@minotaurgamer What are you talking about?? Sakamoto was one of the original designers of Metroid and the creative force on all 2D metroid games (except 2). Other M was terrible, but that doesn't mean we should rewrite history and pretend that Metroid's success came from Yokoi and not Sakamoto.

I thought there was this unwritten rule that if you wanted to create a spiritual successor you had to be involved in the original game? These were just a couple of random dudes who never had any involvement in the F-Zero series.

@GMB-001 makes sense, I know it's been quoted to death but Hideki Kamiya said it best: "[Inafune] is a businessman, not a creator."

People should support real developers that have an artistic vision like Yu Suzuki instead, because his KS seems to have stalled.

When will those Wind Waker comparisons ever stop?? This new Metroid is not just a change in art style.

"I guess I wouldn't be doing my job if I didn't express some slight disappointment with that..."

Yeah, this line kinda rubbed me the wrong way. This "journalist" would actually be doing his job if he wasn't editorializing like this and just conduct a proper interview.

Can you really refer to it as 'a cancelled F-Zero title for Wii U' if it never got past the proposal stage?

I doubt that it will be the 60Hz US version since this is a pretty dialogue heavy game. If this is only available in English, miiverse will probably go crazy.

I just hope players who disable motion controls won't be at a disadvantage. I had to experience that while playing Sin & Punishment...you won't get far without motion controls in that game.

I'd love a new F-Zero as much as the next guy, but is Criterion really a good developer? I've played a few of the PS2 Burnouts and they got boring pretty quickly.

Plus, I've said it before: A new F-Zero that can't make use of analog triggers would be a step backwards from the awesome GX. Maybe the Wii U just isn't the right console for it?

Neither are gyro controls, but that didn't stop you.

"Entitled fury"?
....God forbid someone is passionate about a gaming franchise on a gaming website.
This whole outrage may seem toxic on the surface, but I think this is ultimately healthy for Nintendo because they need a wake up call real bad.

Man, everybody knows Nintendo is a little out of touch, but after this E3 you have to ask yourself what planet are they living on...
They better give us confirmation of a real Metroid game in development as soon as possible.

I hope Microsoft will allow Rare titles on Nintendo consoles again one day.There's even a slight chance that may happen since Microsoft's gaming division has never been profitable for them from what I've read.

Also, trolls who say that B&K and the DKC trilogy are the only worthwhile Rare games should be tarred and feathered, smh...

I actually like the idea of a female protagonist in Zelda, but they should make a totally new character for that. This genderswapping is kinda creepy imo...

There's the confirmation! Unreal Engine 4 games CAN run on the Wii U. It just takes some determined developers who are willing to put in the effort.

Oh man, I can't wait for this!! Itagaki is one of the few developers who always delivers

@hiptanaka Are you sure about that? I've seen a couple of posters now say that they have to rebuild the assets in a different engine for the game to run on the Wii U. From what I've read Unreal Engine 4 games can run on the Wii U even though Epic doesn't offer support for it...and even Armature said the port would still be in Unreal Engine 4.

I wish nintendolife made an article about the Wii U and Unreal Engine 4 to clear up any misconceptions because there seems to be a lot of confusion about it.

@Quorthon They're rebuilding the assets for Unreal Engine 3 so it runs on the Wii U?? Where have you heard that, or did you just make that up?
I'm totally clueless when it comes to tech stuff like this, but from what I've read you can make Unreal Engine 4 games run on the Wii U, it just takes more effort for developers.

I hope a new F-Zero will be a launch game for the NX. Miyamoto already said that a different kind of controller than the Gamepad would be needed for an F-Zero game so there's no hope for a Wii U version.
Nintendo really messed up big time by not including analog triggers...

@Spacey It's true, though. There's no reason to play the original Star Fox instead of Star Fox 64...well, maybe the music is better in the first one.

That's the German nanny state for you, big government and bureaucracy run amuck.
It's sad to see German commenters here being mad at these small developers instead of our government...that's one of the many reason why USK, Gema, BPjM, GEZ will never go away.

yeah this article should be updated...at this point it's clear that a Wii U port will be one of the next stretch goals

The game world is built on Unreal Engine 4 which the Wii U doesn't support. I blame Nintendo and their weak hardware.

Hopefully it comes to NX though, if it's a home console that is...

The overwhelming support for this character baffles me...he's just so boring and generic-looking.

@Grimlock_King I agree...I don't wanna sound like a Hollywood plastic surgeon, but that bat's nose is just too big. I wish they would make it smaller.

@Einherjar Seriously? That's not true 16:9 widescreen, you're just stretching the picture. Nintendo hasn't done a good job with DK64.
Plus, we got it as 50 Hz in Europe again...ppl need to stop finding excuses.

Please don't let it be true!!
The remakes of Twilight Princess & Skyward Swords need to come to Wii U or NX in beautiful 1080p and widescreen.

Only if the next DLC is decent Battle mode with real arenas. C'mon Nintendo!
