GAMER LOUNGE 20XX (NO CASUALS!!)

[Pik]

Word on the street is there's going to be a Metroid announcement.

Hm.

Where is the street and who is the word

[Lemonray]

Spoiler

/v/

[Jermungandr]

Eh, I don't really look forward to Metroid news anymore. They're never going to have the same feel to them that the old games did.

[Lemonray]

Well, you never know, we might be nicely surprised one day.

I'm just hoping they learned from Other M.

[Jermungandr]

If Smash Bros is any indication, they didn't.

[Pik]

But the Smash team isn't the Metroid team...

[AuraLancer]

Word on the street is there's going to be a Metroid announcement.

Hm.

Where is the street and who is the word

Bird.

Bird is the word.

Maybe it'll be a Metroid Prime HD remake.

[TomGuycott]

You're all wrong: it's the last DLC characters for Hyrule Warriors, being Samus and Ridley in his Sports Tingle outfit.

In all seriousness, what I REALLY want to see in this direct is info on Star Fox. I mean, it's coming out before the new Zelda and I feel like we know even less about it.

Extra points for any Majora's Mask 3D extra info (like NEW stuff not in the original game), and any footage of Smash DLC.

Melee HD.

"As an added bonus, we had decided to fix all of the glitches that were previously in the game, especially the one that allowed characters to slide at an incredibly quick pace. We have also removed L-Canceling in an effort to make the game more friendly to new players. Please understand."

[NICKtendo DS]

I'd like to know more about what the wave 3 and 4 amiibo are compatible with except HW and Smash Bros.

[Kriven]

I'm hoping we finally hear something about Captain Toad's supposed Amiibo use. Also hoping we see some Virtual Console news, like if they're ever going to actually give us those N64 games.

I think if there is some Metroid in the works, it's something they'll be saving for e3. The announcement mentions "Spring Releases", and I don't know if a Metroid game we haven't heard not a single peep about would be among them.

[Jermungandr]

I gotta agree with that presumption. Unless it's something like Samus' Amiibo getting a use in another game.

Majora's Mask is supposed to be released in the spring. I wonder if they'll bring up any new features for it.

[Kriven]

I'm almost 100% certain we'll get a segment detailing the ways Majora's Mask 3D will be optimized when played with the New 3DS.

[Kosheh]
