Metroid Prime: Federation Force was announced at the Nintendo digital event on June 16, 2015. For almost a decade, long time Nintendo fans have been waiting for a true Metroid game. Metroid is one of Nintendo's most beloved and respected franchises spanning almost 30 years of legacy. The foundations of isolation, atmosphere and exploration in unknown planets are what made Metroid great. With the release of the Wii U and its greater technological capabilities thousands of fans were expecting a new and improved Metroid game. 

What we got however is a disgrace of a game with the name "Metroid" slapped on the title. It has no elements at all of what Metroid is about and its a disrespectful manner to old and new fans of the series of showing them that the Metroid franchise is not dead afterall. This is not the Metroid we asked Nintendo to make. We should let Nintendo know what we really think of the game and make them actually LISTEN to their fans for once. Help us stop this atrocity of a game from bearing the be

I want a new metroid too but this is stupid.

Edit: I made this thread cause I know this petition isn't gonna make anything happen.
 
wow i had no idea about this petition but thanks to you i see it and now i can sign it thanks neogaf user Leiru
 
Yeah - Let's petition to shut down Next Level Games too! How dare they make a game I don't want!


Really though, what is wrong with some people? Play through Super Metroid again and shut up already.
 
lol, the kneejerk reactions are out of control. I would have liked Next Level to work on something else too, but there's no reason to cancel a game already well into development.
 
The backlash Nintendo is getting from this and other games is amazing. They really f'd up this year with the phoned-in rehashorama they have going on.
 
I think it's ridiculous, but at the same time if this petition gets big, it'll help tell Nintendo that at the very least they need to fix problems with the game like the art style.
 
Even though this is not what I wanted from a new Metroid game, I'm pretty confident NLG will deliver something worth playing.

This game really isn't a rehash.
 
A petition going up isn't surprising and they're a dime a dozen. If someone hates something hard enough this'll happen. It's not like it's gonna affect anything. If you hate it then you should probably not feed them anymore.
 
When Devil May Cry 4 came to the 360, there was a petition to cancel it so the series would stay PlayStation exclusive. Apparently it's an insult to the fanbase for the Xbox to get a Devil May Cry game. Most of the signatures were something like "this is so stupid" and "lol".
 
Never seen this response to a Nintendo game before. But I suppose if people wish for something so hard, and get the exact opposite of that something, they are bound to be unhappy. They are allowed to voice that unhappiness.

I am okay with this spin-off existing. I'm not okay with this spin-off existing in a giant void free of good mainline Metroid games. This petition is stupid.
 
I signed it... not like it means anything. lol

if it makes anyone feel better, I put "Please make Metroid Dead" as the message. Hopefully that helps Nintendo to realize what we all actually want.
 
Ok, the announcement came like a kick to the balls to me and I feel like this is obnoxious. Do I want the game to outright not exist? Of course not, it looks pretty fun. It just shouldn't have the Metroid name for enemies that vaguely resemble those found in the series.
 
The game looks like shit and I would trade this for an actual Metroid game a thousand times over but this petition will do nothing even if it had a billion signatures.
