Thanks! Glad you like it! I'm trying to be as transparent as possible.

The lack of variety in the top sellers in the console market is pathetic. 90% first person shooters. Nintendo is pushing back, and we want to help them push.
Thanks for giving us the time, and your feedback. I really do appreciate it. Even if you are not on board.

But here's the thing. How many kids are so interested in the hardest platformer series of all time that they have already beaten the other four games in the franchise? That number is practically zero. Kids don't need Ghost'n Goblins Demon World.
I also counted them and there are around 25 entries in Amazon's Top 100 that are suitable for children. Sports games also outnumber shooting games of any kind. "90% First person shooters" isn't an accurate view of the market.
I also greatly appreciate it, thanks for answering.

And if they do, how much creative control will you retain? And if they don't, I can't imagine they would allow a game that is so similar, even down to the naming, to come out on any of the major platforms.

On a positive note though; have you contacted Seow Zong Hui and his team? They were responsible for Street Fighter X Megaman which received Capcom's blessing, they might be able to give you some tips.
