What would you rate Metroid: Other M? |
I have not purchased or played Metroid: Other M yet, but I have a friend that has offered to mail me his copy after he finishes it, so I can try it. I may take him up on that offer, once I finish a few more games!
I think the sales rank of Metroid: Other M on Amazon.com does show that the sales for the game look to have dropped off considerably, for what I would think is a "core" Nintendo franchise game. I don't know if Nintendo plans to continue advertising Metroid: Other M any during the Christmas season this year, or if the live-action commercial is the only one they plan on showing, but I think it will be interesting to see how sales continue for it in the next few months.
If you didn't see the live-action commercial for Metroid: Other M, you can watch it right here!
As for the play-time hours, it seems the average play-time per person reported is about how long the single-player campaign for Metroid: Other M takes to complete(9 hours, from what I have read). I would imagine most of the users reporting play-time data for Metroid: Other M have already finished the main campaign, and may now be trying to get 100% in it.
Questions:
Did anybody here purchase Metroid: Other M, and if so, how much have you played it? If you have completed the campaign, do you see Metroid: Other M as a game that you will play multiple times? Or, is once enough?
