A nice gesture. Not wery believable, but nice idea.
I think a lot of people will agree, that this was an extremely disappointing event for Nintendo.
The build up and hype for something Metroid related has been killed and it feels like a let down.
There was just nothing apart from more smash.
Even Microsoft had more to say.
I didn’t saw this event but I can only agree about too much hype for Metroid Prime 4. Even I was hyped for Metroid Prime 4.
And I’m knackered.
I shan’t be getting or staying up at stupid ‘o’clock again for this next year.
This over saturation of Smash needs to stop. Even I, a person who loves playing Smash am tired of this. Where is a new 2D Zelda? Where is Prime Trilogy HD? Where is a new Prime 4 Trailer?
DUDE! Tone it down, the fans will kill you!
Don’t worry. I am not the type of person who likes making internet fights.
Nintendo is going to push their system seller as hard as they can for the holidays. They’ve been really worried about keeping simple, concise messages with their PR this generation and right now that message is Smash Bros for Christmas. And while most don’t want to hear it, Metroid probably isn’t ready to be shown yet.
Now I played X-Men Legends and Ultimate Alliance games a ton, so finding out that UA was back and a Switch exclusive being developed by Team Ninja was pretty awesome.
@frogopus I get what you mean about advertising Smash everywhere posible but, would it kill them to at least reveal a 2D Zelda? It has been almost 5 years since A Link Between Worlds. In almost 5 years they can’t have a new/remake 2D Zelda?
Are they in 2019? Nintendo likes to focus on current products, you should know about it by now.
@Agato Then why Nintendo revealed Prime 4? They already had revealed Samus Returns in E3 2017 so it wasn’t necesary to reveal Prime 4 if it was so early in development.
I disagree with everything you had to say here. This wasn’t a Nintendo event, Metroid wasn’t obliged to make an appearance and the few Nintendo announcements that we did get were pretty hype for most spectators. This comment section is the twilight zone.
That’s your own fault for setting expectations too high.
I didn’t expect Metroid Prime 4 to be revealed. Hoped for it, but it is what it is. They probably will reveal it before the end of the year, or early next year.
Reggie was aborable in his Ridley t-shirt under the suit!
Really surprised like everyone with the lack of Metroid Prime Trilogy/4 info. Feels like missed opportunity if a remaster is on a table. I was pulling for a Metroid Prime 4 reveal with a Fall 2019 release(not unlike Smash this year and Odyssey the year before).
