Not That Great. Kinda Annoying.

(Review From Amazon)
General Comments:
I was really looking forward to to Metroid on the Wii. After figuring out the controls and playing for a couple hours I stopped playing. It's annoying and by annoying I mean Really Frickin' Annoying. The graphics are not that great. Think Gamecube. The controls are not that great. The character animations are really horrible. I felt like I was playing the same ol' Metroid and sold the game. It's just not that great. Play the first Metroid game and you should be good to go. Save your bucks and buy something better this holiday season. There are many other new games with really state of the art graphics, art design, character animations, gameplay and fun out this year. I'd suggest other games but look at any game ratings or reviews websites and you'll find something with a great score. This was just so-so.

Excellent Buy for Metroid & FPS Lovers

When I first heard about this game during development, I was hesitant. I wondered if using the new controllers would get in the way. In the end, it took some playing, but I think I've got it down.

Nintendo has taken interactivity to a whole new level. You no longer have to just shoot doors to get to the next room. There's new locks to unravel and can use hand motions to unlock the locks (as seen even in the beginning "intro" part of the game).

They've also taken the grappling hook to a whole new level. I won't say what because I don't want to spoil it for anyone who's not played the game, but it plays into the above.

The bosses, while not necessarily really difficult, did make you think about what you were doing. If they aren't challening enough, the game comes with more than 1 difficulty level.

One of my favorite parts is the hyper mode. It certainly does allow you to do a lot of damage over a short amount of time, but be careful!!! It's also very easy to use up all of your energy tanks as a result. Whether you beat a boss or not can all depend on how wisely and when you use the hyper mode.

Like the previous 2 games, you sometimes have to travel between areas to get a power-up. In this case, that's still true, but also has you traveling between planets!
