The game will speak for itself; if it's better than AM2R then it will deserve the sales. If not, then, it begs the question as to why people should bother paying for an inferior product. If fans can produce something superior to the company's own efforts, there is no reason to mindlessly latch to the company.

>The game will speak for itself
You say that, but the hate was so big on Other M that it made people hat on Federation Force despite it being a fun multiplayer game...

Maybe that was on purpose? Nintendo know the hate was still there so they released Fed Force as a buffer to take the heat?
>>

>>381669175
Samus Returns is so substantially different from AM2R that it doesn't matter if it's better. It's a whole new game.
>>
>>381669371
Federation Force wasn't just hated because of other M, it was also hated because it's been seven fucking years since a proper Metroid of any kind came out. It's like a Banjo Nuts and Bolts situation rather than anything else. It was just poorly timed.

Zero Mission was one of my favorite Metroid games, isn't this pretty much just that but with Metroid 2? I really don't see how anyone could fuck it up THAT bad, y'all have too little faith.

I don't understand the division anyway, I like to see it as a two part metroid II
think about it, SR-388 is an huge planet, surely samus can't eradicate an entire race by exploring a couple of cave right?

That's still not a valid reason to hate a game. If he game is good, you don't hate it.

No.
1. Nuts and bolts was not a spinn-off but considered as a legitimate sequel to Tooie
2. Nuts and bolts was bad.

People just likes being pessimistic. Nothing new. Every single one of the people that got their hands on the game at E3 said that it played fantastic and looked gorgeous on the actual console (you know, without it being streamed on a big screen...) I'm not worried at all and nobody should be.

>>381669883

Like hell it was.
It was a perfectly fine game for vehicle creation fuckery and had shitloads to do with that concept. It was simply not a banjo game. Additionally, whether it was considered a spinoff or not isn't the issue; rather, the issue inherent is the fact that people were starved for what they wanted, but the next offering related to the franchise was perceived as the antithesis of what they wanted from it. Ergo, it is a very similar situation marketing-wise.

>>
>>381670026
Why would it matter if it's official, my marketer friend? I can understand that it's good to support the official continuation of a preexisting franchise for the purpose of ensuring its continuation and if the game is as good as people hope it will be well worth supporting; but, in the case that it isn't, is it really worth supporting an inferior product and thereby promoting the inferior product as being within acceptable parameters for future products? It strikes me that your argument is promoting the idea that there will be nothing of this sort in the future if people don't flock to this product, in spite of the fact that passion projects like AM2R crop up on their own regardless of it. Ergo, I can't see your argument as being terribly well reasoned if you look at all the facts as they are.

This is where I disagree with you. Fed Force isn't a game that was stuck in development hell while being anticipated by the fans for years.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QLWLdO9GLWM
Fan Hated nuts and Bolts because they really feel like it took over the game they were actually expecting. Fed Force never stole anyone's spot and it wasn't released in place of a different game that wasn't announced.
A better comparison to what Nuts and bolt is would be if, a few month before Breath of the Wild came out, it was suddenly announced that Breath of the Wild would actually be a Horse breeding game, leaving out anything else after years of hype.

The bait and switch they did between the trailer for a new banjo game and the reveal that it was a spin-off was 100% asshole and far worse than anything Nintendo did with Metroid. That's true.

But none of that supports a disagreement with what that anon said. He's exactly right. Metroid fans wanted a mainline metroid game, and after waiting a long time, they had something superficially similar and inadequate presented to them at a bad time. It made a lot of fans mad and Nintendo should've known better. They thought they were just announcing a game when they were in fact teasing a fan base that did not have the patience to be teased.

If federation force got announced a year or two after a mainline metroid game release, that reaction wouldn't have happened.
>>
>>381672201
I think we'll just have to agree to disagree. I get your point, but I still can't stand the look of Federation Force.
>>
>>381672025
God shut up

They literally made a pinball game and everyone was fine with it. If you take metroid that seriously you really need to kill yourself.

If you care at all about the future of 2D Metroid, you should buy this game. If you pirate it then I hope you get anally fisted by King Kong.

see that's a case of a really fucking good developer getting some absurdly shitty direction.

Please bare in mind that we know nothing about the creative process behind the game
and how at first glance it seems like Tea Ninja had enough creative freedom to turn it into a light character action game,
yet there were tons of things in terms of narrative, level design and painfully shallow mechanics that are not at all reminiscent of the studio.

Only assumption I can make is that Sakamoto fucked it up, however with Metroid 2 they already have a template of sorts to work with,
the worst thing they can do is add these optional casual mechanics and a parry that may or may not be baller as fuck.

Otherwise there's very little that can go wrong here
and I do not believe the worst case scenario wouldn't also still be a perfectly decent Metroid game
that is worth buying just to make sure more titles will be made in the future.

I still don't understand how people call Fusion "good tier" when it's pretty similar to pretty much everything they could fuck up in this game.
Screams hypocrisy if you ask me.

>>381672468
>Metroid fans wanted a mainline metroid game, and after waiting a long time, they had something superficially similar and inadequate presented to them at a bad time. It made a lot of fans mad and Nintendo should've known better.
Metroid fans should actually know that MEtroid isa series with a slow output. There was 8 years between super and Fusion/prime, after all. And a spin-off doesn't mean no new metroid games will ever come.

The biggest problem with people like you is that they see everything with such an incredibly cynical eye
that even a somewhat favorable scenario wouldn't satisfy you because you're painfully blinded by what you wanted instead.

You don't care if Samus Returns ends up being a good game that's worth supporting.
You only care about what you want and what AM2R, a fan game that took almost 10 years to make by one person,
therefore having unrealistically high amounts of creative freedom and no deadlines to meet whatsoever,
has done to your already stupidly high expectations.

You people will never be satisfied because you're bitter and scream bloody murder
when a spinoff like Federation Force gets released like it's he end of the franchise.
Then you get 2 fucking metroid games and you still hesitate to make the move.

You'd abandon a franchise for like 2 titles in the series as if you give a single shit,
yet you wouldn't do the same drastic measurements to support it, you hypocritical piece of shit.
>>
>>381672893
Yeah, they should know for their own good

And we told people who were assblasted that a spin-off does not take time or resources away from a mainline game. They can even release in similar time frames because very different games aren't competitors despite sharing a name.

But it's still socially retarded to produce and announce a game like that when a fan base is foaming at the mouth. It's stupid unrealistic, but everyone watches E3/Direct with optimism that they will get what they want. It doesn't matter if you know it doesn't work like that, you still hope. And the first job of video game producers is to find the easiest way to break bad news because there's always way more games that aren't being made than are being made.

A lot of people like Fusion. I do.
>>
>>381662114
It generally looks good, I'm definitely gonna buy it. The only iffy elements are the Aeion abilities and the melee counter. No idea if they're actually necessary to beat the game or if they're just a crutch for casuals.

That's not exactly true, we know that Sakamoto was responsible for the story, the controls, even the look of the Gravity Suit. Sakamoto's fingerprints are all over the game.
>>
>>381673260
You either have a selective memory or haven't been in enough metroid threads.

Overall you don't have to like fusion, but you're a pleb if you don't appreciate the fact that it's the only challenging 2D metroid since 1 & 2 and it's actually really fun to not tank and canon fodder every enemy in the game.
>>
>>381673615
Same here. Fusion's my favourite Metroid.

It doesn't look like they're necessary. Expect to see a lot of "no melee" runs attempted.

>>381673575
According to wikipedia, there are 66 million 3ds in the world.
The trailer for samus returns was viewed 2 million times on youtube.

So i'd say about 0.7 million at worst or if they release some trash trailer or even let the hype fall down
However considering mostly kids have a 3ds, if the cover of the game stays the same (with samus looking very shiny, robotic and "badass") the kids will probably be more inclined to buy it

overall 1.5 million is my prediction.
>>
>>381672875
>I still don't understand how people call Fusion "good tier"

>>381673615
Fusion is amazing, and undeniably kino.
>>
>>381673495
I haven't played AM2R or Federation Force, nor do I really have an opinion about either of them. The fact is that saying "buy Samus Returns to show support for the franchise regardless of how good the game is" is fucking retarded, and it allows companies to get away with making shit games because the desperate fanboys will buy them anyway.
>>
>>381673615
Fusion has the best atmosphere of any of the 2D games

>>381674330
I don't know much about the 3ds, but won't
samus return be playable on the first editions of the handheld? Or the 2ds?
>>
>>381673575
>what kind of sales will Samus Returns pull?
500k would be my generous estimate. If the game actually looked convincingly great from the footage they showed it might be 1mil, but it didn't.
>>
>>381674115
I think a lot of it will come down to review scores. Many people are using their 3DS systems as paperweights now, if they haven't outright sold them, so I feel like the game will have to score well in order to get people interested in picking up a brand new game for their dusty old handheld. So far things look promising because every member of the press who got to play it said it was incredibly solid.
>>
>>381674387
Yea sure let's just generalize everything,
why actually try to look forward to things and support it, aka speaking with your wallet,

I will speak with my wallet when a game is actually good. To me, a game being good matters more to me than a game having the word "Metroid" on the box. If gamers refuse to demand quality products from big companies like Nintendo, they won't bother making them.

Also from what we've seen of the treehouse, the Metroids moveset are a lot more varied. In AM2R they have like 2 attacks, but in SR the Gamma could charge, shoot lighting, generate a lighting field, disperse a wave of energy, throw projectiles and place lightening on the floor.

I think it's more of the sense that people are expecting a new mainline game of their favorite series and instead get shat on with something that looks like mii shovelware crap. Combine with the fear that the developers may never return to the core mainline of the game and instead only produce non-canon mini game stuff or endless cameos, etc.

Think with Capcom and how thirsty Dark Stalkers & Mega Man fags are when they haven't had a mainline game in decades.

But then they got Breath of the Wild and it was fucking glorious. Hopefully Prime 4 will do the same. (Though can we really consider Prime a core mainline game?)

>>381676398
The artstyle is definitely the biggest crime of FF, chibi is a word that should never be uttered in the same sentence as Metroid and even with that the game just looks bad.
If it looked like hunters but higher res and such then people likely would've been a lot more receptive.
There's been some interest in a federation spin off but people have been imagining something like Metroid: ODST not Metroid chibi soccer.

IGN: "I had to ask, was this project tied in any way to the illusive Metroid Dread, a sequel hinted at in Metroid Prime 3?"

Sakamoto: "I think it’s better to say that this is a remake, remastering of Metroid 2, a powered-up version of that, and not something to do with the other project."

Stuck in AM2R. I'm in the distribution centre, with the gun cancelling field.

I really don't get all this collective hate. I really don't give a fuck about the developer I'm just glad we're getting another Metroid game. Plus why would you compare AM2R to samus returns? Just be glad we live in a world where we get two different takes on the game. If I don't like the new samus returns I'll go play AM2R if I get bored of AM2R ill play samus returns.

In reality they just played a little of AM2R and talked shit about Nintendo since they didn't think Nintendo would actually make a new game and they can't put their money where their mouth is since they feel like they should be justified in their pirating.

These people are just leeches who just don't want to admit they just pirate because they want to rather than make it some kind of justified crusade.

I'm not even a Metroid fan but I'm getting this as it looks tight and I enjoyed Prime so I'll get the one on Switch too.

If you buy something more will be made, basic economics but the communists will always argue otherwise.

No there are specific points you can get permanently stuck.
I went back after getting speed booster to look for secrets. There's one where you have to speed boost up through the ceiling to get into another room.
However after getting there you have to use a power bomb to get out. I did not have power bombs yet and restart.
This is something you literally will never encounter in any other official Metroid game made by competent designers outside of some very very extreme sequence breaking in super Metroid.

There's four important Metroid veterans working on SR:

>Yoshio Sakamoto (producer)
>Takehiko Hosokawa (director/level designer)
>Kenji Yamamoto (composer)
>Minako Hamano (composer)

Hosokawa was previously the system director and game designer for Fusion and one of the level designers for Zero Mission. Outside of the melee counter mechanic, it seems like MercurySteam's just doing mostly the coding/programming while the actual direction and level design is coming from Nintendo.

Depends on your stance on motion controls. Personally I think the motion controls for Prime 1 are fantastic, it's like using a mouse to aim, and the GameCube version is a bit clunky by comparison because you can't aim and move at the same time.

The Wii version did cut some atmospheric visual effects and completely change some of the scan logs, but if that kind of thing doesn't matter to you then you'll be fine.

yes, but only if it's the US version due to extra tidbits of lore that were taken out in the Wii version to match the inferior PAL version.

also, the game is harder without motion controls.
>>
>>381682371
This looks fantastic
>>
>>381682540

Some water effects were removed down and so were the arm cannon effects when you charge a beam.
On the other hand, the Wii version includes widescreen. But you can enable that in the GC version if you emulate or use a hacked Wii/U.

>>381682540
Nothing major - some visual effects regarding the gun arm had to be changed due to the way aiming was altered for the motion controls, so you won't see the gun smoking after shooting many times in succession, or the gun frosting over from the ice beam.

The ability the player was currently using doesn't only grant invincibility, but also increases the power of Samus' melee parry. You can even see how much greater the visual indicator of the parry is in the footage. This caused the player to run out of Aeon energy.

Are their known examples of 60fps games being captured at 60fps at nintendo direct? I just want to be sure that the games aren't captured at 30fps and only the treehouse footage is 60fps.

I'm surprised because the polycount and texture resolution is a lot higher on mirror of fate. Samus returns looks like ass and if it's not to pull 60fps they must really, really suck.

It was a concept for a DS 2D Metroid game that was supposed to be a sequel to Metroid Fusion. Sakamoto back in 2010 stated that he wished to start the project over from scratch and interviews before that stated that one day we'll see it on store shelves.

So having looked at the melee parry being pulled off against Metroids a few times, it looks like you have to both block their charge attack and then fire at them immediately to initiate the counterattack sequence. It might be possible to just parry the charge and then not counterattack.

It's a good thing that didn't happen then.

>>381685450
No. You won't have to. The game doesn't allow aim and run at the same time. it doesn't use the thub. when you push L, you stay in plase nad the controller stick is used to aim. When you release L, you can run and shoot, but only shoot in a straight horizontal line.
>>
>>381685657
He built on top of the existing game. It's rather hard to credit him for making the game good in the first place.
>>
I wanted to ask, do you guys consider adam and adam AI two completely different characters.
>>
>>381685198
He stole Nintendo assets to make a game that he called his own, literally nothing in his shitty fan game was an original and just made in shitty game maker. The guy is a fucking hack who can't even make a real game, not to mention how hard he missed the original point of Metroid 2 by adding in shit that wasn't there before.

It's like taking a perfectly drawn portrait, copying it in fucking crayon and dumping shit all over it. That's what AM2R is.
>>
There's a lot I like about AM2R, but this excerpt from a critical review of AM2R that compares it to the original Metroid II sums it up really well imo:

>Imagine a choked, half-flooded tunnel that suddenly opens into a vast dome-shaped cavern, hundreds of meters tall and hundreds across. In the center of this cathedral-like cavern, a windowless tower of black stone rises from a lake of slowly dying magma. Past the millennia-sealed blast doors of the tower, ancient weapons of terrible power are locked away. The outer walls of the black tower are honeycombed with the burrows of horrific creatures, and a sickly, alien growth has crept from the many side-tunnels of the cavern and covered parts of the walls with barbed and twisted organic blades.

>Okay, now light it up with fluorescent lighting and monitor screens, fill the tower with cheerful-looking maintenance robots hovering about their business, and play an upbeat techno song over it. From At the Mountains of Madness to Revenge of the Sith, just like that.
>>
>>381686106
I do give him credit for not making a train wreck though

It's like the black mesa source of metroid except way smaller
>>
>>381685897
And this is building atop that same game, albeit differently. It still remains to be seen whether he did a better job of it or not though.
>>

Yes, Adam AI was pretty cool, Adam human was a douchebag.

See, this is why no one takes anything you say seriously and you always have to resort to calling people faggots
>>
>>381686120
AI Adam was getting closer to a reasonable human being at the end of Fusion than the actual Adam ever was in the entirety of Other M.
>>
>>381686287
Sounds fun, I should give AM2R a shot.
>>
>>381686412
He's not talking about Metroid 2 assets, dummy
>>
>>381686671
I loved AI Adamn. Other M Adam was fucking awful.
>>
>>381686139
Crazy how it ends up being better than Zero Mission and Fusion. Maybe the sales of Metroid being so bad is for a reason and it's trying to tell us something.
>>
>>381686287
>muh imagination
it was a shitty gameboy game that simply didn't work, from the actual lack of color to the shitty aspect ration, everything in Metroid 2 was bad, there's a reason before AM2R nobody reccomended it in any kind of chart.
Oh and why there were dozens of remakes being made out there.
>>
>>381685897
Wait, seriously? That sounds way too slow.
>>
>>381686985
Metroid is shit and that's why AM2R is shit, you admit it!
I win!
>>
>>381684817
>>381684839
I'm not complaining, I'm just a little bit mad because I was looking forward to avoid this one because my 3DS broke but now I have to buy another one for this and all the NDS backlog library I've been neglecting.
>>
>>381663861

Pretty sure the same people said the same about Other M on prerelease demos.
>>
>>381686985
>better than Zero Mission and Fusion

That's just like, your opinion, man.

The pixel art in that game is so fucking good, that it genuinely makes me want to try picking up pixel art.

No, it wasn't made by Nintendo. Admit it.
>>
>>381687294
Just buy a new 2DS. They're pretty sexy.

>>381687741
I didn't care for the one in the opening cutscene where Samus's arms looked all tiny.

can anyone drop me a link for the final version of am2r? I only have the very first unpatched one

Why is it when /v/ finally gets what they begged for for years they shit all over it? This place is insane.

The final version is 1.1, right? If no one else has a link, I'll upload it for you.
>>
>>381687437

It's a great screenshot there. Game was a repetitive slog though and you know it
>>
>>381687982
I don't really know which one it is which is why I asked, thank you very much anon, I'll keep an eye on the thread
>>
>>381687880
Just looked it up. Yeah, that looked weird but it's the only part of the game like that.

I loved the two Chozo statues on top of the tower, holding up SR-388. That looked so freaking incredible. And the backgrounds in general were very freaking good. It's games like this that make me sad that no one ever utilizes sprites anymore, outside of indie games, because technology has progressed to the point where pixel art can be VERY good, not to mention there have always been some older games that had brilliant pixel art, like Metal Slug or SF3.
>>
>>381684083
Samus Returns map is even more different than Zero Mission's map compared to Metroid's. This could be because Sakamoto didn't work on the map for Metroid II like he did for Metroid 1, this is how chances are he would have made it if he was involved with the original Metroid II on the Game Boy.
>>
>>381687916

Read the thread retard must people are excited it. It doesn't matter what opinion you have on something here there will always be two people who shit on it on principle.

Lurk long enough and you can learn who to ignore from how they type - revealing their faggotry troll nature
>>
>people are retroactively praising or saying Metroid 2 was good while shitting on a fan remake or an official remake
Did you people even play Metroid 2? I'm almost certain no sane person would think what AM2R changed especially in the late game was for the worst or that what >>381684083 posted would make it any shittier.
>>
>>381687885
>>381687982
>>381688167
What's the difference between the two? I only have the original version myself.
>>
>>381687560
>>381688070
I'm impressed that both of you managed to miss the giant incongruity in that screenshot. Or at least somehow resisted the urge to comment on it.
>>
>>381688201
It's the only thing that really stood out as bad to me. Otherwise, I was very impressed with AM2R.

>>381688304
Probably just bugfixes.
>>
>>381688303

>Retroactively
I always enjoyed Metroid II but found it to be pretty low ranking. I find AM2R to be a better effort but it seems to gloss over the few things that the original Metroid II did right to just do a Zero Mission sequel instead.

>>381688360

I saw it, just didn't think it was worth drawing attention to.
>>
>>381688303
The only major flaw in Metroid II is the lack of an in-game map.
>>
>>381662114
It looks great, and if reviews look positive I'll consider purchasing it.
>>
>>381688794
You don't need one. The areas are all completed in sequence, rather small and never get repeated.
>>
>>381688463
>>381688304
v1.1 has a few bug fixes (like the invisible gravity suit bug that affected some players) and added an additional fast-travel tube to the entrance of the Genetics Lab so that backtracking to collect upgrades isn't so much of a slog.

The fan patches beyond that add a few new features, like a mode that removes all the magma so you can tackle the game in any order you want.

I'm pretty sure most people thought so when they saw the trailer, some just got worried when they heard the name Mercury Steam and don't trust Nintendo to be able to whip them into shape.

Wait you can edit your map now? How would that be shit?

You can put markers on it, that's all. Eitherway, just having your map on the lower screen will be comfy as fuck.

It was. It was a log about the Pirates capturing Metroid Prime, it escaping and assimilating a bunch of Pirate Tech on it's way out.

>360 aiming
Good but I want to know what aiming while running is like now that it holds you in place

>Map markers
Pointless because there's a key for everything. What are you going to mark, power bomb blocks? Those are trash and shouldn't be in metroid anyway. Just fuck power bombs really. Especially finding power bombs.

>Melee attacks
Ghetto screw attack is better

>Scan pulse
The x-ray scope was cheating
Powerbomb spam was cheating
Now it's powerbomb spam that reveals hidden rooms.

Protip: How about using good room design to visually hint where secrets are
>>
>>381691119
You simply don't aim while running.
Chances are you can aim diagonally while running by holding the circle pad diagonally and that'll be it, just like past games.
>>
>>381690786
Not every games run on a double screen platform, though.

because its a remake of the second game, the second game which just got a fan remake that took 10 years and was absolutely fantastic

people are mad that they might somehow push out an inferior product compared to some random fuck in his moms basement and if true, will be the final nail in the coffin for nintendo, to those people

Why is it Nintendo's fault for remaking one of their own games just because a fan did it first? I wasn't aware this was the kind of thing a fan could claim ownership of.

Some faggot who makes blog about how he hates current Nintendo and Sakamoto. He hates everything Sakamoto did from Super to Other M (of course everyone hates Other M that's not really news). He talks about how Zero Suit ruined Metroid and how Fusion was a them testing Other M while Super was dumbed down to the lower common denominator. He's a massive autist.
>>
>>381694853
Why is he an e-celeb in metroid threads?

This is literally /v/'s opinions except super being dumbed down. It was casualized though
>>
>>381695510
True but he just straight up hates Super Metroid and Sakamoto. It's like Sakamoto took a shotgun to his family member or something.
