Do you think Earthbound, Game and Watch and Ice Climber should be revived?? They have been represented in SSBM afterall. I mean, look at Fire Emblem.

Do you mean should they be revived in their own series, or should they be revived in SSB Revolution?
Fire Emblem, however, never really died in Japan. But I don't doubt that their appearance in SSBM, coupled with the critical and commercial success of Advance Wars, has had a lot to do with Fire Emblem finally making its way west.
I think all current characters (bar some of the clones) should be revived in SSBR (maybe some more should be tucked away as secrets), but I don't really see how they could all be revived in their own series.
Ice Climber, perhaps, but it's more likely it will inspire a new series - like how Balloon Fight inspired Balloon Kid, and Clu Clu Land inspired DK: King of Swing.
Earthbound definitely. No argument from me. We should never have been denied an installment like this for so long.
Game & Watch? I think unless they release another uninspired G&W Gallery, it has been well superceded by WarioWare.

What Fry eggs said is right, about earthbound mostly, but we will get one for the gba, won't we? It isn't a rumour, I think it has been conformed.

It's been confirmed they're working on one. But any suggestion the game will ever be released is still a rumour. After all, isn't one of the key elements of the Earthbound series the fact that they keep getting cancelled?

As for FE, here:
Fire Emblem 5: 1998
SSBM: 2001
Fire Emblem 6: 2001
So as you can see, FE isn't really a forgotten classic.... it has been continuing. Lame that NoA didn't translate FE6. It can sell.
For me, Metroid seems a better case for "revived old series". I personally think SSBM is one of the reasons why Metroid has continued.

As for Game & Watch, I think that Nintendo should just release a title for the DS that features all of the Game & Watch games. Though the stylus may not have much of a use, some of the games can surely make use of the two screens. It can be called Game & Watch Museum to distinguish it from the galleries.

I've longed for such a game ever since the DS is released. But now I doubt its possibility... |

Do you think Earthbound, Game and Watch and Ice Climber should be revived?? They have been represented in SSBM afterall. I mean, look at Fire Emblem. Short answer: Yes Long answer: Definately especially Ice Climber and Earthbound (not that earthbound was released over here though). |

I think Mother should definately be continued. Though Ice Climbers I can live without. If they made it a Mario platformer I would say yes, but not on the top of my list.

I think unless they release another uninspired G&W Gallery, it has been well superceded by WarioWare. Own series. I did think of Ice Climber becoming part of Mario, but Mario already has a Ice Mountain-like area, unless it is revealed Cool, Cool Mountain and Ice Mountain are one and the same? Earthbound duh. I would DEFINATELY buy it. Game and Watch, the Game and Watch Museum would work, I just thought of a Game and Watch platfromer with the characters all 2D (eg: walking paper people) , but the enviroment and gameplay 3D. Maybe G&M Museum could be the Mini-games (obviously the old G&M games)? |

G&W should be a new 2d game starring mr. G&W in super flat world and rescue a princess from a dragon. oh wait, that is just Mario with Mr. G&W.
Earthbound, No I don't like earthbound.
Ice Climber, yes it would be cool climb mountains in 3d.
