OK, putting the godawful story to one side...

Why is Samus shitting herself?

You know, I've never noticed that before.

I mean, fuck, there's an entire load bulging out the bottom of her knickers.

Here's some eye-bleach.

Bless you user. That seemed fair.

Oh god damn it.

I think the problem at heart of Metroid's downfall is a culture cultivated in Nintendo's internal development where arrogant developers get the notion in their heads that the only reason they should have to make a game is if it does something new to challenge themselves. That's why, ever since the Gamecube and GBA, we have continually gotten games that spit in the face of their respective franchises. Other M is just a continuation of this general trend.

If you just want to fuck around, go into the freeware scene. A commercial developer should try to serve its customers.

Oh no, you don't get to play that card with this game. This game fucked up everything related to Metroid and wasn't even a good Metroid game in the process.

Shitty management will make even a good studio turn out shit.

Either that or they think it's not worth making a new game unless it does something 'new', even if it's not a good idea. I think they took the wrong lesson from the Wii- that gimmicks sell games, not quality. Not hard to blame them given it sold like crack, but you'd think they'd realise by now it was lightning in a bottle.

If you look at the majority of nintendo interviews this is the vibe you get, especially the time when shiggy said 'i could make halo!'. It bet everyone who read that thinking PROVE IT when he said that, and I fucking hate halo.

I thought you were fucking joking about the kind of artistic smear effect going on and then I looked closer.

Hi Bob. Going to say we're sexist for not liking it are we?
