This game made 5 that I wanted on the Wii, so I finally purchased one, and I'm enjoying it a lot more than I thought I would. Anyway, here's my Wii code (at least I think it is, it was on the front page of my "address book") for some token trading:

1239 8020 5049 8436

I really hope I'm able to finish this one. I never finished the first MP due to not wanting to have to go through all the levels finding the artifacts just to fight the final boss, then I gave up about 2/3 of the way through MP2 due to a couple lengthy play sessions that led to me looking frantically for a close save room and dying in the process losing hours of "work" .

Alright, I really want the Mii Bobblehead, and bumper stickers, so who wants to trade vouchers? I have five, I think. So if anyone wants to trade, let me know so I can add you.

Adding you, Eric D. You should have a voucher soon.

EDIT- Update. I reformatted my Wii recently(long story), and apparently it gives you a new number when you do. My new number is now updated in my sig.

Thx to the folks who have added me. I've resolved to finish MP2 before I start MP3, since I'm pretty sure I won't be able to go back to those controls.

I'm remembering why I put MP2 down twice...what an aggrevating f'ing game! I hate the dark world, and the bosses are beyond ridiculous.

I picked the game up on Tuesday. I haven't played much yet but I have been really enjoying it so far. I have already sent out friend vouchers to a few people in this thread and I would appreciate if my code could be added to the list that is being compiled.

Edited to add:

I went through the list and added Chess, PixyJunket, Giantrobo, kakihara1, steebo777. Everyone else with a number was already on my friend list

Cool. I just added your new number, so you should show up on my list soon. When you do, I'll send you a voucher.

Edit: Okay, just sent you one. Let me know if it went through.

I recieved it, and sent it one back.

This should be the Wii's 'achievements'. I wonder if Mario and Smash Bros. will have something similar.

I just finished the opening sequence of the game and I have to say I am very impressed. I always enjoyed the old Metroid games and the modern day series was always fun to play. This one really starts off with a bang and seemed to get the game started in a hurry. With so many games on the horizon I'm not sure if I will finish this game but I can tell that even if I don't it will be a great game no matter how far I get in it.

I sent some vouchers to the ones already "black"(pre-MP3) on my list but it's too hot to sit and add those long ass codes. I'll add some more later.

Yay, I just beat it with 100% item pickup! I only missed five scans out of everything as well. It's definitely the easiest (and longest) Prime game by a good margin. But, there's now three difficultly levels so I'm guessing Normal Mode was meant more as an Easy Mode. I feel like starting a new game already on the next level! (Blue Dragon says "PLEASE NO! PLAY ME!").

The final sequences are just simply amazing, while I don't know if it's the best Prime game overall, it's easily got the best final area and boss battles of the Prime series. The final boss really reminded me of something:

Spoiler:
Mother Brain?
Here's some other neat little things that show an amazing attention to detail. I just found this out today: the Wii Remote's battery level is integrated into Samus's visor! Also, you can see a slight reflection of her face when in Scan Visor mode.. notice how it changes as you progress through the game.

Finally:

Spoiler:
OMEGA RIDLEY ROCKS!
I've added everyone up to now so I'll keep an eye on Friend Vouchers still.

Has anyone experienced any game crashes on Briyyo? My Wii locks up and then resets on this level for some reason. The nunchuk stops working then boom it resets.

I purchased the bumper stickers for my ship and it seems to give stickers for Nintendo Wii (not VC) games that are in your system memory. Now Samus' ship has EXcitetruck, Legend of Zelda, Super Paper Mario, Wario Ware, Wii Play and Wii Sports stickers all over it. The Iwata/Miyamoto easter egg is also pretty funny. Games awesome.

I just added
kakihara1
cartman
steebo777
SuperBatMan
Suprmallet
slop101

I didn't realize at first that you needed to adjust the WiiConnect settings so that it showed your friends you had a game save. I guess so people like privacy but I thought it was a bit weird. I adjusted my settings and should show up black for all friends.

I added a few just now and will add more later:

chess
Suprmallet
Michael Corvin
slop101


Other than these new names I just added, I still have 2 names that are grey. Why is that?

Are they grey on the Wii friends list or the in game list? Like I stated you have to turn on the ability for your friends to see you have a MP3 game save. I don't think everyone has adjusted this setting on the in game menu.

No it's not that because I turned on the MP3 Friend thing in the game after I read your post. I just think the 2 names never responded to my adding them several weeks back. They've been grey since I added them. Only 3 of the names I added turned black since then.

phew...I thought I was the only one experiencing this problem. It seems when I first start playing, the game will spontaneously reset the console out of the blue after an hour or so of gameplay. After it reboots and I go back into the game though, it seems to not do that anymore for remainder of the gaming session. It's a real pain the ass esp considering you lose the time spent in-between the last save and when the console resets

I'm returning it to Best Buy and hoping it's just a problem with the disc. I'll report back and let you know if I still experience the issue.
