I've heard a couple people say that we'll get Metroid Prime 3 info. Please tell me where this is indicated. If I'm the Nine-thousanth
person to ask, you'll have to forgive me. This thread is just too long to read every single post.
I agree the series has always been single player and should stay that way hopefully Retro Studios if focusing in creating a fantastic single player experience and not wasting time and resources in multiplayer after all metroid is an action/adventure series not an online FPS.
The counter updates at 12 am [midnight] Japan time, which translates to 8 am PST or 11 am EST. So if it updated this morning at 8 am PST to show '2 days left', then the countdown should be complete on Monday May 21st at 8 am PST / 11 am EST.
It says copyright HAL / Nintendo, because HAL was the original developer of the game. Some old team members from HAL that worked on Melee are working with Sakurai on Brawl [that was confirmed on the old website], but the actual developer isn't involved as far as we know.
I disagree, though IMO they should get the single player down first. Hunters has a awsome multiplayer, and after most or a good portion of the single player is done, online multiplayer should be done, somewhat similar to Hunters. Just as long as Retro Studios gets the single player down first, then they should work on a mulitplayer similar to Hunters'. (plus playing as other characters is nice) I want a exellent single player like MP1&2, and multiplayer like Hunters, and I'll be more than happy!
Okay thanks, so I'll be up by 8 before I go to school, watch the trailer, go to school, and constantly find myself saying "zomg that trailer of brawl was awsome, can't wait to get it", and stuff like that!
Thanks Mr.GAW. IGN has always been a reliable source of gaming news so if someone on their staff has hinted that we'll Metroid news soon, that's good enough for me.
So long as they take their time on the single player, and don't sacrifice any of that time for multiplayer, it should be fine. They can just create an excellent single player game, and THEN delay the game for multiplayer. IMO, that would be worth it, and if it was good enough, it might convince someone to by a Wii instead of a 360. Just my 2 cents.
Basically exactly what I said, and I don't think I can agree more. The single player needs to be well off before Retro Studios goes and makes the multiplater (online). Idc if MP3 gets delayed for online, as long as the online is awsome! Seriously, awsome online in MP3 could play a huge roll in the Wii market, and Retro Studios and Nintendo realize that, and the same thing goes, probably to a much higher extreme with Brawl.
No problem.
Yeah, sorry, I'm just now reading the posts below Sensai's that I quoted, I didn't see that anyone had responded to that yet.
Ya, but the online, along with Brawl's could definitely together be a great competition for Halo 3, and if Retro Studio dedicates enough time to the online, it will be played for a very long time. You would be surprised how well a good one console only FPS with online could do, and how much it could help a system. Considering how MP is a huge step out of the normal FPS, this effect only is greater, and if Retro Studio uses this to their advantage, they'll have a game that is one of the most played online games for a long time, thus boosting the Wii's sales amongst gamers.
So I'm not the only one.
Is that ticking a time bomb of n00bs, or a time bomb for "zomg this character is sick", or both=? I still can't deciede which one it is! 
Gah dang it I have exams, well at least I wont have to stay up all night and wait for the info...
****. I won't get up until 2 on Monday. I'll have to wait until then, I guess.
feeew...thank god there going to do it on exam week which i get to leave school at 9:45 otherwise I would be able to see the countdown.
To add a little more confidence in you nintendo.com says its a MAJOR Update, so unless they REALLY planned to let us down with that we think its got to be something.
It is actually 8:45, and it is sorta an odd story. Seriously, last year we started at 8:20, everyone was late (I was late all the time!
), and then at the end of last year the school staff had us vote on what time school shoukld start, 8:00, 8:20, or 8:45. So naturally, we all choose 8:00, because it had the least amount of time, 8:20 was the current schedule, and 8:45 added 10 or so minutes.
