Having the amiibo in the pose of the original return of Samus game cover made me want it instantly. Despite it's simplicity that cover is one of my favourites, to the point that I'll choose this one over the original Samus amiibo even if I like Other M suit more. I'm also getting that Squishy Metroid because, well... it's squishy.

I will own the amiibo. I will own the SE even if I have to pay 3-4 times the store price. I will be playing this on release. The reveal trailer for this game made me emotional, as I've wanted a return of 2D Metroid, an official remake of Metroid II from Nintendo and a return of melee mechanics that they first toyed with in Other M. I've beaten the original twice via the 3DS VC and have played a few hours of AM2R. I'm more than ready for September.

You don't.

But extent of commotion and chatter is a pretty reliable indicator for interest and excitement..

I have such mixed feelings when watching Sakamoto talk in that interview, and it's exciting. Seeing how Other M turned out, he also made Fusion, and Zero Mission with great passion and was well received. He looks really confident with what he's produced here.

Makes Sakamoto feel mysterious. I just wanna dissect him, about Metroid.

Wow.

This makes even AM2R look like a preschool effort and you can tell Doc put a lot of effort into his version.

The maps from Samus Returns are not complete, they're put together from the little bits that they showed in the stream.

@Tsurii I don't think he's meaning that the new stuff and areas are a bad thing, quite the contrary.

@Tsurii Lol no problem, it's understandable.

Honestly I'm just so happy we are getting this, I still can't believe it. What do you guys think the amiibo will do? Maybe some kind of extra like a Boss Rush mode, a new area or a creature gallery? A mini game of a dating simulator in which you, as Samus, have to choose between an Omega Metroid, space pirate #253, Mother Brain, Kraid and Ridley?

I never had any qualms with the developer. It's a remake so by its very nature they probably couldnt mess it up -too- bad. But that new info just makes me even more confident that the game will be great.

yeah, I'm not automatically dismissing the title, despite my jokes/very valid criticisms. I mean, it isn't like notable changes in quality from the same dev is unusual (as I'm sure Nintendo fans know about, RarewareSiliconKnightsStickerStar)

Gosh this game looks great. The perfect 2D Metroid. I never thought we'd actually have a legitimate Metroid game on 3DS. Thought for sure those days had passed. Yet here we are.

I'm gonna play the heck out of this game.

Metroid II was one of the first games I ever had so I'm looking forward to this. Definitely a pleasant surprise.

On a side note, any Amazon Prime members know why this game doesn't have the pre-order discount?

I love what I've seen so far of this game. I never had a gameboy but I did play Metroid II on the 3DS VC a few years ago. I found a map online and using that to play through it, I really enjoyed it. This was the most exciting announcement at E3 for me.

Aside from the gameplay additions which look really cool, I'm excited to see how they've revamped the map in this. I also think the 3D in the trailer looks great.

Has anyone been able to pre-order the special edition? More specifically, anyone in Canada? I can't find it available anywhere.

@nf_2 Dunno. EO5 doesn't have the discount either. VERY annoying.

I mean, the games will get discounted eventually, but I don't understand what the hang-up is.

Ugh. Men.

I really hate to link GameStop, but this is Metroid we're talking about. And the Special Edition is live.

I need that EU version for the steel case and art book. NEED it.

Maybe I should just hack my 3DS to be region free and nab that amazing EU edition
