WHY THE FUCK WASN'T THIS STARTED 3 YEARS AGO?! DID THE WII U HAVE TOO MANY GAMES?!

Metroid would be the perfect franchise for that fucking overgrown controller.....so lets not make it. Or to show off the power of the console....so let's not make it. Hell it should have been the big launch game. Idiots.

Yeah.

This doesn't give me hope for Metroid ever being what it was back in the Prime days. This sounds like Nintendo doesn't think Retro have the guys to do it anymore.

So when would such a game be announced? And would he work with Metroid Prime developer Retro Studios again, despite the fact that many of the original staff have now moved on?

"I'm the producer of the Metroid Prime series, and [Metroid series co-creator] Yoshio Sakamoto is the one in charge of Metroid itself. I'm not sure when he's planning on making such an announcement so I can't speak for him.

"I'm not thinking about anything like that [partnering with another studio] right now. We have nothing to announce on working with any specific team."

This too. Boggles the mind. Wtf is retro working on then?

Yeah.  I hate this.  IMO, prime was the greatest franchise in Nintendo history ( Zelda is a close second) and Nintendo has blown it with that one.

Most is a myth. They lost 5 actual key dudes, only one of them was a director, and none of them have actually shown they were on their way to do quality shit.

That batman game for the handhelds was garbage, one of the other dudes went on to work on Halo 4's map designs which were fucking generic and completely unintresting as maps, and another dude was about to make the shittiest Doom reboot humanly possible. Retro is like reverse rare, they lose people that they don't apparently need.

Welcome back Leo.

I didn't do it.

Don't be so modest, this was our intention from the start.

I wasn't pissing on the flowers, just pissing and moaning in general.
