Not impossible
just highly unlikely
Yeah, I'm not getting it either. Just because it says Metroid on it doesn't mean anything, and the game looks dull as shit branding aside.

I mean, at least Pinball had the benefit of being a solid pinball game.
red chamber dream
it could be a fun game, but mission based multiplayer doesn't interest me, and i don't want nintendo to think this is the kind of metroid game i want lol

i'm sure they're working on a "real" metroid game for nx though
red chamber dream
anyway next time i hear a tease for a new metroid prime game, i'm going to assume it's a shitty spinoff minigame because there's now more shitty spinoff minigames named "metroid prime" than real metroid games haha
One shall stand, one shall ball.
The ridiculous overreaction to the game has given me all the entertainment I could ever hope for out of a game, and it was free!

Quote from somebody on NeoGAF:
I was literally shaking with anger during that conference. Tears formed in my eyes and my fists were clenched. "Announce something," I shrieked at my computer. My mom knocked on my bedroom door and had to ask if I was ok. Then, they started showing me a bunch of losers playing instruments dressed as Mario and I just turned it off. It was actually unbelievable.

Now, I'm 31 years old and this was, without a doubt, the worst conference I've ever seen in my life. It's clear that Nintendo is not just done with the Wii U but done with the company. There is no recovering from a conference that bad. They'll talk about the NX at next E3, but people will ignore it after remembering Blast Balls.

I loved this company and put my heart and soul into dedicating my gaming life to them. But now, I have nothing. I'm an empty shell.

tbob eh, to some extent that's true, but i think nintendo has a huge branding problem lol

like i said, when nintendo teases "new metroid prime", their audience has something completely different in mind compared to what nintendo thinks "metroid prime" means
red chamber dream
maybe this release will finally end that false expectation though
Not impossible
just highly unlikely
Nintendo seemed more disconnected than usual this year. I mean if Metroid was the only cock tease that would be one thing, but they also did it with Animal Crossing and (somewhat) Paper Mario. Half their direct felt like an elaborate troll attempt.
red chamber dream
zelda too

it's obvious why though right? they're winding down wii u development (and probably 3ds too) and moving everything to nx now
red chamber dream
so until the nx is released nintendo's lineup is going to be shit, and people will just have to deal with it lol
red chamber dream
now they're just clearing the pipeline and shitting out whatever they can to make money in the meantime
Not impossible

Yeah, that's pretty clear. It's not exactly the best way to gain fan confidence though, which they really REALLY need for nx.

They do but also it's videogames so who really cares? If it looks fun buy it! If it doesn't don't! Just like literally every other product! People going off on a game they don't like the concept of like the company ran over their cat is the funniest shit.

true, but i think with nx their goal is going to be to get the people back who already left nintendo years ago

those of us with a wii u are going to buy the nx no matter what right?

tbob you could say that about anything, sometimes it's fun to talk about stuff >_>
Not impossible

tbob hates fun
One shall stand, one shall ball.
What the deal with this NX thing anyway? Was Wii U so bad for them they had to rush out another console already? Seems like a super short turn around.

Talking's cool and good! It's the silly fan reaction's I'm laughing at.

Also accurate. I am incapable of enjoying all things.

precisely. wii u sales are pitiful, it's been a massive failure

nintendo's just trying to cut their losses without pissing off their customers too much
One shall stand, one shall ball.
I don't know asking them to fork over another four hundred dollars or whatever so soon after Wii U might piss some people off.

But hey Nintendo, a hot tip just for you, totally free!: Make a not stupid controller and also have games somewhere close to launch day this time!
