>What do you think the story will be?
Sylux sets up a base on remote planet for samus to blow up
>How do you think the planet/s will look like and what kind of level design will it have?
Given the trend of the last two Prime games, it'll be multiple planets again, with a bit more connectivity than Prime 3
>Do you want to see the ship being playable again?
Yeah, but only if it's more dynamic
>Do you want to see multiplayer again?
Sure, if it isn't halfassed and has good netcode
>Will you buy it?
Of course

Not for a while, maybe Summer 2018

Sylux shenanigans, phazon is back in some form judging by the logo

No fucking clue, maybe a mix of nature and technology like Aether but could really be anything

Wouldn't mind it

nah

Reminder to not buy Samus Returns and its shit dlc policies enforced by Nintendo

Just for that I'm buying two.

>What do you think the story will be?
The Federation misses the power phazon gave their equipment and creates synthetic phazon. Sylux steals a prototype constructor or something and sets out to hunt Samus.
>How do you think the planet/s will look like and what kind of level design will it have?
Dark, abandoned military base with a black and yellow/green colour scheme. Permanently stormy area around it. Transport vehicles to other sections of the planet and one location in orbit.
Dry, bright scrapyard area with rusted metal and half-functioning equipment
Lush jungle area with treehouses
Underwater base with flooded rooms and lava
>Do you want to see the ship being playable again?
No, it removed the isolation feeling.
>Do you want to see multiplayer again?
Nah
>Will you buy it?
It would require me to buy a Switch. Maybe - it depends on what FE looks like and whether Atlus makes anything.
>Also when do you think Nintendo's going to reveal more about it?
Not until 2018

keep this trash out of this thread.
this is a Metroid PRIME thread, not Metroid "in-general" one.

>What do you think the story will be?
Probably some stuff with Sylux. No Phazon, that ended with Prime 3
>How do you think the planet/s will look like and what kind of level design will it have?
Abandoned Federation base where we learn about Sylux a bit more.
Jungle/mine site where Space pirates are up to no good again.
Probably a water-based area.
They said the design will be closer to Prime 1 so more along the lines of that.
>Do you want to see the ship being playable again?
I guess, I hope they keep the Prime 3 ship design
>Do you want to see multiplayer again?
Eh, as long as it doesn't detract from the singleplayer
>Will you buy it?
Need to get a Switch first, but hopefully yes
>Also when do you think Nintendo's going to reveal more about it?
Next E3 or early 2018

Reminder that the less support you show for 3d titles, the more incentive Nintendo has to go back to the franchises' roots and release actual true to metroid games that sell, unlike shitty feminist sensationalist CoD clones.

I'm happy that it's being developed by a new team, because it means they'll probably do something fresh. As much as I love the original trilogy, I don't want a retread of the same shit.

I wouldn't be surprised if we see bigger, more open areas. They won't be constrained by hardware to chop everything up into little rooms like the original games, but it will be interesting to see if they do that anyway as a design decision. Bigger areas would certainly change the flow of the game a bit.

Because there's no release date

Your post would have more weight if they didn't follow up Other M's failure with Federation Force

don't fucking buy this shit, it has no business even fucking existing

Him and other ultra autists like movieblob hate prime just because it's in first person and they think it's like CoD, probably never played a single one

yes?

You will never be as well received as 2D.

I admire your bravery but it's not gonna happen. Im very excited for both and will certainly buy them, albeit a little apprehensive for SR.

Will he be back? And will he finally get an Amiibo?

what did the blue bear mean by this Sup Forums?

is the bottom left for Prime 4 or Fed force?

Insider here. I've been trying to research Metroid Prime 4 specifically. It's kind of an odd case.

Nintendo is specifically having certain aspects, like the art and scan logs, outsourced by another studio while the internal team works on the actual gameplay.

My assumption is that they're bringing on critical players from the old days to work on the project, although I can't say for certain who they are just yet. Actual environments look great and really expansive in some ways. You can call your ship in wherever when you're on the surface and have cleared the area of intelligent, hostile life.

Sylux finds some big dick power and is wreaking havoc on other planets and Samus has to track him down and stop him

I'm expecting it to be one or two planets, one very natural like Tallon IV and another being mostly mechanical, first planet being where Sylux found power, second being where he's applying it
>ship playable?
i don't really care for it so i'd say no, won't be crying if it is tho

maybe, hunters without hackers and an actual controller would be tops
>buying?

>reveal more?
January will be when we get a big drop of info

Anything new or any suggestions you guys hope to see with beams/grapple? More Samus mechanics that would be good for puzzles/battle.

I'm looking forward to the day where Nintendo realises that just because you have a console that can push polygons it doesn't mean you can't make high-quality 2d art for it. Seeing Samus Returns be revealed as having 3d art was such a disappointment.

can we finally get a metroid game where Ridley isn't easy as fuck?

see see

Please. Although it's a good fight in Prime on Hard.

Ridley needs to fucking die along with the prime series. Metroid needs a new 2d game like it needs a new villain, enough with your fucking furfag epic space dragon scaly husbando bait shit already.Reoccuring villains that have died several times are a sign of creative bankruptcy and it's apalling as fuck that you're supportive of this character. Ridley doesn't even have any staying charm like Bowser does to make it in any way acceptable to keep bringing back such a generic villain that doesn't even have an interesting attack pattern in any of the games he appears in. Just a bunch of nostalgia pandering because Ridley was the scariest boss monster they could create on the NES.

it's for Prime 4 and after retard

Ridley and the rest of the other Metroid/Metroid Prime bosses got cameos for those mobile suits in FF

Holy shit you typed this whole thing out

who let the Smash autists in?

Even if user's lying I'll bite
is it open world?
when can we expect more news about it?

>Samus' rivalry with Ridley and the Chozo race will be temporarily put aside

THANK YOU, JESUS. I thought they would run out of contrived plot excuses for bringing Ridley back a long time ago, but it just kept fucking happening. If they're gonna rehash an old boss, at least bring back Kraid. We haven't seen him in a while.

I'm sure we'll be exploring the ruins of another ancient "Chozo but totally different because they have a different name" race.

How do you not see those Sonic complaints are coming from three distinct groups of people? "I CLAPPED" fags who want mania aren't compatible with boostshit fags which aren't compatible with adventure fags. It's especially obvious since 1-3, adventure+2, and unleashed/generations line up so clearly with the childhoods of three distinct generations.

Yeah my dude, there certainly aren't loose ends or teased themes from the previous games that could be the basis for the 4th entry which we could discuss, no sir.
>Let me just ignore the first part of the OP too which is about the Prime series in general

>You will never be as well received as Zero Mission
good, Prime needs to stay as a million seller series.

I really hope they show us something within the next year.

>What do you think the story will be?
Something about Sylux doing evil stuff.
>How do you think the planet/s will look like and what kind of level design will it have?
I don't know, but all I want is a single location, be it a planet, a moon, or a space station, but with varied and creative environments, coupled with good game design.
>Do you want to see the ship being playable again?
Hell yeah. First I want them to return and improve the Prime formula and introduce new on-foot elements before anything else but I would love to see the ship having more use in future Metroid games. It's one of the most iconic vehicles in all of vidya. We should totally get a Metroid game that were sort of like Arkham Knight but better.
>Do you want to see multiplayer again?
Unless it's Hunters 2, fuck no.
>Will you buy it?
Hell yeah.
>Also when do you think Nintendo's going to reveal more about it?
Not until next year.

I FUCKING LOVE THE SHIT OUT OF METROID

>the features are that it exists, and that it has a development team who remain unnamed
It's so obvious they just slapped it together when they realized they had nothing to show at E3

Zebes, but Aether has some amazing areas and aesthetics

>And for Prime 4
>>What do you think the story will be?
Samus shooting and exploring
>>How do you think the planet/s will look like and what kind of level design will it have?
I am not sure, I'm 50/50 for it either being different zones, or different planets. As long as it's executed well, I'm all for whatever they go with, I just want more ecosystems to study with the scan visor and learn about the world(s).
>>Do you want to see the ship being playable again?
Nah, not necessary, but if they make it interesting it could be fine. As long as they don't make it a tedious thing that you have to do often
>>Do you want to see multiplayer again?
Doesn't matter, it was never about multi.
>>Will you buy it?
Yes, and a switch.
>>Also when do you think Nintendo's going to reveal more about it?
Probably mid to late 2018

...

Those are questions for you

>Yeah my dude, there certainly aren't loose ends or teased themes from the previous games that could be the basis for the 4th entry which we could discuss, no sir.

Well start posting about them

We all agree Metroid Prime 3 is garbage right

>It's so obvious they just slapped it together when they realized they had nothing to show at E3
of course they knew
why do you think Nintendo backpedeled about MP4 being a 2018 game, not just another showing

see

gib more (You)s

>we will never have the days of the comfy space pirate general back
>Sup Forums has become so much of a cesspool even regular threads are near-impossible
I left Sup Forums for Sup Forums ages ago and came back just recently, it's depressing as fuck.

i agree

>looked through old wii games
>found the fucking metroid prime trilogy with the metal case and everything
>forgot I even had that shit
Which one should I play first

>all I want is a single location

I agree. Multiple locations in Prime 3 was cool, but multiple locations inherently makes everything a little more linear and removes some of the exploration that made me love the first game. Part of what makes Metroid games fun for me is getting to know the world and gradually figuring out how all of the areas interconnect. Even Prime 2 lost some of that by having such a rigidly-defined hub structure.

compared to the first 2 I'd say it's the weakest even if it has its moments
>multiple planets
>more hunters
>the lore on bryo
>Elysia in general
>Phaaze
>new suit
compared to Hunters or Fed Force it's much better

>"Chozo race will also be absent"
That's lame

What are the chances this game will have something to do with the "Monks of Grondheim"?

This has been bugging me ever since I noticed that one log entry in Metroid Prime 1...
metroidwiki.org/wiki/Monks_of_Grondheim
Who are these monks? And why do they value these red magma crystals so highly? Will we ever get an answer?

By 3 you mean all three prime games? Yeah, I can wholeheartedly agree.

Finally, someone here who makes sense. Fuck multiple locations.

It's weaker than the other two but it's nowhere near garbage.

>I'm sure we'll be exploring the ruins of another ancient "Chozo but totally different because they have a different name" race.
the Luminoth were a great alternative

If there's no Chozo, the Federation better fuck off too.

Small numbers usually come before big numbers, assuming you've never played them before.

Gamecube controls > Wiimote controls, fight me. I'm guessing the new one will have motion aiming, which mite b cool.

I like the Luminoth, but they were basically the exact same concept as the Chozo. They just had slightly different architecture.

My guess is standard shooter controls with gyro for fine-tuning like every other aiming thing Nintendo has done. I'm happy with it so whatever.

>fight me
Gladly, c'mere fgt

It's a 7/10 game in a 9-10/10 series. It's by no means garbage, but it's not fantastic.

>game
Prime
>Suit
Gravity or Dark
>Beam
Nova

>Prime 4 Story
I dont know, but an idea I like is that sylux shoots down samus and traps her on a planet. His character is then like SA-X, where he is super powerful and samus is basically on the run from him on this planet (maybe she tries to hide from him and when he finds her she will have to retreat to a surrounding planet)
>Areas
I think we will get areas that mimic the areas in the earlier prime series (lava, snow, swamp, future tech, ruins, etc)
>Playable Ship
Maybe, I wasnt a huge fan of it in 3 but i could get behind it if they changed our interaction with it (maybe we control the ship for a couple smaller sections that involves manually flying and fighting)
>Multiplayer
Sure, I would like multiplayer, but only if it is an afterthought from the single player experience. I would prefer if they maybe made their own stand-alone game
>Buy it
Yes
>More info
E3 next year, we might get bits and pieces beforehand but i expect to get the bulk of info about it at/after e3

>the Federation better fuck off too.
>next game is going to be about Sylux and his deal with the feds and their intents of the metroids

What are the chances of them using some of the cut content from the previous games in 4?
I'd love to see how you'd fight this guy

Fuck, I'm so sick of "muh space gubbermint", I just want Samus exploring weird fucking places and fighting weird fucking aliens. I even LIKE the Federation, at least the Retro one that isn't Weyland-Yutani with a strip of duct tape over the name.

God, a 3D Kraid fight would be so fucking sick.

Glad we agree it's garbage

And for Prime 4
>What do you think the story will be?
Some Sylux dumb shit since Tanabe has a boner for him. Also, federation stuff.
>How do you think the planet/s will look like and what kind of level design will it have?
Prime 3 style unfortunately. Didn't like the federation involvement, and the way you navigate through planets working for the feds.
It took out the isolation feeling and made you feel that you were in an universe with more people than you. Except the pirate base it didn't feel isolated or hostile.
>Do you want to see the ship being playable again?
Nnnnmeh...
>Do you want to see multiplayer again?
nope
>Will you buy it?
Sure, unless it's shit.
>Also when do you think Nintendo's going to reveal more about it?
2018

>YFW They bring back the mad AI from Prime 1.5

i'm sick of it too, but Tanabe said he's taking care of fleshing out what's the Metroid universe is like beyond Samus in Metroid Prime before we go back to usual Samus Adventures

hopefully this would mean a game about her in some sort of giant exploratory Space Prison planet from Metroid 1.5 (i think)

>ost is traditional orchestra instead of the synths and choir

>Do you want to see multiplayer again?

Do I want Metroid Prime 2 multiplayer? Fuck no. Would the Switch be perfect for a sequel to Hunters? Absolutely. No voice chat aside, a new, multiplayer-focused Hunters game would be super fun. Especially if they decided to put event the slightest amount of effort into balancing it this time.

>OST is generic "super-hero JUSTice time" music similar to Federation Force

Except based Kenji Yamamato is coming back.

thank god
i noticed that every Metroid game he's not involved ends up being pretty shitty
>Other M
>Federation Force

Aw yis

>Other M
I fucking hated that game's generic orchestral soundtrack. How do you fuck that shit up?

I'm buying this and not Primeshit so go fuck yourself.

lel no it's not, no boss is hard in prime aside from hard mode omega pirate

five bucks it's nu-Bungie or Bethesda devs doing Metroid Prime
>Tood Howard get his dirty hands on it

>so desperate for (You)s he's replying to ancient posts

Still have it preordered but fuck, all that shit about Fusion suit pisses me off. I do hope that Fusion mode is just cosmetic bullshit that we can unlock in the game another way. I do still want those amiibos though, just because I need to have them but I also only have an original 3DS model so I'm fucked there.
