Its scheduled to be bundled with metroid hunters, quite a strategic choice by Nintendo I might add. Since they are planning to sell this system on the poer of multiplayer. I preordered one already, man, I can't wait                    
And as I sat down on the couch, reached down and grabbed the controller, I most nonchalantly looked over, barely gracing him with my eyes. I uttered calmly these simple and truthful words. \"Spread ur cheeks and bite down, cause now you are F*@%ED!\"

NINTENDO rules ..!  the DS will allow them to dominate the mobile gaming market for years to come.. can't wait to see when Gamecube graphix hit mobile markets in 5 years or so... the DS is only on par with the N64 . Whilst the sony product is supposedly as powerful as a PS2 [according to specs]  but at a loss of battery life... and increase in price .

actually nintendo is really pushing the metroid franchise right now, they are rumoured to be bundling metroid prime, metroid prime2 echoes and a gamecube for    ahem..... $99. usd


actually no, they are bundling Metroid and a DEMO of metroid prime2 with a platinum gamecube. I bought one last week to play the demo to beat the demo in 5 MINUTES. bummer :-x

I would like to apologize for an oppsie i made in this. I just foundout it isnt an actual copy of the game but only a DEMO of metroid hunters. My bad

the pic of the box is huge, so if you get a red X its not my fault. i tried
