*sigh* Why can't Nintendo do this for Metroid? They don't even have to show anything, it could have started development the week before and I wouldn't care, all they need to do is just definitively say "Yes. Metroid for Nintendo Switch is in development. Stay tuned." No more of these coy Reggie answers that neither confirm nor deny, like "we understand what our consumers want." Just give us something concrete already. Just tell us.
JUST TELL US!
Thomas Adams
>he doesn't know Reggie indirectly confirmed a new mainline Metroid game is in development, and that we'll know about it within a year's time.
Alexander Anderson
You wan't a clear answer? Fine.
NINTENDO IS NOT WORKING ON A NEW METROID.
THE SERIES IS SHIT AND IS ONLY PRAISED BY MANCHILDREN WEARING NOSTALGIA GOGGLES.
FUCK OFF.
Jordan Watson
This. Now shut the fuck up about Metroid. You fucks are so annoying.
Camden Cooper
Metroid doesn't have a dedicated team and doesn't rake in money.
Isaiah Wright
>Reggie indirectly confirmed a new mainline Metroid game is in development No. He did the same thing he's already done several times before: Spew corporate doublespeak that amounts to fucking nothing.
FUCK OFF.
Anti-Metroidfag whiners are literally much worse than Metroid fans at this point.
Hudson Jones
Because Metroid is shit.
Ethan Ortiz
We didn't make this thread you manchild.The whiny unpleaseable Metroidfag did. Now I'll stop bumping this shit thread after this post
Michael Lopez
>We didn't make this thread you manchild. But you certainly took the time to fucking click on it and post a bunch of irrelevant bullshit.
If you were anything above a rotten cumstain, you'd simply filter the thread and move on.
Xavier King
Super Metroid Remastered would be the laziest thing they could do yet fans would go fucking apeshit and pretend like nothing bad had ever happened.
Joshua Morris
You know that every time you complain about Metriod threads you cause them to last longer right?
Nolan Wilson
If it was in HD with maybe 2.5D graphics on Switch? Yeah. People would lose their shit.
Ryan Anderson
>This thread again. >Same text and image even. What's the purpose?
Parker Butler
>Brand new Metroid Prime released just last year. >Metroidfags still whine endlessly for a new game.
At least the faggots who whine for more Eternal Darkness, F-Zero, Advance Wars and Custom Robo have an excuse. Metroidfags are literally the worst.
Leo Howard
Neither did FE until they marketed it
Nathan Anderson
>Brand new Metroid Prime released just last year. Literally Prime in name only. Sold like shit, reviewed like shit.
Basically the same as a Custom Robo Tower Defense game or an F-Zero JRPG..
Isaac Taylor
>making metroid to appease a couple of angry hipsters on Sup Forums who will probably still shit on it
terrible business decision t bh
Colton Phillips
>F-Zero JRPG What would be the problem here?
Luis Adams

Mason Rivera
People said a Mario RPG was a retarded idea too, to be fair.
Eli Morris
Well sure but nobody would point at Superstar Saga or Legend of the 7 Stars and go "See! That's a mainline Mario game!"
We want a mainline title with backtracking and collecting upgrades with atmosphere and isolation as key elements.
Nothing else will sate us. Much like F-Zero fans would still want a sequel to GX even if Falcon Punch RPG is really fun.
Jackson Morales
Not him, but FE is only back because of waifufaggotry and sim elements.
Now I don't know about you, but Other M was already bad enough. Metroid needs a sense of isolation to work properly.
Alexander Smith
I have never heard anyone say that ever, considering mario RPG happened a long ass time ago and it was great.
Cooper Anderson
Mario has constant releases. People want to shake things up. F-Zero hasn't had a game in what, 13 years?
Hudson Roberts
>taking a thread I made last week and copy and pasting my text verbatim but adding weird embellishments
For what purpose?
Jacob Gray
That minigame in Nintendo Land counts.
Actually that should count for Metroid, too, since it was better than Other M and Prime 3.
Leo Wright
FE is cheap as shit to make though.
The main Prime games likely require a much larger budget than a simple looking SRPG.
Jonathan Kelly
Because metroid doesn't sell. And after the mess from Other M and the flop that was Federation Force say goodbye to your favorite series
Luis Garcia
Because Metroid costs too much money.
Fire Emblem is an extremely low budget series. Both 2D and 3D metroid is more expensive than a simple ass fire emblem game.
Christian Butler
>mainline Qualify exactly what this is. No one ever said Federation Force was a "mainline" title.
The difference between Prime and Federation Force is not comparable to the difference between a fucking platformer and a turn-based RPG, false equivalency.
Christopher Evans
JUST
Samuel Perez
It's your own fault for rejecting Federation Force. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean a new game is coming any sooner.
Besides Nintendo are better off appealing to players who actually appreciate the games, I hope another Donkey Kong game comes before Metroid.
Levi Martin
>*sigh* heh....nice try....kid.... *teleports out of thread*
Nathaniel Williams
Federation Force didn't sell. That was your chance.
Joseph Ortiz
Because Fire Emblem sells. Metroid does not
Luis Adams
Because Metroid hasn't Final Fantasy'd itself out of its darkest spot. Once it does that, we'll see Metroid Fates, Metroid Echoes (HA!) and Metroid Warriors.
Asher Wilson
>Literally Prime in name only And gameplay seeing as it's just a condensed Prime.
Julian Brown
Metroid is boring and it sucks.
William Robinson
>Metroid has only 1 female character >Said female character was too big and scary for japs, so Nintendo shrunk her as the years went by >japs didn't buy Prime, Zero Mission nor Fusion >Last attempt to appeal to japs was with a more story driven game and a Dead or Alive styled Samus >Ultimate last attempt to appeal to japs was to chibi-fy the game >Without waifus Metroid failed in japan >Nintendo believes there isn't a world outside of Japan.
They should just have western indie devs do 2D Metroid forever, at least to keep the franchise on life support.
Benjamin Barnes
I think the reaction to Federation Force really drove home to Nintendo that Metroid 'fans' don't care about the games. All they care about is their token female protagonist.
Anyone who had played and enjoyed Metroid Prime could see what they did with Federation Force and see how it evolved from the Prime series to create something fresh and different, but they didn't care. If it didn't have Samus, it wasn't a 'real' Metroid game.
Nintendo is better off making new franchises at this point. Metroid is a toxic brand.
Leo Walker
>Why can't Nintendo do this for Metroid?
Because by and large, Japanese don't give much of a shit about Metroid. Even the Dead or Alive team turning Samus into a moeblob waifu in Other M couldn't help.
As long as Fire Emblem sells, you'll get more Fire Emblem.
Kayden Ramirez
To be fair, the last few entries in the series has been panned while FE was breathed new life. FE is more profitable than Metroid, and has been for a while.
Brandon Rivera
>sigh
Didn't even read the rest.
Dominic Sullivan
>Why can't Nintendo do this for Metroid? Because Metroid suffers the same problem Star Fox does
>have a game that does great for its time but ages badly >only popular in the West >attempts to cater to Japs end horribly >last main title puts the series on hiatus for years with Smash cameos and party game references as the only references nintendo gives it >after a long while, nintendo makes a new game to see if said franchise is still relevant >fan reception and reviews are mixed to poor >sales-wise, it flops >Nintendo sees there's not enough of an audience to continue supporting niche series and is pushed away forever
And as for FE, Awakening saved the series from death and Fates became the best sellign game in the west, and there's no sign of the franchise loosing traction anytime soon, so of course Nintendo will capitalize the hell out of it. Until Metroid can pull post-Awakening numbers, a Metroid direct isn't going to happen, let alone another game
James Cook
>Star Fox is dead!
Miyamoto confirmed sequels are coming. :)
Josiah Lewis
Nintendo isn't as tone deaf as you'd like to believe. They know their consumers want a proper Metroid game.
Aiden Lewis
Because Other M bombed and so did that 3DS game. You've shown no interest in Metroid Sup Forums. It's all your own fault.
Leo Bailey
Why do people on Sup Forums act like Federation Force was Nintendo's last chance for Metroid? It was a fucking spin-off game.
Jonathan Wood
>Awakening 'saved' FE I think you need to look up what saved means, because your definition is the opposite.
Logan Cruz
Because no one cares for a shit game like Metroid.
Let it go.

Juan Ross
>we could've had this >instead we're getting Corrin/Ryoma/Xander I hope the Heroes vote makes them reconsider who is actually popular among the fanbase.
Daniel Baker
What if we make Star Fox, F-Zero and Metroid have waifu features?
Joshua Walker
Fuck off already
I really love this mei mei
Nolan Morris
Ryoma is literally a cooler Lyn from a gameplay perspective and Xander is a million times better than boring ass Marth. Corn is shit but at least he has a chainsaw sword.
Austin Nelson
HAHAHAHAHA.
Oh god, please shut the fuck up, fatesfag.
Nicholas Thomas
Did I strike a nerve, Lynbabby? Do tell how Ryoma's electrical elements aren't objectively more interesting than Lyn's boring katana.
Andrew Thomas
Last I checked, we have 3-4 FE games between now and some time next year, that seems pretty lively. Awakening kept the series alive so we could reach this point while sacrificing very little.
You're fucking high if you don't think we'll be getting some GBA and Tellius action
Gavin Sanchez
No, i am just annoyed by imbeciles.
Lyn has after-images, bows to use, Mani Katti (Fast but low damage) could be changed in real time with the Sol Katti (Slow but high damage), maybe they could add that teleport slash from Brawl and obvious super human-acrobatics.
Adding sparks to anything doesnt make Ryoma less than an badly written character.
Aaron Brooks
Remember TMS#FE?
How much Tellius and GBA action was there?
Cooper Bailey
Raijinto is super cool, but unfortunately, Ryoma is a massive twat and few people really like him. Xander is less of a twat, but people like him even less. The point is, not only are these characters overhyped compared to the fanbase's actual opinions on them, having them all there serves as a poor celebration of Fire Emblem. This is not the way to do a crossover, in my opinion.
Ian Perry
>Lyn has after-images, bows to use, Mani Katti (Fast but low damage) could be changed in real time with the Sol Katti (Slow but high damage), maybe they could add that teleport slash from Brawl and obvious super human-acrobatics.
So she hits really fast. And literally no one else can do that? Okay kiddo.
>Adding sparks to anything doesnt make Ryoma less than an badly written character.
Better than being babbys first waifu bait. Also >implying writing means jack shit in a fucking musou
David Hernandez
>And literally no one else can do that? Okay kiddo. Literally no other LORDS can do that
Josiah Moore
F-Zero has a lot of waifus, but none are popular. Samus is the only female character, and Star fox's fanbase is full of gays/fujos that hate waifufaggotry
Jaxon Hughes
How does having autism feel like, fatesfag?
You ignore my fucking points as you please.
You are retarded, and i am sorry for you.
Jeremiah Nelson
>F-Zero JRPG
You say it like its a bad thing
Dylan Sanders
>*sigh* Why can't Nintendo do this for Metroid? *shrugs in a hopeless manner* I dont know my friend, I guess the answer to that question will come in a brighter tomorrow. *gazes to the horizon (symbolism of the future) with a tear in my eye*
Michael Gray
How utterly ironic coming from you of all people.
Feel free to gloss over my last point though.
Connor Perez
>venomroy calling someone else autistic oh god i can't stop laughing
Easton Phillips
Reminder that VenomRoy is an autistic falseflagging shitposter that is obsessed with making GBAbabbies look bad.
Nathan Perry
I think he's just incredibly deluded and full of himself with added autism to complete the package.
Carson Myers
>and Fates became the best sellign game in the west
It had a better launch, but ended up selling worse overall worldwide. With #FE's failure, the series has already peaked.
Joseph Wilson
Pff Wathever, kiddos.
At least dont fuck other people over with your shit taste.
