Yeah but that's your natural station in life. We're supposed to be treated better, it's cosmic law.

That is pretty rich from a nation whose men are too fat to fight.

 

[Oxx]

Clearly the US date for S&P2 has been pushed-back so that Nintendo can satisfy Europe's appetite for the title. They can't fulfill all the pre-orders...

 

[wRATH2x]

i believe he was not the one to make the decision

I just hate him, I wasn't blaming him for anything.

 

[JSnake]

all that needs to be said

 

[Perfect Blue]

I'm surprised no one has questioned the source yet.

 

[gfdoom]

i welcome this delay! i got's to much 'ish on my gaming plate as it is now. And more games are on the way. hell delay them all! :lol

 

[MechaX]

Hey, if they're using this time to work even more on Metroid, more power to them. Alternatively, if they're just pushing Metroid to fit the holiday title status when it's more or less completely done, Nintendo can burn for it.

And at least Sin and Punishment 2 has a release date and is not being sent entirely to an early grave.

 

[CO_Andy]

I say its worth the extra development time if Team Ninja is applying its boobs physics to Samus.

 

[brandonh83]

It was too good to be true.

Too. Fucking. Good.

Mario and then Metroid a month later? Yeah right. Whatever. We should have seen the danger signs a long time ago.

 

[Vanille]

Other M is probably just getting pushed to August. It never really made much sense to release it just a month after Galaxy 2. And, fingers crossed, hopefully they plan to do something about the abysmal voice acting.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Someone post that young son of the bitch Reggie pissing himself. It's the only way to make up for this. That heathen!

 

[Fimbulvetr]

 

[Threi]

you FUCKERS.

Spoiler

I don't really mind, more time to finish up and get SSFIV out of my system

 

[Crash Station]

I'm fine with this as long as it isn't a major delay for Other M. Gives me time to work on my backlog.

 

[AniHawk]

Thank Christ. 3D Dot Game Heroes, S&P2, Metroid, and SMG2 hitting within two months of each other was too much to handle.

 

[JJConrad]

bestbuy.com is showing a 6/27 release date for S&P2 and 8/15 for MOM

 

[Aaron Strife]

Probably so that S&P2 wouldn't slip through the cracks.

Metroid should hit in August.

 

[pakkit]

I knew it was too good to be true...

 

[CO_Andy]

What is everyone so sad about?

Nintendo wants you to clearly play the superior game in place of Metroid.

 

[Shadowlink]

It's good that Galaxy 2 didn't get delayed or else.

 

[LiK]

maybe they're looking for a better voice actress for Samus.

 

[OnPoint]

I'm surprised no one has questioned the source yet.

I did

 

[WillyFive]

Seems like whatever Nintendo's big holiday game was going to be has been delayed....

 

[jj984jj]

Hopefully Other M is still a summer release and their fall/winter plans are still strong. I want to play Xenoblade!

I guess we'll find out what's happening at E3 now.

Walmart is showing 9/1/2010 http://www.walmart.com/ip/Metroid-Other-M-Wii-Wii/13246825

 

[Skiesofwonder]

If that is true then I am all for this. I'll actually have a chance to play S&P2 when it comes out!

Spoiler

Just don't mess with my Zelda Christmas Nintendo!

 

[ZeoVGM]

Oh jeez, people overreacting already. I'm sure Metroid is just pushed back to late summer or something.

 

[Minamu]

Eh, there's so much else for me to play on my Wii so it's no bi... FFUUUUUU!

Gimme my Metroid or I'll cancel my SMG2 preorder.

*knocks over a stand at Gamestop*

Edit: Wait, is this worldwide?

 

[Varion]

Seems like whatever Nintendo's big holiday game was going to be has been delayed....

RIP Zelda in 2010, we barely knew you

 

[Jermzic]

I wouldn't be surprised if it was pushed to August.

 

[Rafaelcsa]

Even though they're the two of the biggest titles I'm anticipating this year, I'm not too fussed about this delay. I'll have Galaxy 2, Monster Hunter Tri and my giant backlog to hold me over. And I intend to get a PS3 sometime this year, so heh. Maybe it's for the best, if it means Metroid gets an extra layer of polish.

 

[AniHawk]

The 1st of September is a Wednesday and the 15th of August is a Sunday. Usually when you see a ??/01/20?? or ??/15/20??, it's a placeholder date.

 

[-MB-]

This is Nintendo, they ALWAYS delay big titles. I'm 100% positive Zelda wii won't make 2010.

 

[Stormwatch]

I wouldn't be surprised if it was pushed to August.

Yeah, both Wii Metroid games were released in August so far.

 

[lordoftherink]

I don't see anything about Wii Music 2 in the OP!

 

[farnham]

metroid other M was always Q3 in europe

 

[Vizion28]

Weren't Metroid Prime 3 and Metroid Prime triology released in August? Maybe they are keeping up with tradition.

 

[WillyFive]

This is Nintendo, they ALWAYS delay big titles. I'm 100% positive Zelda wii won't make 2010.

Probably.

Zelda Wii being delayed was probably the reason Nintendo pushed back Metroid and S&P2 to space out the calendar.

I don't see anything about Wii Music 2 in the OP!

You wish.

Hasn't been announced yet. Other than Last Story and Xenoblade, we don't know what Nintendo will release in the last part of the year.

 

[Urban Scholar]

Merely gives me the time to become OCD with S&P2 leaderboard scores around July.

 

[Gamer @ Heart]

This is Nintendo, they ALWAYS delay big titles. I'm 100% positive Zelda wii won't make 2010.

Thats not true. The few times they have the games have been months away from release anyway and no solid dates. This is a rare case where they dated a game and actually delayed it.

 

[Cow Mengde]

Zelda Wii was never going to come out on time.

 

[Rich!]

Aw maaaaan.

First my brother forgets to bring me back Mountain Dew from America, and now this.

 

[Neon_Icarus]

Let's try to think positively...

It probably only means that Metroid has been pushed to July. It would make it Q3 and Nintendo hasn't announced their release schedule for Q3 yet.

[Dreamwriter]

So, it's delayed at Funcoland. Good thing there aren't any of those around where I live!

(*Never* trust retail store release dates they are NEVER correct. Until Nintendo announces it, it didn't happen)

 

[KanZolo]

RIP Zelda in 2010, we barely knew you

Thought it was coming out May 11th??

 

[Oli]

At least Mario Galaxy 2 is on track. That's the one I care about the most.

 

[Wario64]

The 1st of September is a Wednesday and the 15th of August is a Sunday. Usually when you see a ??/01/20?? or ??/15/20??, it's a placeholder date.

What about June 27th on a Sunday?

 

[ZealousD]

It's not uncommon for Nintendo to release stuff on Sundays.
