It just sucks that so many people have forgotten that this game even existed.Plot twist, Namco let Prime 4 and Ridge Racer 8 get leaked to get viral marketing for Ace Combat 7.
I have been waiting 10 years for this game.

That's a bit premature don't you think?
"The guy that led the studio" in this instance wouldn't be a Namco employee. It'd be Tanabe.
Think Smash 4. Sakura and Sora Ltd led development, Namco had the workforce to realize that vision.
Ugh...remember what happened the last time Metroid was farmed out?
Would you actually write the title you're working on is "exclusive to X platform" in your LinkedIn profile?
What? Metroid Prime? Samus Returns?Ugh...remember what happened the last time Metroid was farmed out?

Even with other M, Team Ninja handled most of the brute development. The majority of the creative decisions were still done by Sakamoto.Ugh...remember what happened the last time Metroid was farmed out?
I guess part of my curiosity here is that Retro was way more than muscle on MP--it was responsible for all the lead designers as well. And it had experienced FPS developers to fill those roles. Does Namco have designers who have worked on similar kinds of games (or first-person games in general)? And if Namco is not really doing design work, then who is? Tanabe certainly can't do it on his own.
Soooo I may have just found the profile (which looks very legit) and a few others which definitely match timelines of said person and unannounced titles.

Maybe it could be due to them not revealing any information about its development or developers? That is a good point though
They mean they are unannounced as the developer. Panic Buttons Linkedin still had wolf 2 listed as unannounced weeks after wolf 2 was announced for switch

It's not false information. The VR mode is indeed exclusive to PS4.So, are we ignoring the false information about Ace Combat while believing the other info nonetheless?
Also remember when Bamco said they were gonna reveal 3 exclusives for the Switch in Spring-Summer of this year? Well Ridge Racer could be one of those exclusives announced in the coming months.
A fighting game handled by a studio with a long history of developing fighting games being directed by the same very, very hands on director that the series has always had. I don't think they're really comparable situations.Remember what happened the last time Nintendo farmed out a major game to Namco?
Right, I stand corrected then.It's not false information. The VR mode is indeed exclusive to PS4.
Nintendo did say that a new team was making Metroid Prime 4, which indicated the possibility that it was literally a brand new team and potentially a new studio.Aint BN Sing a new branch, no way Nintendo will a litteral no body handle their Franchise revival game
Tanabe, who directed Primes 1-3, is directing 4.A fighting game handled by a studio with a long history of developing fighting games being directed by the same very, very hands on director that the series has always had. I don't think they're really comparable situations.
I mean, he produced those games not directed (Mark Pacini, now with Armature, was the director for the trilogy) but yes he was heavily involved and it's safe to say that he will do the same for MP4.

Tanabe hasn't directed a video game since like the eighties, he's a producer. All the creative leads of Prime 1 -3 were all Retro.
I don't want a "pretty good" game though...
