Topic: A metroid game for Wii U should look like this

Please Nintendo

That would be cool

Looks kinda blurry for a Wii U game

Instead Nintendo and Next Level Games are focusing on some small and most probably crappy Metroid game for the Nintendo 3DS.

Looks fun to me

Also looks like a GCN game.

Seriously, Wii U can do better than that lol

A blurry version of Metroid Prime?

Metroid on the wii u should look like a copyrighted photoshop atempt?

And where can I get those Beta-WiiU-Gamepads without control sticks?

Seriously: The idea to get the visors at the second screen is very nice but I don't know if that is playable.

So it does look like a WiiU game then

Same.

I tried to unblurr it

Graphical issues aside this is exactly the kind of game the Wii U and Metroid fans deserved and it's a travesty that it's not happening.

Next Level Games hasn't failed so far.

Why not a 2.5D Super Metroid-style game like this fan made project?

So far. That doesn't mean they can't. And this game definitely looks like it's going to fail.

A game like that would be better on 3DS. Wii U Metroid should be large scale, open ended, and impressive, so Prime style is more befitting the console experience. Plus the Gamepad lends itself very well to Prime's mechanics, as the screenshot is trying to convey.

Interesting concept, although I don't think visor/beam switching would work very well on the gamepad. Touching the gamepad to navigate through those while also having to dodge and keep your lock-on on enemies seems like it may be a bit too much going on at once.

I think console Primes may return someday, though. Who knows, maybe Federation Force will do really well and show Nintendo that the market is open to more Metroid.

It could work if they map the lock on to ZL. Then you can use one hand to dodge and lock on and the other to use the touch screen. Then they could have a control option to swap the Control Sticks and ZL/ZR for left handed people (use your right hand to move around the right Control Stick to dodge and hold ZR to lock on, and use your left hand on the touch screen).

Or it'll show Nintendo that the market is open to more Federation Force and not Metroid Prime 4.

So the Star Fox Zero concept of asymmetric aiming (that people are whinging about) with the same UI, graphics and gameplay of the 3 Prime games (A.K.A 'rehashing' that people with a Kyurem avatar are complaining about constantly) is the Metroid game we deserve and is a travesty that it isn't happening? That there is hypocrisy. Not that anyone takes these people seriously anyway.
