the Wii version has pitch perfect controls
I had to change it to the second lock-on option. I don't know how you'd get past the Hive Mecha with the default. But once I did that it had some of the best controls of any game I've ever played.

One let's you free aim while still locked on and the other is the original where you stay locked on and just shoot directly at the target

It has voice acting and halo cutscenes. It's really weird but it has some good bosses and morph ball puzzles. You can also stick your grapple beam onto enemies and leech health from them until this explode which is cool

I really liked the golf minigames in Super Monkey Ball 1 and 2, is there a game like them (wacky golf I guess?) for the Wii U?

i noticed that but i do appreciate someone has gone and written individual descriptions for the thousands of wall ornaments in the game for me to scan and not even bother reading

You also only need to scan like elevators and switches for the most part, but for a first playthrough I liked digging through all that crap and then never really needing to look at it again in later playthroughs

Have Sakurai direct it and make it ridiculously full of content like Air Ride or Kid Icarus....

Air Ride was really good. The city battle game especially. Finding your ride, the Dynabeak invasion, all of it. The best though was when you'd made a fast car and the challenge ended up being jump distance.

Rhythm Heaven is really good, but flow balls are so slow to get for how much the games cost. Also when you're going for a Perfect Challenge do you have to actually go click on the P or can you just try to perfect it in a normal run

i forgot the name of the boss in prime but its the one where you have to shoot the mirrors so you can bomb its roots. well it bugged out halfway through the fight and they wouldnt get stunned when i flipped the mirrors so i had to reload a save lol

When I'm doing really well and I misclick once and mess up a run and it instantly fails me it feels bad. Song should keep going with a big FAIL on it or something

its ok from what i remember but doesnt really feel like metroid at all and you end up getting hand cramps after playing for awhile

and you are going to need to play this on a ds, you should anyways but emulating it is insanely challenging to get the touch screen stuff.
