woo, time travel in a zelda game......... that hasn't been done multiple times before.......

There's a lot of speculation that the ship seen following Samus at the end of Metroid Prime 3 is in fact Sylux from Metroid Prime Hunters.

Another theory is that the ship actually belongs to Dark Samus. This wouldn't be very shocking, as the previous two Prime games have all had secret endings that show Dark Samus surviving whatever it is that you did to her. This would be pretty silly though in this case as the source of all Phazon is seamingly destroyed (along with Dark Samus/Metroid Prime).

The developers behind the Prime series have stated that they would like to continue the series on the DS/DSi at some point in the future and the former director of the series has also said that if the fans would like to see Phazon and Dark Samus again, that they'd love to make another game. Of course, it all comes down to what Nintendo wants. The Prime series isn't a very big seller compared to Mario, Zelda, and Pokemon and generally requires a bigger budget to produce (than your average spinoff/2D Mario or Pokemon). Not to mention that the Trilogy compilation sold less than half a million (while NPC Mario Tennis continues to sell like hotcakes) and that Japan absolutely hates the Metroid Prime series for being a FPS and being developed in America (Japan hates non-Japanese games). Really though, Japan never even liked Metroid even when it was made by Japanese devs...

I'm pretty sure that from now on, Metroid will be back in the hands of Japanese devs. Whether or not the series will continue that way or "die" depends entirely on the success of Metroid: Other M. If Other M fails, we can expect the series to go the way of Kid Icarus with Samus only appearing in the occasional Smash Bros. Either way, I'm positive that an America developed Metroid title is out of the question. If Retro is working on anythign right now, it beter be successful, because I can see Nintendo firing their staff and dissolving them. Which is a real shame.

ugh, are you kidding me? if metroid prime goes to the freakin DS or they bring back dark samus........ grrrr. That is just ridiculous

I am definitely excited for Retro's next project. After the Metroid Prime trilogy, I will probably buy anything they put out. Even if it was a my little pony game!

i've heard good things about it.

but I'm not gonna buy it til I have to. (ie for metroid or zelda)

won't they feel too dated to be fun?

bob_newman

What?

That's the most....special question I've ever heard.

I hope it does well. It looks like its shaping up to be one of the few awesome games for the wii

well, it wasn't a very good game, so why should people buy it? sure it wasn't the worst, but it was very... meh.

UC was a fun "distraction". It was awesome. DC felt tired and mostly phoned in.

Silent Hill Shattered Memories is very good. And from what I've heard, so is Dead Space. Other than that..... RE4 I guess? lol

Phantom Hourglass is by far the worst Zelda game in my book.
I really didn't find the Oracle games too interesting either.

I only buy games that I am absolutely sure of. 50 bucks is a lot to waste!

I got gamefly and rented out all the games i was on the fence about. And my instinct is always right! most of them sucked. Madworld, manhunt 2 (not 2009, i know), ugh, there were a lot more that i cant think of at this moment, but madworld sticks out in my mind as the big shadoobie. what a rip that game was. waste of a rental.
