Exploring Nintendo’s Metroid Prime 3 | Video Gameography

Season one of Game Informer’s Video Gameography explores the history of the Metroid series, and this episode is set to wrap our talk on Retro Studio’s epic trilogy of Prime with a detailed discussion of Metroid Prime 3: Corruption. 

Metroid Prime 3 Corruption, released for Nintendo Wii in August 2007, is often regarded as one of Nintendo’s best motion-sensing games. Today’s program will discuss what 2007 was like and how Prime 3 is often overlooked in the noise. The innovative motion controls of Prime 3 and Hypermode, which enabled Samus to do some real damage, are also discussed. We speculate on whether Samus could be considered an intergalactic Batman.
