Nah they're still gonna go all in on Prime 1 remake and Prime 4.Nintendo: “alright we have pastered the internet and the billboards with Metroid worldwide, if this game don’t sell, no one can complain if we F-Zero this series”
(Probably)
Okay! Avatar pic fixed, dark mode enabled, let's try this place out! Hey everyone!
I also wanted to share this. This morning I just saw a big Metroid Dread AD on my way to work at Shepherds Bush Station in London. The picture I took dosen't do it justice but man it's so rare to see Nintendo ads here in London lol.

I am already looking forward to your signature being a rotating barrage of dad jokesWelcome friends, one and all! It's so nice to see everyone here, it feels so friendly and fun already.

It’s also the fact that Metroid has no dedicated Studio at Nintendo proper. I don’t think they *intended* to keep it on ice for so long, they just didn’t find someone to make it.I don't think Nintendo will ever really "F Zero" Metroid, tbh. I think it may become a lower priority for them, and it may get long hiatuses again in the future, sure, but I think Nintendo is generally aware of the prestige of Metroid, and its ability to command a demographic's interest that traditionally few Nintendo first party games reach.
Dread and Prime 4's success aren't going to decide whether the series has a future, because it does, and it always will, it's never going to be discontinued. Dread and Prime 4's success (or lack of, if it comes to that) will only decide to what degree Metroid will be prolific in the future.
I'm properly confused now. A Japanese speaking person told me the current version was correct.The katakana for "Famiboards" is wrong.
It should be 「ファミボードズ」or more appropriately 「ファミボード」. (Right now it reads "FamiBoozu"...FamiBose?)

Here's one I literally just made up on the spot:I am already looking forward to your signature being a rotating barrage of dad jokes
Yeah, I think Iwata's restructuring that gutted SPD had that as an unfortunate side effect. But even after that, it was clear Metroid was a priority for Nintendo - a Metroid game was used to debut the DS. A Metroid game was used to debut the Wii. Other M was clearly a high budget investment from them (a terrible high budget investment, but the point is they clearly saw the series as a tentpole).It’s also the fact that Metroid has no dedicated Studio at Nintendo proper.

The closest correct name would be 「ファミボード」, disregarding the plural form. ("FamiBoard")I'm properly confused now. A Japanese speaking person told me the current version was correct.

Goddamn lmao, enviousWalmart just sold me a Switch OLED lmao. The very same one that sold me The Origami King a week early last year. I even joked that I didn't think it was supposed to be out yet, and they said "it doesn't say so," and didn't think anything of it.
They didn't have Metroid out yet, though :-(
I just want to be excited for Legends without someone telling me that actually it looks like a PS1 era game or what notSo here's the place where my Pokémon loving friends have gone huh.
Who is this mysterious person who's just the letter "D"?He’s so cool.
