I have been watching some streams of Samus Returns, and it looks damn good actually. More importantly it feels like a natural 2d Metroid game. Mercury Steam has made some terrible games, but this doesn't look like one of them.

The most impressive thing about Samus Returns is the difficulty level of the game. Metroid games should be hard, and this fame looks brutal in places.

I suppose the game can be critiqued for being very much the same Metroid games that were made before like Zero Mission or Fusion, but enough has been added to keep it fresh.

Basically the same complaints about the static nature of this game could be made with the Legend of Zelda games until Breath of the Wild, or Ocarina of Time bought Zelda into the third dimension.

Either way a new 3D Prime game is coming probably in 2019 for The Switch so hopefully we get more 2d games along with the Prime 3d games. A Switch 2d Metroid would be sweet.
