	That would be cool, becuase I dont like any of the prime games (other than hunters). The original games are okay though n__n Logged

Reputation: +0/-0 Offline Gender: Posts: 992	I agree Swiftu. I really hope they do! Only, take super metroid. Brilliant game, only so much was in homogeneous underground caves. I hope they would make more of the environments on the surface. Also, super metroid had too much steaked on the ice beam, so i'd hope for more elementally critical beam differences like prime. Also...Samus shoudl take her helmet off, and shoot laser beams like the girl in Limeys avatar! That could be the Hyper beam! Logged

Not at all like FPS, and the control of movement and view was much more intuitive than fps games are for me. I really enjoyed the transition from super metroid to prime. However i still think new 2d metroids would be awsome. Logged

You don't know me. Reputation: +0/-0 Offline Gender: Posts: 234	I wouldn't go so far as to say the Prime series sucks (as I have barely played any of them), but I do agree we need a 2D Metroid game. Maybe even a game that takes place AFTER Fusion! GASP, unheard of! They could bring back the enabling and disabling of items, as I've never really gotten to experience that. They could have grapling beam upgrades, and a play area bigger than Super's. I don't see how it would have to be a story with Samus clearing her name, since I don't think the Federation (I always think that sounds was too much like Star Trek >.>) would lock Samus up in jail or anything. And, if it doesn't take place in a Federation facility, then they could skip over the order giving. If it takes place on an unfriendly planet.... Yeah. DS Features Time The action could take place on the lower screen, with the status menu on the top screen. When you press start, the screens switch around, the gameplay pauses, and you can access the pause menu. You of course have the status screen, the map screen, and the super duper power saving Sleep Mode! When actually playing the game: Items To activate the speed booster, you not only have to have neough space, you have to slide the stylus in the direction you're running. To use the grapple beam, tap the grapple point you want to grapple to. To fill your tanks with reserve energy, you drag energy from the on-screen reserve tank display to the health display. That's all I've got for now... I kind of went overboard. >.> Logged

They were developing one for a while (tentatively titled Metroid Dread) but then it just kind of disappeared and Nintendo stopped talking about it.

As to the Prime series, the only one that you could say sucked was Hunters. Even then, it didn't suck as a game just as a Metroid game. Both entried in the main Prime series are very good though. Well made and very reminiscent of the Metroid play style. The developers did originally have a 3rd person camera system planned, but they thought the first person style worked better, and to be honest most 3rd person shooters play poorly. I mean, it is just an opinion, but you are definitely in the minority in saying that they suck.

I don't like that idea; it would get annoying to have to take out the stylus every time you wanted to do a boost.

To use the grapple beam, tap the grapple point you want to grapple to.

Again, I'd rather have it the old way, since it sounds much easier, imo.

Why can't we just have it on auto? ;_;

	actually the only mildely good prime was 1. Hunters was by far the worst. I bet they tried to make a horrible game and that had samus in it. and stuck on the "Metroid Prime" label on it so it would sell lots...seriously samus and her ship are the only thing from any other Metroid game in the game.

Reputation: +0/-0 Offline Gender: Posts: 992	I think the stylus wouldnt be that usefull in a 2d metroid game. You could use it for things like path-seeking missles to hit switches that are on the other side of little winding holes. Its something you couldnt really use in conventional realtime play. Moments where you stop, and stand still to do something : That is where to apply the stylus in a 2d metroid game. hmm. Can you imagine the direction you shoot in being exactly the direction you slash the stylus on the screen: If only your hand didnt have to be in the way, that might eb quite cool: 360 degree shooting! Just drag the Stylus from Samus to the enemy (or for a short drag in that direction). Logged
