Is Metroid Prime 4 in trouble?

[VAMatt]

You gotta keep in mind that the Metroid series isn't a huge seller. Nintendo isn't talking about it much because it isn't a huge game for them. It's big to Metroid fans, who are overrepresented on gaming forums like this one. But, not to the general gaming public. It isn't going to move the needle for Nintendo. So, a lack of info and marketing doesn't really mean anything, IMO.
