@slurcat@PalmyrPar Realistically the Zelda series is known for reinventing itself so I don't see how a remake of a 30 year old game is exactly the death of culture.
@PneumaTime@nin10doland I understand you people thought this game would cure cancer or something but is metroid prime 4 REALLY a lesser game than Mario tennis? Or did none of you actually play it and are acting like it's far worse than it actually is because of youtube/Twitter vibes?
@NotBradyPower@IvyfulWorld It's obviously the best game on here besides donkey kong ๐ "iTs a bAD mEtRoID GaMe"...yeah okay it's obviously a more impressive product than Mario fucking tennis.
@pepie_21@CoolSkelly_123 It is good, maybe bordering on great, but people have such mythically and unrealsitically high expectations of that series that anything that isn't some industry shaking masterwork is seen as a "failure".
@paprikastaude@GlitchTwitched2 It's funny how the standards of metroid game being "shit" is essentially an 8/10 game. Like realistically the series isn't going to stop because fans threw a tantrum over this game. It's not like nintendo or any developer has made some ultimatum statement like this anyway.
@Blundarian@Critical_Scribe I mean it's a series that caps out at around 3 million in sales. Realistically it's probably outsold MP2 and will probably do better than MP3 when all is said and done.
@inkfycreates@HerielP48 I mean...most people just buy the ps5 for one exclusive they might be vaguely interested in but then just use it as a 2k/fortnite machine ๐
@DemieTournes@justinewingz Okay but metroid is still a largely solitary game that has a mute main character. If people didn't like the one nerdy guy then fine, but I would never put something like MP4 in the same box as God of war or forspoken. Like...metroid is still an actual video game ๐
@SliasCrowe@AnAverageGamerX I don't see how a nerdy tech character in a sci fi game is unforgivable. Yeah, he's probably the most millennial/"quirk chungus" a nintendo character will probably ever be, but it's not even a tenth of the level of egregiousness as the sassy jello cube.
@Chilly_MIV@SNESZombie OK. Like I said it's fine to admit the switch has a stronger library (mainly due to the fact many games are wii u ports and they obviously did not have to split development time with a handheld console) but the wii u still has more charm and personality.
@Chilly_MIV@SNESZombie Those are both 3ds games though ๐ that obviously did not affect metroid and chibi robo probably did not have that many shooters to begin with.
@Chilly_MIV@SNESZombie I mean it did though ๐ you can admit that while also acknowledging that the switch is a better executed and better marketed piece of hardware with a more consistent release schedule. It's fine.
@ST_Regin@VeryDMonstrous A nerdy tech character in a game that's mostly solitary anyway is obviously far, FAR less egregious than a talking jello cube who's gonna be in your ear the whole time.
