Metroid Dread looks legit terrifying, and I’m all for it. This is gonna be a GOTY contender

[megarhombus]

I didnt expect Nintendo to drop this at e3 this year but holy shit was this a welcome surprise

[aychfriday]

Haven’t played a Metroid game since the Gameboy (didn’t even complete it).

This will be my first one since then and I’m looking forward to actually completing it.

Everything
I think (Note: I haven't played the game ahead of time)
The Damaged E.M.M.I: gives nothing
The White E.M.M.I: Gives Spider Magnet
The Green E.M.M.I: Morph Ball
The Yellow E.M.M.I: Speed Booster and Shinespark
The Blue E.M.M.I: Ice Missle
The Purple E.M.M.I: Gravity Suit
Also Draygon is Returning (probably as a Cameo)

I beat Metroid Fusion for the first time a couple months back in preparation. Fusion is awesome. It's really got me hyped

[silentsmashbros]

I need a Metroid collection to be released on Switch. Me and Metroid Fusion have unfinished business.

[TevyaSmolka]

I can hardly wait for Metroid Dread its going to be really awesome

[RadJack]

I have only played super Metroid and I am still excited for DREAD

[yaboyreege]

I really hope to see Ridley make an appearance in Dread!

[claycountryxwing]

I ordered a switch to just play dread. Will have to get botw as well to make it worth while 🤣

[disneyvillainsfan]

I never played a Metrioid game before, but I'm sure this will be a great game to start with! (Don't worry, I'll watch timeline videos of previous Metrioid Games so I'll know this Metrioid Universe as well as The Mushroom Kingdom and Hyrule.)

[dragowolfraven]

I am excited to learn more about the Chozo as they always made me curious with the rogue faction of the allegedly peaceful race in Samus Returns considering that they created the Metroids.

[joskiller]

Bro i hope there's a sa-x that would be cool

[richardpauly]

Played all the metriods games I can't wait for metriod dread and metriod prime 4 in a couple of years I bet
