Time we spead this fanmade classic peeps. This game deserves to be played by every metroid fan! The team did such a great job with this remake if Nintendo should do anything they should make it official. Its that good!
It will probably be removed under that name.
I really wonder how Mother 4 (fan made) manage to still exist.
This one, for one - it's been in development for 7 years, the demo's been available for 3 years. Also a bazillion Super Metroid hacks, there's a PC Mario World editor with lots of levels, Mother 4...Aside from Project M, what fan project has Nintendo ever let slide?
Wait. The game is still up... I am confused?
Didn't I see a bunch of people in the other thread saying they won't get a DMCA since nothing was for sale?
OH COME THE FUCK ON
Why even bother it's too late anyway! The game is out there, you can't stop it!
I understand why they did this. This Remake, especially now at the 30th birthday of Metroid makes Nintendo seem really incompetent in how they've treated the franchise.
Wait. The game is still up... I am confused?
I hope the Streisand effect comes into play and more people are made aware of/find a way to play it.
Metroid Database is probably the "biggest" Metroid fansite. Biggest is relative, of course, since it's such a niche series!I just downloaded the torrent to check: http://metroid2remake.blogspot.com/
It's still up.
Metroid database != am2r site?
Edit: I guess no one reads fourth post, huh?
Who is metroid database? They're not the AM2R site, so who are they?

I know everyone is all "Boo Nintendo!" over this, but why wait until it was already out for a day? They knew it was being released for how long? Does anyone else feel like this is something that they have to do for Copyright protection reasons? Why else would they wait until it had already been spread around before having it shut down?
The site mentioned in the first post isn't actually the site of the Metroid 2 remake project.

Someone posts some quotes from that other thread.
"Ummm, Nintendo doesn't take down these files because its free!! Durp da derp derp!"
Itoi also said he wanted someone else to make a "Mother 4", wait and see but I doubt it'll be taken down.Nintendo leaves most fan projects like this one alone but that honestly might be because they're under the radar. This got a bit noisier.

They are but the fans don't want it

Lol.
how?
were the prime games mega sellers? makes it financial sense to make a new big budget metroid? does retro even want to make one?

Preach!Fuck Nintendo. This is 1000x better than anything they've done with Metroid this decade.

The first game broke 2 millions, but the 2nd one wasn't even a million seller, and Metroid Prime 3 stalled around 1.31 millions. Metroid Prime 1 is the best selling Metroid game.
Coming soon. Metroid Maker
Damn they took it down before the Linux version came out? Should have just stuck it on a torrent with no site man
The fact that it's still up but people need to rush in and post without reading what was posted before is straight up hilarious.Reading this OP is pretty funny now.
