I'm fairly certain it's the 30th anniversary this year, not the 25th.
It's a 5 year old picture but it still works.

Every once great japanese video game franchise needs a mediocre co-op action spinoff, it seems. Resident Evil has Umbrella Corps, Metroid's got Freedom Force, Metal Gear will soon have Survive.
Cant wait for Final Fantasy's
Fuck you Kotaku. Why even make that comparison?
I guess. What's always bothered me about this image is that you could apply it to a bunch of Nintendo's franchises, why single out Metroid? Where's my sad Captain Falcon cupcake artwork?
So as of now, Federation Force is the lowest rated title in the series, beating Other M by 10 points on Metacritic (not counting the GBA version of Metroid NES).
Also, since review scores are not given out evenly, a 67 doesn't mean it's above average. If you look at opencritic, this game is in the bottom 36% of all games reviewed. http://www.opencritic.com/game/3134/metroid-prime-federation-force
There's no reason real they used Metroid for this, either.

Ouch. I seriously doubt this is a worse game than Other M, but I can obviously see how it's way less appealing.
Not that I didn't expect these reviews or have any sympathy for the project, mind you.
I actually thought it'll do worse so ThisIsFine.jpg
But seriously, this year has been the shittiest year of Nintendo in the last decade or so due to the not so great amount of titles they've released. All the games they've released so far have been meh or simply not with the top notch quality we're used to see from Nintendo. SO dissapointed for that.

It might just be the reviews I read, but it seemed like the more negative ones focused more on the Single Player, versus the positive ones (like Kotaku) who played mostly in Multiplayer.

So it's garbage. Poor NLG, got suckered into helping this project.
Well hopefully Emily's rumor about the NX having some really strong 1st party support comes to fruition. Also that rumor about Next Level having another secret project in the works

Explorers isn't even their first one. That honor goes to Crystal Chronicles.Isn't Final Fantasy Explorers a Coop action spinoff?
I concur.Hmm I'd probably have to go with (C.) Seeing people get legitimately offended and upset by the development of a seemingly decent-to-great video game.

Sarcasm.Why ew? Some aren't out yet and some of those reviewed very well.
It's certainly the weakest year I could remember from Nintendo. I did enjoy Star Fox Zero though.Bravely Second

Are you a non-Pokemon fan and also a sadist?From what I am gathering:
+ 10-15 hour campaign
+ Co-op can be a lot of fun
+ online is rock solid! (Edit: non-region locked)
+ Deep customization/strategy during Co-op
+ Great mission variety
+ Great replay value on top of campaign length
= Solo may or may not be fun, depends on you
- disappointing as a "Metroid" entry (I know what I would be getting into)
- primary weapon not very interesting, advanced ammo is rare (only IGN?)
- possible griefing by other players grabbing the upgrades (?)
This sounds like a AAA 3DS package to me. I believe this will be my final 3DS purchase, and it feels like a worthy one!

So as of now, Federation Force is the lowest rated title in the series, beating Other M by 10 points on Metacritic (not counting the GBA version of Metroid NES).
Hunters having an 85 seems so off.

The irony is that most gyro-aiming shooters (FF included) on the 3ds and the wiiU gamepad utterly destroy the best stylus control schemes on the ds.It was back in the days when adapting any form of gameplay to touch controls was seen as so innovative that the scores got a huge boost. See Phantom Hourglass's scarcely believable 90 on Metacritic for further confirmation. The vast majority of those games have NOT aged well. Hunters was far from terrible though, and graphically it was incredible for the hardware it was on.
Scores were generally inflated back then anyway. It was the era of "<8 means shit sux".

Other M's Metascore is at least 10 points too high. Many reviewers scored that game on inertia and brand alone. The real backslash started later. You only need to read IGN's textbook example of a bad review (gave it an 8.5) to see it.So as of now, Federation Force is the lowest rated title in the series, beating Other M by 10 points on Metacritic (not counting the GBA version of Metroid NES).

It's at 71 now, for those who care
