@-DEMISE- I mean, you are a nintendo fan I presume. you must have some things you want, right? like some preferences when thinking of what the next game could be like. if there's ever a next game. and it is YOU that will get money out of your wallet to give to nintendo in exchange of said game. but when the only thing advertizing this game (the only way to judge if its worth my money or not) is not convincing you at all, like federation force, you can't blame us. EVEN if its a side-game.
let's be honest here for a second. as a metroid game, federation force looks bad. AS A METROID GAME. if it tries so hard to be new or another genre, don't put a branding on it that resonate "exploring" "samus" and "chlostrophobia". your points are valid, but our felling of getting let down is valid too I think. so. calm yo bits.
@huxxny same thing here. I wont defend them this time. Yeah i get. They must protect their ip, but make something good come out of it. Being right doesn't make things right by default.
@BensonUii I dont know what to say. When someone is better than you at something, you just cry and kill his passion? I know there is legal issues there. But don't tell me the only option here is to let it die and go on like nothing happen. This is a masterpiece. I can't beleive they are not doing anything with it. But hey, can't wait on federation force I guess...
@PanurgeJr but at least they could have capitalize on it. Hire this guy or buy the game/concept. I see opportuniy in this. they just slapped metroid fans in the face. "we can't do a good metroid game?we will killed fan projects and not learn from them". you see how it can frustrate fans, even if I understand they could not let it live.
It may be right legally, but they have to admit they look bad as hell on this one. Can hardly give us something good in the metroid franchise, see one of the best 2d metroid game and killed it. Slow Clap.
I'm sorry but just for this, I'm not throwing 40 bucks on your Federation non sense if you shut a brillant game for not being able to do so yourself.
@Samurai_Goroh like you said. cool that the IP is now among the strongest of nintendo. but, to be honest, I always judge games on smart phone. and this one is not making any exceptions for the same reasons afordmentionned by @steel76
I kinda got the feeling it will never happen, but I'd love the SNES version on new nintendo 3DS virtual console. I'd pay the fudge out of it. really one of the best platformer ever made in video game history, imo.
@Gridatttack can't agree more with you. I really felt the game was a remake of the first. same tone, slightly better overall. but still an awesome game tho.
All I was talking about before E3 was how sure there would be a 2.5 metroid announced for the 3ds along with the revelation of an upcoming 1st person wii u metroid game. we even tought there would be like a special wii u edition in the form of a morph ball with lights and stuff. HOW WRONG can we be at that point. never, ever build up expectation out of nothing.
@Artwark I feel you man. WHY GAMBE BOY advance game on wii u. GAME BOY. 1 more time. GAME BOY. I have already 10 GBAs on my 3ds 'cause of ambassador and I see no problem there. WHY. JUST WHY.
I just feel like they are stupid OR I really am a first class dumb in marketing stuff.
I don't think showing a LITTLE BIT of what you have in store for the next year or so wouldn't have been good. It would have saved them some criticism. I just don't get why it is so bad to show what you have up your sleeve when give everyone else the impression you got nothing. it's not smart.
just a freakin' zelda Wii u 15 sec footage. or trailer. MAN HOW would it hurt them?
@TheRealThanos as for the price, I'm on your side on this. if we feel we got something off the chart, premium home console, good online network, etc, etc, I'm willing to pay. In fact, I just want nintendo to stop make wanna have a alternative gaming platform. If I could get everything I love about gaming (connectivity, awesome sale that goes beyond 10%, great graphics, integrated and FAST web surfing while playing, etc AKA STEAM) I,d buy it. But I know as of a business standpoint, I'm not the majority. so I get it.
like a bunch of other fellows, I don't think we are gonna see it in our homes next year but they will talk about it next 3e I'm sure. Now with this statement, it would make sense to think the next zelda is gonna come out on this one too. OR the next console will feature a retrocompatibility with wii u games.
but don't rush it nintendo. I must finish all the achivements in smash 4. so take your time.
@Parasky I agree with you. Before implanting something like early access architecture, they should begin to work on a solid online framework. right now, put aside miiverse and cross platform wallet, having a nintendo network ID isn't much. but I'm also pretty sure nintendo would handle Early access pretty well.
Like everyone else, if you happen to come across a 3ds version, better stick with this one. IMO, much better, funnier and on the go. the defenitive version of ocarina of time with a great master quest mode. don't waste your 64th copy of OOT on the wii u version which will give you nothing more than the one you bought on wii already
Yeah, Détruit, in this case, means that it's unsuable or more like un-sellable. but even in french, its a really strong word for this situation. as a french speaker, the first image I got was yoshi's amiibo exploding. Détruit is the new word of the week folks.
@Hachiko It's not a different formula. It's a spin-off. dude. Metroid...whre? samus, exploration, stroyline. Don't tell me that if you removed everything from zelda to make it a platformer, "its a different formula". if you want a game that is so different frome a said series, do another IP.
I'm sure the game will be pretty good. It's just the metroid prime. no. just don't put the name on it if its NOT a proper metroid game. It's like I would do "The legend of Zelda : Hyrule Soldier football". would be horrible
ANd now someone is gonna tell me they are interested in this concept. lol.
They drop the ball (haha) when they attached Metroid brand to it. When I fiorst saw it at the championship I was ok with it, borderline excited. New ip from nintendo, probably a eshop game. I will sure check this out. And then...it suppose to be a metroid game. seriously?
But this is E3. Expectations are there. everyone, EVERYONE is looking at you. what do you have in up your sleeves? This isn't a simple direct. I, too, was expecting a way more than that metroid spin off. too much, probably. But this is THIS time of year. And I can see why everyone feels that way. I feel it too. They could have shown this in a direct and I would have been happy, genuinely. We were expecting something big, something on the mainline of the series, and, I hate to say it this way, but expectation were not met. they were melted.
it was horrible at 11:00 through 12:00 est time. I went mow the lawn. and now I downloaded it super easily. like there was no traffic at all. MAN those dlc characters are worth it.
omg. I never took the time to enjoy the version on wii u. maybe this is my chance since I'm not home most of the time. I just dream of an cross platform stat where I don't have to make everything in double. like. to sync my progress if I just wanna continue in HD. can't be THAT hard.
I, too, took off work on 16-18th. So I got my ticket for the hype train too. Welcome aboard, everyone. This should be a thing. A real Hype train that let you watch everything E3 related during that week. gaming room and everything.
I just....I just can't wait for another metroid game. In fact. I want the ype more than anything else. This year nintendo, please let it be this year that you'll show something metroid related at E3. men. Just thinking about a Metroid on wii u, the map on gamepad you could look at, move, take notes etc, while not pausing the game (like WWHD) would be amazing. reading log entry on gamepad as well. etc. and also, please annouce a new 2.5D metroid on 3ds. with bonus when linked on wii u. you see my point? I wanna be hyped.
