Reggie asking fans on companies working with Nintendo...

Since Nintendo is teaming up with Team Ninja to work on Metroid: Other M, Reggie Fils-Aime is asking people on what company should work with Nintendo, based on one of their IP's. I'd like to take the time to post my thoughts on it.

Well I think it's a great idea, because it gives 3rd party developers the opportunity to establish themselves with the Nintendo Core Fanbase who aren't into a lot of 3rd party titles on the Wii, and also helps them get into more Wii Development. I also like this because while Nintendo works on their key Franchises (Mario, Zelda, Metroid, Pokémon, etc.); 3rd party developers could help Nintendo bring out some of their other franchises (like Star Fox, Fire Emblem, F-Zero), and lesser known IP's (like Kid Icarus).

The only downside that I could think of is that some companies may not really care about these projects, and simply just rush to get it out to the market as soon as possible. Take Namco, for instance. They helped Nintendo work on Star Fox Assault for the Gamecube, and the game is a hit or miss to many fans of the series. One may think Nintendo is skeptical, but they're open to giving them the benefit of the doubt. We'll see how these projects go.

Now as far as suggestions go, I have a couple of my own, but there are others that people may request, as well as choices talked about with the staff of this site. Here's a list of Nintendo IP's worked on by 3rd party developers of my choice:

Treasure - Star Fox, Custom Robo
Capcom - Kid Icarus, The Legend of Zelda (since they worked on the portable ones in the past)
Square Enix - Fire Emblem, Advance Wars, Super Mario RPG 2
Konami - 2D Metroid, Kirby
Sega - F-Zero, Mario Kart, Golden Sun (With Camelot), Pokemon (Console RPG's, Colosseum/XD-Esque Games)
Free Radical - Donkey Kong Series

Some that could work, but up in the air...:
Everyone - Mario Platforming (because you can't really mess with the formula, but I wont rule it out)

Now some that shouldn't be done:
Namco: Anything, because let's face it, they aren't really committed to doing these.
Konami: Yoshi's Island
Capcom: Pokemon
Sega: Zelda

But the twise is that Nintendo should do a couple of games based on 3rd Party IP's:
Mega Man, Sonic (3D Platforming), Castlevania, Metal Gear Solid, Nintendo vs. Capcom, I could go on and on, but that will be for another time.

Well that's all of my thoughts on this matter for now. I'd like some feedback, and if you guys want to express your opinions, then post on the comments section. I would really appreciate what you guys have to say.
