This would be the best week for Nintendo to announced the Metroid Prime 1 Remake/Remaster lol
They’re aggressively not interested in doing that unless they have a reason to like with some of the console -> portable ports that happened over the years. Those were either for the novelty factor / tech demo or to get the games to a wider audience (generational or when the portable was selling better than the home system).I think there is easy money for Nintendo in remaking games from their catalog, could be almost any game dating back to Nes. They are sitting on a cash cow. Remake the graphics and improvement to gameplay and even few extra levels if they wanted. Like imagine a remake of Mario bros 3 or Super Mario world? Zelda link to the past, donkey Kong country, Mario 64 , ocarina of time etc … you get he picture. They would sell based on nostalgia alone and for newcomers who have never experienced those games before.
The day is December 30, 2022. Famiboards is still holding out hope for the Metroid Prime Remaster to be announced before the end of the year.
Who do you think will win the run-off?I'm really depressed with the results of Brazilian election right now.. so many affected with Bolsonaro's daily negligence and stupidity. Minorities like me living scared of a walk down the streets.. and yet, so many votes for him it's unbelievable. Just gross..
I'm so angry, but at the same time I feel I don't have energy to even complain anymore..
Need something a bit meatierMaybe PC can’t handle Chaos;Head NoAH
it’s called Famiboards and it came out last yearI should make a new game called Shitpost Simulator 2023
I truly don't know.. I hope some folks that voted in other candidates don't throw their votes away in the run-off, but the amount of people willing to support Bolsonaro this time around is really discouraging.Who do you think will win the run-off?
Here it is
I agree. This sounds so much better. To think we could’ve had a Zelda tactics type of game from Retro would’ve been so cool. I love the book idea and the heroes you play as.As decent as the Sheikah concept sounded on paper, losing out on THIS hurts much more.
I would've eaten this up, and then been pleading for sequels.
I always liked Squall is dead.That Zelda fan theories thread has me remembering the fun times discussing fan theories for a lot of other games - anyone remember the "Ultimecia is actually Rinoa" theory for FF8? That theory had some holes in it and I'm pretty sure was officially debunked, but it also was a really cool idea that I like a lot. And it was one of my first exposures to internet message board fan theories back in the day.
shit dude that narrative is gonna be so epic and immersiveRetro’s had like 3-4 writers on Metroid Prime 4. One left a little earlier this year. Has Retro had so many writers on one game?
Gonna have quadruple the scanning logs!shit dude that narrative is gonna be so epic and immersive
Gonna have quadruple the scanning logs!
I actually did read a review years ago that referred to the Zelda series as "Nintendo's Soulslike franchise"Can't wait for the reviews: "The majority of Metroid Prime 4's story is told through scanning logs and computers, similar to how item descriptions tell the lore the dark Darks Souls series".
Didn't you know? Everything is a Soulslike if you try hard enough.I actually did read a review years ago that referred to the Zelda series as "Nintendo's Soulslike franchise"
I am going to happily devour all that hot new Metroid lore we're gonna seeRetro’s had like 3-4 writers on Metroid Prime 4. One left a little earlier this year. Has Retro had so many writers on one game?
Indeed.I am going to happily devour all that hot new Metroid lore we're gonna see
It's wild you say this. I was thinking of exactly that last night, lol. The Prime games officially becoming their own, divergent timeline, I mean. In some sense, I'd understand if they went that route, especially considering it would free them from the creative shackles of all these stories eventually having to lead into the events of Metroid 2.Indeed.
At this point, I'm just left wondering if Retro and Tanabe are going to follow through with those old plans about having Samus (and Sylux?) stuck on a world that has time travel, and continue Tanabe's tour de force through revisiting and reinvigorating his old Zelda game concepts.
But it'll be worth it if Prime finally gets an "out" for continuing its own plotline into a splinter timeline branch! Just blame it on "Sylux manipulating events from behind the scenes that make it impossible for the events of Metroid 2 and etc. to happen on this branch", or what-have-you!
I'll always be partial to "the Striaton Trio are the Shadow Triad" from Pokemon Black/White before it was debunked.That Zelda fan theories thread has me remembering the fun times discussing fan theories for a lot of other games - anyone remember the "Ultimecia is actually Rinoa" theory for FF8? That theory had some holes in it and I'm pretty sure was officially debunked, but it also was a really cool idea that I like a lot.
