I was thinking that it would be great if Nintendo gave the Metroid franchise the All-Stars treatment like the did with Super Mario Bros on SNES and Wii.

They sort of Did the Prime Trilogy already on the Wii but the 2D games are what I am talking about. Zero Mission was an awesome remake of the original Metroid and it would be great if the often overlooked Metroid 2 got a serious remake as well. Updated graphics and a map would be cool. I know Fusion has released on Virtual console and Zero Mission is out in Japan and hopefully coming soon to NA. This is cool because GBA has sort of been inaccessible and forgotten since the DSi came out. The original GB Metroid 2 would be the big draw of a collection like this I think. I havent' played Metroid 2 since it came out and I remember it being pretty awesome for a GB game at the time.

Include some online leader boards for speed runs and stuff.

Anyone know if Other M is officially Metroid 5? I don't think it is because it takes place before Metroid 4 right? In Fusion Samus alludes to the events in Other M doesn't she?

If they did a good job on a Metroid All-stars game perhaps it could kickstart them or serve as a warm up for a true Metroid 5 game.

Or Nintendo could skip that idea and develop a new one.

I'd like a Metroid collection on the 3DS so I can finally play Super Metroid on the go,

Would rather see Super Metroid get that treatment but I'm okay with anything Metroid as long as it doesn't get in the way of new upcoming Metroid titles

As long as I still get Metroid Prime 4 on Wii U, sure.

Super Metroid already looks great. Fusion looks better than it did on an actual GBA when you play it on Wii U. The original Metroid has already been remade magnificently with Zero Mission.

Metroid 2 is the only game that would really need some effort for a remake. I think Metroid 2 could be remade in to an awesome game. From memory it has the greatest variety of Metroid that you battle with straight genocide as the goal.

Ah, who am I kidding this will never happen right.

Just because they won't do Prime 4 doesn't mean they can't do another 3D Metroid game.

Prime is a trilogy as far as it's narrative. That is complete. That doesn't mean we cant get another first person Metroid game ever.

I am more interested in 2D Metroid though. That is the main story and the origins of the series. I only finished Prime 3 on the Wii and it was awesome but I never finished Prime 1 or even played Prime 2.

They already made Metroid Zero Mission though. That's a great remake that stands well today.

I have nearly all the Metroid games in one form or another but I would prefer a Prime Trilogy in HD with a few online modes to a re-drawn version of the 2D games.

I only posted this to get my avatar as the forum's thumbnail.

It will be either Metroid Prime 4 or

Metroid Prime : subtitle

(They took X and added Xenoblade Chronicles to it when it is nothing to do with that).

When is the last time they didn't do a sequel ?

They blatantly said Metroid Prime was cool and important to Nintendo recently and Miyamoto himself said he preferred Prime to 2D Metroid because it is more different to other Nintendo games.

Whatever alternate universe in which Prime 4 is being developed is one I want to live in.

My SD Card with the game on it is just as physical as your cartridge with the game on it.
I love Nintendo, that's why I criticize them so harshly.

The last game, Other M, was not a sequel.

Metroid Prime Hunters was not a sequel.

Metoroid Prime Pinball was not a sequel.

Metroid Prime was not a sequel but a separate series that had 2 sequels.

Metroid Zero Mission was not a sequel but a remake.

There are 4 main Metroid games:

Metroid on NES remade as Zero Mission on GBA

Metroid 2 the return of Samus was a black and white 4 color game on the original Gameboy and a game pretty early in that handhelds life. I think it needs a remake/update.

Metroid 3 is Super Metroid on the SNES

Metroid 4 is Fusion on the GBA

These are sequential stories in the main advancing time line of the Metroid series. Other games are side stories that take place during this time line. I may be wrong but Prime trilogy takes place between Metroid 1 and Metroid 2. Other M takes place between Metroid 3 and Metroid 4. Hunters takes place between Prime 1 and Prime 2 I think.

No. No metroid all stars it would take way too many resources for a bunch of rehashes when they could make a new one for less than half of those resources.

I'm pretty sure you have no idea what you're talking about.

Don't worry, though, I forgive you.

When I clicked on the thread, I was expecting to see an idea of Metroid following in Zelda's footsteps with its own Warriors kind of game experience. I echo what a few others have said and would rather see a new Metroid game.

Metroid all-stars doesn't have the same ring to it though.
@blaisedinsd Other M was a sequel to Super Metroid.

They could come up with a different title for it.
