Alright, ya whiners. Ya finally got your wish. There's a new Metroid Prime that Nintendo will release.... someday. Zero Suit Samus DLC most likely to follow.

"For today's E3, we're going to be focusing on games coming out in 2017"


"Except Metroid Prime 4 and Pokemon RPG Switch, now be quiet already".


Not an announcement that lights me on fire, but happy for those here that have been thirsty for a real Metroid game for some time now.

Probably considering the Federation Force ending continuous with what Prime 3's ending began.  Which means Sylux will play a huge role since he's in the ending for both games and Federation Force ends with him unleashing  Metriods at some facility.

If the story relies on me being familiar with Federation Force then I, and 90% of the Metroid fanbase, are going to be pretty fucking confused.  I suggest they have a prologue cut scene to bring everyone up to speed.

I am tenatively excited.  I don't know the dev, don't know what the gameplay will be like, don't even know what the game looks like.  So I'm happy that Metroid isn't dead but this is kind of like when they announce a new Star Fox game.  Is this going to be Metroid in a manner that I actually enjoy?  I want something that actually has Metroidvania style gameplay and isn't some linear action game or full-on FPS.  And I want normal controls as an option!  Metroid Prime 3 was a physical grind for me to be aiming with my arms the whole time.

While it's nice that Nintendo is revisiting Metroid, this announcement is literally a logo and "Hey, we're working on a thing." I'll get excited when Nintendo shows more.

I actually hope this is true, because it means the game should be pretty different from the first three. I wouldn't want the exact same formula again.

This reminds me of the Wii U at E3 2013, where Nintendo "fired off all its vaporware cannons" as people said back then.

Agreed! :) The previous Prime games were very good, so it'll be a high bar to clear, but yeah I wouldn't mind seeing Retro do something different or original. In any case, I'm very glad we're getting not one but TWO new Metroid titles, fingers crossed they'll be good too.

I'm very happy this game exists.  I won't be excited until I see a real trailer, but I am happy.

Continuing from MP3 on Wii, they're really going to take advantage of the improved motion control in the joy cons. Opening doorknobs and twisting gears and sipping hot alien tea will be soooo much more intuitive now.

It's so Nintendo that it's just a logo. At this point I got more done on a Metriod game. You would think they would have been working on this game since 3 years ago and have something significant to show. Although you could probably find posts off me saying something similar then.

When they plan games they really always seem to be in a bind with game droughts. Hopefully this'll improve when the ds line dies.

Nintendo probably does have more to show. It just didn't. And obviously, the point of this is unbridled hype. I still hate when companies pull that nonsense.

At least Metroid: Samus Returns looks awesome. Hopefully, MercurySteam pulled a Mirror of Fate and developed the game in HD and ported to 3DS. I'd much rather place this on Switch.

Surprise, we actually have something to show for..... 3DS.  I hope they have HD assets and eventually port it to Switch because I'm not buying a 3ds(maybe a 2ds). The game looks a lot better in gameplay than in the trailer too. It runs really smooth. If there was a Metroid theme 2ds with a pack in and it was a good price I would buy it in a hurry.

I am glad to see Retro not working on the game, as others have said I want to see them do something different. It is odd though that it has been so long since we heard about a game from them though, it has been over 3 years since Tropical Freeze.

I think it's safe to say that whatever Retro is cooking up won't be ready to roll until the late fall/holiday period of 2018, and thus probably won't see the light of day until next year's E3, or at best teased during a spring direct. I wouldn't expect Prime 4 until holiday 2019 at the earliest.

If Nintendo only showed the Metroid II remake there would be an uproar like no other. This Prime 4 announcement was specifically for damage control. Otherwise people would be losing their ship complaining that Nintendo only has remake coming and only for the 3DS.


I don't want FP Metroid anymore. i hope they can surprise me.
