It's been one month. There were the telltale signs of a flop all over this title in its first week. Do we now know just how big of a flop it was?
I mean shit, this game is lower on the Amazon sales rank than fucking Style Savvy Fashion Forward. I even like Style Savvy and I still know that it's anything but niche. And the two games came out on the same fucking day. FedForce is being outsold by a clothing store simulation.
>He says posting on Cred Forums - Video Games Is this a genuine post? Like are you actually thinking about what you're typing right now? >He doesn't want to discuss if Federation Force is the final nail in the metroid coffin
Daniel Reyes
Style Savvy is s tier
Ayden Cruz
>among real metroid fans
there hasn't been a consensus among metroid fans since Other M.
okay yeah, but here we're talking actual hard numbers.
Kayden Walker
It's the lowest-selling entry in a series not well-received in Japan. It's a pretty safe bet to say it fucking flopped.
Colton Lewis
>actual hard numbers not gonna happen considering how soft the sales were
Eli Parker
Actually, it seems most people bought the game digitally.
Jace White
where are you getting this info?
Joshua Clark
Once the butthurt over "not a real Metroid" wore off, it looked like it could be fun, but I'm not playing a fucking FPS on a 240p screen with a "nub" for a second stick
Thomas Nguyen
>Flopped critically >Flopped financially >Almost as big as a stain as Other M
Benjamin Lewis
You think so? I thought it looked slow as fuck.
Juan Taylor
Nintendo eshop charts.
Yes, the digital version of Federation Force did outsell Axiom Verge.
Xavier Reyes
Syle Savvy is fucking awesome. It deserve to have a thread every hour just for being SSS tier.
Brayden Long
That's pathetic.
Evan Cook
can you link where you found them? I'd like to see it for myself.
Xavier Green
Metroid has always been a boring overrated series
Super, fusion, zero mission
Snoreee
Jacob Walker
I disagree entirely but I respect your opinion.
Ethan Hall
you're not wrong
I wish I was more /fa/ so I could wow in this game
Nolan Perry
>among real Metroid fans
Asher Gonzalez
it was 40 fucking dollars. I was hyped to play it thinking it was a 15 dollars eshop game. had no interest after I learned the actual price, there was no excuse for that.
Luis Davis
>primefags still butthurt over Other M which was the first proper good Metroid since Zero Mission, Fusion, and Super
fuck off FPShitters
James Lewis
WHO'S LAUGHING NOW FAGGOT
Kevin Adams
>Other M fag acting like his opinion matters
L O L O L
Samuel Diaz
>haloidbabby acting as if he's relevant
Andrew Long
Yeah, well "Haloid" got 2 sequels, and 3 spinoffs, and Other M killed the series for 6 years
I'll let you do the simple math to figure out which one is more relevant
Jordan Hughes
>Over in Japan, the Media Create chart for the week of August 25th shows Federation Force missing the all-important Top 20 charts. No numbers were posted, meaning that the game sold worse than the 20th game charting, Nintendo’s Splatoon, which sold 4,441 copies that week.
Kayden Williams
Haloid killed the series the same way DmC did, only FPShitters are far more autistic and will buy anything that copies halo or CoD. DMCfags have standards at least.
Grayson Parker
prime is metroid by design than a shooter prove me wrong
Luis Watson
I appreciate your effort
why are you replying seriously?
Ayden Martin
>literally reskin halo with metroid character >it's metroid
try again troll
Xavier Price
>Haloid killed the series Wrong, if anything it provided a life-support. I say this being a 2D-metroidvania fag too.
Nintendo only caring about sales in a country that prefers 'cuter'/animu games is what killed it. Or at least resulted in its current status.
Carter Thomas
it'll be interesting to know for the sake of seeing how Nintendo might respond to the news.
Zachary Collins
It's a shame this game was a rushed out bomb made by a team that never should've touched the series. Between this and Hunters, I doubt Nintendo will ever attempt a Metroid spinoff again.
Thomas Robinson
>I doubt Nintendo will ever attempt a Metroid spinoff again This is a bad thing because? It's time for EPD to make Metroid 5 anyway.
Julian Adams
There are plenty of interesting things that could be done with the universe.
That is if anyone at Nintendo knew how to make a game that felt like it actually took place in that universe.
Jeremiah Gonzalez
I hope it doesn't reflect badly on NLG, they're really a good team, they just aren't meant to handle random side games.
Evan King
nice proof you really hit the nail on the head with that!
Luis Johnson
>mfw Federation Force is the final Metroid game
Dylan Johnson
You do know he genuinely thinks the game is a success because of digital sales and that a status as a My Nintendo reward would keep it alive right? He's that dense
Bentley White
Well they're hiring but there's no news of actual people jumping ship. I'm hoping that they do a quality game for the NX. Shiggy would probably convince Nintendo to spare them since he worked with them on Luigi's Mansion Dark Moon and that sold well. Hopefully they won't end up like NST.
Bentley Kelly
I'm not sure which would be worse, going out with other m or going out with fed force
I'd buy a Strikers 3 but who knows if they'll actually make it.
Owen Long
>Strikers 3 We don't need two Mario soccer games user :^)
Isaiah Powell
and yet for some reason this has golf and tennis in it as well as baseball. Why does this game exist, isn't it making multiple games obsolete by existing?
Thomas Murphy
They were advertised as "full games" IIRC
Aiden Campbell
eh?
Noah Clark
>Final boss of FF is Samus herself >What few people that bought this game literally killed of Samus
