Game Description
Once again, Nintendo takes one of its classic franchises and gives it a next-generation update, keeping the fundamentals of character and gameplay while pushing the limits of new hardware. As intergalactic bounty hunter Samus Aran, your quest is to explore Tallin IV and stop a crew of evil space pirates. This sequel to the SNES gem Super Metroid features a new first-person perspective and updates the action to full 3D. The action revolves around exploration, puzzle solving, and, of course, firepower. Old favorites like the Freeze and Wave beams will be available, along with a new arsenal of sci-fi weaponry.
