I'm gonna grab my copy of Other M on Tuesday morning after I get off from work and I plan to enjoy the hell out of it. But looking at the sub stellar (but mostly positive) reviews, I don't think this game is going to be as successful as it needs to be. I think that after the Prime Trilogy, The Wii remake of the Trilogy (that didn't make a lot of noise), the DS games that failed to make an impact (pinball and Hunters), and finally, Other M, things are going to be quiet on the Metroid front for a while. I hope I'm wrong. |
Reviews have nothing to do with anything for how Nintendo games sell anymore. In fact, semi mediocre reviews are almost a sure sign of success: top-reviewed games never crack the 10 million mark, and the crap never really goes anywhere, but the 60s 70s 80s games are the 20 million club :P
Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.
