HahahahahahahaWhich one did the worst, /v/?
>>727671968hopefully metroid, but more likely NG4.
>>727671968Uh, why is prime 4 here? It's a good game and it will sell a metrillion dollars
>>727673154THIS is what you want to see in a good game?
>>727671968sales wise or game quality?>>727673321>gemini watermark in the corner
*blocks your path*
Ninja Gaiden 4 was an absolute flash in the pan and nothing else. It was boring.
>>727671968A fourth Mafia game came out? What the fuck.
>>727673641>the game that outed kojima as a hacklmaonow dmc 4, that's a fourth entry game that's underrated
>>727671968I mean it kinda depends on the word "worst".Mafia never really had a "fanbase" outside of the first game (IIRC), so it's kinda irrelevant, and Ninja Gaiden is in a weird spot because I don't think anyone even expected them to make a 4 and it just kinda came out when nobody was looking.Metroid's special because the games never really do THAT well, they just have a small, passionate fanbase, yet now you've got this AAA-budget Metroid game that people have been praying for for years and then it ended up becoming cancer to any existing fans, so then what's left?To its credit, MP4's definitely being propped up by normalfag Switch 2 owners going "ummmm it looks fine to me??? whats the problem???? yall just haters or sum" and not too much by the existing fans, but will that be enough to make up for a decade of dev time? Look at the credits, those niggas brought in a shitload of studios to work on the game, how much does THAT cost?Will a billion normalfags buy it and Nintendo then shits up the whole franchise for them normie buckaroonis? Or will it sell like shit and make back 10% of the budget and die?We don't know.

>>727675830>dmc4>underrated
>>727673578>sales wise or game quality?The former obviously since this is /v/. Sales and or steamchart numbers are all that matters here.
>>727671968>reposting threads
Did you seriously have to make the same thread again?
>>727676946To be fair, the only actual "source" of the $100m budget is that one leaker guy.But even without a factual source, it's not hard to estimate that the game DID cost a fortune, considering how most other games that take a decade to make always ends up costing a fortune, plus two Bamco studios wasted like two years before getting shelved, plus the final game had something like 20 game studios work on it, not just Retro, plus this is the most voice acting Metroid has ever had, I think (not sure about MP3).It all adds up to high costs, and even without the concrete, irrefutable objective facts available to us, I'd be willing to bet MP4 is 100% the highest budget Nintendo game ever, and that's adjusting for inflation too.>>727677153>game devs/publishers use sales as the only metric to decide if a game ended up being good or not unless they make a ton via ESG/DEI investments so they don't care>if a game is a huge viral and cult hit but sells badly, 95% of companies will still call that a deep, terrible loss>if a game makes a trillion bucks but gets shit on by reviewers, 100% of devs and publishers will call it a winIt only makes sense devs/publishers are like this, how the fuck else are you supposed to pay your staff if you lose money from a game's release?It's fun to make fun of games for being rated badly, but in the end all it does is hurt the feelings of the dev team (who might deserve the ridicule.)
>>727677175>>727677279What???
>>727674656It's a prequel to trilogy but it is technically the fourth main game
>>727676746Suppose time will tell if Metroid will see replacement theory work in full. Even if Beyond is a piece of shit in the pits with Other M (if not at least E-Tier) while being comparable to Halo 4, the ostensibly, vidya-starved NS2 userbase could drown out what's there of a relatively small fandom. And the game ends with more questions than answers too, so a direct sequel or at least some form of DLC is probably in the pipeline.
>>727675830dmc 4 gave birth to combotrannies, which was one of the big reasons dmc became known to normies.
>>727671968NG4 makes me sad. It deserved better. MP4 deserves to flop as hard as possible.
>>727677175>>727677279It's the same Ninja Gaiden and DD schizo, just incessantly obsessed>>727681575I know what you are
