Let's be honest, federation force got a bad rep for having metroid in the title. If nintendo made a rocket league clone for the 3ds and called it f zero sports, people would also have a meltdown regardless of the gameplay. And rightfully so since Nintendo is pursuing small spin off titles in place of large fan requested games. Bethesda also said that if they announced fallout shelter and no fallout 4, people would also be angry at them. This isn't people being hateful to Nintendo, this is just Nintendo ignoring its fans.

I don't know if reviewers had the game or not, it's not that far from release so it wouldn't surprise me if they do have copies. However the main point is that you don't actually have to buy every title to make educated assumptions on them (e.g. If I say that Devils third's gameplay looks like a ripoff of cod, I can point to the gameplay trailers to support that). That's not me being hateful, that's me giving an opinion based on what was shown, and if Nintendo what to change that, they better release a trailer that shows the game in a far better state

agree about Nintendo really not hearing the core base on what the gamers want.  they try to but i think they really don't have all the people to work with the games people want.  the spinoff of metroid, seems okay, it is just on how they really presented it wasn't good.

i won't buy the game to have educated assumptions but i buy if i think the game suits my taste. the reviews are helpful before, but paid reviews are worst.  i didn't say they are paid reviews. but for me, there are certain games, i would like to try for myself and if i can enjoy it or not.  demos would be helpful if Nintendo would do that. which i think they limit the number of games they want to have a demo version on eShop.

Yep, federation force just had bad timing. If they had announced it after announcing metroid as something to fill the gap, things would have been fine. But doing so may have people worried about Nintendo moving on to the NX, since that's where metroid is most likely to be on.

if you're interested in the game, more power to you for wanting to properly try out the game. Just don't be quick to call the people who don't follow suit haters like you did initially. Not everyone wants to buy and play superman 64 to know its bad
