But again, this didn't cost nowhere near as much as a metroid would. Thats my point as well. And calling it shitty is 100% early as its a game that is most likely sold 150k+ so far to retailers without holidays+Europe/etc yet. The game will hit over 300k lifetime, calm down. 

And stop acting as if Metroid is savior of money making. I love Metroid and all but kirby racks in Wayyyy more money than Metroid easily.

Even this quote on quote shitty sales probably done better in profits than a few Metroids. (coming from the worst selling Kirby too,thats a spin off)

I doubt this will even profit. Everyone says this is a budget title, but this is one of the best looking games on Wii U.

Nintendo just needs to kill off Kirby and we'll all be fine. Let HAL make a new IP.

I never act like Metroid is a big money maker. I don't even care nor ask for a new Metroid game.

What I do want is no more 2D games on Wii U. And especially no Kirby.

This franchise is nowhere near good enough or sells enough to have justified 23 (!) games in a time span of 22 years. Get real.

You doubt it but if they shell out 400k-500k i bet thats definitely far enough, especially going by they are only charging $40, not to mention They green lit this while the predecessor sold 720k on DS. Its definitely not as bad as your making it. Equivalently FE on WiiU would need 600k+ to profit as stated by nintendo i believe back in 2012/2013. This game wouldn't nearly cost as much to make as that.

Also, stop with the "Kirby needs to stop/die"... Its BS! You just sound like someone tht doesn't like a franchise, thus it must stop.

 

"This franchise is nowhere near good enough or sells enough to have justified 23 (!) games in a time span of 22 years. Get real." 

Jokes on You apparently^ As they wouldn't make that many games if there wasnt something there. BTW the last Kirby is over 1.7mil and will head up over 2mil+ lifetime, seems like they aren't going to stop, especially with a spin off budget title. You can bet will get at least 1 more Kirby, and it just might be a 2D Platformer for the WiiU which i do hope comes.
