Nintendo scrap Metroid Prime 4 development

you can play trash like Other M if you prefer Samus talking if you want to.

Plus a story with a silent protagonist still requires writing and storyboards.

... except the "story" in Samus Returns is "explore a bunch of caves". We've covered this. Somebody wrote it in the same sense that somebody writes save Dreamland/Mushroom Kingdom/your bananas every time Nintendo churns out a Kirby/Mario/DK game.

they remade a Game Boy game from 1991 that never really had a story to begin with.

they didn't exactly have much to work with.

Just leave him to his little universe. He doesn't understand I don't take him seriously and never will

Yeah, I have to say, the Prime fanboy in me is equal parts disappointed and, I dunno, cautiously excited? Disappointed at the delay, but hopeful that Nintendo seems to feel Metroid is important enough to not shit out a mediocre game for money.

Cautiously because, being a Metroid fan, you learn to expect nothing, and just be happy if you get something halfway decent.
