Much better word!

And yep. 2016 is the perfect release date for a new game and I'd imagine they'd want to reveal it at least a year before launch, and what better time than E3 to do that? It wouldn't even have to be gameplay, really. Just show closeups of Samus' armor in HD graphics, and a wide shot of an alien landscape and a title; everyone would go nuts.

I'd prefer some gameplay footage, to be honest. CGI trailers usually mean that the development is still very early on.

True. But I'd take CGI over nothing. At least that would confirm that something is being produced.

Fair enough .

I don't think we'll see Retro's game tbh.

I do. Whether that's Metroid or not, I don't know, but whatever it is I think they'll want to show off something.

Part of me wants to give you the reason, because I don´t want to be dissapointed, so I´m not expecting it.

However, is the rational part the one that is saying me that the chances are really high, we know they have been working on a new game with a new graphic engine for WiiU, we know that Nintendo is going to show games for 2016, we know that the next year is the 30th anniversary of Metroid... Idk, it seems very possible to me. Also take a look at this, is interesting.    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZrGg4onKUg

If you are going to be pissed off with Nintendo because they don´t show a Metroid, then better stick with the pessimistic scenario.

But there´s a big chance.

.... I think splatoon is going to completely shatter most predictions made.... Holy hell the preorders in Comg be shocking.

Splatoon is showing signs that is going to be as big as I though.

The negativity around it those months was only a waste of time.

I think Splatoon will end up being bigger than my FW prediction (300k WW) but I'm not sure by how much. I'll have to see how well it does on COMG in the end, because so far it's outpacing Pikmin 3, Super Mario 3D World and Xenoblade Chronicles X by quite a large margin, and all of those games had a pretty substantial opening for a console game.
