Oh wait, that's Breath of the Wild. FFXV in all its cinematic glory has more action than Nintendo's "action" titles.

The amiibo crap is shitty but hey, it's not like theres precedent for it like the GC's GBA cable.

I'd say the perspective and enemy design is what carried Prime. Not sure if they'll be able to do it a 4th time or if Corruptions was even decent enough to warrant a fourth
Sidescrollers are different. The game looks cheap and made by exactly the kind of outsourced company it's actually made by, compared to something like Metal Slug, and the enemies reflect that. There is also something impersonal about sidescrollers, which is why they generally back it up with solid gameplay.

I don't remember why I played Super Metroid, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't for the atmosphere.

How? Between the spammable melee attack, scanning, and the possibility of the highest difficulty mode being sold separately, I'd argue the opposite. Samus Returns could be the easiest Metroid yet, and I wouldn't put it past Nintendo to weasel that into the marketing.

>>386463621
Well thats easy. Its much easier to make sprites look more appealing than 3D models.

I would agree, that they should have opted to use sprites for something as weak as the 3DS, and then maybe transition to 2.5D if they made one on Switch.
>>
>>386463594
Considering the original was on the fucking original Gameboy, it probably didn't have a difficulty setting.
In fact, unless i'm wrong, Metroid Prime was the first one to even have a difficulty setting.

I like to believe I'm a legit fan and I'm not looking forward to it at all. Metroid 2 was my least favorite so far, fighting Metroids for all the bosses bugged me. Am2r was more playable but it's still not nearly my fave.

It also really annoys me that so many remakes are being done on the 3ds after the switches release. It has very little value as an HD remake since it looks like an n64 game, I would have preferred 2d sprites or just a virtual console (which I think they have). Plus the amiibo controversy wouldn't have been as bad on switch because I don't need an accessory to scan amiibos.

I'd rather just let metroid die, I still play super metroid a few times a year and anything 2007+ has been ignored.

That's not a good argument. I played metroid 1 and beat it once but Zero Mission is definitely a better game. You can fucking hate the original and still look forward to it's nintendo-brand remak since nintendo's remakes tend to update old-as-fuck concepts, not just graphics.

Sadly nintendo has proven that metroid isn't important to them and are just trying to get people buy to their retarded amiibos more than the game itself. Metroid 2 is kinda boring and I was happy to see it getting a remake but this... this is embarrassing for nintendo judging by the quality.

It's still a large IP owned by nintendo first and foremost. It looks like a Mercury Steaming pile of shit but that doesn't change the fact nintendo let them do it.
>>
>>386465164
The problems in Metroid 1 that were fixed by Zero mission was mostly polishing the NES games arcahic design choices due to hardware limitations. Samus Returns isnt going to change the fundamental base of Metroid 2, which is, hunting metroids.

That means the game is still going to be linear and most of the boss fights are metroids.

I'm not talking about it because I already played the superior AM2R. Why Nintendo went with this absolute shit 2.5D bullshit is beyond me. They could have released a gloriously polished beautiful sprite based game that they could also released on the switch that wouldn't look like rotting vegetables. But nope, we get this crap. Nintendo proving time and time again that they absolutely hate the Metroid franchise.
>>
>>386465667
And you're going to blame the developers for staying faithful to a game you didnt enjoy in the first place?
>>
>>386465442
That wouldn't be a problem if they made the fights interesting, but from everything we've seen the fights are boring and unchallenging. Shoot, at least in AM2R the metroids were aggressive and constantly trying to kill you, even if you were able to pick up on their attack patterns. And at least they learned from previous encounters. My biggest problem is that any criticism and counter-criticism of the game will go like this:

>the game is too easy
>w-well you have to avoid using all these features and the counter mechanic and buy the amiibo

>I did all of that, game is still too easy
>WELL IT'S NOT MADE FOR YOU STUPID SONYGGER KYS

The exact same thing happened with Breath of the Wild. It really pisses me off. Can these people take even one bit of "wrongthink" without exploding in rage?
>>

How do you know it's superior when you haven't even played Samus Returns?
>>
>>386465754
>but from everything we've seen the fights are boring and unchallenging

I like how you say this but then praise AM2R, when the metroids have like 2 attacks and theyre main one consists of the metroid model being dragged across the screen and trying to play a game of tag with samus.

At least the Metroids in Samus Returns has a varied moveset.

A varied moveset in which they don't try to kill you. Very challenging indeed.
>>
>>386465745
This is a case where staying faithful was the wrong move though. Metroid 2 is one of the weaker games in the series because of it's core design.

If Super Metroid were to be remade for example, it would be a good idea to stay faithful. It depends on the game really.

I blame the developers for the graphics primarily. It's hard to say how much influence nintendo had over the development. Is this third party incompetent or is nintendo a shitty overlord? I dunno, I don't care: The game looks like shit either way.

It wouldn't be so bad if they didn't go with that shitty 3D look they've been trying to force on their hardware.

They don't know what fans of the series want out of the series, and it doesn't help that gaming as a whole is so mainstream that you have nu-fans that started playing Metroid with MP3 on the Wii or even later.

All anybody wanted was AT MOST a 2.5D game in the vein of Fusion or Zero Mission. Hell even a fucking sequel to Fusion even if the story is forced.

Have you played AM2R? It's fucking great. Just look at everything we have seen of the 3ds remake. Looks bad. The graphics are terrible, the gameplay looks weak and shitty. If you haven't played AM2R, just watch any video of it. Looks amazing, because it was. Sure it needed just a tad more polish, but overall a VERY solid metroid game.

I have a feeling that most of the people who hate/won't buy Metroid: Samus Returns are a vocal minority and some of them are probably just shitposting for fun and not serious.
>>
>>386466161
Instead of Samus Returns, Nintendo should be in house developing Dread instead of remaking one of the weaker games in the series and outsourcing it to the people responsible for killing Castlevania.

Unfortunately I will be boycotting the series until Dread is confirmed.

>>386466352

Oh fuck you.
Salty UK guy here because thanks to fucking idiot scalpers and faggots wanting to make quick money, that legacy edition sold out just over an hour after it went up on the store.
I missed out because I was at work, while shitheads ate up the preorders because they don't have fucking jobs and sell shit like that on ebay.

£200 now on Ebay... TWO HUNDRED POUNDS.
I'm fucking livid I'll tell you that much.
I'm a collector and a pretty big Metroid fan, basically squealed like a baby when I saw it was available and BAM, sold out, 1 hour.
I don't know weather to be more angry at Nintendo for the shitty way they deal with this or the fucking scalpers who do what ever they can to get multiple copies and instantly put them on ebay for 4x the price the fucking leech shit head pisshole faggots.

Though if any of you guys managed to legit get one pre ordered I'm happy for you. It looks great.

AM2R exists to sate the need for it at the moment and everyone knows what M2 is about. The only discussion to have will be post launch of the game if it ends up playing poorly but the demo videos dont make it appear to. Itll be a solid 8.5-10 or higher.

This. Actually one of my favorite games that year, and I still replay it ever now and then. LoS2 was super trash, though. MoF was okay.

Samus Returns should be pretty good with Nintendo's oversight.

>>386467681
Except the demo is not the full game and is actually not indicative of the whole thing. I thought the same thing as you and almost didn't buy it, but I had disposable income and wanted something new. It doesn't even have the magic system, which is like the whole point of the game's combat system. It was a weird choice for a demo.
