It's about time, been waiting for this game ever since Other M trashed my opinion of the franchise. The Prime trilogy paid respect to Metroid and Samus as a character. Retro studios made such a more realistic and intelligent Metroid universe with the Prime saga that it was frustrating to see Other M poopitypoop on all that progress with its lackluster graphics, exploration, story and characters. The lore entries alone in Prime 1 and 3 were enough to create an excellent story, and the atmosphere and art of Prime 2 I have yet to see matched from another video game. After an 8 year hiatus following Super, Retro brought our girl Samus back in style, creating some of the most critically and for the first time world-wide commercially successful games in the franchise. It's now been 4 1/2 years since Other M cocked everything up, and it seems like Metroid is in another hiatus period... I can only hope Retro comes to the rescue once again creating a new Metroid game for the Wii U that can truly portray the studios legendary art direction.
