Retro Studios may return to the Metroid series in the future

August 27th, 2009 Posted in News, Wii, Written by Valay

This information comes from the Retro Studios video tour/developer interview which we posted yesterday…

“Of course I’m sad to see her go. But those things have a way of creeping back. I think Retro will always be associated with the Metroid Prime franchise. And who knows, maybe we’ll do another one some day.” – Michael Kelbaugh, President & CEO of Retro Studios

Personally, I would love to see Retro work on one more Metroid game. For now I’m happy that they’re developing something different, but I know that I’ll always remember Retro for successfully handling Samus’ transition from 2D to 3D.

    Anyone else notice the Zelda shield/sword on the wall? Well, I guess there’s no way you didn’t. It’s the only piece of non-Metroid featured in the video though.

    I’m guessing it’s probably true that Retro worked on the title for a while like Casamassina said. Hopefully they influenced/inspired the Zelda team working on it now a bit.

    In the meanwhile, we have absolutely no clue what they’re working on now :(

    Maybe we’ll hear about them at the next E3? I remember Reggie said that they are working, although that’s pretty obvious.

    i love the metroid series i have every metroid game there is 1 of each game all but metroid prime trilogy to me metroid II,super metroid,metroid fusion,metroid prime 2 echoes are all interesting to me but the rest i ve played a hundred times and dont get bored with them i just wish i was able to get one action figure but its tough times and that might not happen ow well but super metroid is the best i think cause i like the classics well better stop yapping write me back retro studios and i hope i get metroid prime trilogy for x-mas.
