Posted March 2, 2011 That reminds me; GANEPARK32, please post that awesome 'comic' again of which you used a still as your avater: peace: It was you, wasn't it? Don't remember having any comic as my avatar. Perhaps you're thinking of D_Prodigy's avatar that had a picture of one of the people Iwata was interviewing with "I Did" or something underneath? ----------------------- I'm not getting my hopes up for anything big. The speech is about 25 years of gaming and two Nintendo franchises hit that mark this year, Zelda and Metroid. Given how Other M went down, I think Metroid will be in the dark for a couple of years until Nintendo realise Retro Studios really are the perfect studio to carry that series forward. So that leaves Zelda and with OoT and Skyward Sword coming this year (you'd hope anyway. It is Nintendo afterall so I wouldn't be surprised at another Skyward Sword delay), I'd at least expect some new footage of the latter game with a tentative release date of around Autumn. I expect that'll happen at least as I'm hoping Nintendo will have plenty to show off at E3 again and some will be new IPs (potentially Xenoblade, The Last Story and Pandora's Tower) so they'll want to give as much limelight to them as possible.

Posted March 2, 2011 Playing Shantae: Risky's Revenge on DSi W0are just clarified to me how Nintendo could make the perfect Metroid. It has to be fully 2D and made with sprites, it really does - they're just so nice to look at. I wouldn't even mind if it had to be 3DS Ware (rather than a retail product), I'm confident full 2D would be the best way. As much as I enjoyed Other M, I wouldn't really mind if Retro were put back onto console Metroids. Yes, I found Other M more fun than Prime, but I'd still rate it below the 2D ones. That way, we could have 1st-person perfection for those that love it, and 2D perfection for those of us who love that. Other M was a game I think most could enjoy, but was it good enough to be many people's favourite? I liked it, but couldn't really give it a 9 or 10/10. I just think console games in general take themselves too seriously, with all the cutscenes and all. About GDC... this was the first one I've watched live. Is it just me, or was Iwata a bit ominous when he was talking about "Industry Concerns"? I thought Nintendo were going to fold or something! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 2, 2011 Do you mean sales wise? Yeah, sales wise. Nintendo no doubt hoped for much better with Other M and it hasn't done what they'd expected. I do, personally, think that Retro Studios are the right developer for the franchise. Maybe people don't want more first person Metroid but you can't deny their quality in almost every aspect (apart from the dreadful multiplayer but we'll ignore that :wink:) and Retro clearly have an eye for making the games. I doubt we'll see them pick it up fully again but I do think that's where it should go. Even though I did really enjoy Other M, the Prime games are just on a completely different level.
