So they're going to make the "last shot" 2d metroid a remake of a game that doesn't need one, is on the switch already, and sitting on metroid 5 when it was even hinted at? Sounds right for nintendo logic.

Nintendo Direct Speculation |OT3| It's really just another Nintendo Discussion thread
Fusion makes slightly more sense, but not saying much. I don't get why they won't at least make metroid 5 with this being the last 2d metroid ever. Not like nintendo can't afford it.
You have my vote
I hope you're proud of me. 🥺
I don't think you would need to put the trilogy remaster as close to Prime 4 if there's a 2D Metroid inbetween.
Metroid will stay on peoples minds that way AND people will have time to play though all these ~14 -20 hour games.
Releasing them TOO close will just burnoiut new fans that want tot try the old ones first.
or it could just be a lower budgeted affair. at least that way you could get both
but no advertisement
I guess I was thinking the schedule would be
2020- 2D Metroid (looking like Fusion remake)
2021- Metroid Prime Trilogy HD
2022- Metroid Prime 4
I mean I won't complain if MPT releases next year. That's the one I want more, especially now it's looking like 2D Metroid could be a remake and not a new game.
On paper it would make sense to alternate releases. 3D Metroid -> 2D Metroid -> 3D Metroid
I can kind of see it. Like I told the other person I definitely won't be crying if Trilogy comes first haha.
after the Stretchers, I wouldn't put it past them
I think next year will be a 2 Metroid release year. Trilogy in H2 and 2D Metroid in H2
and then Metroid Prime Federation Force HD in 2021
Imran said its been completed since 2018. And we know Nintendo just sits on completed games.
If Trilogy is coming next year, then damn it could be announced at the Game Awards. For some reason I kind of doubt it (being announced there. Ya know oil and water)
yeah I tagged them in my previous post. I figure I can provide my unique skills of being on this forum 18 hours a day to update the OP and stuff
We have to decide the title too. I've seen some suggestions related with Mother 3 or Prime Trilogy.
There will be a tease to a new story. Then we get super metroid remade after...
People are going to misunderstand and think it's about Bullshit speculation.

well it's not far off sometimes lol.

Did I miss the joke?

This is looking like a nice buffet. I can't decide. I am leaning towards the cmon Reggie though.
Come on man it's not going to be the last shot for 2D Metroid.
Just call it M Another
the title wist could be Other Man then, just like Other M had Mother
The whole concept of releasing the trilogy near the release of 4 has never made sense to me. Give us something Metroid during the wait for 4. Don't dump 4 Metroid games in our laps at once.
Nintendo ain't making the same mistake they made with 3DS. The console is already selling with what it got right now, save some for later to prolong system's life. Over cover for some potential future droughts. I bet they're saving some already done third party games for later too. Dark Souls 2? Tomb Raider?
Unless Nintendo has decided to publish those games for some reason, I don't think they get to dictate when a third party company is allowed to release their games.
Well, they did distribute Diablo 3 and Skyrim. One thing is certain, Nintendo is holding off releases of complete games, we only know one of them (two if you count Stretchers, three if you count M&L remake on 3DS). There might be more. Nintendo asking third parties to hold off their releases for a better timeframe doesn't sound impossible.
As far as I know, distribution (Skyrim, Travis Strikes Again, etc) is different from publishing (Octopath Traveler, Daemon x Machina). I don't think Nintendo dictates when a third party releases their games, even if they are distributing it. It's different if they have taken over publishing duties.
Nintendo can hold off on first party games, because they own them. They can do what they want with their own titles. They cannot do this with titles that belong to other companies.
Everybody stop posting until I get confirmation (or someone else does) from Muzy that I can make OT3

Which one are you talking about here? We know that both New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe and Crafted World were held back (the former was held off on for FAR longer than the latter; but Crafted World was still on the eShop servers in December).
That was a good explanation of absence of Dark Souls 2. Laura Kate Dale said all three games were ported to Switch and they were running at a satisfying performance. Then DS1 announced, delayed and released and it turns out it was a separate port of DS1 rather than PS4/Xbox One Remastered version.
Does DS2 Switch really exist? Or is someone holding off its release (it's been over a year since DS1 Switch release)? Or did they cancel it altogether?
I didn't know about them, turns out there are more. M&L1 remake on 3DS was also on eShop months before its release.
Ask Namco. It's their game, not Nintendo's.
As for my own guess; there never was any Dark Souls 2/3 port on Switch.
Her source was probably just wrong. I wouldn't put too much stock into rumors from the NX days.
