The problem here is that Nintendo has let the Metroid franchise fall into irrelevancy. Fans are expressing their anger in a very 'internet' way. It's hard to believe that Metroid was actually one of their big three franchises back in the day, especially the way they've treated it recently. I feel like its time for us fans to move on, Retro Studios is not the same studio it once was; much of the talent left after prime 3 (7+ years ago).  Moving forward, the best move for Nintendo imo would be to return Metroid to it's roots, in 2D.
