Me and some of the guys from the uni watched it together. Everyone said the Nintendo Press Conference sucked right up to the showing of Mario Galaxy 2, whereafter they just thought it was dissapointing. When they saw the Team Ninja logo go on, they all gasped for breath, and when they saw Samus they screamed like little girls!

 

This game seems awesome. I just hope it's not entirely a 2D game. A more combat and story oriented third person Metroid would kick buttocks!

The lady with the long blonde hair at the end of the trailer is the one in the Zero suit at the beginning, whilst Samus Aran is the one with the short blonde hair.
Interesting!... so was she the original Samus or something?

 

What's Samus doing on all these high tech stations anyways, I thought she was raised by the Chozo?

Judging from the clip though, this game would appear to be only Metroid in name and story - I'm having difficulty believing the gameplay will remain having seen that.

Well they were focusing on the action packed sections I guess! It looks like the game itself will be a combination of third person and perhaps some 2d exploration with also first person bits for some things.

 

I'm still expecting there to be a lot of exploration like the other titles, otherwise I would be disappointed.

I hope so.

 

Don't get me wrong, it looked amazing and I'll get it even if it gets panned, but it didn't scream the classic Metroid gameplay.

:o Holy... :o Just... :o And...but... :o :o

 

Initial shock aside, I think I can warm up to a spin-off. I mean, it may be more story-based, but the gameplay is not like a traditional Metroid's, either.

 

I'm sure the gameplay will be great. Ninja team are behind this, after all. That, and they're bringing several Metroid staples into this (not just aesthetically), so I have high hopes for an awesome Nintendo action game. That it's based on Metroid is an incredible, incredible bonus.

 

As for the story, surely it follows the time she worked for Adam. And I have a feeling there will be plenty of flashbacks.

Having only played Prime 1 & 2 [but thougt I was up on the whole story], who is Adam? ...from Super Metroid?

 

Big interesting point is that Retro are basically a no-show...
Yeah big suprise! Glad they've been allowed to move on from Metroid though. Wonder if they'll release something in the next few days.

In Metroid Fusion, Samus mentions her former CO, Adam, whose catchphrase was "Any objections, lady?" (so I jumped at hearing him say that, not seeing her suit :heh:)

 

By the way, go play Super Metroid, Metroid Fusion and Zero Mission. Definitely worth it.
