So who's getting this game? I loved the first two Primes, and I have this one pre-ordered. 
The trailer from the channel you download looks AMAZING.

Is there a demo for it out? 'cause the EB near me has the game out for play (which, oddly, looked better to me than the demos, but 480 progressive shouldn't be making that much of a difference over 480 interlaced, should it?).
No, no demo
I'm not a graphics junkie, so the graphics weren't really what I was looking at 
And I have no idea how 480p vs. 480i would look. Well, after playing it for a couple days, I can safely say it's a must-buy for anyone with a Wii. The Wiimote + Nunchuck works SO much better than the other Prime's clunky lock-on system, and graphics-wise it's easily the best game on the Wii.
EDIT: Double-post FTL. Merge please.
Spaz: I'll just leave it, it was 3 days after the other post.
EDIT by GIR: Merge'd

Man It was about time for the Wii to get a decent game, I'd pick it right now.. If I weren't european. But as soon as it gets here, I'm 100% sure about picking it up. Prime 1 & 2 were awesome, despite the control issues, and this is the last one in the Prime series. My only fear is it being too short.
I like the prime series (even Prime Hunters despite being a bit dissapointing) but now they only need to make a new 2D metroid for the Ds (Dread?) and they can just wait for the money to fall right into their heads. My money, at least.
Yeah, Hunters was a disappointment.
And I stink at the multiplayer, so...
And another 2D Metroid would be amazing.EDIT: Added spoiler, don't know if that's a spoiler per se, but...

Hm. Now that I've gotten off my lazy butt found time to finish it, I'll necromance the thread. It took me about 15.5 hours on Normal, but it seemed like a lot less... And lol about Prime 1; I never actually finished it I beat the final boss on my friend's game, and I'm up to it on mine, so I've "technically" beat it... Now to cajole someone into buying a Wii and the game so I can get Friend Vouchers...
[edit] Yeah, I hope Veteran ramps up the difficulty a lot... I think I only died once, maybe twice. The final boss was rather pathetic... The "timer" kinda balanced it though.

I'd suggest putting those in spoilers, 
. Aside from the War Golem bit, since I don't think there's any way of knowing that's a boss until you fight it (unlike with the others).
I don't remember any of Prime 2's bosses, except for the last two. On the same lines, I don't remember Prime's very much either, but I enjoyed Prime's world more than Echoes'. After playing Corruption (and feeling like we were handed nearly every power-up in the game), I can't really remember whether Prime was anywhere near as bad about that.
I didn't pick up Zero Mission. Was it just a port, or a full remake of the original? I faintly recall one of my friends having to screw jump a long ways in a narrow area for a missile expansion, or something, and I don't think the screw jump was in the original.
It's surprising that more people don't speed-run the 3D Metroids. I mean, Metroid was probably responsible for inventing the concept. I know it's been done, but it's certainly more common with the 2D games.
