If you’re like a me who hasn’t kept up a ton with Metroid, you probably don’t know a whole lot about Metroid Prime: Federation Force. Since its unveiling, the 3DS title has remained shrouded in mystery for quite some time. Only one factor has remained a constant during its existence, which is that the game is unlike any other Metroid to date. Ditching the series’ iconic feeling of isolation and turning more towards four-player multiplayer, it attempts to reach for the stars and try something new. Therein lies the recurring problem with Federation Force, however. While the new ideas are fun, they offer equally as many bonuses as they do flaws.
Even more off-screen Severed footage has emerged based on its Gamescom 2016 appearance. Have a look at the game below.

As part of the sale and transistion, current CEO Howard Lincoln has retired from his daily duties and been replaced by John Stanton as the chairman and CEO, who will also act as a Major League Baseball Control Person for the franchise. Lincoln will continue to represent Nintendo’s ownership interests for the team, acting as a member of the FAE Board of Directors. The financial impact of the sale to Nintendo will be incorporated into the company’s next quarterly financial report.
Update (8/19): BlockForm is 329 blocks. That amounts to 41.125MB.
Original (8/18): We originally heard about the platformer BlockForm last June. In Europe, it’s now scheduled for release on August 25. The game will cost €4.99.
It’s worth mentioning that BlockForm will only be playable on New 3DS. We also are unsure if the Wii U version is still happening.
