MP3 will fully utilize the Wiimote and show the gaming world what the Wii is capable of. No PS3 game will come close. If PS3 sales are bad now, wait until MP3.

After all, why pay $600 to play some good games when you can pay $250 to play the best?

I have one word

GTA4

THe name alone sells.

But, it's on the 360. A cheaper system. So i doubt the ps3's will sell much.

MP3 is a great game, but please.  It won't kill the PS3.

I'm getting sick of you. :roll:

No single game can destroy a system, let alone Metroid Prime. And maybe I'll pay $600 for the PS3 because it has plenty of games other than Metroid Prime 3, which I don't even want.

There is no doubt in my mind that MP3 will be an incredible gaming experience, however, it will not lead to the downfall of the PS3.  People will still go to the PS3 for the raw power and great graphics.

I was with u till the 2nd sentence and i lost interest. If u Look at it though PS3 isnt doin to well and if i continues selling the way it does ill become a liability and they will need to stop production.

While I don't share ironmaidenlive's opinion, at least how he said it I think Metroid Prime 3 will show the gaming world something. Mainly how a FPS type game should be done on the Nintendo Wii, control wise. At least that's what I hope. It should be able to set a standard all other developers can follow. All reports say the controls are great and extremely well done. If that is the case it should make developers wake up and say "So that's how it should be done.". Though some might be close already.

Metroid Prime is highly acclaimed series (I don't see what's the big deal about it honestly), but it's not as popular as a lot of games that are out there....something like Pokemon Battle Revolution will hurt 360 and PS3 sales.

It's about time that an FPS game shows great control from the Wii-mote, not much else has been really superb in that department yet...

 

  

 

Just an example. "Bu, bu, MP3 is Nintendo first party!"  It's one game, unless the third parties really start to shine, it's still just one game.

for the people that think the PS3 is "going down in a ring of fire", think again. Hopefully you will come to the realistic conclusion that although they won't dominate the market like they did last gen (time played a large advantage for Sony), their gonna do just fine regardless. Its here to stay.

MP is not even a major system seller. You should have used Super Mario Galaxy or Super Smash Bros Brawl for that argument.

In any case, one game is not enough to kill a console.

Metriod Prime sold well but Metriod Prime 2 sold like dirt; a lot of people are turn off by Metroid Prime's gameplay as you can see so they didn't bother purchasing the second of the series. What makes you think a series that can barely sell 250,000 units can make a system collapse? If any game PlayStation should fear from the Wii, it should be Super Smash Brother Brawl or some other high selling games that attract casual gamers.

Unless MP3 is the mini game oriented BS that casuals and nongamers like then it won't move many consoles, it doesn't matter how advanced the controls are.  It's like trying to market a game like Killer 7 to the Madden crowd, no matter how impressive it actually is they probably won't see it.

You assume that the only people who own a Wii are either kiddy, elderly, or casual college kids. The truth is that the Wii has a broad audience. Something a console needs to succeed.

I think SSBB and Super Mario Galaxy could very well establish the Wii as the best console for the money. These games are going to be crazy fun.
