Frankly, Nintendo was stupid to just go "Oh we'll make MP4 ourselves", when they have NEVER made a first person game of any meaningful kind, this entire time.
At the same time, people shouldn't get too excited about Retro being involved now. For one thing, literally all of the key figures who made the original MP games, are long gone now. So the same talent that made those games, who had that vision, are no longer in-house. Secondly, what the hell has Retro been working on since 2014? Aside from helping port DKCR. They've had a top secret project going for years, yet there hasn't been a picture, not even a hint as to what it is. Is that trashed now, in favor of MP4?
I've always wanted to see what Retro could do on their own, and not merely be the "Metroid and DK" development house that they've been. And frankly, I'd be far more interested in a (fully, hand drawn) 2D Super Metroid sequel (which, you know, is welcome to ignore the dumber story points of Fusion, and ignore Other M completely), than I am for MP4. I'm not against MP4 happening, but I was good with the trilogy ending as just a trilogy.
