They didn't do shit though.

They gave Metroid II remake to a very questionable developer with a poor track record and just gave us a logo of Metroid Prime 4 with no footage, we don't even know who made it.

This doesn't bode well for the end-result of those games. As a Metroid fan I'm not happy. I'm starting to wish it was dead instead tbh. Now they're just ruining the reputation of a once great franchise.

What you're saying don't make sense. Why would you ever want to wish it was dead?

idk why anyone would be upset. I'm excited to see what comes. It could be meh or it could be BotW.

Metroid: Other M and Metroid Prime: Federation Force. 

The sad thing is, there are much better Metroidvania games in development or out there than Metroid: Return of Samus. I'm talking about games like Hollow Knight and Steamworld Dig. I'll be buying those instead of that 3DS Metroid game.

Nintendo finally gives us not 1, but 2 Metroid games that we asked for, and you still can not stop complaining about them? Damn. I now see what Reggie was talking about years ago when they announced Pikmin 3. He said something along the lines of "we give the fans what they want (in Pikmins case, a new game in like 8 years), and they either complain about it, or they say, is that all? What else you got"

This isn't what fans wanted. They wanted Metroid Prime 4 developed by Retro. They got the game, but not the developer.

What kind of horrible fan are you?

I think its very clear that they only announced Metroid Prime 4 because of the 3DS one, so to reassure Nintendo fans that Metroid is comming to the Switch and not have fans like you have silly reactions like that.



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

I like how the very first reply was a complaining Metroid fan, lol

lol Unfortunately that's what the Metroid fanbase is known for.

So you're saying Nintendo knows that the 3DS game will be terrible? 

Yeah... I hope you see the issue here. 

Anyway, I don't believe everything a multi-billion dollar company tells me. Just because they showed a logo doesn't mean I have faith in the project. Maybe they haven't even started developing the game yet (I'm thinking this is the case, as they don't want to reveal the developer behind it).

No, because they knew there would be "fans"like you that would freak out and flip tables because there wouldnt be any Metroid on Switch.The same move was made about Pokemon and they saying that Relax, its comming to Switch.

As a Metroid fan I was very satisfied with today's announcements. The Metroid 2 remake looks really fun and well done during the gameplay. I really like the Melee Counter addition.

That's different.

People were doubting that the Switch was the true successor to the 3DS and they were unsure if it would receive a main-line Pokémon game. They just reassured us. Main-line Pokémon games are never in doubt, they will keep churning those out because they sell incredibly well.

Metroid Prime 4 though, the uncertaintity is much higher with this one, we don't even know who's developing it. If it was Retro Studios I wouldn't have doubts, but now I do. If they can't show footage at least tell me who's behind it. Otherwise I'm not going to believe there's an actual game in development right now. Remember Star Fox Zero that was announced before Nintendo even found a developer for it? How did that turn out?

So yes, I'm worried, and I have every right to be.
