What if Wayforward (specifically Matt Bozon and the Shantae team) did the next Metroid, and it had this artstyle.
That'd be cool.
>>330628074
That looks like garbage though
>>330628074
No, I like Shantae games
and no
just
no
and that artsyle has nothing to do with it
>>330628074
Abdomen and chest area is fucked up
Rest is fine
>>330628074
it'll fuck up the series even moreso
>>330628197
That's not an answer, anon.
I don't think Wayforward are really anything special. They're good, but they just don't have that special something that pushes them over into amazing.
>>330628074
That artstyle doesn't fit Metroid
It would be almost as bad as Federation Force
>>330628074
Wayforward makes great games, and the Shantae series is a great Metroid-like, but their usual style is too chibi for it to work.
HOWEVER, if they were to do a hand-drawn 2D art style similar to their work on A Boy and His Blob, Ducktales Rematered, or Batman: tBatB, it could work. Just as long as they never use a chibi style. Stylized is fine, like Double Dragon Neon, but never chibi.

Shantae and the Pirate's Curse was spectacular, I thought. All the Shantae games were great, but that one was just phenomenal
>>330628074
the game would probably be good but look completely wrong
Wayforward should be in charge of a new Wario Land.

I'd support this 100%.

The mazes would be short and boring, but it would probably be the best Metroid title in years.Seriously, the games are fun, but they are pretty light for exploration platformers.
Metroid isn't supposed to look cutesy.
It works for Shantae, but not Metroid
Get Treasure to make it. They need work
>>330628074
give them Wario instead
>>330628074
This looks like crap so I wouldn't support it. Metroid games aren't supposed to be cute looking. At least not until you best the game fast enough or collect enough upgrades to unlock some cool art or see her take off her suit. I'd like them to do a Wario game. The Shantae world setup could work really well for Wario game.

>the best Metroid title in years
It's not like that would be a hard thing to achieve. All it would have to do is beat out Metroid Prime 3, and that was probably the weakest of the Prime series (although I know a lot of people didn't like 2 because they couldn't git gud).

>That art style
Wayforward has shown they can make a Metroid like game.
>>330628074
Depends in how on how they handle it.
Likely better than what Nintendo does with Metroid now.
