So Duck Hunt is pretty incredible in Smash 4. It's inspired. The great thing is it's not like "Duck Hunt Dog" like many speculated but is a brand new never before seen duo called Duck Hunt. Presumably their first names are Duck and Hunt. They're great together! They attack together, Duck flies and pokes out with her beak, and Hunt has a bunch of gun related moves as well as appropriate melee stuff. Watching it I sort of get chills. If Rare was not with Microsoft this is what Banjo-Kazooie would've been like in Smash Brothers.
Anyway let's talk revival. I would love love love a good old fashioned old school retro 3D platformer. I just want it to be Hunt, Duck and colorful worlds/characters inspired by light gun of old games that would never see the light of day again otherwise outside of a Warioware Minigame in the early 00s. That'd be great. Also I want it to involve ducking, no pun intended, and doing moves from a duck. Basically I just want bootleg Banjo-Kazooie.
I don't want it to any way shape or form resemble a lightgun game because those are passe and even on the Wii they didn't get much of a foothold despite them being much more feasible due to the Wiimote. It needs to be like Kid Icarus, just a clean break from the old stuff. 3D instead of 2D, etc etc.
Man I'd love a Banjo-Kazooie type game starring those 2. Duck Hunt Adventures or something. Look at the 6th skin up there. Sakurai knows what he's done. Hopefully Nintendo picks up on that and makes it real.
