Nintendo’s annual general shareholder meeting information was made live yesterday, et bien qu'il y ait les chiffres habituels et les détails commerciaux disséminés partout, some interesting details have emerged from a discussion that was held during the meeting.

VGC rapports (via @NStyles sur Twitter) that one shareholder reportedly asked if Nintendo had any plans to revive past IPs through new games or remakes. The shareholder then mentioned a handful of titles, ranging from obscure Japan-only games and a big Nintendo franchise that hasn’t seen a new game in nearly 20 years.

The franchises the shareholder brought up are the racing game series F-zéro; Baten Kaitos, Monolith Soft’s GameCube card-based RPG series; Terre Wario, the Mario spin-off that hasn’t seen a new game since the Wii; two Intelligent Systems games in Kaeru no Tame ni Kane wa Naru et Kousoku Card Battle: Card Hero; et Ch?s?j? Mecha MG made by the Earth Defense Force les développeurs.

After NStyles tweeted out about the request, another user — @momiji_manjyuu — claimed to be the person who asked for these titles.

Not all heroes wear capes, droite?

The list is killing us, and many of you also want a brand new F-Zero or Wario Land game in particular, but there’s a handful of really interesting games otherwise that would all be great games to bring back. Baten Kaitos — given Monolith Soft’s prominence with Xénolame — would make sense, Rien ne vaut le sentiment de fierté et d'accomplissement que vous obtenez avec un verdict "non coupable" et la série Ace Attorney est assez grande pour faire du début la seule ligne de conduite logique., we’d really love to see all of these make a return.

But now that the notes from the meeting are live, NStyles has noted that the only game that remains mentioned in there is the futuristic racing title.

Here’s a rough Google translate of the tweet (so take it with a grain of salt), but it looks pretty promising for F-Zero fans!

After the general meeting of shareholders, you told Mr. Momiji, who asked this question, “If the title part is completely cut in the minutes, you can judge that there is no pulse, and if F-ZERO remains in the minutes, you can judge that it is a pulse ant.” ..
He listed multiple titles, but Nintendo left only F-ZERO. Isn’t this a clear F-ZERO appeal to us?

Essentially, if a title is left in the minutes, then it means that Nintendo is aware it still exists. Yay! bien sûr, that doesn’t mean much considering that Captain Falcon has appeared in every Smash Bros. game and hasn’t had a game since the mid-2000s, but it’s something, droite?

Surely F-Zero can make a comeback soon. Former Nintendo of America President Reggie seems to think Nintendo hasn’t forgotten about that series, au moins.
