  • legit game here

  • Best nds game hands down

  • "I'll see you online as cannon-fodder..."

    XD

  • The reviewer sounds depressed. :(

  • WTF, This game supports voice chat??? Why haven't I've seen good games like this on 3DS...

  • @iamthebomb17 Because the 3DS just came out 6 months ago. When the Nintendo DS was released, the only good game was Super Mario 64 DS for quite a while.

  • I have it and love it. Just one problem though: how come my DSi can hook up to my WAP/WAP2 wifi but this game only supports WEP wireless routers??

  • @HomeRemote64 Because this game was made for DS which only supports WEP wireless routers. If you have your wireless settings to WAP/WAP2, change them to WEP

  • I think online support for this game was shut down. No matter my connection I can't get a game anymore, always displays errors. nowadays only pokemon and such work.

  • @2854neil single card play is Ds download Thingy btw.

  • @2854neil yes tested it with my bro there is definitely single card play

  • @2854neil I think so yeah I think so but it's better with multicard play apparently. I will test out and reply soon

  • Can u change languages in this game

  • @crazydave360 do u know if there is ds download play on Metroid Prime Hunters

  • Sum1 pls reply asap is it possible to change the language settings on it coz mine is in japanese and I'm English

  • This man talks way too fast!

  • the multiplayer kicks ass, too bad no one plays it anymore :(

  • @darkentity1000 i would play it with you but my internet won't work maybe because i am using a dsi

  • Thums up if you think Halo copied Metriod!

  • @MicrosoftAlertZ lol wtf, they're both sci fi first person shooters and came out the same year. da fuk you talking about. however i do prefer metroid prime

  • @MicrosoftAlertZ I think Halo took inspiration from many sci-fi games, like Half Life and Metroid. However, what made Halo good was the innovative console controls and multiplayer. 

  • Is there also Offline Bot Deathmatch or is there any FPS for DS and 3DS that has these feature

  • @applefreak441 ya it has bots

  • the adventure mode completely sucks

  • The cutscenes are amazing, but the thing that kinda ruins it for me is the gameplay....i admit...i suck at that metroid game...its because of the whole gameplay i mean like i died with 4 or 5 shots from a mini boss and the shooting and the targeting are awkward to handle... i mean the controls are really weird as well...maybe it was just destiny that i actually am really good at the GC and WII primes....i do hope they update it and add new things on the 3DS the game looks promising .

  • He sounds like he's just reading off a piece of paper without any emotion

  • @AFilms01 wAS THINKING EXACTLY THE SAME THING lolz

  • Multiplayer was probably the only good thing about this game...

    The story mode was very lackluster, and I was very disappointed.

  • one of the best games ive ever played,absolutly amazing!

  • i remember those endless friday nights playing online till 3 am with random strangers

    my life sucks :(

  • @dgmc09productions Cheer up, mine doesn't.

  • MPH was the best game for dsi hands dont first gamme i got for it, multiplayter should've had private matches!

  • i have questions to ask here. 1. by 1 million people are lucky does he mean there are only 1 million copies? 2. is this game still avalibe today like at game stop? 3.do people still play online today? 4. anybody please answer these questions!

  • @mehpipi He was talking about the "First Hunt" versions which came bundled with Nintendo DSs when they first came out. That was the demo of the full game. That being said, I don't think this game is being sold new anymore since it came out in 2006 (5 years ago), so the only place you would find it at Gamestop would be in the used section. IT should be pretty easy to find the full version online, though.

  • @SalientK do people still play this online though?

  • @mehpipi I really don't know because I haven't owned it in a while. There are probably at least a few, but I don't know if it would be enough to make the experience varied and enjoyable. People still played the original Xbox Live up until it closed, and there are even people still playing online Dreamcast games on private servers, so there's definitely an online audience for old games. I wouldn't know what to tell you for sure, though.

  • @SalientK  one more thing,what is it really called metroid prime hunters or metroid prime hunters:first hunt?

  • @mehpipi The full game is called Metroid Prime Hunters. The demo was called First Hunt.

  • Deep and impressive? I'm sorry, but this game was lackluster at best. It's a shame too because the three main Prime games are still good (yes, even Prime 2 is good).

    While this may never happen (due to them being done with the prime series), I would like to see a major remake that really updates this game...for the 3DS.

  • this games is awesome even today

  • im lefthanded, and i cant find it anywhere in the option to change it, beccause i cant play the game like this, holding the stylus in my right had just doesnt feel comfortable, anyone knows if there is such an option in the game?

  • mereoid prime is NOT a shooter!!!

  • I'm gonna get this game. It looks awesome!!! Can you like give me ur friend code coz online looks real good.

  • game looks awesome but the guy talknig really doesn't make you want to get it. His voice is soooooo boriiiiiingggg

  • I got this game in gamestop, i was having trouble with it cause i'm a lefty, I didn't know i could change the controls (cause i didn't bother looking) until i read the comments here

  • @Remited201 WHERE did u do that? i dont play the game because i cant find that setting, please help!

  • @b1gbudda When you're on the main menu at the bottom right there is a symbol with a picture of two circles and underneath it says options. Click on it and the 2nd option is controls. I miss that game, I beat it 100% then got bored and completed the other Prime games. However, every now and then I play it and it brings back so many memories.

  • Make MPH2 for 3DS with GC like graphics and add more hunters to choose from in multiplayer and it will be best game ever

  • Can't wait for Metriod 3DS.

  • This game looks like it has good graphics

    Why cant the people who make these games stop being lazy and make them have better graphics?

    This game looks cool!

    The only problem is that my ds has trouble getting on the internernet

    Well looks like a good game for d.s!

    Thumbs up if you agree!

  • @TheJaws99 Because they don't need to; the purpose of graphics in a game is to compensate for shortcomings in the game itself; that's why games like Halo and Call of Duty need to have really good graphics, while games like Metroid and Zelda don't.

  • @TheJaws99 Nintendo is not like that, they are not lazy. They don't improve on graphics cause they know that is what seperates them from Microsoft and Sony. Nintendo focuses on one thing "innovation".

  • the graphics are better than the Cod's for the ds

  • best ds game i know... and after 4 years i still play it

  • i love this game,but since im used to playing bigger controllers*cough*dreamcast*co­ugh*it took a while to get used to the controlls

  • Nintendo. Metroid prime hunters is the only good online game for DS and Mario Kart wii is the only good one for wii. Step up a bit

  • @Railware theres also mario kart dfs and animal crossing wild world that are good with wifi

  • @Railware hold on a minute, what about Monster Hunter Tri? That is lone of the the best games on wii, in terms of graphics and gameplay, plus it has great online.

  • @ducksgomooful I havent played that, and I wasn't aware of its existence when I made that comment.

  • @Railware sorry i kind of snapped at you, but you should definitely check it out

  • eh i dont like the story mode

    1.you cant use the cool poowers of enemy's charge blast

    2.after intense battle with a boss u have to run out of a huge map in limited tim

    3.maybe its cuz im not a great gamer (actually im not) but levels look bit too dificult

    i find half life (1) a lot more fun 

  • Comment removed

  • this game is fun and plus when you use action replay its gets even better

  • @Andyrolled action replay... PLZ dont tell me u hack on Wi-Fi.srrsly, its FUKIN annoying when i cant even get a kill, because of someone haveing the omega cannon IN COMBAT HALL. honestly, action replay was the automatic downfall for metroid prime hunters.

    its pretty hard to find a fair match online now-a-days...

  • @Melenia1000 Are there a lot of people that are still going on wi-fi? I might get this game, and it would be good if they still do.

  • @6weirdos yea, theres still an online community playing this, but nearly everyone has been reduced to hacking online matches using action replay =.='

  • @Melenia1000 no i usually never go on wifi and when i do i dont turn any cheats because i want to find someone to battle and like you said its always the hackers

  • This game was fun for a few days... but it got repetitive.

  • Best DS game ever this one is my absolute favorite. It was my first Metroid game and my first DS game and it is still my favorite.

  • I really hope nintendo makes an updated version of MPH for the 3DS...

  • @plasmacanon35 Screw that, put it on the Wii U AND the 3DS.

  • @plasmacanon35 That's why I'm holding back from buying it.

  • great game, first ds game i ever played!

  • I would donate to retro studios for a sequal on 3ds.

    not only were the graphics awsome but the gameplay was practically a PC fps game. multiplayer was epic with so many different kinds of characters/ maps/ weapons.

  • I like how one highest rated comment is about "Who gives a shit about graphics?" and the other one is talking about "THESE GRAPHICS ARE AMAZING WHO CARES ABOUT ANYTHING ELSE?!?!"

  • @wiiriketooprayFTW lol, looks like a win/win to me.

  • hope for sequal for 3ds

  • @redbuck82 you can adjust the controls so you can use a,b.x,and y to look around, and the d-pad to walk around. thats what i do, and it feels a lot more natural

  • We need metroid prime hunters 2 where we follow the story of the other bounty hunters prior to this game :D how fucking cool would that be

  • @welshwilderbeast

    imaging the sequel on the 3ds O.O

  • @Giesen93 :O WE MUST E-MAIL NINTENDO!!!!! HIGH HO SILVER AWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!

  • hope they make a metroid prime like shooter for the 3DS

  • WTF my ds came with metroid prime hunters first hunt

    OMG i'm one of the lucky million

  • this game is good, but you have to kind of, figure-out where to go yourself.

  • This and the new pokemon games are the only ones Ive actually bought for the DS. So worth every penny. I am still playing this game since its release

  • if u do a ds download of this can u still chat with that person on the mic?

  • Hey i have a question, is every level in this game timed? Does it ruin the experience if so? i kinda want this game but idk if i should get it.

  • @Snakeater222

    I don't think it's timed.

  • @Snakeater222

    Certain parts you have to escape within a time limit. But other then that no you can take as much time as you need. Multiplayer is usually timed but when I play with friends I set it to 60 mins so it is really not a problem

  • @Snakeater222 Not every level is timed, there are timed sequences (it IS a Metroid game, after all) but they add to the experience. Definitely worth getting if you can get used to the controls.

  • first ds game i played and its awesome!

  • i forgot about the headset for the DS lol who thinks they should use that for the wii?

  • This game and animal crossing wild world was my summer...

  • does this game have freeplay?

  • What was this games score?

  • i still haven't beaten it cuz my L button stoped working the other day and my t-screen is slightly scratched and everything goes off on the side *sigh*

  • nailed look for first person? so true...

  • Is this game any good?

  • @Galimah Ahem, theres retards. then theres you "is this game any good" YOUR ON A REVIEW IT TELLS YOU

  • @GearLinks There, there m8, no need for screaming. I just wanna know if it is sorta as good as the first Prime as i happen to LOVE. Just dont wanna be like...dissepointed

  • great game! you can talk to ur friends by speaking on the mic? how abut that for a DS 2006 metroid gamre. awesaome graphics and pwnager laser cannon guns. get it its worth it

  • They should really make a sidescroller metroid for the ds. Like they did to super Mario bros

  • I have yet to find a non-pc game with more precise controls than this. I really wish i hadn't sold my ds now... :(

  • They should try to make it fir the iPhone. They pulled of assassins creed so why not ?

  • @dwad561 Because metroid is owned by nintendo.

  • @RLbitClassica Oh ok I forgot

  • do you have to have a friend code to play online? someone please answer.

  • @Nintendo3101 You can play with anyone

  • you're left handed

  • does anyone know if people still play this online?Im thinking about getting it and would like to know,thanks^^

  • no the game died a few years ago to action replay. I did have a great online community for the first year or two.

  • @fretboard11 dude, there r millions of ppl plaing online, u will always find someone :P if u get the game give me ur friend code and i can show u how to play like a pro ^^ im nearly the highest rank :P

  • @sylux427 alright cool man,ill let you know when i pick it up^^

  • @fretboard11 k, cool :D

  • @sylux427 yeah my birthdays in like a week and im getting some money so ill probably be buying a ds,some games and some comics

  • @fretboard11 k, u know when u r friends on the game u can talk to each other over the mic!! :D

  • @sylux427 ill see if i can find one then^^

  • fuck you nintendo. make it 2D style

  • people think using noxus is cheating but he is my fav character i mean so wat if he freezes i mean you gotta use it up close and it only lasts about 2 seconds people should stop complaining >.>

  • yes

  • is it single card?

  • i play a whole lotta mph.. i love this game. trace ftw

  • The cutscene graphics are awsome!

  • pretty goo dgame, con: almost all of the bosses look the same, eithe ri giant penis with eyes or a flying/rolling eyeball

  • For a portable Metroid Prime it really wasnt that bad, it still had the same core gameplay, albeit a little bland.

    And the damn hackers did ruin the wif, I agree on that, it sucks =\

  • @deviant3232

    Whats the point of playing online if you are going to cheat ?

  • @dubbeltid huh? I was saying hackers ruined wifi, I never cheated.

  • @bowbay i agree, well worth the "thumbs down" im gonna get...

  • @bowbay

    Well it has alot of great reviews and im a noob as far as Metroid goes But i want good ds games. I have super mario bros geometry wars scribble nauts legend of zelda phantom hourglass and how Brain age check .

  • It is a good game for DS but its not really a metroid game. Metroid games always been focusing on a great story and single player while this one is focused on multiplayer. Like i said it is a good game but the real metroid are REALLY GREAT games =P

  • I found this IGN review kinda boring

  • i like your reviews keep up the good work

  • the graphics are very impressive if u compare them to a gameboy advance which was one generation of handhelds ago, ppl are forgetting that this is a handheld, and are comparing it to PS3 grpahics =P

  • In fact, I honestly think the DS has WAY better graphics than even the 64, which is amazing considering the small size of the cartridges.

  • @dohgameman676 its one of the best for ds but mediocre for psp

  • @thoraxtofu yea the psp has good graphics and is better then the ds and dsi but ds has better games

  • @dohgameman676 those are CPU graphics

  • I didn't find learning the controls very hard, It felt pretty much natural.

  • really??? i think metroid is pretty fun i mean come on how many dsi or ds games let u move around so freely lettin u do whatever u want? like have u watched movies of metroid? pretty cool but this game is awesome...my favorite

  • I think it'd be really cool if they remade this great game for the Wii. A couple of adjustments would be to be more creative with the boss fights (it was just Cretaphid and Slench over and over again) and to make it a bit longer.

  • This game doesn't scream Metroid to me.

  • its ok

    but its not exactly as good as 1 or 2

  • Not even CLOSE!

  • yea :\

  • YAH!

  • i cant find this game anywhere

  • you can find it on amozon really easy but in shops it might be really hard to find

  • I had been looking for one at gamestop for like 2 months and yesterday I found one, it was definately the hardest game I've ever tried to find other the the world ends with you... which I still can't find.

  • i have been looking for "custom robo arena" and "armored core: nexus" for ages like a year still no luck :(

  • my friend gave me custom robo arena cause he didn't like it

  • I get my DSi tomorrow yayayaya

  • dont get overexited i've got DSi and it isn't all that good

  • no i ain't a sony guy i like nintendo more in fact it is just the sole nintendo product that is bad is the DSi thats all xDD

  • your right the dsi is the worst thing nintendo had made. its like all they did it took a ds added a few bells flashy lights and a $180 price tag.

  • ye and it dousn't even support ds features like M3 DS real or AR or AnyThing i prefer Ds Lite !!!

  • That's so wrong, 'doesn't support AR etc' AR is illegal after all :D

    ...Even though I use it myself :p

  • if AR is illegal then why is it sold in almost every game store?

  • actually they added camera, built in memory for storing games, an SD slot, full internet, and changed the interface as well as making the screen larger. and it $160

  • it's called a DSI

  • yes that's what I was refering to, just telling avin154 how different the DSI is compared to the DS lite

  • i realy want to get this i just got my dsi lant night

  • this game is awsome!its alot like halo and as good as a ps3 game no joke!it better be in the top ten games of all time!

  • That's so true.

  • ye it really is AWESOME!!!

  • yea it's a very awesome game but modern day ppl don't pay attention to the quality of handheld games, they are much too focused on the flashy graphics of the modern day consoles to actually realize how fun the gameplay on most handheld games is... nowadays it's all about graphics and not very much about gameplay anymore.

  • @Exxile400 I'm on ur side dude...Most ppl pay attention tu stupid graphics they don't really matter...I care about FUN...F.U.N. Most of yesterday most fun games are today most stupid games like Resident Evil 5...Cool graphics cheap gameplay...

  • @Exxile400 I played this around the time is was getting games like GTA4 and shit and i loved this game more, it really was awesome, people do have to give Portable games a chance, NFS Carbon Own The City on PSP was good cause it was like an ulternate version of Carbon, if i didn't give it a chance i would never had come to play all the way through it and enjoy every moment.

  • @Exxile400 yea... but anyways there is still people that got brain and buy the good gameplay games...

  • sorta agree w u. handhelds r stereotypically immature things 2 have 4 people over 30. granted i am not over 30 n well channeled my energy to more productive career oriented goals n 1 pass time is collecting helps n spawns new hashed ideas into making something original. a.d.d. doesnt help. but i do hav a handheld n see the perspective as handhelds for people under 20. as DS n wii r two platforms n aged consumers. most people hav other things going on w out the need of another handheld device.

  • @Exxile400 wich is stupid. Handheld games will always win! Nintendo For Ever!

  • @Exxile400 im tired of the graphics being bad so the game gets a bad score

  • @Exxile400 thats true.. very true. Some of the ds games are actually more fun than the higher quality console games. oh yeah and plants vs zombies, one of the best games ever made, is actually 2D like most DS games and doesnt focus of graphics. Thats an example right there of a good game not focusing on graphics too much. its comming to DS also, i cant wait

  • @Exxile400 nah i dont care about graphics theres other reasons i dont enjoy this game

  • @Exxile400 if it was about gameplay, then 360 and ps3 would suck

  • Does that dude still play online?

  • Yeas. Very fun game indeed even with the not so great DS graphics it plays awesome
