So long as Team Ninja isn't involved, I approve.

As long as Yoshio Sakamoto doesn't try to crowbar another one of his terrible stories into the franchise, I'll be interested.
You see. Team Ninja made the gameplay suck.

Sakamoto made the story suck.

As long as neither of them are involved, it should be good.

Please be 2D. I'll take another Hunters, though. But 2D Metroid is ALWAYS good.

Except for the people who thought it worked really well.

If you're having trouble with the first-person mode, beyond the "Where's Waldo" sections, it's just because you suck at the game. :p

Still...

*dreams of a sidescrolling 3D game that incorporates elements from both Fusion/ZM and Other M*

Mostly the fucking Where's Waldo section. Pace killing, and I actually needed to check an FAQ for 2 of them after 10 minutes.

And enemies only weak to missiles for 2 seconds, forcing you to quickly fumble to first person, quickly try and get a lock, and then fire. All without getting hit.

No... NO! Metroid Prime Hunters wasn't as much fun as I hoped it was. The best part was the multiplayer. But the singleplayer and controls were bad!

Please make it a sidescroller, not a first person shooter.
Games like Dementium show that FPSs on DS are definitely doable, though I still agree that a new side-scrolling Metroid is way overdue.

...You played Dementium on the DS? But that game hardly looks scary because of the low poly graphics. I have nothing against low-poly (on the contrary) but it doesn't work for Horror.

The DS has it's gimmicks but I think it's more suited for RTS games. And those aren't even on the thing because it's too much to handle!

I would say let's not fan those flames again, but considering how Other M caused a LOT of people to collectively sulk for the past five months it's probably too late to ask that. Seriously, the Gamefaqs board for that game is HILARIOUSLY pathetic

Good lord! Where did this guy find that SUIT?

The Ghost Ship Casino, clearly. Throw in some shoulder pads and I bet he glides right through water.

Metroid 3DS intro:

(Samus is seen lying in bed. She wakes with a start)

Samus: What a horrible dream! Why would I have ever respected Adam if he was like that? Why wouldn't I use my Varia suit to save my own life? Why would I follow orders so slavishly? Thank goodness I'm awake now!
That would probably be the happiest moment of my life.

I thought Other M was okay, but it butchered Samus as a character, and...well, honestly, with classics like Super and Prime setting the bar, "okay" doesn't cut it for the Metroid series.
