Multiple people hinting at Metroid Prime 4 being at The Game Awards?

Dang. So you know nothing about Star Fox GP?

Other than the timing being somewhat coincidental, to when I was given the original game and that it’s supposedly a Retro Studios title, no. Nothing has emerged since April.

Just my own hypothesis here, but if it is in development, I could see that it was not shown off at E3 as to not take away any thunder from Ubisoft’s Starlink and its own Star Fox inclusion.

If it is not in development, then it most likely shares the same fate that Star Fox - Metroid did: a pitch and nothing more. (Or a pitch that entered development and fell apart along the way.)

I’m very curious to see what comes of it.

Kamiya is gonna announce F-Zero: The Falcon Rises

Jesus... Now you've just pissed me off, Dardan. This isn't happening, is it?

i wonder if fzero fans will be happy if they get a new game, but it's not a racer and is character action instead.

I will eat my own fingers but I'll still play it, somehow.

Fixed.

Tom Phillips is liking tweets with “Metroid” guesses in them under his “most of the reveals are known...” tweet

thefro · Dec 5, 2018

What if Sylux is really Captain Falcon? Remember he is a bounty hunter on the side.

He hates Samus & the Federation for costing him the F-Zero championship.

Good memory, yes. The same people that told me that a “Star Fox - Metroid: Fusion Saga” game was once a pitched title on the table at Nintendo and Retro Studios, told me this past April about Star Fox: Grand Prix.

Regarding the latter, I have no knowledge on its current status, if any.

Wat...

Chumunga64 · Dec 5, 2018

Is Sylux a confirmed guy?

I think it would be neat if they pulled off "Samus is a girl" twist again

It looks like everyone is pretty confident that Metroid will be there in one form or another.

Did this happen in Metroid x Star Fox?

I don't even have a Switch and I can't handle the suspense.

If Nintendo manages to shock us again with the same twist I will applaud them

Several years ago I received a rumor about that crossover potentially been in development. After attending that year’s E3,I learned that as far as it made it was a pitch that was discussed at some point.

Now regarding the racing game, my guess is as good as anyone’s at this point for I was only told by the same people, of its existence in some capacity.

Sylux is bluffbledge.... zork.

Huh, so we pretty much know all of the surprise reveals already. That's a bit disappointing.

Idk why he said “most”

There’s 10 new game announcements, these are four.

Plus some of the most hype stuff wouldn’t even count towards “new game” - Metroid Prime 4, Bayo 3, Death Stranding, DMC5

not all 10 are gonna be major games tho, the ones that have been leaked/teased are the major ones, expect a lot of not-so-big new game announcements.

You can actually do this fairly successfully in Dolphin, played through almost the entire Prime 1 in VR

Nice! I had no idea that was possible, but now I know what I'm going try when I eventually get the Vive.

This time, we'll get a pre rendered trailer and a 2021 release date

Dark Cloud said:
Why did you say “then”? Did some new info pop up saying it won’t be there?

Just my impression from that new Geoff Keihly tweet that some rumors of games to be shown are fake. With our luck, it's definately Metroid Prime he's referring to.

Xavi · Dec 5, 2018

I can't get work done today and I blame this thread and the Smash OT. I'm so hyped.

Switch boxarts have been amazing so far, hopefully Prime 4 continues the trend

i hope the US and EU covers are different and the EU one is better, to balance out botw

So what's the tldr so far? Trilogy all but confirmed? I'll be happy if i that's all we see, tbh.

all we know is something metroid being there is heavily hinted at, no idea if it's trilogy, 4, or both.

Ravager777 · Dec 5, 2018

What, is this really how they did the Metroid Prime 3 reveal?

I sure hope that they do better next time!

This is way better than what we'd got at E3 last year, tbh.

what happens if Metroid is a no-show tomorrow night

Something Metroid seems extremely likely. We all hope it's MPTHD plus MP4 trailer.

Ron Paul · Dec 5, 2018

At the last VG awards Nintendo announced a release for Bayo1 and 2 for Switch and Bayo 3 was in development. This year it would be choice if they followed that up with an announcement of Metroid Trilogy for Switch was coming soon and then show off some MP4 footage

I haven't seen that before, but that strikes me more as a tech demo than anything. That said there was the '3' at the end.

At least it was better than the Prime 4 reveal lol.

I remember watching this one a million times.

How salty would people be if they didnt show Metroid Prime 4 or trilogy and instead only had Metroid Other M HD to show.
