Whatever they diverted those resources to better be good. Retro Studios cancelled a total of four titles, at least one of which looked very decent, to work on the original Metroid Prime, so it sometimes works out well.

This time the developer doesn't look all that promising though.

True, NST is the worst out of the important Nintendo studios... I hope they are developing Wave Race Wii now instead, cause Blue Storm was the only thing they have really done entirely right till now.


Thanks for praising Blue Storm, it's a great racing game. But there are other good games on NST's list, like Ridge Racer 64 (was very good for it's time, the DS port which is basically the same game feels outdated now), the Mario vs. Donkey Kong games and to a lesser extent 1080° Avalanche. 

Metroid Prime Hunters sucked. Blue Storm represents the peak of this studio, since then it has gone downhill. Project Hammer cancelled is nothing to get angry about, it probably was at best an average game, maybe even not fun at all, like twesterm said about 12 times in various threads. 

If ckmlb wasn't a mod, I would have sent him a request for nominating himself for the fanboy elimination thread. But mods shouldn't participate in this game, whether it be a nomination or voting. No shams, no stof, no BenKenobi88 as well.


I forgot that they made the Mario vs. Donkey Kong games. The first one was a lot of fun and the second one had a good concept, but it was way too easy and the puzzles were not difficult at all.  I have never become a friend of 1080°, I think it's quite boring. My favourite Snowboarding game was Dark Summit anyways. I have never played Ridge Racer 64 nor the DS version so I can't judge this game.

 However, if somebody with my username says that they are "the worst of the important Nintendo studios" it isn't such a bad thing anyway. They're games are still quite enjoyable, but as I said the only big hit they created yet IMO was Blue Storm, and they don't reach the quality that EAD, Intelligent Systems, HAL, Retro and such studios do.
