Episode 304 – Metroid Prime Series Producer Kensuke Tanabe Stepping Down: Our Thoughts and Reactions!

from Omega Metroid Podcast · host Omega Metroid

What a week for Metroid! We are going over a bombshell interview that Series Producer Kensuke Tanabe and a few other developers conducted with Japanese outlet Nintendo Dream, which Omega Metroid independently translated, where a whole slew of topics were discussed, with the most prominent piece of news being Tanabe confirming he will no longer produce games for Nintendo! Also discussed were Tanabe's successor, the level design philosophy of Metroid Prime 4, the inspiration behind the games ending, what Sylux was up to while on Viewros, and a whole lot more! All this, PLUS our first glimpse at how Metroid Prime 4's sales are doing, and a message of hope for everyone affected by the brutal ICE murders of the last several weeks.
