To be fair, it’s not really a “potential” anymore. Nintnedo confirmed back in March that the successor would be announced “within the fiscal year.” So it’s completely realistic that speculation is happening, as such an announcement implies Nintendo is much further into development than most of us initially predicted.
My mistake, I misremembered. It was in Unreal Engine, and IIRC it was right before they released the shitty 3D All Stars port.
Like the Mario 64 Unreal Engine remake?
Edit: Unreal Engine, not Unity. My mistake. My point is that unless the project uses absolutely zero intellectual property, such as characters, stories, or franchise names, Nintendo will almost undoubtedly take ruthless interest.
Switch consoles are still selling as well as ever, and most of them come bundled with MK8D
So even if you’re not interested, you might still get a digital copy of the game just because it came with your console.

I mean they can’t do worse… Right?
