Hmm Sounds like they haven't screwed up the voice of Samus. Still the actual gameplay footage still looks like a tech demo :-(

I don't like the way Samus looks because she looks too 'JRPGish'.  She also looks like she is 12 years old.

Wow, Samus looks almost as feminine as a male Final Fantasy character.

I'd like to see some gameplay of this game. I find myself more interested in this than any other Wii game coming out.

I'm always disappointed by games/movies like this. They make the story seem really nice and thoughtful in the trailers, but it's all kind of rendered pointless once the hero/heroin starts blasting the shit out of people as if the story and game are separate.

I really liked that, her voice and the style of that sci-fi city, although I have never liked a Metroid game before, this one looks interesting 
 
Some actual attempt at a story in a Metroid game, this could be awesome

Why is it Japanese developers display emotions in games as if they've just read about them in a book?

Blond Anakin stares out across Coruscant, brooding over the huge changes in his world view he has recently undergone. Changes that will one day lead to him putting on a huge suit of armor and run around killing lots of stuff. 
 
And then he gets a sex change.

Samus is looking kind of short. Is isn't she supposed to be 6'1 or something outside of the suit?

idk, i'm willing to give it shot.  Kinda interested to see what Team Ninja's take on the game is.  though i am surprised she doesn't have gigantic breasts...that usually is the Team Ninja way.

Probably the entirety of character development and insight in 1 minute of CG. Great.

So is she really 12?  Or is she like a young adult but looks young because she is asian (the stereotype is that asian's are supposed to look young I think).  I'm actually surprised she looks so japanese because in SSB she was clearly white.

O_o *spitting water at the screen* Samus is talking, OMG! 
Ok, now to really talk about this. Her voice does fit her character and this is probably before she got the long hair.

What the hell is the Other M?  Is it Metroid as opposed to Mario or something?

Damn this looks awful. And has terrible writing. And nothing else.

Could've just shown a pile of old metroid games with someone pouring feces over them to make the point a bit more subtle.

They should have kept Jennifer Hale as the voice actor of Samus.   I mean she did the Prime games and is also Female Shepard(Mass Effect) and Naomi Hunter(MGS4)

Could this really be happening?? Samus has turned emo?!
My image of Samus has always been an 80s Linda Hamilton type chick with nothing to lose. Not some whiney teen who can't stop staring into the distance.

Retro made her look like a real woman who actually would be capable of kicking ass in Prime 1.
 
Japan has been hastily turning her back into a tiny anime character ever since.
