Hmm, I've heard rumors about a so called "Metroid: Dread" game coming out. IGN said it was coming, now nothing! But then, there was an Easter Egg in Metroid Prime 3 Corruption:

Perhaps a game after Fusion? We definitely need one!

What do you think?

According to the Metroid Wiki, there's been very little official information regarding Project Dread. (Which is a totally cool name that I'm going to call it until we get some official information) Yoshio Sakamoto doesn't deny that the game is in development, but is still very tight-lipped on what it is. Anything you may hear about it is just rumors.

Perhaps Nintendo is hushing him up? They did that to a Pokemon Forum a while back.

EDIT: Perhaps a Metroid game for the 3DS?

I don't think they can. He created Metroid with Gunpei Yokoi, and he directed Super Metroid, Zero Mission, Fusion, Other M, and supervised the production of the Prime series. If Sakamoto isn't saying anything about Project Dread, it's either because he doesn't want to, or because there's nothing to say.

Who knows? (Aside from the people who may or may not be developing it)

Oh yes they can. If you're working on something Nintendo, Nintendo can hush you up real quick! We probably have to wait for E3 next year. The 3DS will be out *Probably shouldn't get too close, it could eat you!* and so will the games for it.

EDIT: Off Topic!: Hmm, I wonder what would happen if someone quoted someone so many times, I wonder if you couldn't be able to read the quoted post?

No, they can't. This is a video game company, not the CIA.

Quote pyramids are frowned upon here. I've seen massive ones, though. It's impressive, at first, but you see one Pyramid, you've seen them all.

Quite true. They are not the CIA. But they do have lawyers.

They do. And they can't sue because one of their top developers decided to announce a game he's supposedly been working on for five years.

Hmm, I wonder if Nintendo would be so bold and make the game developers sign a non-disclosure form to make sure none of the fandom gets a hold of Project Dread news etc., perhaps this is the reason for using all of the secrecy?

The guy who didn't deny Project Dread's existence, had said himself, that Nintendo was NOT making a 2D Metroid game for DS, not making a 2D game, that only means one of two things:

1). Its not coming at all and Nintendo is feeding us a bunch of junk rumors as a disguise for a different game in development.

2). That they are making Project Dread a 3D game.


Those are the reasons I could find.
