Thank you Nintendo! FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!
2019??? Well you made us wait 8 years, guess we'll be waiting 10
Just add in a 3rd person view this time!
@BezBot Amazon has it listed for December 31st as the Yoshi game and others. So I guess it is a better scenario than just 2019. Up to now, just thought this was a speculation... it is truly coming.
@Turbo857 Like they did with Metroid: Other M, I loved that game, I usually don't like FPS, but it's mostly because of controls, the Wii had the ability to do it right with the motion+ but they just didn't quite do it right on the Prime 1-3, I'm hoping the Switch will offer better control of Samus and all the internal workings of the suit
It does not matter because the hopefully the world will end before it’s release 😡
By the look of it, there are no games for switch, just remakes, or announcements... I wasted my Christmas gift for nothing...
cant wait; omg!!!!!!!!
Late 2022 release date at best. Having herd no new news i just can't see this coming next year
Still nothing in mid 2021. Doubt we'll get any news this year
5 months later...still nothing. Hopefully this game will be good (when it releases). Let's hope for a game awards showcase.
2022 June 1st here
@SynapticFlow oh how this aged...
i forgot when this game was even announced but cant believe it was 2017 lol, as well at E3 which is now likely a past time
we out here 2023 ☠️ bruh
I think next direct is going to be it finally!
