@Onyxmeth: That's not what Reggie said at E3 :P

Also I'm kinda talking more about the fans when I talk about the 'holy trinity' :P

Reggie can say whatever he wants. He knows what brings in the most money though, and Metroid is lucky to crack the top 10.

I was commenting more on your "Just how likely is it that Nintendo would release a fully fledged installment of each of their big three franchises in the same year?" statement, since Metroid is neither top three big as far as critical reviews go recently, nor is it anywhere near top selling, meaning the fans are choosing other titles like Smash Bros. and Mario Kart over it. I mean hey, I love metroid as much as the next guy, but outside of the one time Samus was back on top of the world (the original Metroid Prime) she has merely settled back into a secondary series for Nintendo.

Critically Metroid Prime was 2nd only to Ocarina of Time on game rankings. I'm not so sure about sales, but as far as quality it's definitely is one of their best. The top 3 on there used to be Ocarina of time, Galaxy, ad Prime, until GTAIV's BS reviews came in.

Look at the highlighted section.
