Support NeoGAF

[cabbage5k2]

Anybody think we'll see Metroid Prime 4 at the game awards or is it still aways off?

Unless Nintendo wants to do a trailer with no real footage, no way. The game just restarted development this year.

Something like BotW 2, though? I could see it. Nintendo’s been premiering stuff at The Game Awards for quite some time now.

Current rumors have it that that's what going to happen, as they'll use the gamer awards to begin a year long advertisement campaign
for a fall release of the game. Mind, this supposedly comes from King Zell and I haven't read his original post about it.

I forgot about this another JRPG, im really really looking forward too

Unfortunately, I probably won't be able to buy this game. There's just no way the game isn't heavily censored in the west :/

lol scantily clad anime women are really a dealbreaker for you, eh? This is about the second time you’ve mentioned it in the thread

He probably doesn't want to support censorship. I'm kind of in the same boat if it gets does get censored.

Same, in general. Scantily-clad women aren’t my thing, obviously, but I do want artistic expression of all types to exist, and for all kinds of fans to get the games they want.

I’m glad people are speaking out against censorship and showing that many audiences don’t want this.

I don't care one iota about the specific content. I care about developers being able create what they want and I care about getting the original vision of the game and not something that was changed to satisfy authoritarian puritans.

That doesn't only go for sexual content btw, although I find that most frustrating, because sex and sexy designs absolutely have their place in regular video games, it's nothing to giggle about like a 13 yo virgin or to condemn like a religious fanatic. It's mostly sexy designs, we have those in all of media, stop enforcing special rules for games.

Ofc, there's hope nothing will be censored in this game. But I'm doubtful

Actually Nintendo has been pretty good with censorship , it’s more of a publisher thing like with TMS#FE Encore .
Its not like Nintendo is directing everyone to take make things tamer .

Wii U was a pretty good console in terms of software.

And it's still miles ahead of Switch what comes to Virtual Console stuff.
I'm not going to get rid of my Wii U because I have 110 Virtual Console games right there available to play anytime I want. Plus on the Wii Mode I have 27 VC games on top of that.

yeah I am really disappointed we haven’t gotten anymore snes games yet

 

[ROMhack]

Lack of SNES games is killer tbh. Water they doing/?/?

Weren't we supposed to see a new switch Monster Hunter at some point as well?

What happened with VC was outrageous.
The fact that you can't play the 110 games that you purchased on Switch is pretty unfair and would put me off buying Nintendo games digitally.

Had that kind of "backward compatibility" been possible, I would've bought a Switch immediately.
I still haven't got myself a Switch and I currently have no plans to get one.
I'm glad that I at least can play those games as long as my system still works. With Switch whatever old NES or SNES games you can play are for you to play only if you continue subscribing. Sure, it doesn't cost much but I'd rather pay a bit more and have the ability to play the games forever than pay less and get to play only for a timed period. VC on Switch really was a disappointment, and to some extent the Switch itself was a disappointment... And that comes from someone who loved Wii, 3DS and Wii U and still defends all of them.

Switch has a good amount of other old games though, but a lot of them are also on Steam, so I'm not compelled to get a switch for them either.

2D Metroid and More Trilogy Rumors from Nate Drake and Leaky Panda (?)

 

[Agent_4Seven]

Why on earth would they be making Super Metroid remake (let alone Fusion / Zero Mission)? Those game are timeless and don't need remakes at all. I'd much rather play completely new 2D game.

Same. Can you even make Super Metroid better? That game is as evocative today as it was the day of release, and the game design is regularly acknowledged as the peak of gaming.

It’s not like Metroid or Metroid 2, where there was tons of room for improvement and change.

I’d much rather have a new 2D Metroid. The fact that I was a kid twenty years ago, looking forward to what they set up for Metroid V, and we still haven’t got it, is insane.

For someone new to Metroid would the prime trilogy be the best place to start?

 

[StormCell]

They should at least bring Samus Returns to Switch before working on a Super Metroid remake in the same style.

[Porcile]

Metroid Prime 1
Super Metroid
Zero Mission

Whatever order you play them is fine.

 

[Lionel Richie]

Metroid Prime 1
Super Metroid
Zero Mission

I would play Super Metroid first because it feels a bit stiff when compared to Zero Mission. I would also play it before Prime because Prime's design hit you harder when you have previous experience with the series.

So I'd go Super, then Zero Mission, then Fusion and then Prime.

 

[-Arcadia-]

For someone new to Metroid would the prime trilogy be the best place to start?

That’s probably a matter of some debate.

I feel like Prime is a really good starting place, because it encapsulates so much of what Metroid is, is in contention with Super for the best game in the series, and still has a pretty modern presentation, where the entire world of Metroid comes to life in incredible detail.

It’s also a little friendlier with its general hints on where to go, but not too friendly, just enough to give you the essence of Metroid, without the frustration to a newcomer. Prime can kind of give you the ‘sea legs’ to enjoy the rest of the series.

For what it’s worth, Prime and Fusion were my first Metroid games (same day release, and it was amazing), and I’ve been a mega-fan of the series ever since.

Getting to be that time of year again, this guy has gotten a couple things right in the past. Though I’ll have to dig up what they were

Finally the Retro developed Star Fox adventure / racing game that was rumoured for almost a year?

No Mario Kart 9 on Switch is disapointing yet expected considering MK8D will probably sell 30 million units. MK9 is also the perfect game to keep for the launch of the next gen Switch.

Sorry for dp.

it seemed so weird that was the biggest rumor and we never saw anything about it. I’m excited to see what they have

Or notice how new is in quotation marks ? Return of F-Zero?

Anyone else still love Brain Age?

We’re pretty close to that coming out, and I’m looking forward to it. The included official stylus (so hopefully a little nicer/better) will be a nice bonus as well — I’m actually holding off on Mario Maker just for that reason.

I didn’t play the old brain age but I’m definitely picking this one up I’ve heard a lot of good things, I kinda fell off with Nintendo after the gamecube era and only picked up their handhelds for Pokémon and rpgs: however this switch is a fantastic system and has made me try a lot of things I never would have before

My backlog is so huge right now... my priorities are so out of whack I have 62 switch games and I have beat about 4. The worst part is I keep buying lengthy RPG's as well

I just beat the 4th gym and I keep changing my team in Pokemon so I go back and re level etc, I really enjoy most of the new mons.
