Starfox Wii U, out before Zelda Wii U

[reeper]

Nioce. Wonder if they'll fuck it up again, seems like they should go the classic route.

i have absolutely no hope for this game

can't wait to breathe a dejected sigh upon seeing that mid-low 70s score on metacritic

[TooB]

what worries me, is that even if they decide to go back to it's roots, and make just a better SF64, the fact that they want to focus so much on the gamepads gyroscope and motion blah blah shit is what may hurt it completely

It's true.

Can we just have Metroid Prime 4

As in sales wise? How it looks on their image as a family friendly company? I don't understand

because miyamoto didn't come up with it. He's jealous.

as in they have no idea what to do with the franchise, and sales are definitely a part of it

they tried catering to their core fanbase only to receive weak and ever-waning sales from one game to the next, then they tried to take it in an entirely new direction gameplay and narrative-wise with other m and found it universally panned (rightfully so (and with still no improvement in sales))

now on top of weak sales the series has the piss poor reputation of its most recent entry to undo, and so they're just going to sit on it until they think they can satisfy everybody, which considering the circumstances they might never be able to do

for now, it's far more cost effective to pump out another mario game, which is both a third the cost to develop if they recycle their assets yet again and is guaranteed to get positive reception and at least triple the sales of any metroid

I'm not sure how much influence Nintendo had on Metroid Prime 1-3, which is why they turned out so well. Metroid Prime Hunters and Other M are so forgettable. The problem in both of the games is the extremely small areas without enough well developed backtracking and too much focus on shooting, which is quite frustrating in each due to the gimmicky controls.

If they get Retro studios back on to the next Metroid game, and keep it similar to the Prime trilogy, I'm sure something well tuned can be created.

Starfox is a harder one to speak for, there are only 2 great games in the series, with all the recent titles being meh. Starfox's original mechanics are so dated, they'd have to try out something fast paced and get the feeling of the game down perfectly. I do think this game may be rushed since we've hardly heard anything but it's coming out so soon.

zelda's delay means they can (and probably will) delay this without breaking their promise of it being out before zelda
