Topic: Metroid: Samus Returns

Can't wait to pick mine up tomorrow around noon. Glad to hear its kinda hard.

Loooks like my copy is MIA :/

Yup, tracking says North West, 5am, sales order raised.

Here we go again...

Amazon??

@Samus7Killer Nintendo UK.

Royal Mail says its still in the North West of the UK as of 5am.

So checking around, Nintendo UK has buggered up again. No one from the UK Store has the game yet. Its in the ether because they sent it via the wrong delivery path, again.
Just like with Paper Mario. And the Switch. And other things.

Look, Nintendo. Sort your stock out. Sort out actually sending your products to people, and then maybe, just maybe, your company wont be crap.

@MarcelRguez I looked at their poll on Twitter and multiple people below are mentioning they haven't got it and its been sent wrong.

@BLP_Software Yeah, something must have changed between the release dates of Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE and Paper Mario Color Splash that made the Nintendo UK Online Store very unreliable. Going from very good service and usually early to bad service and at best a few days late.

@Grumblevolcano Well, I'm going on spoiler blackout and not using them again. Nintendo in the UK is absolute shambles. If there was a store near me that just stocked Nintendo stuff at all I'd go there but, no, this is the UK.

I just started and played for half an hour. I'm having some problems with the controls but I'm sure I'll get used to it. Playing with the Circle Pad feels weird but I guess 360° aim is not possible with D-pad. I pressed A by an accident and used Scan Pulse. I was going to play without using it at all and now it feels like I cheated because it showed one item for me...

Samus has a scan pulse in her suit. She would use it to help her in her mission, and probably remembers, with considerable annoyance, some other mission where she didn't have it.😀

@bellow Adam probably told her not to use it.

From beyond the grave 🤔

I like it.

Or is he still alive in this timeline?

He doesn't die until Other M. Which is after Super Metroid. Which is after the Prime series. Which is after this.

@Meowpheel I thought the Prime series was between 1 and 2 since 2 goes right to 3, and 3 leads to Other M

@BLP_Software oops

Will be using my zero suit Samus amiibo, then!

Our for Delivery.... yay. I hope I like it lol.

Order status hasnt changed all day. Perpetually stuck in the North West...

@Snaplocket Unlike other Metroid's your mission here will keep you more focused. While you explore to get new abilities and get stronger you are also hunting down the 40 Metroids and that focus never changes. As for the story, if you didn't like the previous games then you won't like this either. The story is light but the adventure is grand.
