    Honestly I forgot about MP4 until like last night, mostly due to all the Switch 2 hype.

    I think people have been waiting so long, it’s become normal. The anticipation won’t really hit until we get a more substancial trailer for it.

    Eh, I don’t really care. Most of these awards are incredibly bias.

    actually that’s Kinda crazy why didn’t it make the list it’s been hyped up for some time now the series has consistently gotten great reviews and been goty contenders like it seems like a massive oversight

    Why would anyone be hyped for a game that’s been stuck in development hell for this long?

  6. MonochromeTyrant

    These awards don’t mean anything anyway, so it doesn’t matter.

    An Awards Show not knowing or giving props without being bought?  I’m shocked ya’ll.

    Makes sense. Metroid has never been a big seller. The trailer for Metroid Prime 4 was also very underwhelming in my opinion. There wasn’t anything we hadn’t already seen before in previous Prime games aside from a fresh coat of graphics.

    Well to be fair there’s a lot of interesting games that are supposed to come out next year already…. Plus we all know that Nintendo has a bunch of other titles they have hidden away to reveal later for the switch 2 launch year. And let’s not forget the fact that people have been waiting too long for this game, So it only makes sense that it isn’t that highly anticipated by a lot of people except for hardcore metroid fans

    Two things, game awards aren’t exactly important. The other, Metroid fans finding out their series is actually relatively niche.

    Yeah, its the nr one game to be excited for. Seen as one of the best games ever made.

    I did see the list of awards, the list is on many levels unrealistic. Take them with a grant of salt

    So the people making these awards aren’t looking forward to it. Oh well, who cares about their opinion?

  13. Mojo_Fro

    I’m confused. There’s an AWARD category specifically for games that don’t exist?

  14. Spiritgreen

    I won’t believe it until it’s here and I expect to play it on Switch 2 which we know even less about.

    When the time comes though…

  15. SluttyDev

    Honestly I’d rather have a Dread sequel. That game was amazing.

    Metroid fans refuse to realize how small the Metroid player base is. News at 11

    “Most Wanted Game” seems like a terrible award category – you don’t see similar awards in movie, TV, or music. I’m not sure why video games have to be so hyped up

  18. Chiodos_Bros

    Neither did Elder Scrolls 6. Because neither are even close to being completed (or probably started).

  19. rexshen

    We need more than one trailer to get that award. We need like two more and a release date.

  20. SolidusAbe

    my hype died like 5 years ago. it looks cool and im gonna play it but it just took way too long

  21. OkImpression5985

    I can understand why. Like Silksong its been so long that the hype train is only luke warm.

  22. Hugo_Prolovski

    after seeing how most old Nintendo ips went downhill the last decade i can understand that Metroid prime fans dont want to see theier franchise becoming bland as well

  23. FlamingoFuzzy6089

    That’s what they get for waiting goddam long

  24. TubaTheG

    Kind of wild but I get it.

    This year was the first proper time we actually saw Prime 4.

  25. MarcsterS

    On one hand, I understand as only just recently did MP4 finally get a trailer after so many years. GTA6 was in a similar situation, but is more popular.

    On the other hand…the nomination list for that category is huge. They REALLY couldn’t replace one of the more unknown games in the list with MP4?

  26. Although there’s some great games in Metroid it’s not really a huge franchise

  27. odranreb

    The game that’s coming out for the switch 3?

  28. Regirex

    Metroid Prime 4’s hype didn’t survive the announcement of them scrapping their progress four years ago. the hype didn’t have the staying power of Elder Scrolls 6

  29. logica_torcido

    An embarrassing omission on their part but Metroid getting snubbed for awards is nothing new
