She’s here, wrapped in much anticipated Wii Game packaging, Metroid Prime 3 Corruption is available now. This is no ordinary Metroid, with new features ripe for the Nintendo Wii.
- First-Person Perfect – Control Samus by moving with the Nunchuk controller and aiming with the Wii Remote controller, allowing for a level of immersion unlike anything they have ever experienced
- Wonderful Weapons – Samus employs well-known power-ups like the Grapple Beam and Morph Ball to survive. Using the Wii Remote and Nunchuk controllers, you will be able to grasp and pull things by using actual arm movements, as well as execute amazing feats like aiming and blasting in midair or at a full run.
- Phazon’s Powers – The game also incorporates a new system involving Phazon. If you fill Samus’ Phazon supply to a certain level, Samus will temporarily go into hyper mode, a state in which she can pull off incredible feats. On the flip side, if she exceeds the maximum Phazon level, she’ll perish.
- For the first time in the Metroid series, Samus’ ship will be used in active game play.
If you’ve not been looking forward to this title since the Wii launched then you need to hear what some of the fans have to say. Already receiving 4-5 star ratings, the reviews speak for themselves.
THIS IS THE GAME TO HAVE… WOW!!! September 7, 2007
I have been a big fan of the metroid prime series and i was amazed with the first. then the second came out and it blew me away too. I mean i was having super high hopes for this game from the begining but WOW, this game is AMAZING! The makers take full advantage of the wii mote and although there is lock-on -free aiming there is also the traditianal locking on methed like the first two metroid primes. I can play this game for hours on end. I also really like the feel of the controller and it makes it much more realistic to pull a trigger than to hit a round, flat button. One last thing that is great is that you dont have multiple beams to always switch two you just upgrade the regular one.
Even if you havent followed the first two metroid primes this is still one of the best games to play and if you have followed the series this will blow your mind!
This game gets 11 out of 10 in my books.

Maturity level: Well, when I heard a chief of what amounts to the armed forces using a curse word, however mild compared to what I’ve seen in other games, it was still surprising to hear it coming from Metroid. Metroid seems to have been getting darker as time goes on. Not a bad thing really. I’ve been thinking Nintendo should do more stuff like this. Of course games like Mario and Pokemon will always be kid friendly. But if they could make some of their franchises more mature like Metroid, maybe bring back Killer Instinct and maybe grade a few games between kiddie and mature (ie: Zelda), they could really start to beat the image of being too kiddie. So I like what they’re doing making Metroid more adult oriented.
