The part on the lift is starting to piss me off. I cabn handle the Zebesians just fine, but that one thing, I dunno. Can't figure out his pattern, his attacks just come too fast.
Get used to that guy, you'll see him a LOT in the coming levels :P As for his attack patterns, use sensemove when he charges the purple beam, and fire a missile at him when he charges a red beam.

Sensemove, you mean the dodge thing? Edit: Oh, hey! I got him without firing a single missile.

I'm having fun, yet slightly disturbed by how something so cute and fuzzy, can turn into something so big and ugly. O.o

Omega Metroid is friggin impossible without all the little Metroids gang raping me. I barely got rid of three of them. Not exactly sure what my strategy is here.

Dunno. But you have to use a super missile on the Metroids once you freeze them, a normal missile won't work. Also, the Queen Metroid is invincible until you destroy the flunky Metroid she produces. So ignore her and focus on the little guys.

I tried taking out the smaller Metroids last night, but they just keep swarming all over me. For some reason, I can't get them all in a small enough group to freeze them all with a single Charge Shot. Otherwise, taking them down with Super Missiles wouldn't be that hard. They kinda over complicated this fight. Edit: Apparently, this fight is impossible for me. The damned Metroids just keep swarming me. Only way I'm going to get passed this fight is by a miracle. And seriously. Did they have to make the Metroids so damn impossible to hit? Edit edit: Holy crap! I just had a miracle. Now I can fight the big sucker.

I should have returned to a save station after beating the big Metroid. Because I don't have enough energy to be fighting these five big guys MB just created.

OTOH, if you are going to add characterization to your heroic mime, at least try to make the character likable. I think that this has been the main objection in this thread. (Of course I can't give a personal opinion because I don't even own a Wii, much less have played the game.)

She should have at least had good voice acting. I mean, her voice actor pretty much just sounded like she was phoning it in.

I partially agree (though as I said above, I think her voice actress is perfectly average). There are times where she's really good, which just contrasts her phoning-it-in moments even more. The other voice acting in the game is pretty good, I thought. I especially liked Adam's VA. He made Adam someone who is simultaneously likeable and a total douchebag.

Hehe, I full agree about Adam. He was actually quite likeable. I actually almost cried when he locked Samus out of Sector 0. Total douchebag up until the end, then heselflessly sacrifices his own life to take out Sector 0 so Samus can handle everything else. ...That douchebag! Everything else is even harder!

They should have at least had the decency to put in a save point after the Queen metroid. Because they fight after that is nearly impossible, because I hardly have any health left. And then there's no fuckin' way to concentrate during that battle cause it's solely that first person crap.

Fairly anti-climactic ending, if you ask me. Still not sure how I beat the final fight, there. Kind of a twist ending, though. Kinda funny how the dude survived, although not much was explained about it, and it explains how the ship stopped moving. xD

The final fight you beat by targeting MB. You can actually do it after only killing two enemies in that final section. I can forgive the ending because it subverts the whole black-dude-dies-first thing by the making the black dude the only GF trooper to survive to the end! When I first saw him in the trailer I was thinking "he's first to go", but I came out surprised!

I was surprised too. I was sure he was a goner. Then after the ship just suddenly up and stopped, I wondered what the hell was going on. xD After Anthony showed up at the end, it was a major shock, and we all knew it couldn't be Adam.

Oh, is that Mysterious Black Dude? I would still like to know the context of his saying "Remember me?" without having to play the game myself! Also pictures of baby Ridley would be nice.
put yourself in my rocketpack if that poochie is one outrageous dude

The "Remember me?" guy was(is) part of Adam's crew when Samus worked with him. And the best shot of the baby ridley I found on the net: http://www.metroid-database.com/mom/choogle.jpg
