Relax, it's not long (at least not yet). The game has been pushed back a week from a release date of August 20th, to August 27th.

This game is coming out in August? Wow. One of the only Wii games that I'm excited for.

Aww, you gotta be kidding me. Oh well, so i'm buying the game a week later than planned. Shouldn't be a biggie. Now if they did that with Super Smash, that's a whole 'nother story. The good games for the Wii are starting to come out... muahahahhahahahaha!

When does Smash come out?
And yeah, I've had my wii for a few months now but I'm just not impressed. Mind you, I haven't rented/played a new game for it in a while, except for Mario Party. I still have yet to play the Godfather and Super Paper Mario.

I'm super hyped for No More Heroes, Metroid and Smash Bros.

Smash "is scheduled" to come out around September, maybe a week or 2 off the Halo 3 release. The release date changed last month (for Halo, they moved it up), i believe, so I'm not so certain about SSB. It's the Wii's hand in the underground poker game that all the gaming companies participate in. (<-- metaphor saying, "Super Smash will contest Halo and whatever PS3 decides to throw in").

Well, i just checked gamestop.com, and they have a pre-release date of 9/1/07. So, if that means anything to anyone... back to Metroid lol

9/1/07 is just a filler date. A release date for Smash Brothers has yet to be revealed. At this point, I'm guessing anywhere from late October to early December.

Whoa, totally off then. Thanks for the clarification!

Time for some thread necromancy. Using my magical powers, i return this to life!

Well, not really, I just too off "delayed a week" from the title. No new thread. I'm announcing the fact that i got this game. I'm also announcing that this game is awesome. You control your shooting, period. You can lock on to an enemy, but you still have to aim...

It's a crazy-good game. 9/10 so far from me. Only problem is the loading times. Its like the only nintendo game with real loading.

Uh, what else? The weaponry system and visor system is awesome. And my favorite part is activating manual switches. Pull the Wiimote (lol, i said wemote instead of remote...), anyway, pull the controller away from screen, turn it, push it back in. It's totally awesome. Sounds, Graphics, Gameplay, all are stellar. It's just the monotonous switching-world cutscene that disguises the loading that makes it lose the perfection.

It's a Metroid game. That's high enough praise.

I don't think I'm as big a fan as I used to be (loved Super Metroid), but the game is still really fun so far. It's entertaining but I don't think the game makes you sit at the end of your seat in anticipation, but they never really have anyway. I think I'm stupid so games that make me think don't excite me as much as they used to. I've had to look at a walkthrough a couple times so far which takes me out of the experience.

But I'm not dissin' Metroid, like I said, it's high praise just to say its name.

Really early spoiler coming right up!







P.S. When meta-Ridley comes crashing down and you fight him in the air, THAT was fucking epic. Easily the best part so far. One of the only times in a Metroid game where I was trash talkin' the game.
