No, really. A mindless frag-fest with online has much broader appeal than a game about exploration and boss fights. |
I agree, Metroid was a game you have to 'get into' and certainly wasn't for everyone. My friend LOVES it but it just never appealed to me or my son.
Now a run and gun fragfest shooting alien invaders. That's an easy concept to grasp, easy controls to grasp (point and shoot) and looks like fun. I expect this to do much better than Metroid as long as the gameplay holds up. If the online is comparable to PC's (not likely) this could be a lot bigger than anyone thinks. And the legs on this could be incredible as grewing boys with Wii's look for something deeper than Nerf N-Strike.
