I do want a DS, I just don't want to pay for it. I also am upset that they removed GBA from the DSi so it would be too hard to pick between them. If I wanted a DSi, I'll just wait for the DS2 or whatever comes next.

Haha, well, that's a toughie then, I doubt Nintendo will give you one for free. As for the GBA slot, DS2 or whatever comes next definitely won't have that, so... if you really want that, might as well get a DS Lite, maybe? Or a GameBoy Player. Dunno if you have a GameCube, but if you do, you can play GB, GB Color, and GB Advance games on your TV with that... including Metroid II, Metroid Fusion and Zero Mission.

Yea...but when DS2 comes out I can probably pick up a DSlite for cheap :)

True that. But then new Metroid games will probably come out for that machine, and you still won't be able to play 'em.

They are all gems.



I have the Nyko sensor bar because my cat chewed threw the wired one that came with the wii. I'm pretty happy he did because the the Nyko one actually works better. Congrats on MP trilogy also.

I know it's not really on topic but better how?  I've been thinking about getting another so when I move my Wii I don't have to move all the cables and stuff as well.

I'm currently playing Echoes (for the first time) and loving it!

Yeah I'm glad I grabbed two copies from Best Buy when they had em for $20. Echoes is the only one I haven't played yet, might put it 3rd on my list right now.

I've had bad results with the original sensor bar. Once you get far enough away, its just impossible to control. I would lean toward the official wireless bar, but apparently it auto-shuts off after about 2 hours or something.



It was not like i didnt like the 2Ds, but those games are quite old and lacks of lots of features new systems can offer :)



I'd recommend starting with the first Metroid Prime. After that, you can decide if you want to play more of the same with Metroid Prime 2, or try out one of the classic 2D games instead. As for 2D Metroids, I'd start with Super Metroid.

Better in the sense that it doesn't jitter at all. It moves along quicker with your actions. It's fantastic.



Meh. I started Metroid, but I got annoyed by wandering around with no direction. So I started playing Metroid Prime 1. Got to first save spot. Great so far! Really pretty and appears ahead of its time. Nintendo always does such a good job with their games.
