Nintendo Direct: new presentation announced for tomorrow

looking at this and star fox it seems Nintendo (for me at least) can't produce a cool scifi art style

everything looks basic like a mod rather then a fleshed out scifi art style

I think it's safe to say that 'Metroid Prime PR tour' hasn't gotten off to a great start.

It's just not what anyone ever wanted. Not now, not at conception, and when you add in the context of a dead series it just makes fans angry. No amount of 'I know metroid, guys!' or 'We worked so hard!' can overcome that.
 
Metroid = ISOLATION

How does the series producer not understand this basic concept?!!

Holy fuck is it an awful time to be a Nintendo fan. Fuuuuuck

I guess I understand the art style then, if this spent so many years in development for the DSi.

It seriously looks like a glammed-up N64 game.
Like if there'd been a gross-gen release between N64 and Gamecube.

Way too much time on this game.

I don't think this game is bad and I'll probably get it, but the no mainline Metroid on the Wii U makes it hard to swallow.

It's almost like a consolation prize.

I feel like games that have TF2-style multiplayer always present it as a new concept or act like the audience hasn't seen it many many times before.

Space Pirates and mentions of Samus Aran! Well boy howdy! I'm convinced. Time to place my preorder on multiple stores just in case they run out of stock in one of them! I'm so very very excited.

I mean all of this sounds sort of good in a vacuum. I bet it would be welcome similarly to Splatoon if the thought of Metroid didn't make everyone feel like they have a festering wound that can't be healed.

They got the message that they really fucked up Federation Force's initial reveal. This is them trying to salvage this the best way they can. When you have to explain the history of the developer and director/producer of the game and explain there will be hands on events you know you've screwed up greatly.
