Wii: Metroid Prime - Corruption

[Natas]

The latest installment of Metroid looks fcukin awesome... also anybody else with an NTSC Wii download the Promo from the store?

I downloaded it and took a look at one of the vids.. looks like I will pre-ordering my copy today!

Apparently, according to one report (cant remember where I found the article/link to the article - I think it may have been Ninty?) the control system is flawless and makes it apparent that the Wii's interface WILL be the standard for FPS's going forward..... I hope the interface is nice, but last night I was thinking about how I prefer playing FPS's on consoles to PC's and specifically using an anolg stick or two, like with N64/NGC/etc

But is it the "BioShock" effect?

eg, look at some of the Heavenly sword reviews as well. Bioshock comes in clouting 100's left right and centre, so now every platform thinks it's "next big thing" needs to score higher than bioShock to be noticed?

I ordered my copy the other day. I selected the fastest shipping method known to man.. the shipping cost almost as much as the disc did...cant wait to get my hands on the disc.... quite interested to see how well retro have done the control system. I have a copy of red steel and can confirm the ****eness of the control system. It does however show you the potential..... apparently retro have perfected the control system.. drool da rool

Natas, do you really live in Poffaddersberg? I am without doubt a huge Metroid fan - having played Super Metroid (finished), Metroid Prime (finished), Metroid Prime 2 (not finished) and the one for the DS - did not like this one sadly. If you're actually living in Cape Town, please please invite me to see the new Metroid. I'll buy you a candy and 6 pack.

for a few more six packs, I would be willing to fly you up to jo'burg and let you stay with me... like collar says, I live in Jozie mate.... soz!! I know a few peeps in CPT with Wii's, but theirs are all PAL systems, so they will be waiting for the European release, which is I dont know when
