That makes the situation even more pathetic than it already is. For a franchise as serious as Metroid, the fans are acting like a bunch of huge babies compared to the fans like to play games featuring a big, goofy gorilla.
Anyway, to bring a bit more positivity back into this E3 discussion, how come there isn't that much talk about this Cuphead game? I thought it was interesting when it was first announced, but after looking at the recent footage, I'm dying to play this game at least once! Even without trying to differentiate from other 2-D platformers by being all about boss battles, I bet this game will still sell and end up getting positive reviews through the artstyle alone. With the exception of coloring the characters with Photoshop, they actually created that art style by hand and went through great lengths just to emulate a product from that time period (including hiring a jazz band to record music with recording techniques from the 1930s). It makes me want to see more games stray away from the pixels and CGI models to give the cartoon ascetic more love.
