wacky experimental gameplay for Sonic's friends. And while not focusing on one specific character, I'd love Pokémon to do more. It feels like they're afraid of spin-offs these days (unless they're mobile games), Pokémon Ranger and Pokémon Mystery Dungeon are great spin offs. I'd love a Pokémon Breeder simulator where I care for the Pokémon dropped off by trainers, help them become stronger etc. or maybe one where you're police officers actually going after villainous teams for once. XD

[@genericfriend2568]

I would've loved a Handsome Jack spinoff that revolves around building up his armies and actually showed him in a more human light after his fall from grace and into power.

[@shawnheatherly]

Any one of these games proposed here could be a lot of fun, but the number 1 entry is something I feel genuinely deserves to happen. I sadly don't think it's gonna be in the next title, but it must happen one day.

[@randomclustermissile8701]

Now that danganronpa is on the switch there’s a much higher chance of Monokuma being added to smash and that would be very funny

[@ReaperHunter23]

0:36 Dude, I've been saying for at least 6 months that'd I'd like to see them try something like this with Captain Falcon, since they are so averse to making another F-Zero.

[@DaveTheVader]

If you count Smash for WiiU and 3DS as different games, Captain Falcon has now been in as many Smash games as mainline F-Zero games.

[@TheHylianBatman]

Either Zelda will be escorted through all of BotW's sequel, or she will be switchable between Link.

[@dallinrichardson284]

Not sure if you edit your own videos but your habit of adding footage of other, minor examples of what you're talking about before introducing the next example makes your videos shine. Also Talos bless you for putting Hades music in this

[@Ashtarte3D]

Ciri has a canon ending already. Her becoming Empress is the canon ending for the games according to CDPR and there is a whole other ending for fans of the books. There is perfectly fine other Witcher characters we could play with. Like how about Triss Merigold or Letho of Gulet? (Assuming you let him live in Witcher 2)

[@jaketucker2559]

I think you’ve got number 2 and 1 mixed up because while playing as an op magical girl named Zelda would be fun, some people tend to forget that we kind of already did, but it goes to show why Nintendo won’t make a Zelda game with Zelda being the hero playing identical as link and with voice acting that so bad it makes dingo pictures look professional, non canon, it makes perfect sense why she doesn’t have a game or why link doesn’t have a cutscene voice, we don’t want to be reminded of the dark ages

[@louis559]

My idea for a Waluigi game. The goal would be to cheat in a bunch of sports competitions. I imagine Goose Game style segments where you find ways to sabotage your opponent before each competition, and then playing the actual sport.

[@tluets]

Master Hand/ Crazy Hand, and they'II add in motion controIs for Ieft/right hands

[@rswat2013]

Once again an amazing video my fine sir. The golden tray basket thingy is now in use, a brilliant conclusion to the enigma I expressed in the comments of your last video. :))

[@NinjaKIngAce]

Never mind having his own game, Waluigi needs any kind of bigger role, outside of sports and party game. Make him a mini boss in the main Mario games, or a sidekick role in the Wario games. Just something to expand his character

[@Stephen-Fox]

Given the... Various official renders... and his associations with Luigi... Clearly Waluigi should have a dating sim called Waluigi's Condo. Meanwhile, the Zelda game I particularly want is a Windwaker spinoff where you play as Tetra. Because who doesn't want to play an action-adventure game as a badass pirate? And it would be great to get a new Zelda game with that art style.

[@newbiegamelover4767]

Waluigi's Mansion! I've also thought that Maki Harukawa and Himiko Yumeno from Danganronpa V3 could use a game of their own; specifically, that Ultra Despair Girls 2 that was teased during the first case. As for which role they should play, I'm not sure. I guess that would depend on the type of story that Spike Chunsoft would want to tell. Of course, there's also Rantaro Amami in his own mainline game. For those who've gone through the entirety of V3, you should know why.

[@Stephen-Fox]

Waluigi's Condo. Lean into the "Second banana to someone who's already second banana" thing with the title and marketing. And make it a Dating Sim because, well, look at him. And the key art, official renders, and theming of the special abilities he often gets.

[@circeciernova1712]

Imo it would be really cool if one day Nintendo decided to make a racing game based on Captain Falcon. I know, it's an impossible pipe dream, but just imagine.

[@Glitchtophertm]

Man, I would actually love to see a Zelda game that starts of like normal but the longer the game goes on the more you realize that you aren't Link but actually Ganondorf. And by the end, he doesn't want to be the villain but is forced into the role because of how the past games and stories have been. Make him more of a tragic villain. I know it might seem cliche but I think it'd be interesting for a Zelda game.

[@MetallicD3ath]

You know, we got the ricocheting bullets all the way back in mgs3, as long as you use the SAA. And they did awesome by making it "kind of" homing? Like you don't have to be insanely accurate, really makes you *feel* like Ocelot. And of course, the idea of using that as a *main gameplay point* and also getting to understand just what Ocelot has had going on in his head sounds like an amazing concept and I want that game why is it not #1? Ah, wait I see, it's characters who "deserve" their own game not ones that I want. Well, I guess I can let that slide, then.

[@DaveTheVader]

If you want at least a 2D game that goes really deep into ricochet as a gameplay concept I highly recommend CrossCode. It's only like 20 bucks and available on all consoles and PC.

My top 5 picks: 5. Murphy from Rayman 4. Wolf O'Donnell 3. Ridley 2. Albert Wesker 1. Paper Luigi

[@s.p.d.magentaranger1822]

Personally, I'd like to see Rosalina, Zelda, or various Sonic characters to get their own games. Could be interesting. On an unrelated note: Top 5/10 shows based on games? Man, I'm like a broken record.

[@Dr.Deluxe]

I can't speak for everyone but I really want Bowser from Super Mario to have his own game. I know he was a center focus in Mario and Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story but Super Mario Odyssey's final level made me want a Bowser platforming game... Imagine a platformer with the big bad heavyweight smashing his way through obstacles.
