Wow, I smell some serious BS.

Spoiler

(you can prove you're not lying by PMing me what the game is)

 

[Darryl]

i am the most trusthworthy person to PM, obviously

 

[MagiusNecros]

You can trust the GILGAMESH FAN KING to keep his word if you share the secrets you don't really have.

Honestly. HONESTLY.

 

[Wishmaster92]

I sense the 100 year old gamer among us.....

 

[Neiteio]

C'mon Bryan, Moffitt hired me to drag out the suspense. You're not helping. :-\

 

[EmCeeGramr]

Somebody photoshop her hair black and put glasses on her please for the love of god!

IIRC, Other M's concept art showed that at least one point they considered Samus with short black hair.

I wish they had so we could I would have further proof that Other M has nothing to do with Metroid.

 

[Neon_Icarus]

Dat Other M Samus (character model).

Her expressions mostly.

Please elaborate. She isn't even remotely loli if that's what you are suggesting.

Probably means most female protags are late teens and always questionably beautiful. Ergo always look the same and cater to certain people.

 

[Oersted]

Likely. Atleast some friggin pics.

If it was any other company? Sure.

Because Nintendo? Maybe.

The Last Guardian won´t protect this post.

 

[DaBoss]

It's...

Sources told me it's...

Spoiler

a game!

Year of Luigi. Duh.

 

[Oersted]

Btw, is such a behaviour bannable? Not demanding, it not at all, just curious.

 

[bomblord]

Someone needs to make a thread for E3 hyperbole I love it but it gets distracting when it derails a topic.

 

[DaBoss]

Who is Flipnote Iwata?

And who is Lego Iwata?

Tell us your secrets!

 

[Tadale]

We won't see it. They're delaying it so it can go multiplatform.

EDIT: People aren't getting my subtle Rayman poke.

 

[Meelow]

Are you someone who knows inside info or are you just assuming?

 

[BY2K]

That doesn't make any sense.

 

[MagiusNecros]

Wii U and 3DS? Wow.

 

[FlyFaster]

Retros game is the single most important reveal that I am waiting for.

Please be a new Metroid.

Holy shit, year of the Neo Geo Pocket.

 

[Volotaire]

Wii U and 3DS? Wow.

Metroid Dread and MP4 connect in some fashion. Believe.

 

[nkarafo]

But is Retro as capable as before? With so many people that have left?

 

[MagiusNecros]

I can still hope.

 

[Volotaire]

New members have joined from virgil, ID software, Naughty Dog and others. I would say so.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

But is Retro as capable as before? With so many people that have left?

Some old talent left mixed with new talent that come from successful games mixed with knowing the system earlier than about anyone mixed with Nintendo's help...

I'm more excited about Retro today than I was in the Prime age or at least JUST as excited.

 

[Tadale]

But is Retro as capable as before? With so many people that have left?

Donkey Kong was a ton of fun. I don't think they've ever had a miss.

 

[FlyFaster]

I can still hope.

hell ya. 2D or 3D doesn't matter to me. Both are great. I just want it on Wii U not 3DS.

Hopefully we'll get a badass classic style 2D game that revolutionizes the genre just like Super Metroid did back in the day.

Then we get a 3D metroid that blows away the Prime games.

But is Retro as capable as before? With so many people that have left?

I hope so. I've thought about this too. I think they can.


also, it could be a hybrid 2d/3d game, if anyone could pull it off it'd be Retro/Nintendo working together. I honestly think if it's done right it could change the shape of action games forever.


edit: hopefully they keep the "difficulty" intact, not too much handholding. We live in the age of the internet and there is also Miiverse. devs should take that into account and make games harder because people are just going to look things up anyway.

 

[Moxx19]

I think the game designers who weren't seniors will rise to the challenge. Who knows? Maybe they'll be even better.

 

[zroid]

That doesn't make any sense.

It will once Nintendo goes third party!

 

[MagiusNecros]

It will once Nintendo goes third party!

Nonsense. Nintendo will be the first to go 4th party.

 

[Call Me Maybe]

Yes.

 

[fredrancour]

Nonsense. Nintendo will be the first to go 4th party.

So if first part is console maker, second party is a subsidiary, and third party is someone not affiliated with a console, we are getting farther away from consoles as the degree goes up. So fourth party is... pc only? not console related at all?

4th party. The Nintendo party.

Fuck it. Nintendo will go Mario Party.

It's a circle. Fourth party actually owns the first party.
Nintendo will end up owning Sony and Microsoft.

 

[DaBoss]

I raise you, they will go Googolth-Party.

Nintendo X Sony X Microsoft

Confirmed!

It's where they make a game and release it but it doesn't work on any known system.

That's a relief, those are talented people coming from talented games.

Super Halo All Stars Battle Brawl

 

[DaBoss]

The games are so talented that they build themselves and you don't even need to play them to play it.

In nintendo land, game plays you?

 

[ElectricKaibutsu]

I hope so.
I've also got a horrible feeling that it's gonna be a massive waste of Retro's talent and something that nobody asked for.
EDIT: No longer a junior! Wahoo!

Hey, congrats

 

[Yonafunu]

And I've seen people bandy about some alleged comment by them that they're "working on what everyone wants them to make." What's the context of this?

I think that quote came from Nintendo themselves. I'm at the point where anything less than a new Metroid game from will be a disappointment.

That quote actually came from Paul Gale, so I'm not sure why everyone keeps bringing it up. It's BS (probably).

Retro Studios is hot off a four game win streak thanks to Donkey Kong Country Returns and the Metroid Prime trilogy, but according to them, what they’re working on for Wii’s successor is “a project everyone wants us to do”.

[MagiusNecros]

I don't know what project would be something everyone wants to be done.
