Metroid Prime series producer Kensuke Tanabe has revealed in the new Metroid Prime 1-3: A Visual Retrospective artbook that he would like to have more people experience the multiplayer mode they shipped with the GameCube classic, Metroid Prime 2. Tanabe says the developers put their heart and soul into developing the multiplayer and it wasn't a last minute addition.
"Retro finished the multiplayer mode without compromising on quality even under such challenging conditions," he wrote. "Being of its time, it was designed for local play, so the number of players who actually experienced it might not have been very large. If it is remade, I'd be delighted for more people to have the chance to experience it."
"After finishing Metroid Prime, Nintendo directed Retro Studios to complete the next project in as short a time as possible."
"Initially, there was a proposal to develop a multiplayer-focused Metroid Prime '1.5' (and ultimately, multiplayer was realised in Metroid Prime 2). However, Retro expressed a desire to create a robust, standalone sequel in Metroid Prime 2."
