- Craig also played MadWorld
- It’s really awesome
- Beat-em-up, takes place behind you
- Kind of like a game show, be as brutal as you can
- Controls work very well - motion stuff is supplemental

That is great news.

Argh, I think someone just plunged a dagger straight through my fucking heart. We get Hunters and Pinball but no Metroid Dread? Fuck you Nintendo, seriously, fuck you.

:(

edit: I see I'm not the only one.

It's not like this is news, though... we already knew that the game existed as of May 2005, and I don't think anyone expected it to resurface after over 3 1/2 years with no further word on it.

Hopefully with Retro moving on, we can be left with the sweet memories of the GBA Metroids as the last games in the series.

With NST still around, who knows.

I know. All we had to go on until now was Game Informer's word. I was also sorta holding out home for a WiiWare game or something. Bah.

I think it's about time for my annual runthroughs of Fusion and Zero Mission on the Micro. :(

No, there have been numerous people to have backed that up. In fact Craig from IGN did the very same a few years ago. :/

I think he means "moving on to other, non-Metroid, projects."

Edit: Quick on the draw like the horse named McGraw from the cartoon, boom-sha-laka-laka boom.

I hate having to repeat this, but both Kohler and Parish have confirmed that it was on an official NOA list released prior to E3 2005.

No organized riot to bring Professor Layton 2 to the US? Second one needs a lot of localization, might require budget of full game - might not be cost-effective - some very specific Japanese puzzles

I swear Nintendo is like an abusive husband to its fans' battered wife. They go ahead and cancel a 2D metroid made ground-up for the DS for stupid reasons like "IP fatigue" or something equally asinine and force me to make do with IGAvanias... yet whenever they even so much as hint that Metroid is making a comeback, I'm right there on day one.

I freaking bought a DS for Metroid Prime: Hunters, then bought both GBA games, Pinball AND all three Prime games (before I even had the capacity of playing them), Nintendo! Why do you do this to me?

What utter bullshit. Layton 1 had the same "problem" that NOA managed to sort out just fine. Fucking christ, I still can't believe NOE is less functionally retarded than NOA now.

MadWorld

- It’s really awesome
- Controls work very well - motion stuff is supplemental
- Game has a great style - People say they can’t see what’s happening in screenshots - When it’s in motion, you can see everything contrasting
- Craig thinks it’s a great game

How do you know that Metroid Dread is a 2D sidecroller and not a rabid pet simulator
Click to expand...

I pretty much have to. The promise of another Super Metroid is what keeps me gaming.

EDIT: A rabid pet simulator would be kind of cool. I'm thinking a game where you're a space pirate doing all sorts of experiments on the creatures from the Metroid universe, exposing them to Beta rays, Phazon and the like and seeing what happens. Think the lab from I Am Legend, but with far less emphasis on the scientific method.

Madworld is developed by Platinum Games and published by Sega.

First, they laid off a PR branch. Secondly, they are only publishing Madworld. Platinum Games developed it.

Because Wii Music is a terrific game, and hopefully some positive word-of-mouth has helped kill some of the undeserved nasty buzz it carried throughout 2008.

Why would they? Their games have been successful both critically and commercially. If anything, Nintendo doesn't treat Retro well enough.

If anyone at SEGA was going to get a cut, chances are it'd be Secret Level, surely. Golden Axe bombed hard.

Renegade Kid has DS fever, basically. Won't show the Wii game until they're sick of DS development.

Well look at the bright side, if Metroid Dread wasn't a NCL game at least we never have to go down that path.
