Looking good. It's always nice to see Nintendo knowing what they're doing.

    You know that isn't Metroid Prime 2.. right?

    That's Metroid Prime Hunters or something like that. Its a different game for the DS.

    And also, due to fans getting angry they have conceeded the entirely stylus based control scheme and you can now use the buttons the way god intended.

    Looks damned good though doesn't it?

    Played it at E3. It was ok. I hope it's just a multiplayer add on to a remake of Super Metroid or something sweet like that.

    Nope, new game.


    Why would they use the DS on a Super Metroid remake? That's what the GBA is for. The DS is supposed to be all new crap.

    I'm confused by the control system. Do you hold the system and D-pad with the left hand and awkwardly stab at the screen with the stylus in right hand? Hold the system a la GBA and use the stylus with your teeth? What?

    It looks nice, but it seems hard to control =/

    Done gone and lost all faith in Nintendo. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    The game itself looks amazing graphics-wize, almost as good as Prime from what you can see in that video. But holy crap, how are you supposed to play like that? That's probably the most awkward looking control scheme I've <i>ever</i> seen.

    Guess the DS sounds a lot better on paper...

    Truly a silly idea; to control the game you have to cover up half the screen with your hand, negating the appeal of those wonderful visuals.

    *sigh*

    Read my post people. They already responded to our cries of WTHBBQ and there will be in place a non-stylus method of control.
