I wouldn't take a sale price to mean that the game is bad. It had its flaws, but I wouldn't quite call it a "bad game," and if you've enjoyed Metroid in the past or find other cutscene heavy games enjoyable (I'm a Final Fantasy/Metal Gear nut myself), you'll probably be able to take SOMETHING positive away from Other M.

It's more likely that the reviews hurt the sales and many people just rented it or ignored it. It's well worth $20.

The fact that there's hardly EVER sales on Nintendo games speaks volumes to the quality of this title. I mean how long did it take for Smash Brothers Melee to hit $30? 5 years? Even long after the Wii was out Smash never got lower than $30.

So is this not worth it? or worth it? I heard a relative non-gamer the other going on about how it was all cut scenes. If that's how a non-gamer perceived it...it must be a glaring issue.

$20 is pretty good for Other M. Probably the worst Metroid game but still better than most franchises' double-digit offerings.

Grabbed one for myself despite the naysayers.

And it's still not worth 20 bucks. Support Retro Studios, and buy either Metroid Prime Trilogy or Donkey Kong Country Returns.
