Other M bomba! Even though I despise the game, I hate to see it do poorly. Nintendo might put Metroid on another 8 year hiatus :(


Or nintendo will see the light and retro will give us real Metriod game, not this imposter

Less then 100.000 sales for MoM in japan and others, but with us sales it might reach 190-200.000. Not good 

Nintendo made a Metriod that appeals to the smallest percentage of metriod fans

I sent nintendo emails outlining why I will not finish this game and trade MoM  in for DKC

Sakamato is one of the creators of Metroid, and a top guy at Nintendo. What makes you think your (e-mail) opinion will triumph over his?

Not my email alone but all the other metriod fans who are emailing Nintendo over this game, and their are loads of angry metriod fans

Nintendo owns the franchise not sakamoto

Sakamoto didn't stink up prime and it did well on the small GC base. In fact he does not have a great opinion of the prime games. And prime was by far superior to MoM imho 

Sakamoto was co-creator he didn't really have a hand in the making Super Metriod.  And those games didn't have the weepy samus except for the average zero mission

The reason Samus didn't have more character in metroid and supermetroid is because of limitations of the then system. Sakamoto said that in some of his interviews. Does make sense. 

The problem for Nintendo was the small amount of Metroid fans to begin with. They needed a bigger audience. Outing the 'purist' fans for more general fans would be their goal for other m. Metroid has to become bigger... or might go away for a while.

Send whatever mail you like. But Your email - if sales will not be good in a year or so - could help shelving Samus for a generation.
