I like Metroid and this game does look pretty solid, but honestly, after putting 30+ hours into Hollow knight, it a little stale to me. HK just captured everything I wanted out of a Metroidvania type game. It also went on for a really long time, so idk if I want to play another for awhile....

2017-09-13 04:40:07 +0000 UTCPlayed the demo for this at PAX and it totally changed my impressions of it (positively). Was my biggest surprise out of the expo! Cool to see the demo wasn't a fluke!

2017-09-12 16:29:24 +0000 UTCGreat review Ben and great editing Ian. Just a few thoughts: 1) Nintendo really has no reason to not release this day and date on the switch. None 2) I know you explained it in your review, but the counter just seems cheap and seems like it would make the game way too easy 3) Unless the 3D is very good, I have no idea why this wasn't just a 2D Metroid. The art style and aesthetic kind of bum me out :'( If it comes to Switch I will give it a try for sure, just thought those things were a bit weird
