The first of the three BIG Wii titles has finally been given a release date after much mucking around and fanboy pain. During an aforementioned Nintendo press conference earlier this month Nintendo gave the big thumbs up for Metroid Primes' final release on the 20th of August in the US, 27th of September in Europe and the 31st in Japan this year. So we can expect a release around late September/mid October, perhaps to counter the Halo 3 release? Metroid has certainly been kicked around date-wise since the pre-Wii days and was originally due to launch with the console, then rumours said it had garnered a mid 2008 release but finally us fanboys can be put to rest and mark the date with a big red pen for sometime in September/October this year... N.B. disregard the http:// from the source as this news was found by me in a Hyper, and isn't plagarised, someone buy one and confirm it...hahaha... Well that's the article, I don't have any image editing software so I can't crop it, although I cropped it on MS word but I don't know how to resave an image that has been edited on MS word...
