IGN has a movie up to check out. Nothing special from the 3 seconds they show.. but.. we all know it'll rock!

Not bad! It was way too short, but it looked as good as ever! I wonder when the expected release date is.

probably sometime in mid 2004 =(

A little O.T., but did anyone else read this and go "Huh?" :

"Iwata admitted that some of Nintendo's earlier efforts have not been sufficient--such as how, in the first half of last year, the company did not release enough exclusive titles--and that games such as Super Mario Sunshine and Metroid Prime did not live up to expectations." - http://www.gamespot.com/gamecube/rpg...s_6027510.html

If Metroid Prime did not live up to expectations, then I can't wait to see a game that does, because that was my favorite game last year.

He's probably talking about sales. I believe MP sold under a million which was below their expectations.


To be fair, that would be less than 2 years after the release of Metroid Prime (late 2002) which is super fast for a game of the scope of Metroid.

Not to mention that it beats the hell out of the 8 year gap between Super Metroid and MP and Fusion.

Bumpity Bump Bump.

I seem to have lost the movie file of Prime 2 shown at E3.. does anybody know where I can get it that doesn't require me to sign up for a ton of spam email?

The link you posted at the top of the forum still works for me. Or are you talking about the direct feed one?

I just watched it again, its awesome. Short, but short awesomeness. The guys at Retro really know how to go into hibernation when they're making games, we haven't heard one peep about the game. I know the Tokyo Game Show is coming up, I'm wondering if they're planning something.

Okay I feel dumb.. I skipped that link cause I did go to IGN first and they had it "Insiders Only" ..

Man.. I'm not sure if they can top the first one.

I dunno. I hear there is a rave scene in the middle of it.

Pffpt.. I wouldn't be surprised to see that in the next Metroid Fusio, the dialouge in that game was just as bad as Matrix Reloaded.
