Game ideas?

Recently, I've been thinking of some game ideas based off Nintendo characters and my own characters. I want people's opinions on what I should do and what I should complete. Here are some of my ideas:
-Legend of Zelda RPG
-Sidescroller Zombie Shooter
-Ninja game
-Legend of Zelda horror game
If you want, you can really come up with game ideas of your own and you just have a chance of having them done.
EDIT: Your ideas cannot be too advanced, I'm not a know-it-all programmer/developer.
There is no knowledge that is not power.
I'd love to see a Kirby game with full 3D movement. HAL seems to scrap every great Kirby idea they start.

But if that's out of the question, I could get behind a "Yoshi's Safari 2" where you can upgrade from eggs to small arms or even discover tanks and aircraft to help you temporarily obliterate the foes... of course, enemies would burst into coins or drop eggs for when you run out of ammo to your better guns. It'd be cool if it had an online multiplayer where everyone's Yoshi color depends on which group they're in, and it can be multiple groups vs. each other OR deathmatch where Yoshi colors are randomized. We can even add in fruit for health restoration, and Super Happy heart-shaped fruit for temporary invincibility. Mushroom could briefly make you huge as well and you'd be able to OHKO anyone closeby with your feet and only be able to be taken out by a tank or aircraft. Ground Pound can exist as a melee attack. Giant eggs (as seen in Yoshi's Island) can be explosives that take out all Yoshies nearby.

Now I really want this to happen.

Just look above you...
If it's something that can be stopped, then just try to stop it!
- Donkey Kong RPG, similar to the Mario RPGs (with action commands and whatnot)
- Mario RPG where Peach teams up with Yoshi
- Metroidvania-style Mario game
- 3D Yoshi game, something like Super Mario 3D World
- 3D Peach game

I could think of plenty of original games as well, but let's not get overwhelming.

I'm working on a hack! Check it out here. Progress: 64/95 levels.
Another Mario game that borrows SMG's general level design tactics and illusion of exploration.

SMG1/2 is probably the apex of the Mario series as a whole but I'd love to see another game like it.
Super Mario Galaxy 3 and Super Mario Sunshine 2.

Just as long as the artificial difficulty is toned down.
How about:
-Half Life 3 (even tho that doesn't star any Nintendo characters.)
-Some kind of puzzle game inspired by Chip's Challenge or Enigma.

Okay, I might be aiming for that actually. I also might do a puzzle game depending on the time I have.

A 16-bit remake of StarTropics

I also have a similar idea. What battle system would you have? Turn-based? Or action-oriented like Secret of Mana?

Sorry for the long wait. Also, the battle system would be action-oriented.

Facade/Ambition crossover.
I'd be interested in seeing a direct sequel to SMB2 USA. Bring back all the old characters (Birdo, Wart, etc.) and gameplay mechanics.

I'd kinda fantasized about something like that for Super Mario World. Yoshi's Island doesn't count. I was thinking a 'Lost Levels' version of SMW made by Nintendo as opposed to a ROM hack, except probably different enough to not be a mission pack sequel. And obviously more difficult. I feel like SMW has that 'first installment before a sequel difficulty spike' feel.
The SMB2 sequel would be awesome as well.

Oh snack, I only read the title and forgot this was the same thread of someone asking for game ideas.

SMB2 USA is kid of seen as the black sheep of the series due to its origins and how much the gameplay differs from the rest of the series. However, I don't think that's a bad thing. I like the gameplay and setting of SMB2, plus even though it gets flak, it's been hugely influential on the Mario series as a whole (introduced Shy Guys, Pokeys, Bob-ombs, Ninjis, Birdo, etc.; set the standard of the "abilities" of the four playable characters it featured; and more). I'd love to see another game like SMB2 myself.

Something else I'd like to see is another Zelda game that plays like Zelda 1. The other games are cool and all, sure, but none of them even come close to the sense of adventure and exploration the first game achieves.
Did you know that like...
I now have a crap ton of projects?
Including a Doom-styled game and a Megaman classic fangame?

How about a shooter with maps like DKC's levels? That might be pretty interesting. Would make some great spots for hiding and things.
Shepard I like that your amount of creativity when it comes to "game ideas" is mashing an already existing franchise with a different game genre. Also people are just reading the title of your thread because it kind of makes a direct statement that this thread is for video game ideas and not just you trying to get idea to make a fangame. Not sure why you're all mad that they're doing what the title of your thread is indicating them to respond to. This thread isn't really about you anymore;; people just want to throw out their ideas, and I say let them.
Zombie sidescroller? How about this: the humans overcome the Zombie Apocalypse, and send off all the zombies into space and forget about them. But the shuttle carrying the zombies crashes on an alien planet and start terrorizing the alien race. Huh.
