[QUOTE="Black_Knight_00"]It was good till it lasted, the revered Metroid Prime franchise has come to a close and 'another Metroid' has surfaced. Say goodbie to the amazing Retro Studios and say hello to... Team Ninja...
Are they serious? Team Ninja working on Metroid...? The guys who, in 13 years of activity only worked on rehashes of two games: the fighting game Dead or Alive (including its softcore porn spinoff Xtreme Volleyball) and five million versions of Ninja Gaiden, all best known for their punishing hair-pulling difficulty. This new Metroid did look like Ninja Gaiden in many ways, although it appears to blend platforming a la Metal Slug with third person action.
It may be good, it may be not. I sure didn't see the new developer as good choice. They don't fit the role.

I was shocked when I saw it and I just completely agree with you, I cannot believe of all companies to touch one of my fav since back in the day its Team Ninja...that was a slap in the face....a real harsh blow...I think it will still be good but its just a damn change from the Metroid I knew and love. If it turns out to be a flop I can asure you I will write that letter I sometime goes on about in forums the one where I chuck a brick from my house to Nint. HQ with a letter attached saying "where the **** did it all go wrong Nintendo?." Seriously Nintendo has actually made me feel like everyone should drop dead that way they won't try to please everyone....of all the suprises Nint. could have given that was one of the worst it was more a bloody shock.have you noticed that you're more or less the only one complaining about a NEW metroid?
but it's not just metroid. you complain about nintendo all the time in your other posts/threads. for some reason you can't even get past ocarina of time. get over it. it's a 9-year-old game that's been constantly improved on since. it's not even that revolutionary today. you should just move on.
and you talk about metroid as if it's your daughter or your lover that some other guy 'touched', and now...she's been irrevocably corrupted. what are you talking about? you're always complaining, but you have no solid reasoning to back it up.
i don't think you're a true metroid fan anyway, otherwise you'd make a more sensible argument and talk a little bit about why you actually like the series.
it's not that it isn't your right to complain, but you don't seem to have reason to. i know metroid has always been about intense action, and i'm confident they hired the best people for the job. don't always eat up what hacks say about metroid's only claim to fame being the so-called "lonliness". please. i find games like tomb raider and ico lonlier. play some old-school metroid.
