| Experimental42 said: Well there will inevitably be a price drop, which will be huge. They already anounced a very LATE Smash bundle on the cheap to unload excess stock of immovable 8gig models. I expect next holiday to be pretty big. Lower price point, larger library, Zelda U and possibly Metroid U. Xenoblade may be delayed until the holidays for NA as well. Call me crazy on Metroid but: Nintendo was dropping a lot of hints about wanting Retro to make Metroid, including the Metroid pin by reggie and Iwata saying they loved their work on Prime and would love them to make more. Shortly after DKC:TF, and even a little before its release, Retro began work on another project. The head guy said they were working on a secret project, and nobody has gotten any information on it since. Assuming a ~two year development cycle, the launch window for the game they're working on could be released during the 2015 holiday season. |
You could be right, but I think if there's a Metoid game in 2015, it'll be for 3DS, not Wii U. As you said, it's likely a 2 year dev cycle for Metroid U, and since they probably began work on it in Summer '14, it'll probably release in Summer '16.
