@Ninja, I agree that Minato could've mastered Sage Mode as he got older. However, given his fight style, I don't know if he would have. But it's in the realm of possibility.

What I'm wondering is, why wouldn't he just summon Ma and Pa? He's a perfect Sage, so with them gathering energy for him him, his Sage Mode would be stronger than Jiraiya's. On top of that, it negates his disadvantage of not being able to maintain the form very long.

As far as elemental Rasengan go, I think he'd only be able to manage it with his affinity. Too bad we don't know what it is lol. But, my here are my 2 cents on what I think each of his Natures would do, if they were his affinity.

Wind, we already kind of know. A smaller version of the Rasenshuriken (and since the small Rasengan variants only blast forward, it wouldn't cut his hand up like the Rasenshruiken would).

Fire, I think the high density and rotation would make something close to like a ball light saber. A glowing hot ball that can sear through nearly anything.

Lightning, I think the speed associated with the nature would let him use it as a projectile. Like, A bolt of lightning holding the force of a Rasengan behind it. This would help him add range to his arsenal too.
