I still can't figure out if it's 3D or 2D! Different people say different things!

Yeah I've heard both, I thought it looked 3D but we'll see. Regardless it had a great teaser. Personally I am a fan of the more fleshed out world of Metroid.

3d, 2d whatever it looks amazing and totally unique. Huge Win for Nintendo on that. Never expected this.

It was indescribable. Some looked a bit like the SSBM intro

Noo. It's 3d. I think your watched the trailer wrong

That commander guy called her Lady, notice that? That must be the guy who was refered to her as lady in Fusion.

Team Ninja? Is this rogue Team Ninja with Itagaki or is it Tecmo "No Fatal Frame For you" Team Ninja?

Dirk Temporo · « **Reply #8 on:** June 02, 2009, 01:43:41 PM »

I hear it's 2D and 3D.

If its the later, I'm sure Nintendo is not happy with them right now.
Team Ninja did Fatal Frame IV?

It's multi-perspective.

There's corridor running like Crash Bandicoot, enemies can surround your for a 2D sidescroller situation (makes sense if you flip the camera away from the corridor perspective), and there's 3D arena boss combat.

Tecmo + Grasshopper did Fatal Frame 4.

Looks exactly like Ninja Gaiden with Samus. Count me among the skeptical, but hopeful.

Holy crap at the trailer!

Still, some animation and models look kind of bad, but I hope is just the youtube quality.

I am interested, and I love any game that provides more back story to the metroid universe, but I don't see how multiple perspectives are compatible with the metroid gameplay, I'll wait and see.

Screw the haters, I was blown away and I am so looking forward to the game.

That was the best trailer I've ever seen.

I liked how at the beginning you had no idea what game it was. Made for some great suspense.

Caterkiller · « **Reply #17 on:** June 02, 2009, 02:00:47 PM »

Now the first shot with Samus surrounded by those flying insects looks very 2D, but if you look carefully you can see her shooting them not just from left to right but in the back ground as well. My only complaint is her speed boost running animation, ash she smashes through the ice. Make her run nice like in smash.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #18 on:** June 02, 2009, 02:01:14 PM »

That was a great trailer.

Follow-up: Everyone freaks out when they change the way you play Metroid, because it was originally a 2D side-scroller, well guess what - so was just about every game that came out before 1993. 2D can be done very well, as Demon Blade shows, and other games like Lost Winds, etc, but it's time to accept the fact that 3D is here to stay, and it appeals to a much larger audience than 2D does.

Gawd that was PAINFUL

Caterkiller · « **Reply #21 on:** June 02, 2009, 02:05:02 PM »

I hope that other Samus doesn't mean we are in store for another Dark Samus clone thing.

Anyone have a link to a high quality trailer?

The best part about this announcement is that it makes that wanna be metroid Epic game seem like a very poor substitute for the real thing.

Looks like MS wasn't the only one stepping up to the table a year late.

broodwars · « **Reply #24 on:** June 02, 2009, 02:20:34 PM »

I really don't know what to think of this one. It looks like Ninja Gaiden only covered in Metroid paint. It's flashy and exciting (and seeing more of the Metroid universe as a whole is always welcome), but I'm very skeptical of this one. It just doesn't look like a Metroid game at all.
