Nintendo says no plans for another Metroid remake right now

Coming from producer and Metroid franchise co-creator Yoshio Sakamoto...

“It really depends on the reasons you have for undertaking such a challenge, whether there’s a need for it, and your own motivation, but at the moment I have no plans for another remake. I think we need to spend time considering whether fans are only wanting remakes going forward, and what that might mean.”

Looks like Sakamoto is more interested in moving the franchise further with new titles. That's perfectly fine by me, as I'm always interested in new games, rather than ones that revisit old entries. I have nothing against remakes, but I do prefer completely new experiences.
