Description
Take aim at adventure gaming and sci-fi shoot-'em-up thrills as bounty hunter Samus Aran rockets her way to Nintendo GameCube and planet Tallon IV. The venerable Metroid series starring Samus exploded onto the scene in 1986, and two sequels later, fans still haven't gotten enough.
Doing justice to the original, the developers at Retro Studios charge full-speed ahead with a brand-new ballistic adventure that comes heavily armed with high-caliber gameplay, including first-person adventuring as seen through Samus's combat, scan and other high-tech visors.
Loaded with classic weapons from the previous Metroid games and an arsenal of all-new weapons, Metroid Prime is an adrenaline-charged alien-blasting adventure that's worth setting your sights on.

Metroid Prime's brilliant, extremely original design is a better-than-perfect transition from Retro to next-generation gameplay.
