Metroid E3 Evidence?

Recently we all saw Retro studios redesign their website with a new look, only weeks before E3.

Now this week we saw the Metroid website get taken down. If you visit www.metroid.com you are presented with this screen:

Either the website has been taken down for an update, or there's a problem at Nintendos end. None of Nintendos other sites have been undergoing problems like this, and only weeks before E3 it's hard to beleive this is a coincidence.

But with only two weeks to go it won't be long before we find out.

Retro is hard at work on something but I don't believe its more Metroid, although I wouldn't complain if that is the case.

yeah same here. cant be metroid. could be an online spinoff though. i think it could be the zelda spinoff and factor 5 would have the new starfox because they made the starwars game and starfox is similar.

yeah, but if its just an online spinoff i would be rather extatic, i would love to play it online!

I've never played metroid 1, 2, or 3. I played the one on the nes, but since I got my Wii, I will try and get the first two for GC and the 3rd for Wi..

i wouldnt care what those Xbox360 hooligans would say, give me capture the flag, slayer, king of the hill, etc.
give me the ability to choose between samus, space pirate, and galactic fed. troopers.
give me customizable armour for each type of character.

I told myself Metroid will not be at E3...but could it be?

Could it be the very Metroid:Hunters for Wii that I have been begging for?

Metroid: Hunters would be the real Halo for Wii.

It would also be cool for a new 2D Metroid and Pinball for WiiWare.

I could see Retro doing the Zelda spin off but I don't know about Factor 5 and Metroid. If that was the case Kid Icarus would be internally developed by Nintendo then?

Lets hope it has some decent online play.

Let's hope it's online at all, and even announced.
