One of Nintnedo’s most underrated franchises is Golden Sun, the cult classic series of turn based JRPGs that they released along with Camelot on the Gameboy Advance over a decade ago. The original couple of games were followed up by Golden Sun: Dark Dawn on the Nintendo DS, an entry that was widely disliked by fans and critics alike, and which failed to move the needle in the market.
However, a new Golden Sun potentially could be coming. Nintendo has filed a trademark application for “Golden Sun”, alongside with applications for “Rhythm Heaven”, “Wrecking Crew”, and “Mario Super Sluggers”. Now remember, companies file trademark applications all the time (especially a company as zealously overprotective of its IP as Nintendo), so this doesn’t necessarily have to mean anything. But even if it is just a re-release of the original games, I think many fans would be greatly satisfied by that.
Maybe this could also be an announcement in tonight’s upcoming Nintendo Direct…
