Nintendo has apparently delayed both Metroid: Other M and Sin & Punishment: Star Successor.
With Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty coming soon, it's time to look back at the developer's greatest triumphs...and one oddball favorite.
Former Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime reflects on Metroid: Other M and his initial high hopes for the game.
Yeah we all loved how you took a stoic badass and turned her into a whiny shrew. All those writers should be sacked.
VGChartz's Paul Broussard: "The early-mid 2000s saw something of a golden age for Metroid games. After an eight year hiatus, Metroid burst back onto the scene in dramatic fashion. Largely buoyed by the critical and financial success of Metroid Prime (at least, relative to other Metroid releases), Metroid saw a whopping six new titles between 2002 and 2007, as well as one rather bizarre pinball spin-off that wound up being much better than it had any right to be. Metroid had never been this popular before."
Never though the day would come where I say this but I’d be fine with having every 2D Metroid remade the way Dread plays.
I'm not terribly surprised by a Metroid delay (the S&P2 delay is only a matter of weeks). As long as it is still released this year, no complaints from me (it does space out N's major releases better, too).
That said...if Other M is bumped to be the big holiday title, thereby pushing Zelda 'til 2011...that would truly suck.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
I hope it doesn't affect Europe, we were already get S&P earlier and we didn't have a solid date for Metroid.
Hopefully it's just a small delay for Metroid:Other M, like in July. Sin and Punishment 2 moved to the 27th of June. Maybe Metroid is getting a worldwide release date. :)
Metroid is gonna be dope. Delays are nothing but a good thing, it means they are fixing and working on the game even harder.
I don't mind Metroid so much, but Sin and Punishment... Good grief. Any gains from being distanced from Mario (which are going to be miniscule anyway) are going to be far outweighed by the harm to the interest in the title incurred from completely dіcking around with the release date.
