Dude because those are two most wanted Nintendo-owned newcomers BY FAR!!!
I don't think I would consider Retro's new game being another Metroid unavoidable. I mean after Prime 3 which was quite criticized compared to its predecessors, how would another Metroid by Retro be something that "everyone wants" at this point? I doubt they'll top the first Prime anyway. Its sequels sure didn't.
Others may not feel that way though because of the tikis. lol
Well, Retro's big breakthrough was the first Prime. I really don't know what other kind of game people would really want Retro to make other than Metroid. I'd personally love if they did what they did with DKCR, and what Nintendo has been doing with Mario and Kirby lately, and made a Metroid 3D sidescroller, to finally go back to the roots.
Someone is going to have to console Chrono as he's curled up in the fetal position then...
Other M left such a terrible taste in some peoples' mouths a lot of them have now overlooked almost all the flaws from the Prime games they might've once complained about.
While I obviously like the Rare-made DK games the most, I'd definitely say DKCR was better than any other DK game made since Rare left, even with the tikis. Personally I have confidence Retro can bring a new breath of life into most Nintendo series, even Zelda.
Star Fox?
Perhaps, or those who didn't like both games just felt that Other M was so bad that it made Prime 3 look good. Either way Prime 3's pretty criticized, even though it's not on Other M levels, and I knew some would bring up Other M after what I said.Other M left such a terrible taste in some peoples' mouths a lot of them have now overlooked almost all the flaws from the Prime games they might've once complained about.
Probably, though with how tired most became of the whole Phazon thing after Prime 3, I question how well a Prime 4 would actually do (Retro said in an interview or something one time that if the Prime Trilogy on Wii had sold well enough, they would bring back Dark Samus/Phazon and continue the storyline of where they left off).
Fair enough, and with any luck, if Retro's still involved with DK in the future, perhaps they'll realize that bringing back the Kremlings would be essential for another big-seller DK title. I mean they didn't exclude Metroid's classic enemies the Space Pirates in the Prime games, so yeah.
I personally really don't want another first person Metroid game, I think Prime 1 was excellent as I stated earlier, but Metroid is and should always first and foremost be a sidescroller imo, it's like making Mega Man a first person shooter, that wouldn't be that cool either. 2D would be most prefered, but nearly nothing is 2D anymore, it kind of died with the announcement of Pokémon X & Y sadly. Zero Mission was 8 years ago now, 8 years since we've had a traditional Metroid game, that's the same wait that there was between Super Metroid and Metroid Prime/Fusion. Now would be an excellent time to bring Metroid back to its roots, even more so considering everyone else is bringing their franchises back to the roots. I would prefer it to be on console, but 3DS would work too, and itwould just give me even more of a reason to get it other than the upcoming Smash Bros and Pokémon games.Other M left such a terrible taste in some peoples' mouths a lot of them have now overlooked almost all the flaws from the Prime games they might've once complained about.
Plus people always want moar and moar. They're insatiable and impossible to please. I can understand why they want more Prime though, I'd say a Prime 4 would still turn out better than other studio's attempts at a 3D Metroid. Personally I'd rather have a return to the 2Ds (on 3DS preferably), it's been much too long since we got one.
In any case, I also doubt Retro's game is Metroid. My guess is Starfox. I'd be content with either, but I kinda miss SF.
Prime 2 to me had a really cool theme with the light and dark world. However, I don't think a reoccuring main villain like Dark Samus fits in a Metroid game, which I by the way didn't fancy too much in Fusion either. The whole "fighting a dark version of yourself" has been done to death, especially in Nintendo games too, so it didn't really add anything special to me. The ammo thing was pretty annoying indeed. The game had its strong and weak points, its strongest points probably being the incredible boss battles, Quadraxis being the big standout. It's still miles behind Prime 1 though, but a bit ahead of Prime 3, mostly because of all the annoying interactions with other characters in Prime 3 and the flying between planets.
All true, but the Metroid Prime name and sub-series still has enough fans that if Retro's project does turn out to be Prime 4, "a game that everyone wants us to make" would still probably apply. It's not like if they turned out to be working of Wave Race or StarTropics or something, which really... very few people want them to do over Metroid or Starfox. Even though I think it's between Metroid and Starfox, I'd say those two, plus Zelda, DK, and F-Zero would all count as "a game that everyone wants us to make".
Yeah, why the Kremling were excluded is still a puzzle, but really I think the best thing for future chances of them re-appearing is if K. Rool gets included in Smash.
No, I agree, I was just speaking hypothetically. Miyamoto did say he wouldn't mind working with Retro on Zelda though...
I wouldn't really be upset if we got another first-person Metroid, but I agree I'd much rather have another 2D Metroid.
WELL WE'LL NEVER KNOW NOW, WILL WE CAPCOM?!
I disagree. I suppose you mean sprite-based, which, in that case I agree, but since the success of NSMB and DKCR I can see Nintendo refocusing on 2D more and more. They already have with NSMB.
Sprite-wise, yeah, if we got a Metroid side-scrolling now, it'd likely be 3D graphics with a 2D perspective, which is what I guess I meant.
Yeah, when I say 2D I usually mean sprites. I usually refer to games like DKRC, NSMB and Kirby: Return to Dreamland as 3D Sidescrollers, or 2.5D.I disagree. I suppose you mean sprite-based, which, in that case I agree, but since the success of NSMB and DKCR I can see Nintendo refocusing on 2D more and more. They already have with NSMB.
I agree with the rest.
i think you accidentally posted in the wrong thread.Aint gonna lie though if the reveal trailer is something like
Little Mac
Palutuna
Krystal
Kirby (rep)/Takamaru/Layton
I would go MAHDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD!!!!!!!!!!!
Naa Naa i meant to post that here....
2 different companies should NOT both begin with R. It's confusing
Oooooooooh. So next week will be something of Ridley from Brawl?Last week's avatar was a reference to Ridley's first appearance in Smash Bros.(where he flew in the background to the Planet Zebes stage)
I really appreciate your passion and support but you do know when ever you do this it only makes te wait harder right?
I never really got all of the sexism allegations.
I think it was the high heels.
Then Bayonetta, Peach and Zelda must be sexist as well.
Mom thing wasn't that bad. We forgot about it after the first ten minutes.
yeah so does anybody think his wings should have a bit of wear on them, or damage? Or should they be clean and perfect?
This is all I have to say on the matter.
Adam didn't have a "hold on her," Samus was trying to repair their relationship after her poor social skills undid it when his brother died. She compares him to her father, so he's not just her ex-boss. If you rewatch the scenes with her and the full team, even in her distressed state in the game, she's clearly the most capable, possibly barring Anthony Higgs' single-shot Plasma Cannon.
