Two simple words: bad ass.

Thank you for your time.

Apparently I am the only one not "sold" on this, which sucks because I bought a Wii a couple of weeks ago in anticipation for this and SMG2.

Where is the exploration & adventure aspects that Metroid is known for? Also, anyone else notice the mini-map? Looks like FFX and FFXIII! And why do I need twitch action, button-mashing, Ninja Gaiden/DMC gameplay in my Metroid? I don't. Wish I could substitute Team Ninja for Retro Studios. If it ain't broke, why fix it...

I don't know that you can really highlight exploration in a trailer showing all-new gameplay, can you?

I mean, aside from putting the words "explore" in the middle of a trailer featuring dozens of places you've never been...

PS: It is okay to be skeptical though... Metroid, hopefully, is too big too fail.

O.o;

adventuring, ummm it looked like she was free roaming around a variety of environments. You know, shooting things and body-slamming dragons. Jumping from perilous ledges and the like.

Exploring.... Have you ever played a Metroid game????? (5 question marks.)

Yeah, because Metroid never had twitch action in it.

That is one of the many dumb Metroid comments in this thread.

i liked the hot, morph ball-on-jungle tunnel action! Seriously though, has me wanting to see more.

I would be anxious about the controls, but I have total faith in Team Ninja and SPD1 to create top-notch gameplay. I'm more worried about the story and voice acting. I am a fan of story in games, and in a Metroid game in particular - which has traditionally thrived on minimalist storytelling - the quality of the story, writing and voice acting could make or break the game.

It won't be a Metroid game unless there's 15-20 hours of solid gameplay that can be bypassed with a single glitch.

Love the part where Samus does a Stone Cold Stunner and follows by shoving a missile up Ridley's throat.

I always felt stopping in your tracks to aim with the wii-mote was clunky. I was excited about this trailer up until I saw that.

I'm still very skeptical (and confused) about the gameplay.

Joystiq writers hate on the Metroid stories a lot.

An actual good game for the Wii, with high production values? What happened to money-hungry Nintendo? Oh, they aren't developing it? That explains it.

Samus isn't supposed to talk.
