If there's more epic scenes and storytelling like this the gaming media will have no choice but to like it. Making Samus look like a piece of meat helps too.

There's going to be no problem getting the media to like this game.  If there's one thing gaming 'media' likes even more than Mario or Zelda, its Metroid.  The problem is, getting avg people, especially in Japan and Europe, to like the game.  Metroid games primarily sell 75-80% of its sales in America.  And still only them around 1.25-1.5 million.

Hopefully with this title, they can break out to a much wider audience, while still hitting the 'core' gamer.  Despite the fact that all other Wii games that have done over 2 million have been games like Mario Kart, Mario Galaxy and Smash Bros Brawl (games for 'everyone').

I'm putting all my faith on it thoughl.  It really looks like they're trying to reawaken the series, much like they're doing with Mario and Zelda on Wii.
