Metroid Series Director Yoshio Sakamoto is considering a change of career direction. Sakamoto's last game was Tomodachi Life, but he has previously worked on no less than nine Metroid titles.
When CVG asked Sakamoto if he would return to game series that are more traditionally associated with his name, he replied:
"I do not intend to do so. There might [currently] be various tasks I might be involved in with past series. However, even if so I would always like to introduce new entertainment and new fun to those series.
I would like to satisfy fans of those series, but also working with other talented individuals I would like to create entertainment that's completely different and that brings new emotions. I would like to challenge myself in those unique directions."
Is Sakamoto making a mistake by changing direction, or are you pleased to hear he's pursuing new concepts?
