I can’t wait to replay Metroid Prime on Wii
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NxZULNIIpdE[/youtube] Watching the comparison video of Metroid Prime on GameCube versus Wii got me excited to play it again. I prefer the controls of Metroid Prime 3 to the original, but I like the story and level progression of the original over 3, so I’m pretty excited for the new play control version to come to the States.

Play the Perfect Prosecutor Demo online
You can now play the Perfect Prosecutor demo online, and of course it will be in Japanese… but I found a translation reference to work around that.

Final Fantasy IV Sequel being ported to the Wii
Silconera has dug up some juicy information regarding a sequel to the ever so popular Final Fantasy IV, and found out that the [ESRB] has reviewed and rated the game for release in the US. Which is interesting since I thought that Square-Enix was against releasing their “Cell Phone” games over here, but since we all know that the Wii prints out cash for whoever develops for it and we a...
