Why?

Also, you must burn every copy of Mario Party 10 you find. 



My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.

Why did Nintendo choose to make a new numerical sequel for the series? Numbers too big look silly for games that aren't Final fantasy. They don't do it for Mario or Zelda so why MP? Or is this name just a place-holder to make it more clear to the public on what type of Metroid game they're working on, and later-on will be replaced with an undertitle?

I'm gonna posit that you're likely about the only person who was interested in a new 3D Metroid that found "Prime 4" to be a negative lol

Frankly, I've always preferred those... if I have one big pet peeve with sequels and reboots it's when they ignore their past games in the title or even simply re-use an old title (looking at you 2016 "Ghostbusters!)

Star Wars is up to VIII and I don't hear many complaints! Of course, I suppose in some instances, such as "Castlevania XXIV" or something, it might not look quite as cool lol

No one wants to sayit, but I know we're all thinking it.

Fixation on numbers.
Fixation on trivialities.
Rigidity.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

Metroid is a very low tier franchise.... If we are at MP9 that means not only is it big we have an extra 5 games to play! Silly? Hell no not to me :p



Can't we wait until we know something about the game before we complain?



That's just to make sure people don't think its Metroid The Baby The baby The Baby The Baby The baby The Baby!



This question won't have a definitive answer until we see more.
