This game angers me. Metroid games have always been about isolation. Retro Studios did an amazing job keeping that in mind when the series went 3D, but I feel like this is going to make Metroid just like every other action game out there, but people will buy it because it's made by Nintendo. I highly doubt that there will be any puzzle element what so ever, which will also anger me.

Um, how can you tell that based on a teaser with about 8 seconds of gameplay  doodthing;
It looks pretty cool to me, kinda like what they did with Punch Out, but Metroid.

honesty i think it will be sub-par compared to other metroid games, but at least it will explain the story a little better

1. There are other characters
2. Samus Talks
3. It looks like Ninja Gaiden with a Metroid Skin

There's been other characters in tons of metroid games
you have a point there, but i don't think that should effect the game too much

You can't ignore the fact that it looks like an action game instead of an adventure game, which makes metroid just like any other action game.

it's made by team ninja. it's a third-person action game. of course it's going to be like ninja gaiden

I'm happy it's not by Retro.

No.

It will pull a Capcom and set it back to Square one by rerwriting plotholes which never existed in the first place in order to GET this fancy new look. That, and now she's more azn than ever to match the Dramaction bullshit of games like Ninja gaiden, or NNN, or DMC, with the same game mechanics.

We're seeing the same thing, with oddly familiar look.

The story won't improve, Team Ninja doesn't care for story.

I think it looks like fun.

Placebo Headwound

It doesn't look bad.

I mean, it's still possible to have an action-filled Metroid game and still have plenty of exploration involved.

I am cautiously optimistic. baddood;

Claquesous

Looks awesome to me. Not gonna be butthurt about the how it lacks whatever makes Metroid, Metroid, or whatever excuse, because you can't tell anything from a trailer.

Can't find the whole interview, I think it was on Kotaku or something, but

"We want to try and take the best of both. As you progress through the game, there will be more action-oriented, faster-paced sequences. But then you'll have your careful, exploratory parts of the story as well."
