Sakamoto says “please be patient a little while longer” regarding Metroid Dread
“It’s always difficult when people bring up Metroid Dread. The only thing people have heard about the game are rumors. We never had an official announcement at E3 or anything like that. I think there was at one point where a little bit of information leaked, but now we don’t know how to really talk about the project. All I can really say is that I wish I could put an end to the rumors! Oh, I’m not denying the existence of any documents that got out. What we’re doing right now, we’re waiting and watching and reading the comments to see what people are interested in before we make any comment on the project. So please be patient a little while longer.” – Metroid producer Yoshio Sakamoto
Sakamoto has already said that the possibility of a 2D Metroid for DS had been discussed in the past. But it’s strange that Sakamoto is so coy when Metroid Dread is mentioned by the press. There’s still a lot of mystery behind Dread, even though it was announced years ago. It’d be really neat if the title was eventually released for the DS.
