Hell yes! I have been waiting for Smash for so damn long. Sure I own the cart already (as with SMK and Pilotwings), but I have about 1 or 2 working N64 controllers at this point. For the likely 1000 Wii Points I can download this and use the superior GameCube controller - my controller of choice for the entire series.

Metroid Prime 4: Beyond Review

It’s been a long time since we’ve seen an entry in the Metroid Prime series - 18 years, in fact. It was 8 years ago that Metroid Prime 4 was originally announced and its development was more than a little turbulent. Initially developed by Bandai Namco, it was later scrapped completely and development was shifted back to Retro Studios to start the project over. In the end, Retro has delivered a solid new entry in the series, but one that doesn’t totally capture what originally made the series so compelling.
