holy fucking shit, like I know we were joking but this is actually the death of the franchise.Didn't KiwiTalkz say they had to sell 5 mill minimum to make back the money???
what the fuck, all these faggots pretending to be fans saying they'll buy it AND THAT'S IT????
It's just the death of prime.2D is cheaper and dread showed it was more than profitable.Just make Metroid 6.
Shouldn't have made those joke characters, you retarded niggers
That's grim I can't even laugh at that
>>727712684https://x.com/nintendolifeI don't see that post at all OP
looks like sales were beyond our expectations
>>727712835>>727712807/thread
Where there's weird hair, beware. Even the marketing tried to hide the shit infesting the game until the last trailer.
You’ll buy it anyw-ACK
I....I killed the franchise?OH GREAT...NOW I'M GONNA HEAR A MOUTHFUL FROM PHIL AT THE WATER COOLER TOMORROW
>>727712684So yeah... that just happened!

>>727712916
>>727712684Gonna cope that these are japan numbers for now
Not all that shocking. Metroid's following, for a while now, has been made up of "fans" who've never played any of the games.
>>727713136>Pic says NoA CEO >NoAAnon...you might want to sit down...
>>727713176ThisPeople pretend they're fans when they talk about it online
The game didn't look good from the very first time we laid eyes on it. The first trailer was very underwhelming. The mouthy NPCs and the empty desert killed any remaining hype closer to launch.
>>727712770Nintendo tried their best to make the game look exactly like something a Metroid Prime fan would not want with all those trailers.
>>727712871>>727713132Prime 1 Remastered barely sold a million, and it was a budget release w/ exceptionally high praise for a remaster. I doubt Prime 4 will break that in a month, especially with the murmur about the quip-filled characters.
>>727712684>people keep posting in this shitty fake threadYou are all fucking retards
>>727713365ThisEven Redditors hated it and they eat up ANY Nintendo slop
>>727713395Yeah, the real numbers are likely even worse.

>>727713548>Nintendo was quick to point out the sales of every other Nintendo Switch 2 game>Complete silence on MetroidOh yeah you know it's bad
>>727713649Better than being from where you are, poojeet
Isn't Switch 2 one of the best selling consoles of all time now? This is the only new release, did people just drop a shit ton of money on something they aren't even going to use?
>>727713459you are the redditor you stupid fuck. Go back.
>you got to watch the death of metroid in real timefeels goodcan't wait for fans to start crying about prime 5 followed by a public statement from Nintendo that metroid is no longer a focus
>>727713771Kirby Air Riders just came out a little over a week ago.
>>727712770It’ll be no different for F-Zero. It’s easy enough for people online to hop on the bandwagon and demand a new game, but are they really going to buy it?
>>727713459>Even Redditors hated it and they eat up ANY Nintendo slopNigger they hate Nintendo.
>>727713674>>Nintendo was quick to point out the sales of every other Nintendo Switch 2 gameAfter a week yeah.
>>727712684Anon, it's been two days.
>>727713771prime 4 is a switch 1 game,
>>727712684>Prime series is BIGGER than 2D Metroid>Prime Remastered will sell 4-5 million copies (doesn't even reach 2 million)>Prime 4 will clear Dread's sales, selling 5-6 million>meanwhile in reality, Dread already sold over a million copies at the same time period and was heavily loved even by Nintendo while Prime 4 can barely scrape 30KPrimefags got BTFO so hard and it was warranted. We'll now see the death of the Metroid Prime series, finally, and the rise of 2D Metroid again. No more Metroid Prime games, no more Tanabe, no more Retro Studios, and I hope the Prime series is fully removed from Metroid canon. lol, 2D Metroid won, Sakamoto won, Sakamoto's Japanese 2D Metroid team won, we REAL Metroid/Nintendo fans WON! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>727712684On the week of a new Metroid game being release, more people were searching Tifa than Samus.Pretty embarrassing for Nintendo. No matter how hard they try, Metroid always fails to hit the zeitgeist.Data excludes China btw, which would make the gap MUCH wider in favor of Tifa. I was shocked to find out she's almost as popular as Raiden Shogun levels of popular over there.
>>727713273lol imagine those salty redditors
>>727712684>>727712770>>727712807>>727712839See >>727712871It must be a brilliant game if we’ve reached the “I’m going to make fake articles up to pretend it failed” levels of cope

>>727712684good. i hate 3D metroid.
>>727712770
>>727712684The trailers were truly awful for it. Each made it look worse and worse. I'm not touching this shit before it gets a steep discount, if then.
>>727713459>slapping an open world betweenit's startling how dumb the average person is
Fake article but /v/ still falls for it.
>>727713176>>727713273fuck off, just create a new franchise if you want to explore the story of the gayest shit possible in an empty open world devoid of any substance and beautySamus is a bounty hunter, a silent one at that, if the dev really wanted to had some fresh air to the franchise, they should have explore this angleThe fan of metroid are people who played in an era of game with no yapping, no hand holding, just a gameThis whole thing is reminding me what happened back then with zelda skyward sword, FI being a fucking annoying sidekick always giving impromptu indication, yapping about dumb shit all the timeNobody asked for that shit, what we wanted was a highly immersive Metroid prime game with up to date visual and technology, that's itI've waited years for that fucking piece of shit, if that was released 5 years ago it would still be shit but at least it wouldn't feel like I was fucked without lubeMetroid prime is probably dead after that shit
>>727714227Why does everything have to be tortanic, that shit ruined the board.
>>727713771Yes, so was the Wii and DS, Primefags didn't have an answer to why Prime 3 and Hunters underperformed. They had no answer for why Dread, a 2D game, overperformed while Prime Remastered underperformed. But now reality is finally setting in with Prime 4. Nintendo treats the Prime series like shit for very good reasons.
>>727712684Nintendo is a extremely greedy and cancerous company, but that's not a good thing, the game might be 7,5/10 without the Nintendo Bonus, but you can tell they put some effort into it.Enjoy more Pokemon BDSP-tier remakes that look like Evolution on Dreamcast since tendies have no standards:>As of December 31, 2022, the games had sold 15.06 million copies worldwide.
>>727714401and yet SS sold a lot of copies and is rated very highly on metacritic, maybe you should pipe down
Sort of deserved for what they did. But this makes me much less hopeful for other Nintendo series like Paper Mario. They did the TTYD Remake which I thought meant they understood people wanted a more traditional game and were making one. I thought the same with Prime Remake and Prime 4 but they still shoved in so much stupid shit. Nintendo is legitimately retarded. BotW truly ruined all of their series for a decade besides Kirby and Luigi's Mansion.
>>727712684OH NONONO, WHAT NOW OP?
>>727714513>but that's not a good thing>butWhy are you people so god damn retarded
>>727712807They should give a third person 3D game another shot. My biggest takeaway from Prime 4 was that many segments would be better in third person. I hated fighting teleporting bosses or those wolves and having to constantly turn in circles to see where the fuck the enemy was.
>>727712835>joke charactersThey are not "joke characters", they are DEI characters, you retard. How can you not realise this? You got a quirky, strong woman, a strong military black man who is a loving family man, an ugly not funny person who can't shut up and passes as "white" and so on
>>727714390It’s just OP replying to xerself.
I already own Prime 1 and 2 on the Gamecube, Fusion on GBA, Dread on the Switch, 3 and the Trilogy on Wii, and the MP1 remake on the Switch.I will not be purchasing Metroid Prime 4. If the franchise dies, it dies. Sorry. Either remake 2 and 3 like they did with 1, or get another 2D Metroid or I'm not buying it anymore.
>>727712684>shit on old fans while chasing mass appeal>normalfags don't want to play Halo with Marvel quips and no multiplayer>old fans don't want to play a bastardization of the series>it flops >wow wtf guess nobody wanted Metroid Prime after all :)

Prime 4 baffles me as much as Other M did.Wtf were they thinking and were was the quality control by Nintendo?Shiggy used to get all involved back in the day and was a reason for first Prime existing in the first place.So many retarded design choices and marketing was a total disaster.

Calebhart said it's one of the worst games he's ever played and he loved prime 3 and even defends nu-pokemonThe green crystal shit at the end was the worst thing I've ever seen in a game. Why they didn't just omit it is mind boggling.

it's actually scary how gullible everyone in this thread is...
>>727715112>Why they didn't just omit it is mind boggling.Padding, that's it. Nintendo told them your game needs to be AT LEAST so many hours long.
>>727712684Single worst game ever published under the Nintendo label? NES Open Tournament Golf mogs the fuck out of this. Hell, worst game ever published with a Nintendo license? Even CD-i Zelda feels more like Zelda than this feels like Metroid. Retro oughta be shut down.
>>727712684Game was DOA as soon as they revealed the motorcycle and desert shit. Also none of the biggest shills on the planet (big twitch streamers) streamed it.

>45K in the first weekAPOLOGIZE
>>727714349He's right though The desert is just a way to expand traversal by an obnoxious amount. There's nothing meaningful there
>>727712684It's not on par with Other M as at least the gameplay is fine and it looks good but the content as whole and the story is pure shit. If it was just some sci-fi game I'd say it would be OK but it's not.

>>727713273>fans dislike any game that deviates from the formulaYou mean like fans of any game series? Why the fuck would I, as fan of something want something that isn't the thing I like replacing the stuff I do? If I like an RPG series why would I want it to suddenly be an action game? If I'm a fan of a racing game why would I want it to be a RTS? You get the idea I hope.
>>727714980>and were was the quality control by Nintendo?Didn't Nintendo nuke the first version of Prime 4 that was in development by a different studio
>>727715787first of all, I can tell that you're low IQ by showing me an AI overview instead of looking at the source. As expected, the AI got the context wrong and eshop sales are not included in this number. Second, the retail sales number alone would still be 3 to 4 times higher than 30k.
>>727712684You all know this is fake, right? Nobody knows how much this game sold yet.
>>727712684Funny to think those 30k have several cases of mentally ill tendies double or triple dipping just to own the "snoys"
>>727715830Other M is a masterpiece compared to Prime 4,which isn't even a real Metroid game.
This final boss fight is absolutely ridiculous (big spoilers inside)
>>727716183Sadly that's how actual grifters are. They don't want to learn how to play your series or learn to love it. They just want it to be like their favorite series instead. So they want Metroid to be more like whatever they like so it caters to them.That's been the death of too many fucking franchises to name in the past decade.
>>727714553Ohnononononononononononono not like this…

>>727715726Last post, saying the game had great rating isn't an opinion about the game anon, you just saying a number without any thought behind it, you can't fathom why this number exist, you don't think why the game was rated like that, you can't see the consequence it had on the franshise going forwardI'm speaking to the void, a null being, you're braindead"enjoy your game" even though we both know you don't play any
>>727714553Pretty embarrassing for a 3D Metroid game considering even the lower budget outsourced 2D Zelda games like Echoes of Wisdom sell 2.5M on its first days. I know Zelda was always bigger than Metroid, but the gap wasn't so wide back in the day. Now it's just embarrassing ro watch.
>>727716495I'm tornI don't want Prime 4 to sell because it does so many things wrong as a Prime game, and if it ends up as the best selling Metroid or Prime, Nintendo will double down on all the dumb shit for the sequelJust like BotW to TotK
>>727714553Every single time Snoys try to pull some retarded shit the universe turns it around and they get BTFO. It’s poetic
I had this shit preordered back in 2018, I didn't buy it because I don't have the money to risk $70 on something that might be good (and doesn't sound good based on what they added), if they make another dread and don't fuck it with dumb shit no one wants I'll probably get that one.Nintendo has been saving me a lot of money by putting out open world shit where they expect me to make my own fun but don't give me the tools to do so.

I think it will do alright, if nothing else because of the huge Switch installbase + Switch 2 boost, but I don't think it'll outsell Dread. The marketing was just too lousy.

>>727717063>I don't think it'll outsell Dread. The marketing was just too lousy.Beyond doesn't have a chance. Dread's marketing was solid, and despite a few nitpicks from diehards (happens with every Metroid game), it was very well received. From what I've played, the quips and desert aren't *that* bad in Beyond, but you wouldn't know that from watching the trailers. Poor inclusions, objectively, but not nearly as bad as you would think based on what we were shown pre-release.
You did your part and preordered it right?
>>727714390this website is nothing but bots and thirdies now
>>727717267It's very obvious and unfortunate what has happened to this site
>>727717265>>727717290only jeets defend tendie shit in 2025
>>727712684I don't know of a single person who thought the desert didn't look terrible. Even tendies had to rationalize it by saying that it wouldn't be the whole game as if it had any place in the game at all.The game would have looked way better and sold more units had they never shown the desert or better yet not put it in the game at all. A simple hub area with some elevators would have been way better than this retarded shit.
nu/v/ is so fucking cringe
>>727712684BASED Myles
>>727717146Man, I stubbornly pushed through the entire game hoping it would get better. I wish I could get that time back.
>>727712684Game had a flawed foundation from the get-go when they decided "Samus should have ugly pink visor"

I love her new cute purple visor
>>727717309I used an NSO voucher on itHonestly it's a great game, I have no idea what people here were crying about. Even the "open world" takes less than a minute to go from one side to the other

This is going to be spread to reddit, and people are going to celebrate this, and use it as a basis for "haha, in your face haters" type-discourse because no one bothers to look up source. I weep.
>>727717304The desert is boring but certainly not what makes Beyond bad. Even the gameplay is passable however the awful map layout and lazy upgrade placement ruin it. The shitty plot that doesnt make sense is just the cherry on top. The fed forces have likeable characters but the presentation as whole just doesn't fit a metroid.
>>727712770They were shills. Nobody is buying
>>727717540Many here haven't played it. I still haven't finished it, myself. The trailers fucked up by trying to make the desert look bigger than it is.
>>727717540I did but it arrived yesterday, played a bit but looking forward to continue today, been fun so far
>>727712684The guy on kiwitalks assumes Metroid Prime 4 has the same profitability of a standard third party game with no extra deal with the platform holder and is being sold for $60 for some reason, but it's a first party game with more than 3x the profitability, break even would be closer to 1.5 million units sold.
>>727717540You could at least acknowledge that some people might not like your game, instead of being an obnoxious shill.
>>727717440From what I've seen it looks great on the switch, probably better than lm3

>>727717720>why are you not saying it is bad?>SAY IT IS BAD REEEEE
WhatDidn't Nightreign DLC just sell like 2 millionHow the fuck is this only selling 30k
>>727717754It's the same generic big bandshit that plagues nu-Paper Mario.
>>727715707How the fuck are these people calculating 100million budget = 5 million sales to break even? I saw it once and now every retard is parroting it like they don't know how to do basic math. 2 million sales at 70 dollars is 140 million, even after retail cuts once you combine it with direct Nintendo store sales that probably breaks even. 100mil for a AAA game in 2025 is cheap as fuck compared to sony or ubisoft and even they think 5-6 million is a decent result.
>>727717573so, same shit OP did?????
Game was great. Idk why everyone hates it
>>727717720SAAR DO NOT REDEEM GAMEDO NOT REDEEMDO NOT REDEEMSAAAAAAAAAAR
>>727717581I would agree with that breakdown for what I've played so far (up to the lava area). Beyond feels much closer to Corruption than Prime or Echoes. Corruption's story and upgrades were also pretty shit, in retrospect. I'd probably rate Corruption around a 7/10. We'll see where Beyond lands.
>>727712770>pretending to be fansNigger we saw the garage from a mile away. Dread clears.
>>727717063The marketing was likely lousy because Nintendo already wrote it off as a loss since they know the public reception was gonna be bad. Any more spent on marketing would be a waste, they're not reaching new people with this title.
>>727717858My favorite part was the fight against the Mother Brain, that was so cool when the baby from the beginning returns and saves Samus!
>>727714553Op's anus violated
AH, LOOK AT ALL THE TENDIE PEOPLEAH, LOOK AT ALL THE TENDIE PEOPLEMILES MCKENZIESHOWING HIS FACE IN A GAME THAT JUST NO ONE WILL BUYNO ONE COMES BYLOOK AT THIS FAGGOTNOBODY ASKED FOR HIS PRESENCE, THERE'S NOBODY THERENOBODY CARESALL THE TENDIE PEOPLEWHERE DO THEY ALL COME FROM ALL THE TENDIE PEOPLEWHERE DO THEY ALL BELONG
>>727717925It is unfair to compare any other Prime to Echoes
Ericschizo they’re laughing at us… Please help me derail this thread…
>>727714431It's not tortanic, it's literally a few immensely butthurt faggots trying to save their dwindling sanity.
>>727718036Can't argue with that.
>>727717836You're insane and just hate music if you don't like sticker star's soundtrack
>>727712684>this is actually the death of the franchisePrime maybe but they'll let someone else take a crack at Metroid with a smaller budget.
>>727713273>immediately mischaracterizes what people dislike and then complains that fans don't like anything but the formulaPeople didn't dislike Other M because it explored Samus' backstory. They disliked Other M because its presentation was slow and plodding, regularly stopping gameplay for set pieces and cutscenes, and because the story it did have was melodramatic and didn't particularly fit the way Samus had been characterized thus far.People don't just dislike Prime 4s open world, they dislike that as an open world it is fundamentally at direct opposition to the series typical game design (experimentation is fine, but open world fits Metroid the same way GTA would fit being presented entirely linearly - not well at all), on top of just being a painfully uninteresting open world at that.Experimentation is fine. Dread experimented with having entities that hunt you on the map and demand more precise and quick movement, and it was extremely well received. Samus Returns experimented with parry mechanics and they were mostly well received.
>343 killed both Halo and Metroid PrimeThat's kind of impressive, to be honest.
>>727718034shut up nigga
>>727713135What is a contract writer for a cinematic?
>>727717918>>727717818Calling people snoytrannies over criticism is not ideal discussion.
>>727712684>last major first party game of the year is a massive woke flop>there will be no major Nintendo releases for the next six months>a rainbow colored tranny might have finally killed Nintendo It would be funny if it wasn't so pathetic.
>>727717819OP image is fake. For the record anyone who believed it is a fucking retard. A CEO wouldn't fucking randomly give out sales numbers like that.
>>727712807...Win?
>>727712770The game gas to actually be GOOD first.
>>727717540No it fucking doesn't take a minute we've fucking played the game
>>727717754Yuphttps://youtu.be/ZuNR4aVQYUc
>>727714227Why did this game have no zero suit fan service?
>>727718196>this game I haven't played is bad. I know it's bad because I watched a youtube video about it. I am very smart and my opinion is more valid than yours, a person who has played the game
>>727718034Fixed your character
the problem seems to be that it is on a console for babies. how are normal adults who like scifi and halo type stuff meant to play this?
>>72771268430k where?
>>727712684I sincerely hope this game flops.
>>727712770literal shills, retard
>>727713273Or, maybe, the quality of the new things presented is a factor. Other M's writing was horrible and stripped impetus from Samus and so is 4's.
>>727718542Your image makes me assume you are a Sylux fan that saw what they did to Sylux and you are really angry at how the fucked his character.
>>727715960You can't even get through the desert fast enough no matter where you're going to avoid Myles calling you to ask if you're lost and remind you to check the map. Kill yourself.
>>727717846Because a fuck ton of studios worked on it not just RetroALL those studios have to review their share of the money
>>727712807Just make Other M2,>directed by Itsuno (currently unemployed)>sexier Samus>non-stop fanservice >level design by Nintendo>don't make the controls retarded>get some decent writer for onceThere, series saved.
>>727718532Rape eh my Indian?
>>727717581I've heard multiple people complain that the desert is just pointless time sink and they force you to run around in it to farm some green crystals for like an hour to finish the game.
>>727718494>I played the game, that's why my only praise for the game is centered around the metacritic score and sales
>>727718172They're a fucking plagueThe worst game studio by far
>>727718045they should just chop it off already, no one will love them anyway
>>727718542Man poor SyluxHe didn't deserve that shit story
>>727718616Oh NO, anyway,
>>727712684WHAT THE FUCK BROOOOOOOS??!!!
>>727717540>Even the "open world" takes less than a minute to go from one side to the otherDude come on, it takes a couple minutes.
>>727712684That sounds like bullshit
>>727718612They had more than enough time to do cool things with him. Instead he's only around for a few minutes and Samus has to babysit the most ill conceived NPCs in recent memory and trek through an empty desert.I honestly wonder what elements within the devteam insisted Metroid should have basedjack NPCs and an empty fuckass desert.
>>727718781I don't know if it took me an hour but the majority of crystals I got from the shrines that have additional upgrades for your elemental beams and later with the super power bomb you can destroy bigger rocks that have plenty. Maybe if you know exactly where to go you may have to farm crystals but I had to go a bit around cause I missed here and there something so I had to go back and forward anyway so they naturally just came while exploring.
>>727718717are you retarded? 100 million is 100 million, it doesn't mater if 1 billion people worked on it or 1, that's the cost they have to recoup.
>>727719281Oh no, everybody look, the poor wittle poster is retarded!Please be kind to him, he's a bit slow....
>>727712684I'm not confident in the game's sales, but this number is too low to be realistic for North America. 100k or 200k would be a way more realistic flop amount, especially when the game has at least been charting higher on the e-Shop and importantly on sites like Amazon. Sub-30k would be far more believable in regions like the UK or Japan.
The Christmas boost will save it
>>727719328sorry, I don't live in the third world where you pay for a service which then changes in price after the work is done. I also don't live in a society where people are so shit at math they invent nonsensical fantasy scenarios instead of multiplying 70 by 5.
>>727712684metroid died the day the let dirty westerners change from glorious 2d to garbage fps , bury this franchise and PLEASE nintendo shelve this franchise 4 ever if the only option for games are western made games
>>727719470Awwww look at the wittle retard....he can only insult people in other countries since he has no basis to stand on. Awwwwww
>>727713132>Thread about a fake article gets 250+ posts of people acting like it's realWhy.
>>727719042Sylux was likely added very late development. The game was probably just going to be Samus doing a rescue mission of some Feds that crashed on Viewros.
>>727719548this is some of the lowest quality bait I've ever seen, stop talking to me you cringe autist.
>>727719631NDS
>>727714553OP status:>gaped
>>727712684Ouch. Yup, no way in hell it'll make 1 million in a year's time, just like Other M. Word of mouth musta killed the game.
>>727719475>metroid died the day the let dirty westerners change from glorious 2dnews flash retardsamus returns and metroid dread were both made by westerners
>>727714980>Shiggy used to get all involved back in the dayshiggy is retiringhis only contribution to donkey kong bananza was "make sure donkey kong is strong"
>>727719695>Sylux was likely added very late developmenthe got teased in Metroid Prime 3
>>727720163and in federation force but no one played that one.
>>727714553>the amount of butthurt tendieslmao
>>727713273>what innovations do fans actually want?The literal same formula, just with new powerups. All 4 prime games have the same fucking powerups, if you're lucky you'll get like one functionally new powerup per game, and maybe a new super beam with a different color that just destroys a different type of obstacle. The powerups in the prime series are overly "stylized key that unlocks a stylized door" and that should have evolved over 20 years. the 2d metroid indie games are big competition now, where they give you an attack, but that attack also increases your mobility moveset making your whole playstyle deeper. Vs prime powerups where you just swap between different beams that clear different colored road blocks
>>727720163I like that everyone in Metroid had a ship designed to look like their suit. It's very funny.
>>727713365And cultists here were still trying to sell you on it because gotta have muh switch games
>>727720512Another falls short of the queen of 'vanias.
>>727712684I'M NOT WEAK I AM NOT WEAK UUUUUUUUUUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
It won't be a huge flop but not a big seller either. It's a real shame that the game isn't great because this was the perfect moment for it to do well, crossgen between a console with 160M units and near the launch window of its highly successful successor and near the holidays
Kneel to 2dchads
>>727712684Even with the annoying characters such a game should not be selling this badly. This is a huge sign that Metroid as a franchise is just not popular enough at all to really justify it continuing. This probably should be the end of it from now on sadly enough. This is way too low. This is Concord levels of sales.
>>727712684>Almost 300 replies to a fake screenshotBravo OP
>>727719752Poor wittle baby, got mad and gotta go nighty night?
>>727714553F-fake news btw
OP IS A FAGGOT LIARPRIME 4 IS SELLING WELL
>>727720163Speaking of ships>You can't even scan your gunship in this game because it takes off as soon as you landWhat the fuck Retro
>>727713771I'm not going to buy a bad game just because i have the system. I'd rather play indie games/vn on the thing.
>>727720687I still don't understand why he's mad at samus. Was it "my allies died for nothing now since samus destroyed that weapon!"Some of the shit he pulls off in the final boss fight looks way more powerful than that shitty space pirate weapon anyways. They give zero explanation how some regular guy got a suit so powerful that he pulls samus through multiple dimensions and flies around with ethereal tentacles, and shoots lasers through time and space.
>>727720950>You can't disprove itGrim
>>727712684My mother always asks for things to get me for xmas, so rather than buy it immidiatly, I just told her to get me this. Not trying to cope; that's still pretty bad. But wonder if some are waiting closer to the day to get this game?
>>727720845Even metroid dread didn't introduce any new cool powerups. All of dreads powerups were either rehashed from old games, or more "lock and key" powerups to destroy different colored doors.
>>727721160>Even metroid dread didn't introduce any new cool powerupsThis is a lie
>>727721083The problem is it's not even morally ambiguous, Sylux 100% was a fucking retard who got his squad wiped out by disobeying commandsLike am I supposed to feel sorry for him?Am I supposed to go "Ohhhh! It all makes sense now!" Because it really doesn'tAnd fucking retards in the YouTube comments were going "This'll probably been expanded upon in the next game!" like fucking hell, you're telling me I have to wait AGAIN for Potential Man to not do anything again?
>>727721136Anon you need to be 18 to use this site
>>727712684Lmao, I was talking about how there were only 2K viewers on twitch early today and got mobbed how that isn't an 'accurate representation of interest.' Get rekt tendie defense force
>>727721249LOL, if the terrible sales are true, sylus will forever be an unresolved plot thread unless the shove him into the 2d metroids. But even the 2d metroids are sparce as hell and don't seem to care about sylux. Since prime series is so early in the franchise's timeline it would probably be too awkward to shove him back in.
So prime series is still before Metroid or what
>>727714553HEY, SNOY.WHY ARE YOU PLAYING BOTH SIDES?THAT TWEET IS FAKE.I CHECKED NINTENDO OF AMERICA'S TWITTER PAGE.
Daily reminder Prime series is not canon
>>727721508Pretty much. They originally debated making it non canon and acting as a side story, but they "felt like that would be a copout" so they just assumed nintendo would find a place for it in the timeline, so they just bolted it slopily in place as a prequel. That's why prime 4 had nothing to work with, the plot can't touch upon samus's pet metroid, her having metroid dna, or anything like that, so they just hoped fans would be excited enough for sylux that it would carry a whole game. Maybe it could have worked, but they literally just had sylux show up one time at the beginning with no dialogue, and at the end with literally 5 words of dialogue.
>>727719447Black Friday was the Christmas boost, Americans don't have boxing day
>>727721807>Baby Metroid doesn't die in Prime timelineBest timeline
>>727721291YIKES
>>727721291>>727721968Nintendo makes money from people playing the game themselves not from penniless losers sitting down in the cuck chair and watching a streamer do it for them
>>727721807I know metroid pinball isn't canon, but does it have any plot at all?
>>727720163We know from the leaks around Prime Remastered coming out that Tanabe was added to the project late on to try and salvage it. Retro probably weren't planning on following up on his Sylux plans until he made them.
>>727721892I wonder how samus feels after losing her powers and getting new ones like 20 times now
>>727721968I don't think the metroid series will survive past this. I don't know if plot wise there's a reason to continue anyways, samus is now the ultimate mary sue after dread, along with lore that was pretty much wrapped up on all ends (chozo, x parasite, and metroids)It's goign to be like starfox/fzero where fans scream and scream for years but nobody actually buys them when they come out.
>>727721968>still only 2.4K viewersJesus what a dud. I was just trolling earlier cause it was 5AM in the states but man this would be prime time hours for kids gaming since it's Saturday evening
>>727714553This can’t be happening…
>>727722096Why are you so invested in how much money nintendo makes? You on the payroll?
>>727719631Because one guy makes 150 of the posts and 50 people don’t know about that guy
>>727714553OP ACKed himself
I'M LITERALLY READING AN ARTICLE RIGHT NOW THAT DESPITE EVERYONE BLAMING TEAM NINJA FOR OTHER M, IT WAS ACTUALLY WRITTEN BY NINTENDO'S YOSHIO SAKAMOTO?WHY DID WE ALL HAVE SO MUCH MISPLACED ANGER FOR SO MANY YEARS?
>>727714553>we sold 1 million copies!!>install base is 154 million switch ones and 10 million switch twosSo 0.6% of the install base. Wow great job
>>727722328Why are you so invested in how many thirdies watch a twitch stream? You on the payroll?
>>727714553Snoyjeets… we lost…
>>727722606That didn't really answer the question, but I'll take your non-answer as an answer I suppose. Explains it all.What payroll are you referring to in your "no u" attempt? Twitch, or the one of the streamers in the image specifically?
How many sales do you think were lost due to the myles reveal trailer?
I just finished the fifth dungeon and man oh man it was dragged down incredibly by a ME2 ripoff story.Dungeon rating is probably 2>3>1>5>4.>>727722483Because outside its hideous plot, Other M was also just M for Mediocre.>haha play on a nes pad>haha rotate it to aim mid fightWho approced this?
>>727718182Someone paid by the hour to write the cutscenes.
>>727714553Delete this. I beg you
>>727714553Faggot OP BTFO
>>727712684No direct, right in between the hyped up sakurai game and the pokemon dlc. Lets update Mario Kart while we are at it boys!
>>727722751Not as many lost from the desert trailer since it was shown in a direct instead of just being uploaded without fanfare.
Boys don’t worry a sylux Extra Dimension Pack Paid-DLC is coming!! Everything will be explained!1!
>>727716596BotW murdered the series to bring in normies, the numbers will never be close ever again.Not that they aren't trying to drag normies in with the NPCs.
>>727722763Would other m be better with nunchuck controls? I'm assuming the C button would swap to first person or something. Then you'd have another couple of buttons available. D pad would be extra.
>>727714553Noooooooooooooo we were supposed to win!
crazy, not even nintendos biggest fan is playing it
>>727712684Nah, unfortunately this will likely be the best Metroid game ever sales wise.
>>727723118If you just gave other M Prime 3's control scheme it would jump from its current 5/10 status to a 6, 6.5. If you did that and cut the story, easy 8.
>>727722102It's a retelling of Prime 1 so technically yes, but not anything new.
>>727714553But /v/ told me it would flop???
>>727712684Lol into the forgotten vault with Fox and Falcon you go, Samus

>>727722751Look how much the numbers drop with each new trailer?They really did kill the game
It sold a million units in 2 days ffs lol.
>>727714553Hello? OP? Care to explain?
>>727724379>older videos have more views and they all have the same search term of Metroid Prime 4woah... no way..
>>727724436And where's your source?
>>727717846Nintendo only gets $27 from every copy sold. Everything else goes to the retailers and publisher. If they only sold 30,000 copies that means they only made $82,000 from the game. Not good.
>>727724520Hmm, other Nintendo franchises don't have that problem...>Each trailer for BotW only gained more popularity UH OH
>>727712684Good. Fuck Nintendo. It's time for them to learn to be desperate enough to hace 75%+ off sales.

>>727715548Cute painted nails
Prime 4 was really bad, ngl
>>727712807I don't think Nintendo views any difference between 2d and 3d Metroid.The death of prime is likely the death of the franchise for a long-while.
>>727723403It's a decent Halo game. I: think normalcattle like Halo more than Metroid anyway.

>>727712770Being a fan of something doesn't mean a slavish devotion to consuming every bit of related media immediately upon release. No one wants to pay $70 for what we all know will be a subpar experience. Furthermore, throwing your money at a series is not the way to keep it alive. Whales will always exist. They will always fund the things you like. Your $70 contribution makes as big of a difference as your presidential vote, or your $0.30 rounded up donation at Taco Bell. You and your money are a fucking drop in an ocean. Word of mouth is what will sustain anything these days. Pre-release hype (non-existent), or people playing a game and telling everyone they know that it's worth playing. Anyone who has finished MP4 is either disappointed or indifferent. So why would anyone be paying for it?
why the fuck did people think OP was real? what company would say that 2 days after release of their new project
Strong woman not so strong. Go woke, go broke.
>>727727597switch generation utterly mindbroke them
>>727712684>make stupid decisions to try and broaden the appeal>people who aren't interest don't buy it because they aren't interested>people who are interested don't buy it because you made it bad trying to get people interested>unfortunately the IP just isn't viable so we have no choice but to shelve it. This shit happens like clock work every time it gets attempted, why do they keep trying it
>>727728506>Now he's suddenly complaining about threads from months agoOkay fucking liar, tell me what the OP was about. Just give me ONE line from it and I'll find it easy>It was image onlyDoesn't sound like video game but fine, what was the image I'll STILL find it lying faggot
>>727714553>>727712684>Fake tweets, the thread>Jannies do nothing
>>727728894Nintendo did
>>727712684>make a shitty Metroid game in a franchise that already does relatively poor sales in comparison to other Nintendo franchises>use the excuse that nobody buys Metroid games now and stop making Metroid games going forward as Nintendo has always seemed reluctant to make Metroid games like they view it as a botherI guess this is going to be the last Metroid game in awhile with only 2D Metroid games having a hope of being made.
>>727726576>I don't think Nintendo views any difference between 2d and 3d MetroidExactly, Nintendo doesn't care about Metroid.
>>727728036>the only good Metroid games are the 2D onesI'm seeing a pattern here.
>>727724651its a nintendo game... nintendo is the publisher. nintendo gets 50% of retail profit but a giant proportion is now digital sales which nintendo gets almost 100% of. this is why even at 2 million they would likely break even.
Just Dance 2026 ($30) is outselling it on Amazon. Metroid 4 is number 2 on the list.
>>727729150Now I really think you are a tranny janny. Why do you care this much? You work for free already. Shouldn't you do your job and delete this thread?
>>727717740always has been
>>727719631Half(3/4th) the posts here are done by bots.Why not fuck with them a little?
>>727729582TELL ME WHAT THE THREAD WAS LYING FAG
Supposedly it cost $100 million to make and needs 5 million sales just to break even.https://twistedvoxel.com/metroid-prime-4-may-be-nintendos-most-expensive-project-if-leaked-100-million-budget-holds-true/I can't imaging it doing only 30k after getting the front page of Nintendo eshop all month but the series is finished. AI can make better games now. Retro should be shut down.
>400+ posts of people falling for a fake tweet once again
>>727712684next time don't add annoying characters, joss whedon writing and a bland empty open world area to your game, or don't show it in the trailers so you can trick your audience into buying garbage.
Another possible warning for CDPR to add a character creator to Witcher 4 before it's too late.
>>727729157>SAVE ME SNOPES!!!!
>>727716484He's retarded
>>727715291>t. switch1prime4snoy
>>727712807Metroid died with Gunpei Yokoi.
>>727726684Yeah, the setting and actual mechanics were good enough.It just has god's worst control scheme and jesus' worst narrative.
>>727713883I would buy it if it didn't suck you retards. If you make a halo game and call it a Metroid game I'm not gonna buy it.
>>727712770People only buy games if they think they will enjoy them. That bar is lower for fans of a series since they know they already like certain things about the game. But you can still make something that looks so shit that not even fans want it.
>>7277295232 million isn’t a disappointment but this game has been in the oven for too long and has attracted too much controversy for Nintendo to be pleased with it.
>>727714210This means nothingmore people jerk off to tifa.what a surprise
>>727712684damn, that's too much
>>727714683Very tired of this shit. They did the same with many franchises. >>727714595This was good in theory for the canceled Metroid 64>>727714553It won't sell anything. Remaster prime 2. And keep the fucking lighting effects from charge shots.
>>727715787I actually bought that one on launch day and never opened it. Was it any good?
>>727712835Go joke go broke
>>727731365It was good enough they gave the developer metroid 5.
>>727713018If this guy had been an Austin Powers style overconfident pervert instead of an obnoxious faggot dork I would have loved him like a son
>>727714282>>727714210It's kind of amazing how long people have been jerking it to Tifa.Who's the longest-lasted fap-fuel character?I suppose someone from an old comic book?
>>727718234>one bad game>killed NintendoDo you faggots ALWAYS have to be this dramatic?
>>727731515Tomb Raider.
>>727712684Metroid has always sold bad. Why did they think they would pull Zelda numbers on this game that has historically done bad?
>>727731515That legendary Tifa video was my introduction to porn, she’s just iconic
Honest question how do you even report threads like this with fake news? Trolling? Flamewar? At least post real shit if you want to shit on a game
The devs are such retards. They didnt even get the year of the game right. Its supposed to be set after prime 3 and federation force but the year they show at the start of the game would set it after Super and Other M. This is not something hard to check. It would have taken them less than a minute to get this information.
>>727732045but that year is after prime 3 and fed force
>>727724553Nintendo on X you faggot.
>>727719631it's not called Nintendo Derangement Syndrome for nothing.
>>727732145Metroids are still around in Prime 4 when they are all gone after Metroid 2/Super
>>727712770i saw that faggot being like "POGGERS METROID IS MORPH BALLING" before going to EB and refunded my pre-order
This game feels like a side story in Samus's life.
>>727717070lel i bet in your tiny brain you thought this would be huge and worth posting
>>727731902because zelda also sold bad until its slopification
>>727712684Well, they should release it on PC/Steam, it would be lucrative to Nintendo.
>>727732486Of course, there's no Ridley
They hired a blue haired games journalist womyn that made an article saying samus is trans, to be a writer for this game. Regardless of any other facet of development it was over before it even began with those sort of priorities in hiring.
Is this franchise dead for good now? I know OP is just lying but I just mean in general like they worked on this for ages and it likely wont sell well and its reviewing poorly. So will Nintendo kill the whole Metroid franchise now? Will they maybe at least continue the 2d games? Dread sold well enough.
>>727732871They'd have to get new devs on it because Mercury Steam is imploding. I doubt Nintendo will go shopping around so unless another company approaches Nintendo I don't see them making a push for it.
>>727716183This is mp: federation force 2, feat. Samus
>>727716617We went through this in federation force lol
lol this thread is actual infowars. everything is fake itt
>>727712770And they all would have bought it. Then they revealed the awful desert filled with nothing and the retarded npcs. Thats what happens when you take something appealing and shit on it. The appeal goes away.
>>727732871they've already started work on Prime 5, it's not dead at all. Nintendo isn't sony.
>>727732354they considers those little shit mocktroid metroids? damn
>>727733491>they've already started work on Prime 5But the reaction to Prime 4 might make them cancel it?
>>727712684Well this is great news, it looks like a shitty game. Dread was also fucking garbage, let metroid die and stay dead.
>>727733491There's no way it's not get canned and Retro downsized after this. They'll be sent to the support studio mines along with NST.
>>727733740Good morning saar
>>727732871According to rumors Retro is already hard at work on Metroid Prime 5. Nintendo knows what went wrong with this game and will make sure it doesn't happen again.If poor sales meant anything Metroid would have been shit canned a long time ago. Nintendo keeps it alive because it's still profitable enough and keeps hardcore gamers around. They know they have something special.
>>727712807I'm done with anything that has the Nintendo label on it. Company is fucking garbage.
>30k salespffff. shjjjj... pffff kkkkhhh. sss
>>727731965What you gonna do about it fag? That's right, I made a fake Twitter screencap to get a bump limit thread and over 85 repliesThe fuck you gon do Timmy? Cry? That's right bitch.In fact, put some lube in your asshole cause tomorrow at exactly 12:00pm I'm gonna make the SAME thread with the SAME pic again.Lil bitch
>>727732045Wow what a bunch of idiots
We really need to just nuke southeast asia already
>>727713273Metroid was Dark Souls before Demon Souls came out. There's no reason why a hardcore Soulslike Metroid made for hardcore audiences cannot sell extremely well. People in the industry needs to get into their heads that casuals buy Elden Ring nowadays.
>>727735695I fucking hate indians and jews and hope it under performs. I hate the direction nintendo is taking their games.
>>727716536asking the real questions real gamers worldwide want to know
>>727714342holy shit accurate kek
maybe they shouldnt have thrown in npcs that we dont like that follow you aroundWhy in the fuck did they double down on the thing that people didnt like about prime 3?
>>727737203you lost and got raped
>>727713273>Having Samus explore a claustrophic maze can only be interesting so many times.meanwhile hundreds if not thousands of Metroid fans have replay numbers for series core games in the triple digits. I myself have probably plays replayed and 100% Metroid Prime 2 at least a dozen times in my lifetime
>>727716353Where is the semen level meter?
>>727737826I bought a switch 1 and 2 day one. I can like a company or game and still be critical. It's called being a fan and passionate about something. Not a brand loving faggot
>>727716353the worlds first FPSRTSMMORPG....
>>727712684>500 replies for a twitter screencap thread>Worse, a FAKE twitter screencap threadFuck this board and fuck everyone who posted in this thread
>>727721020>Nigger ballBurgers are hilarious
>>727712684It only needed multiplayer, dammit. Like Prime Hunters.
>Didn't N1ggercUmGuzz13r say thisPlease please PLEASE kill yourself parasocial salesfag internet personality obsessed fucktard
>>727738771I read nip and along others posted that nintendo doesn't do sales number unless it's something crazy. I'm just here to say I hope it actually underperforms a bit
>>727712684>>727713018Get woke go brokeLeftism is a mental illness 343 trannies and Jews like David Goldstein killed Metroid
>>727738771There's some very dumb retards on this message board.
>>727738771This board is so third world.
>>727721508>So prime series is still before Metroid or whatPrime is its own canon. Idk who these people are arguing it's in the timeline.
