Title: New Wii budget Series

Sweet.  There have been a couple of titles I've wanted to replace, but couldn't bring myself to shell out the cash.  With the Wii's disc reading sensitivity, I really like to by my games for it new, so this will be a good chance to do so.

All of the Wii games I want are still new, and there are games on other consoles that I want more, so this will not benefit me very soon (or possibly ever, seeing as how certain Gamcube games are still $40 used).

Still, nice to see that it's finally happening.

*edit*

OKAY, APPARENTLY METROID OTHER M AND SIN & PUNISHMENT ARE ALREADY $20 AT GAMESTOP. WHAT THE HECK.

Opinion?

I heard over and over about how awful Samus' monologues are, but how's the game over all?

I actually haven't played it that much 'cause I also got FFXIII that day and I picked up Mass Effect like 2 days ago. So I've been playing those more.

But I'm not quite sure I like the whole switching from side scrolling to first person thing.  I guess I like it so far though, other than that. But I haven't gotten that far in it yet. I actually don't mind the monologue stuff, but that may just be me.

It was mediocre.
The storyline wasn't awful, but it's not great either.
Samus' characterization was just plain horrible.

"Nintendo will drop the price of the Wii to $149"
