Download MP-3 On the WII - Demo

I realize it is an old idea.
And not even a demo.

But do like using whole system to promote the game with a different Metroid game until Prime 3 comes out.

Granted it is only two weeks.

But hey, it keeps the idea of Metroid in people's head.

Now if they do it for Mario and Brawl....

Yea, I checked out the preview channel today...not too amazing, but I did notice the cursor was silky smooth...

They should definitely release a dedicated channel to streaming video previews, not just Metroid ones. I've seen all the videos on my computer, but somehow seeing them on my Wii made me that much more excited to get the game.

It looked like damage control to me. Particularly after IGN's scathing article about how bad Nintendo's promotion of the title has been. Only a couple weeks to release and they just added the game to the official Metroid website.

Don't get me wrong, the game looks amazing. That's actually why I'm so disgusted with Nintendo. It looks to be an exceptional title and the lack of support it has gotten from Nintendo can hardly be excused.

Just because they didn't give 20 million to their marketing department to promote the game doesn't mean Retro didn't go balls deep in game development. I think good game design will be enough of a push.

Knock on wood, etc.
