I think it's done. Nintendo has to see Retro is capable of actually putting out products too.Thanks for the info!
Hope its done and not cancelled. Timing of events would make you think the project is mostly done and in its way out

I mean I put reportedly and Imran is a reliable source anyway but I'm not about to get in this big argument hereYes, if there's one thing we've learned, it's to always trust insiders, without even labeling it as "Rumor." That never backfires on fans.
Yeah I would hope hearing about it in recent weeks means something is ramping up for it to release.No idea. I would assume so but that's only a guess.
I have heard it come up more in recent weeks so I doubt it's dead.
Yeeesssss. My bet is a 2D remake of Super Metroid or Metroid 4Should add in that imran said "other metroid stuff in development". Could maybe mean something like fusion remake and metroid 5?
Any examples? I remember hearing that Mario Odyssey was done like 5 months before it came out, but no idea if that was actually true.Nintendo sit on complete games all the time so there's really no saying when Prime Trilogy will release. Could be really soon or they could keep it locked away for a year
A year? Think bigger.Nintendo sit on complete games all the time so there's really no saying when Prime Trilogy will release. Could be really soon or they could keep it locked away for a year
Twilight Princess HD and NSMBU Deluxe were both on eShop servers for six+ months before announcement.Any examples? I remember hearing that Mario Odyssey was done like 5 months before it came out, but no idea if that was actually true.
So overall I wonder if MPT is gonna get delayed because of all of this, which would be sad.
Also it sounds like the old development process was really bad. Metroid Prime is special because of the way all aspects of it come together so well, it would be impossible to create that effect when you've got different studios in different parts of the world creating it
Fair question. Maybe the game envisioned was utter huge?Why did Nintendo even try to do something like that in the first place? Especially with Metroid?
It's normal for many big AAA games by publishers with many worldwide studios (see: Battlefront II, Red Dead II, etc.), but not for Nintendo. And apparently, these were all third-party contractors too.Come again? That isn't normal, is it? Sounds like a recipe for disaster. Why would Nintendo allow that for such a coveted game like MP4?
And "reliable sources" all said MP4 was going to be at the Game Awards... which didn't happen and we now know was in a very poor state, and is now cancelled (for that team). About as opposite from what the "reliable sources" said as it can get.I mean I put reportedly and Imran is a reliable source anyway but I'm not about to get in this big argument here
I'd say the same thing that this points to Retros current project being done or wrapped upNintendo sit on complete games all the time so there's really no saying when Prime Trilogy will release. Could be really soon or they could keep it locked away for a year
dude stop your not helping yourself. bullshit like this is the reason there is no insidersAnd "reliable sources" all said MP4 was going to be at the Game Awards... which didn't happen and we now know was in a very poor state, and is now cancelled (for that team). About as opposite from what the "reliable sources" said as it can get.
And people blamed Nintendo and Geoff for MP4 not appearing, and got mad. Because "reliable sources" were telling everyone untrue rumors that everyone took as gospel, just like this thread.
Insiders' batting average is not 0, but it's far from 1.000. Imran himself had reported that that oval-shaped "NX" was the real deal.
We can disagree about whether the rumor is solid enough to report on, but at the very least it should be clearly identified as a rumor.
Didn't Samus Returns hint at some new stuff on the traditional/2D side of the series? I just assumed they've had plans for another "normal"Metroid game, as well as Prime 4.Should add in that imran said "other metroid stuff in development". Could maybe mean something like fusion remake and metroid 5?
But then why would you play it on ewwwww Switch?Please give me MPT. I haven't played Prime 1 since the Gamecube days and wanna play again. Never played the Wii and Wii U versions because ew Wii and ew Wii U.
To be fair I don't think this indicates development completion outright.Twilight Princess HD and NSMBU Deluxe were both on eShop servers for six+ months before announcement.
They really do not see it as an A-list franchise anymore, lol.
That's pretty common for AAA games made by studios and publishers not named NintendoCome again? That isn't normal, is it? Sounds like a recipe for disaster. Why would Nintendo allow that for such a coveted game like MP4?
It worked with the looooong wait for BotWI do wonder what the plan is now for the MPT, you'd think announcing it along with the development update for 4 would be a good time and soften the blow.
That or just get the delay out the way and move on.
MPT trilogy will hold me over for sure. I never played it on the Wii/Wii U because... they were on the Wii and Wii U, honestly. I'd love to play them again. It's been so, so long.
Please give me MPT. I haven't played Prime 1 since the Gamecube days and wanna play again. Never played the Wii and Wii U versions because ew Wii and ew Wii U.
It sounds like this decision was made very recently. Like, maybe even in the last two weeks or so. I doubt they have much work done on it yet.
Helping myself? In what way am I trying to "help myself"?dude stop your not helping yourself. bullshit like this is the reason there is no insiders
Who says they only sit on ports?I find the concept of a company sitting on completed ports so incredibly dumb.
The confidence of Nintendo putting the delay message out there like this gives me hope that whatever Retro was working on is done or almost done. It would be weird to give them the reins if they were having problems themselves.Thanks for the info!
Hope its done and not cancelled. Timing of events would make you think the project is mostly done and in its way out
