Q: Why is this still not available to pre-order? It has been listed on Gamestop for months already :(

A: Keep checking online because more pre-orders may become available before release date. Otherwise whatever next batches of product Nintendo ships will likely go to stores on release day and that morning they should have extra on top of the reserved pre-orders. Sometimes they have yet to open the box and put on the shelf but they will if you inquire.

Q: Will this be restocking?

A: Most likely no. Nintendo special editions are usually very limited and do not last past the initial pre-order window.

Q: Hi. This is game is still not available for pre-order. I wanted to pre-order this to get the $10 in best buy rewards but this was never available for pre-order for some reason. Can a best buy team member help me out? I'm GCU.

A: It's out now

Samus's Back!
The gameplay is excellent, the music is outstanding. An adventure full of mystery and action. +Samus +Full 3D Effect +Music -Focus on the new counter attack skill a little too much -Special Edition is lacking compared to other countries

My dream was answered!!! A Metroid 2 Remake!
When Nintendo Showed their Nintendo Direct during E3 and gave us two metroids-Metroid 2 remake and Metroid Prime 4; you could clearly see the reaction by majority of players. A 2D and a 3D metroid a little over a year apart is a dream come true. I ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS, wanted a remake of Metroid 2 for any platform whether it was a handheld or on console; a remake was absolutely necessary. Its, because Metroid 2 on the original gameboy is so outdated, it should have been released on the SNES like super metroid if it were possible. Anyway, I have never finished Metroid 2 on the gameboy as I was too young to fully comprehend it at the time, but with the Remake nearly 20 years later, I can fully experience it they way it was meant to be played. I love this game and I can't wait for Metroid Prime 4(2018/2019). It will be amazing. The game includes Metroid: Samus Returns case and cartridge, and soundtrack that is on a compact disc. It includes a few soundtracks from EVERY metroid game from Metroid 1 all the way to this metroid. Yes.....Every single one-Metroid 1,super metroid, Prime 1, Prime 2 Echoes, Prime 3 corruption, Zero Mission, Fusion,etc. Make sure you also get the metroid amiibos to unlock the content in this game. 4 amiibos are Zero Suit Samus, Varia Suit Samus, Metroid 2 Samus, and Metroid Squishy Amiibo in the dual pack.
