so basically it's either Pikmin 3 or a MetroidMetroid 2 remake by team ninja?

awesome!!

also, isn't this Ross character the painter with the happy clouds? I thought he was dead...

You're thinking of Bob Ross. This is Jonathan who is a former BBC talk show host and is also the husband of Jane Goldman, the co-writer of the film adaptation of Kickass. He also voiced Barry Hatch in Fable 3 and has done various BBC mini series such as Japanorama (he's a big anime/game fan)

Anyway, finally hearing about a release date will be nice as well as seeing some new titles. Pikmin would be nice to see, but maybe we'll get some 3rd party stuff too. I can't see a new Metroid already, though if Team Ninja and Sakamoto really HAVE started on another one, then criminy

My guess is if SPD1 is being set to anything, it's likely a WarioWare 3DS. WarioWare probably beats Metroid sales, and would certainly be more profitable even at similar levels, and Nintendo might be squeamish on committing to another Metroid so quickly.

More like announcing one merely FIVE MONTHS after a previous installment would never happen. It's not a choice of "if" for a flagship franchise like Metroid, merely "when"
