I’d expect it to be at least a solid experience, so that’s not really a surprise there. But boy, is it ugly. Not just technically, but the style.

But why stick the Metroid name on it? If it was just a PR move it was a very poorly calculated one. Still, if the game is good I hope the attention it receives will be enough for Nintendo to dust off the license again; it would be a crime not to have a Metroid side by side with LoZ: Breath of the Wild.

Welcome fellow kpop fan!

I agree with that, but even then, as cool as AM2R is, it’s FAR from preservation. It’s a remake, not a remaster, that’s porting a game designed for the old puke-green Game Boy into modern(ish) gameplay mechanics and pace, particularly inspired by Zero Mission/Fusion.

I know it’s not the popular choice but: Fusion.

I enjoyed your points Heather. But could you imagine a world where IP is not protected and we have Merio and Danky Kang games floating around.

I’m pretty sure most theaters in America banned bringing cosplay weapons of any kind after the Dark Knight Rises shooting tragedy. I know that when I’ve been to some of my local theaters during large opening nights, I saw signs making it clear that they don’t allow weapons of any kind, no matter how fake they look…

I’m sorry but if you bring a rifle like that onto public transport in a major city then you are creating a disturbance. Even if it’s not a real one most people can’t actually distinguish that with a glance and even the red safety tip is a ridiculous enough measure it means nothing. If he had done this at the premiere…

He was charged with being in possession of an air gun, if I recall from the article.

Don’t care if you’re cosplaying—you don’t bring something that looks like a goddamned rifle on mass transit. Or even to a f*cking movie theater. Have we not learned these goddamned lessons yet?

Seriously, this popped up on the “You may also like” sidebar for some reason, and I cannot tell if I’m missing a joke or if this is really a Jezebel “It’s fun to hit your partner” post. Am I in bizarro world?

It is bananas that this post, in this tone specifically, exists.
