Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, overview trailer (Switch 2)

That's true, but "any publicity is good publicity" doesn't often hold true in gaming. Concord's infamy didn't do it any favors, for example. Obviously, we'll see how it goes before too long, but I can't imagine controversy being their intended strategy.
Concord was a new franchise with zero fanbase and received a 62 in MC... While the Prime series is a niche franchise, the fans knows that are going to receive a top quality game... Still a valid comparison, but not a good one.

Fine, substitute with Ass Creed Shadows, Veilguard, or whatever other western AAA that's shot themselves in the foot for no good reason in the last couple of years.

Those are popular franchises, like i said Metroid is a niche franchise that needs more exposure, especially with the younger audience and Myles Mackenzie is doing exactly that.

This reminds of me the old clip where George Lucas talks about creating Jar Jar Binks to appeal to his kids.

nah, we all know he created him to have that twist that he is a sith towards the end of episode 2 or beginning of episode 3.
WE KNOW THE TRUTH!

I would really like to see what this game looked like prior to Retro taking over in 2019. What did Nintendo not like? Did they see the success of BoTW and say Metroid needs to appeal to a larger audience?
The motorcycle bit in a desolate landscape, AI escort missions with cringey dialogue and enemy ai that appears to be really dated.
I am no longer a day one buyer, and will be eagerly waiting for reviews.

At ~$100 million, being one of Nintendos most expensive titles. I'm just not seeing it. Development hell is expensive.
