Metroid Hunters is out on the 20th of March 2006 (in US) not sure of Europe Australia is 25th of May.

Well i absolutely can't wait for it to come out here, i actually held off buying a DS waiting for this game to come out, just incase it came with a limited edition M:H DS.

But i had to buy a DS just recently as i won a Comp and i got sent Mario & Luigi Partners in Time over 2 weeks before it was released here in Australia.
So now i got Mario Kart DS (it came bundled with the DS)

The Official Hunters site will list the top 5 bounty hunters (they won't be me) i plan to get online with DS at a later date...

And the Official site will also list who is the most popular character that every one is using.

I just hope the offline adventure is good while i wait to get online.

It sounds good, but it won't be the same, since you must aim and fire with the touch pad.
Also I have a video from IGN.http://media.ds.ign.com/media/682/682835/vids_1.html

I can honestly say that this will be the only Metroid game that I have ever gotten.

Except one, Metroid Fusion, but I never play that one. I figure this one will give me interest in the series. ;)

And, voice chat as well, you can't forget that one either. :p

I highly doubt that. There were different shooting modes in the demo version, (Also the same for Goldeneye) so why would this be any different?

Anyway, I'm definantly getting this. I want to reserve it, infact, as I want to be a different hunter other than Samus. (W00t for teh new heroes!) I'll probably be Weavel or Sylux. Which one would you be?

I'd either be Trace or Weavel.
That aiming thing is good. You could use diffrent modes while getting used to the touch aim. It seems the ultimate way. Not worse- just diffrent and possibly better.

Good luck! You might want to reserve it, though, because I had to wait 5 days with my reservation to Nintendogs, and this will probably take much longer.

Why do they need a delay of two months just to do some translating?

You try translating an entire game's worth of dialog, complete with testing the readability and coherency of it all within just a couple days. Especially for Europe, where there's more than one language ;)

If you have one translater for each language, then have them work on translating everyday, they could have them done in a week. Then another week to check for grammer and stuff.

I just wanted to say that I recently went to Nintendo today, and there was news about various things in Metroid. One of them caught my eye. According to the topic Ice Mario made, "Disconnecting Scum," many of you were dissapointed with losers disconnecting in Mario Kart when they were about to lose.

Well, with what Andy calls, "The Chump Meter," the game automatically recognizes when a player disconnects before the fight is over.

You see, a normal player starts with 100% percent on this meter. However, when they disconnect, the meter starts to lower itself. So, before you fight a person in WiFi, you can see this percent. According to the number, you can choose to fight, or to blow them off, fearing you'll waste your time with fighting them.

Just wanted to point that out. ;)

Also i heard that it's when they turn the ds of that it counts, NOT if you lose connection accidently via bad connection etc...
