You might surprise yourself.
before anyone bashes M2 again remember that it is the only literally the only metroid with no story in game.

I spent an hour select-glitching from a new game got spiderball then bombs then got the baby. turns out the game wont end unless that metroid count is zero but then the main tunnel had collapsed since the game thought I killed the queen going into the area where it was with the baby.

I own Metroid Prime Trilogy Collectors Edition and can't play it because I have poor eyesight and have to sit closer to my TV and that doesn't make for very good gaming on the Wii.

I'll probably go to my grave having not been given the opportunity to experience this gaming classic. This probably should go in the gaming confession thread but I wanted you guys to know that I love Metroid more than any other games on this planet.

sure. i will beat the trilogy disc and echos is 2 right? so i got that

i'm looking forward to playing one in which the motion plus is supported so my cat doesn't gently caress everything up by sauntering by

Unless something changed in trilogy I don't think any of the games support motion plus.

I'm sorry...

sheegoth is way better if you know the missile quickfire trick.

it's really easy. launch missile, press beam button to reset it, launch missile again. actually this makes like the entire first half of the game a breeze

It supports motion controls, but motion plus is an extra thingy they added later, way after Corruption came out

It didn't exist when corruption came out and I don't think they did that much work on the first two to add the new control scheme. I mean it's basically the closest a console has gotten to m+kb controls, what would motion plus really add

i thought the motion plus removed the requirement for line of sight with the beam bar but honestly idk

i just get made at the arm aiming sometimes and 'no motion plus' was the scapegoat i chose lol

Regardless of the looks (which allowed for the main new gameplay feature anyway) LBW runs at 60fps and that kicks rear end.

this is nice

i would've just preferred cool looking hd sprites instead of what we got. i hope the next 2D metroid is 2D and not 2.5D bullshit, but that will probably be the case especially if it's on the 3DS.
