If you choose to play one, you will never be able to play the other. If you don't choose you'll never play a Metroid game again. What is you answer?

Metroid 6, I really loved Metroid Dread.

But secretly and openly I wish that Nintendo gives Zelda2-remake to MercurySteam and then they are allowed to create a successor to Zelda2 similar how they did with Metroid 2 and Dread.

I’ve never played a Prime game, so easily Metroid 6 for me. Especially after Dread. That game was awesome.

That's a tough one. Metroid Prime is a unique series because I don't think there are any other metroidvania shooters. Meanwhile, the 2D metroidvania genre is very strong. So with this in mind I think I might prefer MP4. However, to me the MP trilogy got weaker with each subsequent game to the point where I didn't even play too much of MP3, while Metroid Dread is one of my favourite games from recent years. Basically, if both games are good I prefer MP4 but I would trust a new 2D metroid game more.

Gotta get that Prime 4 in my veins. I've got that 2D Metroid Fix thanks to Dread (and recently starting AM2R) But until they give us Prime 2 or 3 OR 4 on switch, I'll be itching for more

Metroid 6. The prime games are great, but I grew up playing the 2d Metroids over and over again, and they're what Metroid is for me.

Also the long development cycle of prime 4 has me worried.
