Metroid is already a niche title. The majority of games in the franchise are stuck in a box of 1-2 million sales, and this was clearly an attempt to break out of that box, which is equally clear to have failed (though not spectacularly. It'll cruise to a million handily enough, but still on the low end for the franchise thus far
There is significant question as to how the suits will interpret it, though i think in this case the results are clear: the most controversial changes were the ones generally disliked
The question is if they mandate that the entire gameplay system of Other M be trashed along with the increased focus on story. Loss of the former would be quite tragic.
Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.
