Probably not developed by Nintendo, which for me, is a no go. The last 2D Metroid I loved was Fusion.

Overall, what Nintendo is doing these days seems to be a far cry from their heyday. Like Disney, they use to be known for either wildly imaginative new IP, or revolutionary new ways to play older IP. Now, over the last few months, it's mostly Switch 2 versions of Switch 1 games, or remakes of thirty-year-old IP that I still own and can play whenever I want. And the few "new" games like Yoshi and Prime 4 disappoint. It's like Disney 2.0.

Happy for all you who are happy, though. Genuinely.

While that is very true, it's weird to put that in the Metroid Ravenous thread haha, since this is a brand new game I don't think anyone expected and a sequel to the awesome and highly regarded Metroid Dread. This is literally one of the first brand new exciting first party games on the system.
