Metroid Dread

In the latest Podcast from IGN.com, Nintendo DS editor Craig Harris was asked about the status of Metroid Dread. He responded saying that the game was too early to show previously [at E3 2005] and that it could be shown this year.

That's from trusty ol' N-Sider.
I just thought I'd post this tid bit, as I didn't see it anywhere else, and it is certainly welcome news. I myself am hoping for a 2-D with 3-D graphics game.
IceCold:
Mario, Zelda and Metroid too? Wow..
I remember Craig saying before also that it was still in development when there were rumours that it was cancelled.
TrueNerd:
That would be phenomenal. Screw these non-Metroid Metroid games! I don't care if both the pinball and FPS versions of Metroid are fun, I WANT REAL METROID! I want another 2D Metroid game that has effecient controls like Fusion/Zero Mission (does everything Super Metroid does with less buttons) and I want the scope/size of Super Metroid and I don't want my hand held throughout the game like Fusion and Zero Mission did and how Super Metroid DIDN'T. Screw you Adam! Screw you Chozo Statues! AND, I want it to be a true sequel. Metroid 5. Enough of this "inbetween Metroid 1 and 2" garbage.
And that, my friends, is how you make the best game ever.

Its good to hear that the game might be actually, you know, real. I bought recently Zero Mission and Im having a blast with it, and Im all for a new 2D metroid, but I personally love the cube Metroid games, and Im sad that the iteration of prime for the DS was a multiplayer spinoff, because we might never see a 3D real metroid game for the DS, and is a shame because the DS offers such incredible controls for first person perspective.

"I myself am hoping for a 2-D with 3-D graphics game."
NO! Damn it! I HATE the way that looks. Worst of both worlds.
Anyway I'm happy this game hasn't been canned. 2D Metroid is one of the greatest game "formulas" in existance and I wouldn't want it to die just yet. There's something about 2D Metroid that just feels right and even Castlevania can't quite recreate it.
