Metroid Prime 4: Beyond (2025)

[the_FUTURE]

fukk giving them props they kept up this trash trend of announcing a game years and years from release. If your game comes out in 2021 stop teasing the shyt in 2017

the game was in dev for 2 years before teased and they had it in mind to be released this year. looked at it close to final product and couldn't run with it. They didn't take the Atlus/Sony/Square route and just have a blueprint rough draft for the game and then tease it, the game was being worked on for a minute.

Nah, it was only in development for a few months before that teaser. The LinkedIn that was tied to the developer only went back to Jan. 2017. They had just started.

They got the right developers for the job, and a surprising move of transparency from them here

 

[Microfracture]

You are absolutely correct, developing games is easy and they don't run into problems during development at all, fukk them and their mishaps.

Its Metroid Prime you can announce it 3 months ahead of release and still do the same numbers instead of saying "Its half done, heres the teaser".

Except Nintendo almost never announce games more than year away from release. Metroid was the exception, probably because geeks wouldn't shut the fukk up asking about when they're releasing a new Metroid.

I was going by what I saw someone post for a IP FPS action adventure, that didn't go back to 2015, but only 2016. that Bandai was working along with some other exclusive for Switch.

If the game really did just start in dev the year it was teased, I can't imagine how people would have thought it would be coming this year then.

Silver lining: This news means there's a very high chance for Nintendo to release a Metroid Prime Remaster collection for the Switch to take it's place.

Or better yet a new 2D Metroid game for the Switch.

Spawnwave reminded me of that rumored Star Fox game. And it could be finished now so retro is free to handle the Metroid game as it should be...

man if that Starfox racing game is real.

More news coming out is that the development was in different countries (lines up with what we heard about this game being developed by Bandai Namco Singapore and Bandai Namco Japan) and they couldn't get on the same page.
Retro apparently devloped a demo on their own and pitched it to Nintendo to take over and restart the project and Nintendo approved.
That tells me if they were willing to make a pitch that the game they we're working on priro (Star Fox GP supposedly) is nearly finished and will release soon

Man. This is like the only thing preventing me from tossing my Wii U. Lol

I think a straight up Super Mario Maker 2 is more likely.

It'll probably be the launch title for the updated switch now


As an adult, game delays don't hurt anymore

im in the same boat, aint got enough time for games so i can wait. shyt i waited 10 years for FFXV and 13 years for Kingdom Hearts 3. only exception is pokemon but that shyts more than just a video game to me.
