Very excited for this new metroid prime games. Have played the games since the nes era. Funny thing is that my favorite metroid games were on the gba for some reason.

@curl-6 That will cost a pretty penny, it should hopefully pay off. According to that list, there will be an online component to the game (Apex, the matrix online). Game is promising, I have some doubts but the new Nintendo wouldn't let this game disappoint imho

@curl-6 your list looks pretty insane from the outlook I gave. It seems there are a good amount of veterans from the later Metroid Prime games and DKC games so, big part of the vision prolly came from them, while they used the expertise of all those hirees.

The only thing I wish is that the studio doesn't embark in the same asinine practices we saw by a few other studios under other publishers.
Mainly studio crunch.

It's time for Retro to redeem Samus Aran's design. She has looked like a Barbie doll since MP2.  Use the model in Remastered or similar design.

Maybe closer to the concept art in 4.

I'd be happy if they retained her design from Prime Remastered.

Man, it must horrible when she gets that pony tail in front of her visor by accident !

After 7 years since it was first announced, we finally get to see some gameplay for Metroid Prime 4! I can't wait!!
