[QUOTE="_Chaz_, post: 5547852, member: 200556"] Basically what he's saying is: "Buy the game that you've verbally confirmed that you don't want and we can talk about it after we have your money and positive sales data supporting the idea that you want this game and more like it." Using Wind Waker as an example is a terrible comparison because, although it looks different from other games in the series, Wind Waker was a traditional Legend of Zelda game. Meanwhile Federation Farce is nothing like a traditional Metroid game and is basically Prime Hunters 2.0. If Wind Waker was Zelda II 2.0, it probably wouldn't have been as well received. And going by the quote posted, he's completely ignoring the more valid concern. That poor sales of this game will not say "We don't want this game, we've never wanted this game. Give us an actual Metroid game and not a game with the Metroid name slapped on it for sales", and will instead be interpreted as "We don't want Metroid games anymore, they simply do not sell". This is even more likely given the backlash that Other M received, and how that message was received by Nintendo at the time. All they have to do to test the waters is to remake an older Metroid game in 2.5D. They could dump the project off on Sora Ltd. and have it churned out in no time at all using the Smash Bros. engine and, as long as it wasn't intentionally ruined, it would sell and probably be pretty good. But they don't want to do that. Instead we get another handheld, multiplayer Metroid shooter. Because Prime Hunters TOTALLY showed that people wanted more of that. [/QUOTE]

Only thing drive me crazy is all these new horror games nowadays is its so dark, all time. I can't even play them. I understand they trying to create spooky but be creative a little, not just darkness with pop out scare scenes.
