Ok!

As for the scratching. You can just buy a screen cover to solve your problems. They are selling them for a few dollars.

Also, Nintendo today announced their own Movie Player for DS and GBA. It will be able to play MP3s and MP4. It will be released in Japan in February and will cost about $30,-.

Man, when MP:H comes out, if it can play online, we should set up an Acmlm clan. That would be the uberness of cool.

$30? I thought it would be way more...

My guess is that Nintendo holds off on an American release until they see how the PSP does, but it's about time they started using those SD cards for SOMETHING.

This guy beats a game, puts it away and brags about it later.

My pokemon game had all level 100s made for battling. All 151 pokemon, all the evolved forms and single evolution pokemon (except really bad ones) were put to lvl. 100. I was a sad child.

That must have taken you a lot of time. I hope they all had crappy movesets, so that the loss of this data is not as harsh as it would seem.

You guys, what the fuck? There's a morph ball button on the touch screen in Hunters, same as there are weapon selection buttons. Seriously. Anyway if the single-player game is anything like the training missions it's not very metroidy at all, just generic FPS. You have ammo for your power beam for fuck's sake. I just hope they make more 2D metroids. I don't care if they make them with 3D graphics and 2D gameplay (à la Mischief Makers) as long as the gameplay is indeed 2D. I will now link here. This concerns me greatly.

Eh. Upon closer inspection I see that there are. Huh. I wasn't really paying attention to the touch screen since their usage of it it's terribly good.

Anyway, to answer your statement, yes. I must admit that Metroid Prime: Hunters does not feel like Metroid it. In my opinion, Metroid Prime was quite a bit like the 2D metroids, and MP2 was a step in a different direction, but not really *bad.* MP:H, at least from the demo, seems like they went and took the whole concept and threw it out the window, then made a generic FPS with a somewhat metroidy theme.

Also, is anyone else horrified at the decision to make Metroids killable with just the power beam? I mean, it could be done without the ice beam in Metroid Prime in Prime 2 but if I recall correctly required quite a few super missiles. MP2 same, but, you can seriously kill them just by shooting them enough here. It's not ****ing right.

First Hunt is a demo. The single player stuff in it is listed as training. I highly doubt that the real game will be like this, since Regulator was simply a straight path with enemies. Training missions don't tend to be large mazes with hidden items and a large variety of enemies, and thus what's presented in First Hunt seems rather fitting. I honestly see little chance of the final game being as FPS-like as this, though it may be more like that than Prime 1 and 2 because of the inclusion of Power Beam ammo (not a good idea, in my opinion). We'll have to wait and see.

Zem said: "You guys, what the fuck? There's a morph ball button on the touch screen in Hunters, same as there are weapon selection buttons. Seriously."

My thoughts, exactly. The morph ball button is *required* for Regulator, so how anyone who's play the demo couldn't know about it is kinda surprising.

Nope, all of them were battle ready

My Slowbro had Amnesia, Withdraw, Psychic, Doubleteam. It was pretty damned tough.
In fact, I had an all Slowbro team because nothing could really touch them and all their stats are generally good.

That's really too bad =/ Though on the subject, I use Surf > Psychic because of it has more PP and power, and Rest > Withdraw so no one can screw you over with Toxic or something.

I have to agree with you there. If you've seen screens of the new single player game, it looks -very- Metroid-eee. They can't teach you to find items, now can they? =() The entire -style- of the game missions (other than the fact that they're sucky training missions to tell you how to kill enemies) is Metroid like.

I'm an item man.

That was the setup of one of my other Slowbros, Amnesia, Rest, Substitute, Surf. I had lots of them. They were all fun.

I'd ask you to do a pixel stylus but I figure that's waaaay too complex for the likes of you.

Oh, I hope so. I have not seen screenshots of the full version. However, even if that is the case it wouldn't appease my wanting for 2D metroid games.

windwaker: I like it.

I got a DS yesterday. Only one store in about 10 that I went to had it, and that was bundled in with a starter kit and Spiderman 2. It's pretty good, the only problem is that I wish you could change what buttons you can use for GBA games. No, I haven't played Spiderman 2 yet. I'm probably gonna trade that in for Super Mario 64DS.

Edit: Got SM64DS, it's pretty good, especially the minigames.

They sold a DS here in the Netherlands in some game store. They had over 10 for sale. I got excited 'till I heard the price...

Importing costs + the store's going to want to make a VERY good profit off the import.
