Holy shit

I am one of the likes.

Me too  

Feel sorry for the people working on the game. The negative reaction must have made them quite sad and the game really doesn't look bad at all. 

Yeah, specially given the studio that is working on it, I have faith in the game, after Strikers, Luigi's Mansion and Punch-Out!, I want to see what Next Level Games is able to do with the Metroid franchise, I mean they haven't dissapointed me yet.

It was quite a bad showing for a game that has supposedly been in the works since March 2013. Graphically it can't compete with even PSP games (just look at some of the GoW games Ready at Dawn made). I really do wonder what they did for the last 2 and a half years because surely just this game can't be it. Metroid Prime 2 was made in two years... The music of this game will be made by NLG themselves and what we saw at E3 was just not up to Metroid standards.

It's still in development visuals can be improved, and besides sometimes Nintendo is not good with first impressions just look the change between 3D World first trailer and the second trailer, two different beasts.

When I played Fusion with my friend (first and only Metroid game I played), this is the theme that I remember the most.

That one was sweeeeeet.

Is this the thread where we talk about our progress in Metroid games? I'm playing Prime 2 right now and I defeated Quadraxis! Boss was very technical and I had to die several times before I understood what its weak points were. After I understood what to do, Quadraxis felt like one of the easier boss in this game but pretty enjoyable to destroy! 

I also got the light suit and I love its classy white coloring lol. Currently finding all the sky temple keys by following a walkthrough since its just one big fetch quest.

You can talk about anything in this thread, as long as it's Metroid lol. Finding the sky temple keys is pretty easy actually. First you need to scan every keybearer lore, which shouldn't be much of a problem the first time through. You'll notice that one word is colored each time (the color represents the area you need to look at, it's the same colour as the translator doors). What you need to do then is look for the name of the room that uses that particular word (in Light Aether). Once you've done that you need to travel to the equivalent room in the Dark World. I did it in about 50 minutes or so without a guide. The fetch quest in the first Prime game is a lot more annoying imo.

How do you like the game so far? It's my favorite Metroid game. Quadraxis is probably one of the best bosses in the entire trilogy. He's pretty hard on a no-dark suit run with only one energy tank. On a normal run he's piss easy (although it's not a shame to die against him in your first few attempts).
