Metriod Dread still alive? Or just a joke?

Another 2D metriod game would be awesome, hope that this is real, well, that the easter egg implies what it does.

i think its pretty iffy. i mean, if nintendo was going to make a new metroid, why would they hide it. its one their biggest franchises. i could be wrong thoughcloud_strifeXxX

If it is still alive, it's the best news for the DS since New Super Mario Bros.

2D Metroids... they're nearly impossible to beat.
