I'm glad Nintendo is getting what they deserve sometimes, they are half assing the metroid series.

Now maybe the poor sales are due to people thinking the new metroid games aren't worth buying, or maybe they just don't care about Metroid anymore and the franchise is slowly dying.

Anyway, to me if the future of metroid are games like Samus Return and Federation forces, the franchise is probably be better dead.

Maybe MP4 will be the messiah, but I'm not holding my breath

Samus Returns is not a new game, its a remake.

It's a remake in the same way that Castlevania 4 is a remake of Castlevania 1.  In other words, it's a completely different (new) game that retells an old story.
