Who was working on this anyway? If it was Intelligent Systems, maybe they scrapped the project and started working on the recently revealed Wario Land game instead. Sad to see it go if that's the case.

It might be, but I very much doubt N-Next know anything.
We haven't seen Zelda yet which we knew about a hell of a long time before Dread and the same goes for Pokemon. We'll have to wait and see, but at the moment I'll side with not showing it because it'd be pretty stupid before Hunters is out.

The sources are bullshit. The game won't show its face again until E3 after Metroid Prime Hunters and Pinball are released.
Intelligent Ststems has nothing to do with the title. Sakamoto at EAD should be doing it.

It will be shown at E3 2006, so I don't think it was cancelled.
Release: Fall 2006
It just wasn't ready for this year. They wanted to show it this year, but then MP:H was delayed. They didn't want people to be confused.
<- My speculation.

Suzac develops Wario Thief as far as I know.

I bet it wasn't shown at E3 just because they were already showing three other Metroid games (Pinball, Huntesr and Prime 3 teaser).

I'm anxious for Metroid Dread, I loved Metroid Fusion.

I don't! As much as I love Super Metroid and I loved Zero Mission, why would you want a remake when we could get a new game?

Do you have any backup for this? I don't know either way, but calling sources bullshit without some support on the other side that the game exists is sort of weird...
what's been suggested here is what i assumed. show metroid dread after hunters and pinball, at e3 06. i can't imagine nintendo not making another 2d metroid game after the success of fusion.
with regards to wario thief it does look like suzak is developing it according to Game Watch.

I didn't really enjoy Fusion for a variety of reasons. I'm not sure what to expect from a sequel. MOTS?
Speaking of sequels, any idea if there's going to be a Metroid Prime 3, or if they're actually going to jump ahead in the timeline a bit? I didn't really like MP2 :/ It was far from a bad game, but the whole light/dark crap was gimmicky and annoying. I got sick of switching worlds less than half way through the game. Final suit looked great though

Why the hell would IntSys be working on this game?Zerodoppler said:
:lol I can't believe this article.
Even if the new Metroid in its current state was cancelled -- which AFAIK it's not -- Nintendo virtually always has a new Metroid project for handhelds going at any given time. It's one of their biggest properties here in the West. They're not going to just cancel it.

Fucking better be still on. Haven't heard anything about it in a long, long time though. If anything has happened... someone is going to die.
Sakamoto rocks. IntSys is probably in the pre production planning of FE: DS and maybe a Paper Mario title.

Please note: I never said it was cancelled, I just said I wouldn't put it past them if Hunters is as popular as Prime was.
If that happens, someone is going to pay. Dearly. *twitch*

This had better not be true.

They'll probably show if after Prime: Hunters is out.
I don't think they anticipated that Metroid Prime: Hunters would move into 2006, considering they had demos for it in 2004.
It'd be kinda weird if the game was finished and Nintendo was just sitting on it, waiting for the Hunters team to finish.

They did misspell "altogether" as two words. Plus, they misused "whom."MegaByte said:

I don't have any first hand information from the development team. I just have a good idea of what is going on with the development teams.
Remember that horrible looking "Metroid 4" that was revealed a few E3s ago, and at least 1 E3 early? It looked like a well animated GBC game running on the GBA. When it was ready, it was re-unveiled in fanstastic form as Metroid Fusion.
Metroid Dread was probably so freaking early that it really wasn't worth showing off, particularly when there are two other Metroid handheld titles to show off which are much further along.
