Prime 3 is my favorite Metroid game. It came out in that golden period where the Wii and its motion controls were fresh and exciting, and set a standard for FPS controls that I don't think have ever been topped. The grapple beam was also amazing. It was the first game that really showed that Wii games could look great if developers put in the work. I likely would not have become a Metroid fan without it after struggling with the original Prime as a kid.

Totally agree, Prime 3 is fantastic.

To this day, no first person game feels as good to control, and despite being up against consoles a generation more powerful, it showed Wii games could still look good.

I feel like it got overshadowed somewhat by releasing in a year so stacked with standout games; 2007 also saw Mario Galaxy, Bioshock, Mass Effect, COD4, Portal, Uncharted, Assassin's Creed, Halo 3...
