Welp, guess I'm not a Metroid fan. (Metroid: Other M related)

Welcome to the life of a Sonic Fan.

Seriously though speaking from my experiences. A series has to produce several bad titles, one after another. To be considered doomed.

True it only took one bad game to ruin Sonic (Sonic Cycle is rampant), Megaman X (franchise was even canceled up till about a few years ago or recently), Pac Man (not 100% sure on this one), Final Fantasy (arguably it's not exactly ruined but it lost some respect gameplay wise in the eyes of quite a few fans), ect.

But that doesn't mean it will always happen. KH 358/2 may be the only bad KH game the series ever had. And that's arguable considering the mixed reviews I've read on it. Birth By Sleep is seen as pretty decent by most reviews (gameplay wise). Sonic's on the road to recovery, and Megaman X9 seems very likely to happen and be a homage to the old SNES X games. FF 14 and Versus 13 are looking to be great titles.

My point is, unless the next 3+ Metroid games flop hard. It's no where near ruined just yet.

Abuh? Lost respect gameplay-wise how? The gameplay is different in every game! You don't like one, wait for the next one! If you're waiting for a repeat, you're not a fan of the series, just one of a particular game. I mean I know there are a lot of tards out there who think FF7 "is" Final Fantasy, but they're just tards. It's not even the best of the series by a long shot.
