Question A New PilotWings from the Makers of Rogue Squadron?

Well, rumors floating around the Net is that there is a new Pilotwings in the making from the developers of Rogue Squadron, Factor 5. Well, I don't know what to make of it, I mean Factor 5 can make games dealing with flight and whatnot, and ofcourse now how to make graphics looks nice.

Oh, I dunno, I mean, Paradigm did such a good job on Pilotwings 64 that somehow it should really belong to them as a franchise for the GC. Sadly, I believe that Paradigm went bust recently, so I suppose Factor 5 are ideal replacements. In a utopia of course, Nintendo would buy out the shell of Paradigm and dedicate it to Pilotwings, but sadly it will not come to be.....

I've just had a horrible thought: What if Pilotwings for the GC doesn't scale the soul-funk heights of it's predeccesor? I might never get over my grief if that occured.....

I thought factor 5 was a second party like Rare used to be? I always thought they could only make games on a Nintendo console...I guess I was wrong...

And pick up a bottle of SquareEnix while your at it.. and a loaf of Capcom... and a bag of Namco.. and a sixpack of Sega. Oh and don't forget to pick up Rare again. I think he's been over at little Billy's house too long!

I didn't like Pilotwings 64. I though it was weird.

3........2........1...........pants wet.

I might be one of the only people on these boards to own both PW and PW64 and I can say that if this game gets annouced at E3 I'm reserving it the next day. I cannot believe this news.

AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So because it just might be worse than PW64 that means that they shouldn't even try to make it?

The things people say........
