Awesome, a puzzle type platformer. I like the premise of having to switch between the screens to progress through the level. I'm definitely interested!

Oh man. That was GREAT! I'm going to die SO MUCH in that game, but I'll love every minute of it!

That looks seriously awesome! Heh, it's like Henry Hatsworth with double platforming.

That looks so cool! The concept seems so simple, it's shocking that no one has done something like that yet. Seems like a trick Nintendo would have used for a Zelda title.

Wow!! That's one of the most original games I've seen. I agree with 'Ram; I'm gonna do a crapload of dying, but it'll be awesome! Just...an epic use of the dual screens. :Bomberman:
(Kickass music too.)

It's Super Metroid with a jet pack and a 2 screen gimmick not to mention it has crap graphics.

I don't understand how you can say that you're excited for this... but not the NES and SNES DLC for the 3DS... :DKlose:

The only thing that this and Super Metroid have in common is that the character shoots a gun and it is a sidescroller. Many games feature this combination of elements (Contra, to name one), but it's the other features or elements that makes the games stand out. This game looks very original with switching between 2 screens, and it definitely does not look like a gimmick. To me, it looks to be both challenging, fun and original; not a weak gimmick. We will have to wait to see how good this game is when it comes out, but from the trailer, it looks like a load of fun.

I must say at the very beginning of the video I thought of Metroid, but a few seconds later it was the farthest thing from my mind. I know there have been some lousy Metroid imitations, but this game looks like a very unique and challenging game that will hopefully be pretty good.

it looks great. cant wait to try it.
I can see how it might look like Metroid to you. The main character is orange and yellow but its far from any Metroid series.
Believe me.. I know Metroid! ;)

VGM out...

I've played and beaten all the Metroid games... aside from Other M of course.

I am entitled to my opinion.

Even though I don't agree with you. This is very well put.

Im relaxed, lol. I'm not doubting that you know Metroid. I'm just saying that I feel as thought I do too...

I never said the game doesn't look fun. I said it looks like a Super Metroid rip-off with a jet pack and 2 screen gimmick with crap graphics.

I will probably still play it.

That's cool...

I still don't get it... this game could pass as a SNES re-make in my opinion.

I hope the graphics get tuned up before release, but gaming has never been about graphics for me. When I see a new gaming mechanic that nobody has tried yet, it excites me. In fact, when I see something like this it tells me they spent more time on the gameplay then they did the graphics, meaning no matter how it looks it will be more fun to play than most.
