Reggie Says He Is Aware That Nintendo Fans Want A Traditional Metroid Game

One of the biggest requests on social media is a brand new entry in the Metroid Prime series developed by Retro Studios. Instead, we received Metroid Prime: Federation Force which wasn’t really what the fans had been hoping for. Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime says he is completely aware that the fans want a traditional Metroid title by Retro but basically can’t say anymore than that. It seems as though a new entry to the Metroid series would be on NX.

Totilo: “And I’m not… Next Level Games is making it, and I believe in them, because Luigi’s Mansion Dark Moon is fantastic. Mr. Tanabe has overseen many a great game. I think the question for me, which is a little different than what I’ve seen from some of our readers, I’m not so convinced that this game is going to be bad just because it doesn’t look like what I want. But my curiosity is: Do they [Nintendo] know that people still want a Samus Aran adventure?

Fils-Aime: “Absolutely.”

Totilo: “I was surprised there was no messaging that said, ‘Don’t worry, we know you’re interested in this as well….’”

Fils-Aime: “Look, we know that the fans want a straight Samus Aran game. We also know that the best way to launch a game like that is to surprise and delight them, to give them a launch date, in an environment like this let them play it vs. what other companies do which is to announce a project that you may not see for five, six years. It’s just not the way we do things. We know the community wants to see a straight-up Metroid game. We know it.”

  1. Reggie Says He Is Aware That Nintendo Fans Want A Traditional Metroid Game [And He Doesn’t Give A Shit]

    1. No he basically said that there is nothing me in development, but to far away to show off. I’d take this as a fairly good confirmation, but not trust it completely.

      1. Seems like they don’t want to make the mistake they made with Zelda where they announce it and then have to delay it. They want to be like – here it is, here’s a trailer, here’s some gameplay, and here’s the release date and it’s not far off. To me, that sounds awesome. No complaints here. The people who think Nintendo have abandoned Metroid in favour of countless co-op spin-offs are kidding themselves. FF is a way of reintroducing us back into the universe, and I wouldn’t be surprised if it includes some key context for the next game. People need to stop bitching and be patient.

          1. If this is about zelda, you’ve had a link between worlds, ocarina 3d, wind waker hd, majoras mask 3d, and still are not satisfied?
            If this is about metroid… Sorry, but life’s not fair.

            1. Remakes and a very similar sequel aren’t the same thing as a new game. But we are getting Zelda Wii U soon, so the wait is almost over (well, in a year anyway).

          2. Yeah? And Kingdom Hearts fans have been patient for ten years for the next actual game, not spinoff. We’ve been getting spinoffs for almost 11 years. Although I love the spinoffs, the third one should’ve came a while ago. So you guys really don’t have anything to complain about if you guys are getting a spinoff after 5 years. Talk to me when they fill up a whole eleven years.

            1. 11 years now since the last 2D game, 13 since the last game in the canon. If I’m not mistaken, many of the spin-offs you’ve been getting actually play the same as the mainline series, so you can’t compare both cases at all. Besides that, have you people ever waited five years without a new game, not even a spin-of? And after a terrible game that tanked HARD and left the series on limbo, too.

              1. all these people talking about metroid as if they played the games + know everything about it gives me a headache.

                they don’t think about the fact that of the 30 years of metroid 13 years were with metroid in limbo

        1. I dig your delusion that that’s Nintendo’s strategy. Although I agree that the notion that Metroid spin-offs are going to be a regular thing is silly

          1. Metroid spin offs don’t have any future without a core Metroid Title. If we don’t see Metroid next E3, I’m Going Sony till they make a proper system with proper games.

        2. I’d rather know that one is in development and later gets delayed because then at least we know it’s in the works, unlike now where the only Metroid in development is Mega-Blocks Soccer: Space Edition.

          Remember, “a delayed game is eventually good- a bad game is bad forever.”

        3. That “be patient” attitude is the reason Nintendo has taken thier time with the games fans want. Sometimes you have to be impatient, and make your voice be heard.

          Being patient will not get you the games you want from Nintendo.

          The last Metroid game took years to eventually reach 1 million in sales on the original Wii. As far as Nintendo is concerned Metroid is not a money maker. They will never make another one without fan encouragement..

  2. sasori obinna: the puppet master

    i just got mario kart 8 with the two dlc packs…. the game is fun but the battle mode is garbage.

  3. I love that Nintendo plays by their own rules. Their the ONLY company (that produces hardware and software) that’s financially sound for the next 30+ years. They can experiment, make weird systems, and take their sweet time with new games. I don’t get why people still try to compare them to Sony and Microsoft when Nintendo is literally in a league of their own.

    1. The only reason they’re financially sound is because of the cash they earned in the 80’s and early 90’s, plus the short term gains from the Wii/DS era. Now, all they’re making petty profits. Are they safe? Yes. For now.

      1. but that was my point about why the wiiu should be replace, it’s just leading nintendo to rush out games so the system has some, smash bros still doesn’t have all it’s content, if the wiiu wasn’t hurting they could have releaseed smash this year and not only would we have tourney mode and stuff right out of the gate, but some of these dlc characters and costumes might have been in the game from the start as well

    2. I agree. Nintendo is in a league of their own. While Sony and MS cater to their audiences’ wants, producing powerful hardware for third party debs to make their dream game on, Nintendo is intent on making budget consoles with a game release rate of 1/month.

    3. They can take as long as they want to. I’m still catching up on my backlog as is.

      For example, I’m just now playing Bayonetta on my Wii U.

    4. Those 30+ years they have in them won’t mean shit once they ostracized all of their fans and nobody cares about them anymore.

    5. What good is Nintendo being financially sound if they’re not making the games we want?

      I never understood the “I love Nintendo because they have so much money!”

      Nintendo fansreally let Nintendo get away with some crazy shit. Nintendo know the fans have been dieing for a Galaxy 3. But they would rather make 3D World. They dont make the games fans want, they make the games they want to make.. And now it’s finally catching up with them..

      1. Nintendo Dark Jester Kooweek

        He’s about to say it sucks and It’s a disgrace because of the chibi style when he didn’t even get his hands on it, the same answer from a community full of spoilt kids

              1. Except millions are with you, thus why people even went to the extent of making the petition, and thus the reason this article even exists.

        1. You’re not old enough, nor tall enough to ride this discussion. Get off and go back to the kiddie rides. As much as you defend Federation Force, you’ll be much happier on the kiddie rides.

          Now leave the rollar-coaster discussion to the adults.

      2. Nintendo Tetrarch Quadramus-NX

        >>>It’s will not be considered a Metroid game by me unless they change the childish style first and most>>>

        1. I really think that the problem with the game is not the chibi style is the game itself.
          Let me explain my point. Metroid is about isolation, exploring new world and DISCOVER your path while you discover a new world. This monstruosity is about playing football (soccer) and teaming up with three buddies to take down huge monsters… I know that spins off are make to bring new gameplay to an old franchise but this is ripping out the franchise at all… You can play paper mario while you feel is a mario game, you can play hyrule warriors and it still have zelda vibes but metroid FF just feel like a washed off EVOLVE : (
          *im NOT a native english so i hope that i havent explained myself too bad that you cant comprehend what im saying

  4. Didn’t Reggie say a couple years ago Retro were busy making 2 games? I can’t understand when this Metriod for 3DS was in R&D why didn’t yall just make a traditional Samus then? That was stupid.

      1. As fitting as Retro is for development of Metroid (they became legends thanks to the Prime series), I doubt they have the resources and manpower to develop both of those at the same time, sadly.

      2. http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2015-06-17-next-proper-metroid-prime-would-likely-now-be-on-nx
        Tanabe: “I’m the producer of the Metroid Prime series, and [Metroid series co-creator] YOSHIO SAKAMOTO is the one in charge of Metroid itself.

        http://www.ign.com/articles/2015/06/17/e3-2015-what-metroid-primes-producer-wants-in-the-next-sequel
        Tanabe: “I said this at the beginning, but I’m not involved in the 2D Metroid games that [Yoshio] Sakamoto works on,”

        Stop fucking asking for Retro Studios to make a 2d Metroid it will never fucking happen okay, I said it a million times SAKAMOTO owns the Metroid series and 2d Metroid. You will get a 2d Metroid from Team Sakamoto and you will like it!

        P.S. Nintendo better get to work on Metroid Fusion’s sequel soon before I drop them.

        1. Sakamoto doesn’t want to involve himself with the series after Other M, he actually said he is taking a break to focus on smaller games like WarioWare or Rhythm Heaven. It’s either a 2D Metroid by someone else or nothing at all.

          1. Maybe you should re-read what he said , he said that he is currently looking into classic games like Metroid but want to build a new fanbase through Tomodachi and Rhythm Heaven before making one. his Metroid team that make the Tomodachi games have grown since then. Also why do you still have that Zero Mission avatar b/c you clearly are not a 2d fan if you don’t want a 2d Metroid, what part of Sakamoto owns 2d Metroid do you not understand NO STUDIO CAN MAKE A 2D METROID IF THEY DO THEY WILL BE SUED UNLESS THEY GET CONFIRMATION FROM SAKAMOTO IF HE SAYS NO THEN NO!

            1. If he said so, which I doubt very much, then it makes Sakamoto all the more retarded. Those games don’t share a significant audience with Metroid, period.
              And I’m a huge fan of the 2D games and Nintendo SPD, Iand that’s precisely why I don’t want Sakamoto anywhere near the franchise. His vision is totally opposite to what it was two decades ago. Let another studio have a go with the games before he shoves them deeper into the pile of shit that is his vision about where should the franchise go.

              1. Well then you will either have to deal with it or move on to another franchise b/c just like 343 owns Halo, Sakamoto owns Metroid. Plus I will ask you a question what else has Sakamoto and his team made terrible since other m I can’t think of one but didn’t Team Ninja give us that piece of shit called Ninja Gaiden 3?

                1. Fusion being more narrative-driven and linear? So, 2 games out of 2 since Yokoi died. Doesn’t that tell you anything?
                  And if you’re talking about his other franchises, Game&Wario was pretty fucking bad. And I don’t know if he’s in charge of this one, but if he is, where the fuck is Wario Land 5?
                  Gaiden 3? The game that suffered from a clusterfuck dev cycle and that they managed to improve a lot in following versions?

                  1. 1 Sakamoto team doesn’t do Wario Land games anymore, another studio in Nintendo does. 2 Metroid Fusion got some backlash in 2002 but seems to be heavily liked now. 3. Without Itagaki Team Ninja were a pile of C tier shit they thought it was a great idea to add QTEs to a game while adding a shit story with everything else. The rerelease of Ninja Gaiden 3 was still shit they just tried to add everything from NG2 to make it better. It didn’t help that in comparison to NG Black and NG 2 it was still a shit stain on the market, now look who’s defending bitch.

                    1. What are you smoking? It got some backlash back then, yes, but, if anything, people hate it even more now because they associate it with Other M and blame it for ruining the series.

                      “they thought it was a great idea to add QTEs to a game while adding a shit story with everything else”
                      You’re talking about Other M here, right?

                      All I’m saying is that at least Team Ninja listens to the criticism they get, hence why Razor’s Edge exists. Sakamoto, on the other hand, just tries to put his shit on the plate through different means: first with Fusion, then with Other M, and let’s see if the next 2D game doesn’t suffer from the same mistakes.

              2. One more thing Metroid Other M wasn’t Sakamoto’s vision it was an experiment to see if this new gameplay style was the right direction to take the Main series. After the backlash Sakamoto believes the best direction is to return to the 2d Metroid style game. Also it is very insulting for anyone to call the creator of a game or members of a game studio who work there blood, sweat, and tears on a game for years a retard, you insecure bitch. I think the only retard here is you; you are a personification of the Prime faggots that plague the Metroid community. All of you enjoy having Retro’s dicks ramming your asses so hard not realizing just how little control Retro has over the franchise. Tanabe gives orders Retro barks. Since you hate Sakamoto so much how about you move on to another franchise b/c your wish will never come true, since Sakamoto is pretty high up there at Nintendo.

                1. Fusion and Other M are similar titles. That’s two instances of his vision devaluating the final product and enough to establish a trend.

                  And come on, give me a break. You make a shit game, people are going to call it shit. This is not done out of their good will: they expect profit from their work and we, as consumers, demand our standards of quality to be met. If they can’t do that, tough shit, we’re not buying. And I respect SPD a lot, I think they’re one of Nintendo’s best teams, and they’re criminally wasted. That doesn’t mean I respect Sakamoto, even more so when it has become painfully obvious that the man has no idea about how game design or writing work.

                  ” Since you hate Sakamoto so much how about you move on to another franchise b/c your wish will never come true, since Sakamoto is pretty high up there at Nintendo”
                  Good one, mate. See you at the Prime 4 announcement.

                  1. Ridley 4 Smash DLC!

                    I think me & you can agree that Sakamoto needs to be either removed from the Metroid franchise permanently or have his control over the franchise diminished greatly. If he’s going to ignore fan criticisms of the real problems with Other M & think the problem with it was the 2.5D aspect instead of the story most of the fanbase hated, he seriously needs to go.

                    1. Ridley 4 Smash DLC!

                      I think 2.5D is the best evolution of Metroid. If he won’t let it evolve to that, Metroid would be better off as a First Person Adventure Shooter even though I would prefer third person.

                2. Ridley 4 Smash DLC!

                  So Sakamoto thought the main thing people hated about the game was the 2.5d aspect of the game? Wow. He clearly didn’t read anything the fans actually hated about the game. Yep. Sakamoto’s an idiot.

                  1. No dumbass he knew we all hated the story and shit gameplay so he wants to go back to making a 2.5D Metroid game weren’t you comprehending anything Primefag, this is called fan feedback even though Primefags took it too far. When the game launched I said it was terrible and that they should go back to Metroid’s roots, but Primefags had a mental meltdown over a virtual characters personality and that they hate Sakamoto even though the only Metroid games they played were the that Prime shit; they hate that Retro wasn’t making a Metroid Prime game and had a bitch fit about it b/c only Retro can make a good Metroid game when they aren’t even the creators of the series. I just hope that this time Sakamoto doesn’t forget the fucking color of the Gravity Suit the next time he makes a Metroid game. Also this one is for Marce2240, 1. I hate the Prime series in general and I expect to see Metroid Dread a lot sooner. I can care less if we ever get another Prime game as long as I get Metroid Dread I really don’t give a shit. You will see me less on forums like these b/c I finally got what I wanted. 2. What he hell are you smoking? Maybe you really need to re-read many gaming forums, b/c the second you call Fusion a piece of shit they will tear you apart. I believe it or not wasn’t a fan of Fusion or Zero Mission but since no one else will make a 2d Metroid b/c of Team Sakamoto I accepted the fact that we will get a Metroid from him. 3. Mother fucker you know I was talking about Ninja Gaiden 3 when I brought up QTE stop defending a c tier studio who can barely even make a good Dead or Alive game anymore. It really doesn’t matter if you don’t respect Sakamoto, I am fine with that, but you don’t insult someone who worked hard on something by calling them a retard b/c you didn’t like their work. If you created a project you spent countless days on and I shit on it and called you a retard and threw a rock at your face while spitting on your work would you be fine with that b/c if you are I’ll do it?

        1. Have fun with the game! Although I’m 100% sure that it’s gonna spoil the plot twist of Arkham City right from the get-go lol

          1. I’m really tempted to jump into Arkham Knight. But I also have the other three Arkham games and I think it would be a better idea to get those out of the way first.

            1. I haven’t played any of them but my room ate has, and I know there is a story connecting so definitely play them in order I would say.

        1. I'm a Boss Ass Bitch

          I didn’t fucking ask you. Your to stuck up nintendo ass to know what’s going in the “sonyan” world.

If you were a real alien you be the most hypocritical bitch ever. It would seem to admire how the human race evolved. Maybe the pathetic race you fell from was nothing but a bunch of broke down bitches. So you hate on how we can have pleasure and you can’t. Sucks to be fucking you.

                    The robot in the picture is lucky, though, because the woman is hot. That or he’s just her extremely expensive sex toy. lol

              2. I didn’t really buy it. Technically, I got it for free after trading in my Wii U and all its games. Lol.

                  1. I also started building my PC today. I put everything together. All that’s left to figure out is why I can’t see anything on my screen. XD

                      1. Hahaha. Well, I do plan on mainly using my PC for third party. But there’s still some PS4 games I haven’t gotten around to yet.

                        1. Nintendo Tetrarch Quadramus-NX

                          >>>I see, well do tell me which games you get for the PC, maybe we can play someday>>>

                          1. PrayStation RidgeRace

                            Ps4 is most powerful thing, Ps4 won the war, PC do not compare Ps4. Shenmue3,SF5,DyingLight exclusives only on Ps4. Its PlayStation, greatness awaits, join now!

                    1. Make sure everything is seated properly, a lot of the time people don’t push their ram or video cards in enough. And check that you have connected all the necessary cables to power the card.

                      It should be that easy, if it still doesn’t display the boot screen no matter what you do… It could have been DOA, or just failed on the first start.

                      You made certain you also got a power supply with enough wattage to run everything you bought, right?

                      1. Yeah, I know. I made sure that I followed directions. But there’s just a weird problem going on. When I plug the 8 pin CPU connector to motherboard, it will come on but then turn off. Then it’ll come back on then turn off again. And keep repeating. But when I remove it and turn it on, it stays on. The graphics card comes on, fans start spinning, and I can hear a beep. But nothing shows on screen? I’m like WTF? Lol.

            2. If you don’t own any other system than a Wii U, then yeah. If you have a PC or Xbox One, you probably won’t need it though.

              1. I'm a Boss Ass Bitch

                I only own a wii u right now. Fuck the Xbox one. The ps4 seems pretty decent as a secondary system. I’m just wondering does it has good exclusives.

                1. It does. There are some good ones like The Last of Us, Infamous Second Son, and Bloodborne. Some of the major exclusives like Uncharted 4 and that new Horizon game are next year though. In terms of third party, it’s really good. The Witcher 3 came out last month and now Batman Arkham Knight came out today. And of course, there’s the good games that have already been out like Dying Light, Shadow of Mordor, GTA V, etc.

                  1. I'm a Boss Ass Bitch

                    Sound fucking great and do you have to pay for online services? Or is it free like the wii u?

                    1. You have to pay for PS Plus. The only way you can play this generation’s multiplats with free online is PC. Lol.

                      1. I'm a Boss Ass Bitch

                        See that is what makes not won’t buy one. Your already paying for fucking wifi. Why should I have to pay to use something I already have. That’s the only downside I have but other than that it sounds like a pretty decent system.

                        1. PrayStation RidgeRace

                          Its greatest thing ever, join now, greatness awaits. We pay PsPlus because its PlayStation, it won the war. Shenmue3,SF5 and DyingLight, exclusives that nowhere else is! What you wait, go and buy PS4 and join the choir!

                        2. PS+ is awesome, tons of deals on games, and lots of games given to you for free for having it. So with all the money you save from it, eventually it pays for itself within the year. But I’ve enjoyed PS+ before it was needed for online, so I’d have it either way, even if the PS4 had free online.

                          There are also some fun free to play games on PS4 that don’t require a PS+ sub to play online. They aren’t the typical crappy type of free to play games, either. Not that I’d recommend buying a PS4 for the free to play games it has, just saying.

                          1. I'm a Boss Ass Bitch

                            Nice! Let it to Michelle to make you change your fucking mind. I didn’t know you got deals as well. I usually buy all of make games digitally, so that’s an A++ in my book.

                          2. PrayStation RidgeRace

                            Yeah Ps4 PsPlus stuff is so awesome! I pay PsPlus everytime, its hard to play games without it! Ps4 won the war, Greatness awaits! Shenmue3 only on playstation”

            3. Yes it is a good system with solid games for it it’s the way to go for this generation. I love Nintendo dearly im a long term fan but they have lost quite a bit of respect from me since that piss poor E3 show. So I’m only using my Wiiu for Smash bros, till the NX I will be playing my Ps4 with the Witcher 3, FF7 remake No mans sky metal gear solid and KH3.

        2. “We also know that the best way to launch a game like that is to surprise and delight them, to give them a launch date, in an environment like this let them play it vs. what other companies do which is to announce a project that you may not see for five, six years. It’s just not the way we do things.”

          Hmm… Zelda? Mario Maker? Yoshi’s Wooly World? to name a few on the Wii U alone…

          1. All of those games had huge overhauls since we’ve seen them. You can’t make a metroid game, and fundementally change it.

            1. All I’m saying is Nintendo is known for announcing projects and sitting on them for years before they launch… Reggie is insinuating they release games shortly after announcing them. It’s just not true with their blockbusters.

            1. Yeah but seems like this is a mindset that they just put into play this year to try and deflect some of the heat away from their flat e3. Nintendo, just like other companies, has announced games way ahead of release but reggie is acting like that isn’t the case here.

        3. Strange, because in E3 2012, they announced they were making Smash bros for 3ds and Wii u, and didn’t even have a trailer or gameplay to show.

        4. Hello fellow gamers this is trainerblack u may remember me from being a optimistic fanboy aswell being on the Nintendo defense team, since 2012 had many great years. Met alot of great gamer, on different consoles, went to gamestop events, tournaments ect, like any other true gamer, But unfortunitly. I will have to make my resenetion. From gaming as a whole. So i sold my ps4 & ps3 & 3DS Plus games im only down to my wii u & im riding off with that like bonnie & clyde.

          i Know majorty of you Don’t know me. But just wanted to let ya Know i understand all ya frustration. & hopefully next gen will be better on my nintendo gaming kins. i’m Sorry to turn my back on gaming, but from my point a view gaming turn there back on us when they strayed away from being true!!

          So everyone take care of ya selfs don’t allow ya selfs to be played a fool im out signed trainerblack N-ID Reckless-fire psn account…

          no xlive account But they kick ass in there own right farewell

          After this comment was posted trainerblack was no scoop down in the call of duty R.I.P

          1. Hey buddy. I really want to play “X,” so after that, I’m right behind you!

            Got some other things I want to pursue, and gaming has become like baseball cards in the US, a huge joke after the big strikes.

            I’ll keep my N3DS, and my WiiU, but I’m really about done. So glad I skipped splatoon. $60 I’m glad I saved.

            Right Behind ya TrainerBlack! ;D

            1. PrayStation RidgeRace

              Doncha leave gaming because Nintendo fell short, boy! Join PlayStation, Greatness awaits, SF5, Shenmue3, Dying Light exclusives no where else to find! Join now, dont wait! PlayStation won the war!

          2. Totally respect your decision, I’m not too far behind you and you didn’t turn your back, they turned theirs as you said.

        5. Fans never wanted prime they didn’t want a first-person Metroid game and then when I came out finally everyone loved it so we ended up getting three of them and a DS game with online play ever since then I always said that I don’t want another Metroid prime game unless it has online play I’m getting my wish haha.

          After that the fans wanted a 2d game they got it and absolutely hated it lol

          Now people are trying to get the game to not be released that is ridiculous some of you people are fucking crazy

          1. Nintendo Dark Jester Kooweek

            Just leave this fanbase of spoiled kids to their bullshit. It’s to think they want no new Metroid at all.

            And honestly, if no petition can bring us Mother 3, none will cancel a newly announced game.

            1. Nintendo is the spoiled kids.
              Just wanting and expecting consumers to buy up and except whatever they say and do.

              Well, the spoiled kids are about to have their allowance cut. Hope they saved enough money to survive now that those of us that have been pumping hundreds of dollars into their banks year after year are leaving, and hope the kids they are selling to have parents willing to open their wallets!

              1. It’s funny how they all call us spoiled kids when most of us leaving are the actual adults and the kids are just young gits who ain’t been around long enough to know what nintendo is all about.

          1. Not really. After the MetroidLand reveal, Nintendo said IF they started a Metroid, it would take years and likely be on the next system.

            Sorry bro, but they haven’t put any thought into a real metroid game, and if they have, it’s only been for a week or two?

            Nintendo has been slipping up. We know exactly what’s going on. Nothing. Just shalliw, lightweight, mobile-friendly console and 3DS games that they can port to mobile phone platforms as soon as they are ready.

            It’s all gone to shit folks. :(

        7. “I am aware, I just don’t give a damn!”
          -Reggie, Mahbodys

          I wasn’t one of the people flipping over this after it was announced, but i respect the people who were, this is such a slap in the face from nintendo
          “here’s our most mature and atmospheric series, now let’s make a kiddies game out of it”
          seriously, the cientists are murdered on screen on Fusion, why the heck they want to make this into gay ( in the old sense of the word ) times monster hunting now?

          this and the zelda game feel like some ds prototypes they had lying around and just decided to released it to say they did something before the 3ds died, it has only 1 or 2 more years anyway

          1. It’s very ok!! Metroid will bring you itchniness of fun! You will love Metroid and be happy and mad or that but you will love it ok Cindy??

        9. i hope there is a Metroid prime FPS game coming for NX console. Just like the metroid prime, metroid prime 2 echoes and MP 3 corruption. I got them on my wii u. And thats my favorite METROID EVER.
          i hope they create a new trilogy and a great long story.

          1. There better be a fucking 2d Metroid Fusion sequel before they dare comeback to the Prime universe. Been waiting 13 years for Metroid Dread from team Sakamoto, it better not get drag out again by another fucking Prime game.

        10. I hate the Metroid series. They don’t have any appeal to me whatsoever. Not when I was a kid, and not now either. And the Metroid Prime series is even worse.

          1. Half of the stupid kids here haven’t had any exposure to the Metroid series except for with SSB and yet they all think they love the games.

        11. Nintendo is aware of what gamers want but continue to do nothing while letting us know they’re aware of it. News at 11.
          “Please understand”.

        12. Nintendo has showed off tons of games two, even three year in advance. Reggie is full of shit, honestly.

          Why cant he just be fucking honest. And say this; “We’re not showing off anymore Wii U games because we are about to launch the NX next year. And all of our development teams are wroking on NX software, not Wii U software.”

          THATS THE TRUTH.

        13. And yet you still insist on making that chibi garbage joke for. Metroid game. Remember the other Metroid project that got recently canned got “improper styling”? I bet that game’s style is tons better and closely related to Metroid than that Federation Chibi Force piece of shit.

        14. “what other companies do which is to announce a project that you may not see for five, six years. It’s just not the way we do things. “—-anyone remember a game by the name of Twilight Princess?

            1. Reggie was probably referring to something like The Last Guardian, but that’s a rare exception these days. Most games that are shown are usually a year to 2 years out, so he’s still bullshitting for another stupid reason why they won’t announce more things.

              Regardless, the 2004 E3 where Nintendo showed the Twilight Princess trailer is arguably the best moment in E3 history – back when Nintendo did E3 right.

        15. “Oh we know!! We don’t give a rip, but we know! Does this make you feel better? We still are aware that you want a Metroid game! we know! And we still don’t care!”

        16. Ridley 4 Smash DLC!

          I think if we look beyond the bullshit lie, we can see that what Reggie is really saying is “We don’t think Metroid is worth telling everyone a game about 2-4 years in advance. It is not a game that does well in Japan so Nintendo just doesn’t care about it as much as they do other franchises. Please understand.”

        17. Nintendo has lost it way. Why don’t you merge with ps4 or Xbox one and get Metroid out your company is going to fail. No Metroid on a major console Wii U just shameful
