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.
It looks badass
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
how so baddood;

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.

Retro did metroid well dipshit.
I think it looks like fun.
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;
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."

I just hope they don't make it anywhere near as hard as Ninja Gaiden. ;_;
So have we all decided to ignore the fact that team ninja was a part of development for Metroid Fusion and Zero Mission, and that their former head was Gumpei himself?
And that of course they would over-hype this because it's a casual's market?

Hey hey hey, now I didn't know about Team Ninja doing my two favorite games out of the last 10 years. I am now really really looking forward to this.
Sorry I got my facts mixed up.
Yes, Ninja Gaiden is doing with. They've never done a metroid.

I'm really just plagarizing from Outsider but that's ok.
So dun worry. Prime series worked otu fine too.
It looks a little... cartoony, in my opinion.
Oh well. I gave up on Nintendo after the Wii came out and I could never find one in stores. Tell me if this game makes the Metroid series any better or not. I doubt it will.

Which metroid hasn't been cartoony besides the prime series
i think it looks fucking awesome, who cares about story
Looks like it'll be good.
REMEMBER ME? akudood;
no i dont and if it takes place after super then my only idea is that maybe it's admiral dane reincarnated as a black man
his suit kinda reminds me of sylux from metroid prime: hunters, but not too much and he wasn't on very good terms with samus baddood;
yeah sylux already stole his stuff from the Gfeds so since this black man was all smiley happy it's probably not him. unless if sylux secretly has a crush on samus and he helps her when the Gfeds aren't looking
but that's not very probable

I'm happy it's not by Retro.
Retro said after MP3 came out that they weren't doing it anyway, so we already knew they weren't going to do it
also Retro did a beautiful job with the Prime series and you're dumb :|
