If by live you mean in-engine? It appears to be, not sure why else it would be in the trailer.
If by live you mean live action the answer is no.
LMAO I say "live" because pre-rendered things can be in-engine too
I imagine we won't really have an idea until October
It would be weird for that scene to be pre-rendered when the scene with Samus getting choked by Bad Bird is clearly real time. Considering Samus presumably loses consciousness and that scene does not transition back to gameplay I mean.
but Metroid and live-action go hand-in-hand
there's also a Zero Mission live action ad but it's embarrassing lmao
Some people are idiots.
Or, you know, some people here just really hate Nintendo. Or both.
Guessing from the aliasing that it's rendered real time. If it were pre-rendered they'd have smoothed that out.
It is a pretty dark scene, so maybe that just hides some visual blemishes that could enable it to look like this.
I mean there's a reason Doom 3 still looks as good as it does.
McDonald's Canada out here tweeting a teaser about something returning next Tuesday, and McPizza starts trending within the hour.
I think a 1-2 punch of crappy nostalgic pizza from my childhood and a Direct announcement could really kickstart the ol' serotonin factory.

He means, is Samus doing that right now somewhere in space and that is live footage?
Metroid is real, this is what the media tries to hide from you.
It's the Direct
McDonald's Canada is teasing the return of the September Direct
The EMMI following Samus are actually streaming her every move to a Twitch channel
I'm still saying it: once Metroid Dread is done, Hosokawa should make his grand return to Wario Land with the help of the Metroid team at MercurySteam using their same engine utilized for those games.
Man, I even liked Metroid at the time, but when I finally got to play Super Metroid, I was definitely NOT prepared for the awesomeness.

But what about the daily "Pokemon is awful because it is not being catered to my specific wants" threads :(
If/when that happens I really hope they do something to change up the formula.

For sure. An artstyle with even a modicum of personality would be a nice start
They can go to the place where the daily "BOTW is overrated" threads went.
to the magical place which some tales refer as the ignore list

Unfortunately those have migrated to the Elden Ring previews thread, since some FromSoftware diehards seem offended at the comparison to BOTW lol
Oh no getting compared to BoTW
Zhe horror
I like Bloodborne don't @ me
Shigehisa Nakaue-san is already hired and right there. 2D Mario, in his artstyle (which includes 2D Fury Bowser in the SM3DW+BF folder), animated 60fps platforming, Nintendo, money, table, etc
I see. lucky I don't want to get spoilered about Elden Ring.
For Mario Maker 2 the word "online" should come with huge quotation marks.
The next 2D Mario will be in the works at EPD 10 and I'd be surprised if it's a continuation of either the "New" or "Maker" series on Switch. A revamp or next step for that aspect of Mario seems due. EPD 10 one of the three internal groups who are soon going to be about due to launch a game where we have little concrete info:
EPD 8: 3D Mario and/or DK
EPD 9: ????????
EPD 10: 2D Mario, Pikmin 4
EPD 8: 3D Mario and/or DK
EPD 9: ????????
EPD 10: 2D Mario, Pikmin 4
When's that Mario movie coming out? I wouldn't be surprised if Nintendo was working on something either 2D or 3D in the background to coincide with the movie. Not saying they are directly connected or even that they releasing at the exact same time but they'll have marketing synergy with each other.
2022. And yes, I'd thought there'd be a major Mario title to go along with it. Sensible bet would be on 3D Mario being ready first, given Odyssey was 2017 and the only thing EPD 8 have shipped since is Bowser's Fury, but we don't know what the situation is with EPD 8 and whether or not they're definitely also working on DK.
EPD 10 had Maker 2 out in 2019, so with Covid disruption, 2022 might be too soon for a new 2D Mario title.
2D Nintendo never died, though. 2D Zelda is alive and well, the New SMB and Mario Maker series have all been hits and there were several of them, Yoshi has had lots of games lately, Kirby is always getting new games too, and DKC has a game on the Switch and there's another one coming, most likely.
We're just missing a new Wario Land and we're golden.
Helllllll yes. Oh man what a tune. Just what I needed to wrap out a Friday.
I bought Skyward Sword HD, and opened the box, next step is to put the cart in my Nintendo Switch when I finish Psychonauts 2.
Also, it's been a long time since I posted a link to the NintendoEra discord, so here is one (Quote to See)

I already felt like Dread was probably going to be my new favorite Metroid (Samus Returns already got close, the improvements Dread makes to the combat and the return of Super-style level design makes that a fairly sure bet for me), but now I'm starting to think it might have a shot at dethroning Hollow Knight as my favorite Metroidvania
2D Zelda has lived on a remake and reimagining for the last decade, the last New NSMB game was 2012. I don't really count mario maker as the same thing.
Yeah, we haven't had a new single player 2D Zelda since 2013, a new 2D DK since 2013, or a new 'traditional' or 'mainline' 2D Mario since 2012.
Reason to believe that'll change for Mario and DK in the next year or two, but I'm not sure about Zelda.
