Unfortunately, there is still controversy going on nowadays as to which game is the best Metroid game; Super Metroid or Metroid Prime. As I have indeed beaten Super Metroid (and absolutely love it!!!) I have yet to play Prime to answer this question personally myself. GOOD LUCK, SELF!
Yeah, I hate the camera feature, too. It's either unessecary, or unessecarily loud. Every time I go to a checkpoint, and the photographer takes my picture, in say, a situation where I'm surrounded by a bunch of people I don't know or if I'm in a place that's dead quiet, I would have to supress the camera sound from the speakers with my fingers every time, or just close the DSi and putting it under something, like a pillow. JUST SHUT UP, WILL YOU?!?
I'd give it an 8/10, hands down. While the original version (for me, the PS1) was significantly more difficult than this one, the DSiWare version still pertains to it's astounding gameplay feats and awes. I have to be honest, but I am a sucker for the music in this game, especially Mr. Dark's theme song (which I managed to put onto my DSi's SD card), it's just so ingenious. What I dislike for the DSiWare version is that some of that great music has either been removed, or a particular track is used more than once for levels that don't even fit the particular track (for example, the rising water level in Dream Forest's original track is an ominous and ambient score, whereas this version has the happy and cheerful music of that of the very first level's music. Yeah, I know.)
I'm worried about getting a Game Over when I play Corruption (if I get this game) 'cause my mom greatly dislikes video games that have blood involved... and the worst part is I know getting a Game Over will be quite frequent, <sigh> so yeah.
I just got this game yesterday, and today I have spent hours playing this game. THE GRAPHICS ARE INSANE!!!!!!!! I expected them to somewhat irregular and choppy like Indiana Jones and The Staff of Kings, but these are the pinacle of perfect graphics (one of the best in general in video gaming, but the best for the Wii, PERIOD!!!!!!!!) It truely is. And the gameplay is exhilerating and hard to turn away from, let alone stop liking completely. And the cutscenes are too beautiful to be true, like... like it's not even of this earth. Happy sigh 10/10.
Wall-Jumping is frustratingly difficult. It took me half an hour to get up a wall to a secret entrance that leads to the second reserve tank in Norfair. DX
I'm quite worried about this game. I just recently downloaded it because I had enough points to spend, and the thing is that I already downloaded F-Zero X, and since I'm so accustomed to it's style of gameplay (and graphics, if you will) I'm worried I won't like F-Zero and that I'll find it a total waste of points, which I don't want to happen. /:S
According to chronologic timeline, this game is the second most recent game in the Metroid series, with Metroid Fusion being the first. I hope Nintendo will continue the Metroid story after Fusion after Other M is released.
I'm really hoping that when you are able to go into first-person mode, you can actually move and walk around, like the Prime series. If not, this will be a great disappointment to me.
Well, I actually got it! This game is awesome! In fact, the FPS is so intense, that it broke the inside of my left trigger because I had to press it constantly! It sounds like a bad thing, but that just says this game is for those that like intense FPS's.

This is undoubtedly the best of the 2-D FF games.

Re: Review: Final Fantasy IV (DS)
Who exactly is on the cover of the game, I wonder?
Re: Review: Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars (Virtual Console / Super Nintendo)
It's a great game, and 11-star worthy. It take back what I said before, this game ROCKS!!
The person in my profile pic is a secret optional boss named Culex, and is even harder than Smithy, the final boss! IRONY!!
Re: Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars
This is the greatest RPG I have ever played. Simple as that. Get it, people!

Re: Star Wars: Flight of the Falcon
This game defaces the great series that is Star Wars.
Re: Mother 3

Re: Metroid II: Return of Samus
If it weren;t for this game, we Metroid gamers wouldn't have saving capabilities in Metroid games for, say, the GBA.
Re: Review: Mario & Luigi: Partners In Time (DS)
I hope it's good. But Bowser's Inside Story takes the cake.

Re: Review: F-Zero (SNES)
So far, I rate this game a 7/10 just by looking at it, and F-Zero X a 9.5/10. Hopefully this game will surpass that.
Re: F-Zero
I'm quite worried about this game. I just recently downloaded it because I had enough points to spend, and the thing is that I already downloaded F-Zero X, and since I'm so accustomed to it's style of gameplay (and graphics, if you will) I'm worried I won't like F-Zero and that I'll find it a total waste of points, which I don't want to happen. /:S

F-Zero needs to be revived soon!

Re: Ogre Battle 64: Person of Lordly Caliber
Exacty. I heard this was one of the best games for the '64, anyway, and that it nearly surpassed Orcarina of Time.
Re: Metroid Prime Trilogy
Awesomeness.
Re: Medal of Honor: Vanguard
The graphics are PS2-ish.

Re: New Metroid: Other M Footage Looks Intense
(Hopefully when in 1st person mode, you can move around like in the Prime series.)
Re: New Metroid: Other M Footage Looks Intense
I don't know what you guys are talking about; this game looks intense.
Re: Dark Void Zero
The "cover" (shown above) of this game shows nothing from the actual game whatsoever. Even Rusty's gun is incorrect.
Re: Review: Nintendo DSi Browser (DSiWare)
The fact that it doesn't have Flash (which the Wii has) disappoints me, but it's still a good deal, anyway.
Re: Review: F-Zero X (Virtual Console / Nintendo 64)
F-Zero GX has really corny cutscenes in story mode, but the graphics are stunning and the racing design is pretty awesome... just like F-Zero X.
Re: F-Zero X
This is an excellent game. The first level was exhilerating and fast-paced, and I'm not a fan of racing games.

Re: Still Hope Rayman Origins May Find its Way to Nintendo Consoles
But the whole idea sounds cool, too.
Re: Still Hope Rayman Origins May Find its Way to Nintendo Consoles
Hopefully this'll be a nice back story of Rayman himself, and actually reintroduce Mr. Dark after his cowardly disappearance in Rayman 1.
Re: Metroid: Other M
According to chronologic timeline, this game is the second most recent game in the Metroid series, with Metroid Fusion being the first. I hope Nintendo will continue the Metroid story after Fusion after Other M is released.

I'm really hoping that when you are able to go into first-person mode, you can actually move and walk around, like the Prime series. If not, this will be a great disappointment to me.
Re: Nintendo Will Release 3DS in October
It's impossible not to have a 3D defined screen in front of your eyes at all times that gives you the 3D illusion. But if so, it's still pointless.
Re: Review: Princess Tomato in the Salad Kingdom (Virtual Console / NES)
It isn't worth even spitting on, let alone burning.

Re: Metroid Prime: Hunters
I hope I could get this; when it came out, people scrambled for a copy,so it might be sold out, which had better not happen...
Re: Review: The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks (DS)
There's a possible chance that I will get this, it looks good.
