I'm still getting to play the game, but in some small way I will feel like I made my message clear by not buying a game I feel didn't need to be made.

I didn't buy prime 3 new. 

Your not understanding what I'm saying here. I liked the original, but wanted Retro to move on to something more ambitious. While I'm immensely disappointed in the decision to make a sequel, I still would like to play the game. However, I don't want another Donkey Kong game from Retro. So I will buy it used which lets me play the game that I do want to play, without giving Nintendo any money. 

         Two things. Number one, the reason they are doing  a DK game is because DK games sell. The last thing Nintendo wants to do with the WIi U is put games that are gonna sell badly. Metroid games, new IPs and so on from Retro would sell terribly compared to DK. Number two, your boycotting is  useless. Only a small amount of people are going to boycott it. Let's not mention that when the marketing will start for Tropical Freeze, more people will want the game, making the boycotters look dumb since the game will have great sales.


Yeah I get they sell well, but all Nintendo puts out lately is guaranteed safe hits. So I really don't give a shit that DK sells well. Metroid games sell terribly when they are terrible (other M), but when they are good they will make money. You don't know a new IP won't sell because Nintendo never makes any.  My boycotting is keeping them from 60 dollars, and I'm not the only one. I get that you want to be a true Nintendo fan amd combat all criticism of any kind, but I have my own opinion, so why don't you just stop trying to impose yours on me.

 2 new playable characters, the composer of the original trilogy is back,blowing was replaced with plucking which is already a better mechanic, longer levels, no need to shake the wii remote to roll, a new dynamic camera, a new story, a new set of enemies.

I dunno if it will do anything, but it doesn't hurt to try. Saves me a few bucks anyway. i'm not boycotting it, I'm just buying it used. I'm not the only one either, so don't assume that it will do NOTHING.

I am pissed they are making a sequel. I loved Metroid Prime 1 and 2 to death, but I didn't want prime 3 to be made. I was ready for them to move on. There is not much you can really do in a 2D plat, and they have the talent to make games as intricate and ambitious as prime. 

DKCR already proved this thoroughly wrong, as did Rayman Origins.

This is sarcasm right?

No. Nintendo needs to stop being so kiddy and grow up with the times. I'll buy another Nintendo game when it's an FPS.

metriod is an FPS so that doesnt cut it. you will buy another nintendo game when it isnt a nintendo game

 I thought Metroid was a FPA, first person adventure?
