I'm a huge fan of Metroid: Prime. In fact, it's one of my top3 games of all time. I love it.
But, (and this is significant)
Retro has ZERO experience in HD games. Same for the rest of Nintendo. This is where I feel they've dropped the ball somewhat with the lack of power in the Wii and the late release of the Wii U. They have to get over the learning curve pretty fast.
While I have a ton of respect for Retro (mostly for their 2002 epic), they haven't had the same output as ND. The onus is very much on them to show they are in the same category.
I hope they succeed.
