How Bad User Interfaces Are Ruining Video Games And Other Wonderful Things 
She Tried To Make Good Video Games For Girls, Whatever That Meant Neogaf user Mama Robotnik has a habit of unearthing incredible Retro Studios Metroid art, and as a massive fan of Metroid Prime, I’m always appreciative. Personally I love this kind of thing, especially when it’s from a game/series that I truly adore. Some of this art is quite gorgeous, some of it gives a cool insight into development.
The Legend of Zelda is one the most successful video game franchises to ver come from Japan. It’s been mostly made by Nintendo studios in Kyoto, with some added efforts by Capcom, which is based in Osaka.
More from the Nintendo Q&A: it seems Mario Kart 3DS is being developed not solely by Nintendo, but as a collaboration between Nintendo and Retro, the team behind the Metroid Prime series. It’ll also run at 60fps.
At some point inbetween the release of Metroid Prime and Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, a proposal document was made for ‘Metroid 1.5′ a prospective Retro Studios title that added multiplayer and number of new mechanics to the prime franchise. Obviously the game was never released, but you can now download the original proposal document, and it makes for some fascinating reading.
I spent my entire saturday afternoon playing this game. My experience went like this…
-World 1: Hmm this is a bit boring – whatever, it’s Donkey Kong, I’ll keep going. -World 2: Yawn. I thought this game was supposed to be awesome. -World 3: WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING THIS GAME IS THE BEST THING EVER!
