This is true. Nintendo has been trying for the past 8 years to turn Metroid into a popular-for-the-masses game like Halo, but they haven't been able to accomplish that goal so far, and I don't think they ever will. Metroid will always be a niche franchise.

They're a spin-off series that became popular and well accepted because of the rise in dominance of portable systems. They're good games, but not true CV titles.

Oh boy, I smell a thread coming on.

Yup I learned the sad truth this past week looking at sales figures. That said it is a legendary franchise with high standards and an extremely loyal fanbase. Outside of the originals this will be the lowest rated Metroid game. Hunters is averaging higher, which shows that averages should not be taken seriously cause that game was crappy.

So much for coming to this site to feel relaxed, be ourselves, and share our opinions.

If that's how it is than I'll stop posting here. It's been fun most of the time, but I guess I'll be leaving.

You need to stop taking everything so seriously.

I thought Super Metroid was at least a 2 million seller. I figured Metroid games would sell like 3 million units and such. Nope.

Dvader has three gears when thinking: slow, VERY slow, and stopped.

Stopped is the position when he actually buys a Sonic game.
