[dickroach]

This.

Donkey Kong 3D Canon

 

[J@hranimo]

No OP it's definitely From Software

 

[Hot Coldman]

Bethesda's support of the PS4 can only mean they're working on Killzone 5

 

[mavericktopgun]

Lol. Never.

 

[Bishop89]

I think sucker punch are making Metroid 4.

They're essentially done with Infamous.
They are working on an unannounced title.
Infamous has similar designs as Metroid, gaining more abilities
Sucker punch worked on sly trilogy which would fit right at home on a Nintendo console.

I think my math is sound.

 

[massoluk]

What if.... it is Capcom all along

 

[daninthemix]

Bethesda don't limit themselves to exclusives. Not enough earning potential.

 

[Cpt Lmao]

I'd rather it be Nintendo EAD. I'm not sure Bethesda and Prime are a good match.

 

[Fettbacke]

No.

Just No.

 

[Schrödinger's cat]

You're all wrong.

I'm developing Metroid Prime 4.

I'm nearly done adding the microtransactions. It's gonna be sweet.

 

[Ouija Luigi]

You know it would happen...

 

[Hesemonni]

I want what OP is smoking.

 

[120v]

spurious conjectures aside, i'd be totally down with an arkane or id developed metroid.

 

[Muskieratboi]

Arkane doing Prime? I have no earthly idea what a Metroid 0451 Game would be like... But then again I had no Earthly idea what Prime would be like when it came out.

So yeah, what the hell, right, I'd be fine with it.

 

[Tyraniboah]

Bethesda isn't working on Metroid Prime 4. Calling it now. (that was easy)

Seriously though, your reasoning doesn't add up at all. It's far more likely that Bethesda's unannounced title is the heavily rumored Game of Thrones. Besides, when Nintendo said a brand new studio is working on the game, that could be taken as a studio built from scratch. I think a partnership as big as one would be with Bethesda would have been announced at the time Metroid Prime 4 was. And after how poorly received the Team Ninja partnership was with Other M, I'd imagine Nintendo wants to do this next one in house.

 

[deriks]

Metroid Prime 4 - By MachineGames:
The Old Infection.

or

Metroid Prime 4 - By id Software:
Invasion on Earth

That I want. Specially id Software. But get out Bethesda.

 

[RoadHazard]

Uuuuuuh no thanks.

 

[TrutaS]

Arkane would be an absolute dream team to be working on Prime. Those guys are unmatched when it comes to level design - which is a major Metroid element.

 

[SmokedMeat]

Wait...when was Doom and Wolfenstein announced for Switch?

 

[Necro900]

Gonna be Metroid Jank 4, then

Wait...when was Doom and Wolfenstein announced for Switch?

Yesterday, during the Nintendo direct

 

[mocoworm]

I said it first, dont ever steal my post as a thread. Ok?

Show us your post, we'll decide

 

[Strings]

 

[Succinct Verbosity]

Bethesda have published the best first person games this generation with Doom, Prey, Wolfenstein and Dishonored. I would not be upset if they had a team on Prime 4, but O doubt it.

 

[The_Lump]

Calling it now. OP is high af.

 

[reelbigtink]

No thanks.

I'd rather my slow and atmospheric fps platformer not focus on fast action setpieces.

 

[Alienous]

Nothing about Bethesda gives me the indication that they'd take on a project for an IP they don't own.

 

[hotcyder]

I would actually love a Prime game done by Arkane.

.

 

[SomTervo]

Nintendo said it was a talented new team though?

Spoiler

Unless by Bethesda you mean Id/Arkane

Fuck... Arkane would actually be amazing.

I still think this is ridiculous and Bethesda's new game is Game of Thrones.

 

[Nugg]

3. Bethesda has said they are working on an unannounced game

Metroid Prime 4 is announced tho

 

[Kain-Nosgoth]

You're all wrong.

Miyamoto is working on Metroid Prime 4.

i can't choose which is worse

 

[Mdk7]

Id or Machine Games would be pretty sexy.
But I don't think it's happening, frankly.

 

[Pif]

My dream is that the BotW engine is being used for a semi-linear Metroid with huge maps.

 

[kromeo]

My dream is that the BotW engine is being used for a semi-linear Metroid with huge maps.

Sounds like the stuff of my nightmares

 

[Jonneh3003]

Don't we have a primary Metroid Prime 4 thread for speculation without evidence?

 

[superNESjoe]

Math? More like meth.

 

[Diprosalic]

That would be the biggest gaming monkey paw ever.


Unless it's Id.

 

[Bakercat]

"Samus, another client needs your help"

 

[fleshrender]

Please don't let this be true.

 

[eXistor]

I would trust Arkane with it.

 

[Revolutionary]

Nope

I would trust Arkane with it.

That's actually a really good call. Arkane are masters of level design, as Prey has proven.

 

[ec0ec0]

that's funny

 

[Kazuhira]

A Metroid Prime game by Arkane? oh god, that would be amazing.

 

[hidys]

No OP it's definitely From Software

It's actually Obsidian. I mean they have an unannounced game. The math checks out. WHAT ELSE COULD IT BE???

 

[nkarafo]

If its Arcane then im in.

 

[Zeel]

Doom was pretty good tho?. Maybe I should have said ID is doing metroid prime 4?

Actually yes, Doom was the closest FPS to Metroid Prime we've had in ages.
I can see this happening now.

 

[CHC]

I don't really like to participate in Nintendo fan fiction but if Arkane made a Metroid game there is virtually no way it would not be good.

 

[FelipeMGM]

Lets lay out some facts.


1. Nintendo says that RETRO is NOT doing metroid prime 4 but another studio is.

2. DOOM 2016 and Wolfenstein 2 are both coming to the switch.

3. Bethesda has said they are working on an unannounced game and no one knows what it is......

I think the math is there. Nintendo has gotten Bethesda to do Metroid Prime 4 with the ID tech 6 engine.

Maybe its ID not Bethesda.

1. Nintendo said its being developed by ''A talented new development team", Bethesda is not a new development team

2.DOOM and Wolfenstein II are on XB1 too, are they making the next Halo as well?

3. Bethesda said they will RELEASE an annanounced game this year still, thats what they said. Thats clearly not Metroid Prime 4 (its DOOM on Switch)

I don't really like to participate in Nintendo fan fiction but if Arkane made a Metroid game there is virtually no way it would not be good.

now this is the stuff I like to dream at night

Spoiler

but my dreams hardly ever come true

 

[Hermii]

I thought they confirmed its epd. They said it was an internal team.

Developer: Nintendo

Pretty sure that means EPD. It sure as hell doesnt mean Bethesda.

 

[FreedomFighter]

3. Bethesda has said they are working on an unannounced game and no one knows what it is......

But Prime 4 is announced...

 

[Jonneh3003]

I thought they confirmed its epd. They said it was an internal team.

The developer isn't public information yet.
