What are people expecting? These type of things don't get updates every month. People have gotten so entitled when it comes to gaming news and I hate how it is nowadays.
Agree. People are too impatient and it does no good. Their expectations become unrealistic. I can bet some people already want a new Zelda game while it's unreasonable to expect this now. Good example of how people disregard reason to prefer their selfish entertainment.
@@wrosebrock leakers have confirmed that's not the case, it's a simple Nintendo problem of scheduling appropriate dates for each of the games needing to release, apparently according to leakers they moved the release date of MP2ER to fit the release date of MP3CR..
I’m ready for Metroid Prime 4. I finished all chronological previous games: Metroid: Zero Mission Metroid Prime (Remastered) Metroid Prime Hunters Metroid Prime 2: Echoes (Trilogy) Metroid Prime 3: Corruption (Trilogy) Metroid Prime: Federation Force (Go ahead and laugh your butts off at this one.)
Crossing my fingers they drop Metroid Prime 2 and 3 Remastered! If they don’t do that I’ll have to just watch story recaps of those games before playing 4, but I’d rather play them myself.
These 2 months of "silence" is gonna be like how we wait for the 2017 switch presentation, many speculation and leaks keep going around and by the time the direct starts, we already can easily speculate the price, release date, and even some launch games of Switch 2.
It's really sad so many gaming outlets and big youtubers hate Switch 2 reveal. This might be a sign Switch will be a flop like WiiU. Anxious time for Nintendo fans indeed.
Also if you thought the Switch didn't get any hate in its early days you're VERY wrong. People memed the shit out of the Switch constantly making the flaws of the hardware and that their so-called Switches would melt and constantly crash..
PH Brazil says we're getting something in February, a Direct in his words. Normally we'd get a General Direct the day after the February Investors meeting so that would mean a direct a week from today.
I love the idea of switch 2 having prime 4 as a launch title. My kids grew up with the switch and are looking for games a bit more mature and complex now.
my predictions is: Mid-Late Feb they give us a small Swatch direct, (thats what we will call the old switch in a few months). This will mostly be to show off xenoblade, and shadow drop prime 2 and 3. But. The way they drop them is something like: they do a very very short prime 4 teaser, and say "look forward to a more in depth look at this game in april ;]. until then you might want to try this" enter the prime 2 and 3 trailer.
I think that the main reason for Nintendo to have a regular direct on February, is not just Metroid prime 4 (I would be glad to know more about it) but something related to the switch online service because there’s a lot of anual subscriptions due to expire during the end of February and March. And Nintendo will try to keep the most amount of subscribers in looking forward to the switch 2 launch. Sort about my rusty English.
Feb direct will show a bunch of games that will probably have some nice switch 2 upgrades to them. I'm not worried about an info drought. We will not only get new games now but the investors meeting may reveal some information and I'd assume the software leaks from third party will ramp up massively as we approach april. First party stuff may also leak due to marketing teams needing to know details. That's when people like pyoro come back out of the woodwork with their sources. Also everyone start saving money now lol
A lot to look forward to before April 2nd though... March is a big month for Nintendo w/ the release of Xenoblade Chronicles X: DE and Mario Bros 40th anniversary which may also get it's own direct... and February we have Pokemon Day in which we may finally see Pokemon Legends Z-A... and potentially a Switch 1 direct...
I think a February Direct is a near lock, rumors or leaks notwithstanding. I mean, we have two games dated for this year and one already came out, and the other’s due in March. And let’s assume Switch 2 is a June release- Nintendo needs to get showing off the games they have to tide us over until Switch 2 releases then. Even if it releases a month after the Direct in May, they’ll need something on the current Switch in the months that they have empty currently. Do I think we could get something before April? Possibly, yeah. We got Pokémon Day in February and they might have a Switch 2 game there, or Mario Day could have more news on Mario Kart or something else for Switch 2 as a tease- it is Mario’s 40th anniversary, after all, so we could see big things there. Or it could be silence until April. I dunno, but I’m pretty certain we at least get a general Direct in February here for showing what we’ll be playing or can play in the first half of the year while we wait for Switch 2.
Could Samus talk in Prime 4? I know a lot of people don't want her to because of her portrayal in Other M but I think they need to give it another chance, she's not Link she does talk and I hate it when people say that Samus is a silent protagonist because she's not, that's like saying Leon Kennedy is a silent protagonist! also bring back Jessica Martin to voice Samus I loved her Samus voice.
Yeah... No, she's definitely better as a silent protagonist, don't want any sketchy woke scripts like Resident Evil god that game's dialogues are so cheesy. It's more immersive if she doesn't talk and if she does we need Garcia and Hale to do the sound effects. "She's not like Link" wait what I'm sorry but Link talks a lot more than Samus, just as much as Mario. Also, her not talking comes back to her canonical manga where after Ridley kills her parents she just loses the ability to speak like at all, it's only when the Thoha helps her she only starts to speak gradually..
I just feel like it cuts any immersion that's all, add dialogue for Samus Aran to the famous Metroid Suit Scene and it doesn't work because it cuts the immersion
The true purpose for Xenoblade Chronicles X is getting the entire game on a physical cartridge! I'm conflicted to get it because I kind of want to finish the full xenoblade collection for the Switch physically, but at the same time the game does not look good whatsoever and the only fun part looks like flying around in the mechs... which means, probably just skip and get Atelier Yumia and Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma when they come out =)
Weren't we suppose to get more news about Metroid Prime 4? It's been over half a year I think. Didn't they say they are now able to release more info about it?
What are you talking about? They NEVER said that, they said to wait a little longer. Also, it's not been half a year, reality is that trailer two years ago and was just never shown to us..
First of all we're NOT going to see MP4 in the upcoming direct, leakers have confirmed that 100%. All the leakers have said is that it's going to be MP2ER and MAYBE MP3CR if possible. Judging by the leaks and the MPTR book coming in the Summer it's likely that they've moved the date of MP3CR to Summer 2025. They could also merge the Zelda and Metroid bundle together like they've done in the past with WW and MP2E..
lol Nintendo is being force to announce it release, the leak for the witch 2 have been crazy we basically know everything down to the motherboard for the console before the release, it was so bad that that Nintendo promise their investor they announce it by the end of last year lol. these the first case i seen leaker and investor force one of the big 3 to announce their console again their will
I will not be buying the new console if they’re not gonna come out with a new animal crossing I don’t understand why they expect us to play an old five year-old game to a new console. It’s just unfair. They’re probably gonna end up coming out with a board game a lame spinoff game like what they always do. I hope not.😂
They're not going to release Baby Crossing immediately lmao, they know it's a terrible decision. At this point, they need a BIG push so games from franchises like Metroid, Mario, F-Zero, Star Fox, Kid Icarus, Earthbound, Smash (unfortunately), maybe Pikmin, Okami 2, MH Wilds, etc...
So…can we all survive the “silence” before the April Direct? Or will we get a different Direct in February?
Nintendo does have an investors’ meeting next week.
Yeah 4 days until February it’s crazy how fast days go
@@lkayde1996 feels like a time warp. But also that means we’re closer to MP4 and the April Direct. So that’s a good thing!
@ true dat
6:49 yes
I kinda see Metroid 2&3 remastered announced in February and prime 4 being a holiday cross gen title

Being a kid born in the early 90’s I remember having to wait for new articles of Nintendo Power and Game Informer to get my gaming news.
bring nintendo power back!!
I completely agree lmao
Cheer up
Agree. People are too impatient and it does no good. Their expectations become unrealistic. I can bet some people already want a new Zelda game while it's unreasonable to expect this now. Good example of how people disregard reason to prefer their selfish entertainment.
Time flies. It'll be 2 months after the release before we know it.
I’m praying for that February direct 🙏
It’s about time for Metroid prime 2/3 HD!
Dude at this point if Prime 2 and Prime 3 do come out on Switch they're gonna be full on Remasters like Prime 1.
Arlo has an interesting video that they could have been scrapped or delayed indefinitely. Hope not
if you think nintendo will release them together, you're delusional

@@enorma29 exactly, it'll be their worst decision yet. Those two games don't have something that's exclusive from MP1..

Metroid Prime Hunters
Metroid Prime 2: Echoes (Trilogy)
Metroid Prime 3: Corruption (Trilogy)

Love to see it! Also I think Fed Force is a solid game. I’m glad you played it. 👍

I managed to complete all the missions on Solo mode
That’s pretty amazing because I remember some of those being REALLY hard solo. I had to play with people online to beat it back when it launched.

I did unlock the Hypermode Mod
(You have to complete Challenge mode in Blast Ball once to earn it.)
@@Ruleof2Review
It will definitely be tough in Hard Mode
Crossing my fingers they drop Metroid Prime 2 and 3 Remastered! If they don’t do that I’ll have to just watch story recaps of those games before playing 4, but I’d rather play them myself.

I believe prime 4 will be a cross gen release and announce in detail together with switch 2 in April direct.
I believe it's a TP Situation where TP released on the Wii first THEN on the GameCube. That's my prediction..
We'll almost certainly get some amount of info on Pokemon Day 2/27. Maybe nothing other than announcements for new games but it'll be something.
If the rumored February Direct turns out to be real, I'd bet Nintendo would shadow drop Prime 2 Echoes right then and there.
Give me windwaker and twilight princess if this direct comes true in February
I don't think there will be a direct for Metroid, they will save it for Switch 2 direct
I'm thinking the same
It's really sad so many gaming outlets and big youtubers hate Switch 2 reveal. This might be a sign Switch will be a flop like WiiU. Anxious time for Nintendo fans indeed.
Bro sorry to tell you reality but nobody's hating on this console.
Also if you thought the Switch didn't get any hate in its early days you're VERY wrong. People memed the shit out of the Switch constantly making the flaws of the hardware and that their so-called Switches would melt and constantly crash..
Also the WiiU didn't flop it was a successful console tho not as successful as the Wii..
@groudonor12 so Switch 2 has a huge possibility to repeat WiiU failure no?
19 million views and 1 million likes in 12 days says differently
Thankfully I have MH Wilds end of Feb which will help make March fly by lol.
Agreed. That will consume my life.

Hello number 1 Metroid fan of all time!

Prob getting a direct (hopefully with first parties) in feb, pokemon presents in feb, Xeno X in March then April, maybe shadow drop in feb
I hope in February we get prime 2 and 3 HD

April 2nd they never said it was a Switch 2 exclusive direct, just that it is a Nintendo Direct with Switch 2 stuff in it.

After 2 months this whole aspect of waiting will be over. Before you know it switch 2 will be here.
Shot of tequila every time you say: “I already own this game”.

hi Rule of 2 Review
Pokemon Day Direct at the end of February though.
I've been waiting on the Nintendo switch 2 for a year and half, three or four years is a bit much isn't it?
It's only like 80 days from the time of the announcement. That's not long. Lol.
Agreed.
I think for next 2 years the switch 1 will still get older remakes games
February Direct with a new Prime 4 trailer and MP 2 drop 👌
Leakers have confirmed there's no Prime 4 in February, Prime 2 however 😏😏
I dont care for Switch 1 anymore nothing Nintendo could show in a February Direct for Switch 1 will make me care i am focused on the April 2 Direct
Why till April man why does Nintendo want us to wait that long for more Nintendo Switch 2 info we need something at least.
long term starvation leads to voracity
Nintendo loves anticipation. It’s why we care when their games do come out.
If it is indeed coming then we won’t get JUST Metroid Prime 4 but also Prime 2 and 3 ports/remasters with the former more than likely shadowed dropped
First of all we're NOT going to see MP4 in the upcoming direct, leakers have confirmed that 100%. All the leakers have said is that it's going to be MP2ER and MAYBE MP3CR if possible.

I am curious whether Nintendo will drop the first Mario Bros Movie 2 trailer on Mario Day
To the Base Switch Freaks you only have TWO MONTHS that's right TWO MONTHS that's all your spotlight that's left..
