Retro Studios, which once felt like it was about to be shut down by Nintendo, returned to players due to the re-acquisition of the development work of "Metroman Prime 4", but players were curious about the low profile of Retro Studios in previous years, because the Nintendo studio had not produced any works in many years, and now the answer came, and the original Work of Retro Studios in recent years had been canceled by Nintendo.
Recently, Sammy Hall, one of the former producers of Retro Studios, released original artwork for various projects that were supposedly cancelled after years of development by Retro Studios, including a Zelda project from 2005 to 2008 and a project called Boo from 2006 to 2007.
According to some concept maps, the cancelled Zelda project seems to have hick Sheik as the protagonist, and it is the story after the timeline of Zelda Legend Wind Staff. Well, it seems that Retro Studios was thinking of rehabilitating Princess Zelda! If it hadn't been canceled, the Legend of Zelda would have really become The Legend of Zelda!
Judging from some of the setting charts released, the setting of the overall game is really in line with the style of European and American studios, which looks biased towards the dark style and the art style is also super weird. In terms of scenes, there are some sci-fi content including rainforest style, and some architectural effects look very majestic.
The protagonist sees that Hick has really become a man (this is probably something that Nintendo can't accept!), and his face looks european and American! Some monsters and other settings are also very domineering, and it doesn't look like Zelda's game at all!
From these large number of setting diagrams, it can be seen that this should be a large Zelda game, and it seems that it should have entered the early stages of the development stage of the game, and the characters, scenes, plots, etc. are quite large! In the end, it was canceled, it felt like a pity, and it should be a good game to change the name to launch!
Another Boo project seems to be a game developed specifically for handhelds. It looks like it should be a cartoon game with Kingboo in Mario as the protagonist, and it looks like Kingboo has various abilities, which is a bit of Kingboo's version of Kirby!
However, since The Real Studios is a foreign team, its style of acting has really been incompatible with Nintendo, and Nintendo has always been very dissatisfied with the management and way of doing things of Retro Studios. Judging from the project announced this time, Retro Studios has also been creatively placed in the wrong place, remembering that there were previous revelations that Retro Studios once developed a game that sang to fight monsters.
I sincerely hope that this time Retro Studios can regain confidence in Nintendo with the development of "Galaxy Warrior Prime 4", otherwise if this time it is overturned, then perhaps players will never see the Retro Studios logo again!
