About this product

Product Information

In Metroid Prime 2: Echoes for the Nintendo GameCube, players once again take on the role of heroine Samus Aran. However, instead of hunting Metroids, this time she sets off to destroy the Ing on the planet of Aether. The Ing come from a dark parallel version of Aether and have already started destroying Galactic Federation ships. Samus must travel between the two versions of the planet to destroy these creatures. However, the Ing aren't the only enemies Samus will have to fight. Her old nemeses, the Space Pirates, also make a return, seeking revenge on her for past defeats. In addition, Samus will have to contend with a new villain, the evil Dark Samus. This twisted version of the heroine has all of her powers but none of her morals.This action-adventure game is set in an open-ended world with gameplay focused on first-person shooting. However, in true Metroid fashion, there is also puzzle solving, platform jumping, and general exploration elements. As you explore, you'll find a variety of weapons and items that will help in your quest. Classic weapons like the Boost Ball and Screw Attack return. The game also features new items like the Dark Beam and the Light Beam. You'll need to use these items to not only destroy your foes but also to progress further on the map.The two parallel dimensions in this world impact one another. Anything that changes in one dimension is often reflected in the other. This title requires both the light and dark dimensions to be explored if you want to progress. While you'll explore similar areas between the two worlds, the dark world significantly changes the game. The dark mist that permeates this universe is damaging to your character. It will require you to find safe zones of light to stay alive. Metroid Prime 2: Echoes is full of secrets that often lead to extra health and ammunition. It will take gamers 17 hours to complete the main story. If you hope to complete all aspects of the game, expect to take around 25 hours to accomplish this feat. The graphics in Metroid Prime 2: Echoes push the console hardware to its limits. One unique aspect of the title is that the screen is shaped like the character's helmet. This creates the illusion that you're wearing her helmet. The helmet also displays all the information about your heroine, such as her energy and missile count.Metroid Prime 2: Echoes offers a multiplayer option. Up to four players can combat one another across six different arenas. Multiplayer is divided into two modes. In Deathmatch, your goal is to destroy your opponents. In Bounty, it's to collect more coins than your opponents.Prime 2 has a rating of T for its use of animated bloodshed and violence. Retro Studios developed Metroid Prime 2: Echoes. The publication Nintendo Power listed the title as one of the best GameCube games available.

  • Echoes: Another chance

    I remember playing this back then and hating it, but when I got the Metroid Prime Trilogy for sale on the Wii U, those doubts faded away. Beautiful looking game and the soundtrack is also my favorite. THEY EVEN REMIXED BRINSTAR. The theme is light and dark and the switch between light & dark worlds can be challenging, unlocking new abilities and weapons, too Being I played the Wii version, the controls on that console are PERFECT. I don't know how it plays on the GameCube yet, but hopefully it is not that much of an issue. Buy the game anyways and add it to your GameCube collection!

  • Great addition to the collection

    The gameplay is very similar to the first metroid prime. You play as Samus. Your abilities are taken away at first but you work to gain them back throughout the game. This leads to increasingly difficult gameplay. Metroid fans and collectors of nintendo stuff will appreciate the experience.

  • Nostalgic.

    I love the Metroid series. Been fan since I was a kid. Love Samus Ridley and the space pirates. My only thing about this game is finding the temple keys. That kinda ruins the exploration but other than that it's a excellent game. Everything arrived brand new not a scratch or anything. Will recommend. 😀👍:-)

  • Great games!

    These games are one of the best games for the Gamecube, they're very atmospheric, and challenging. Before playing them I thought they were just FPS, but from the moment you play them you realize they're not, they're First Person Adventure games, the gameplay is great, the enviroment is incredible and so is the music. All the puzzles and gameplay in general surprised me. If you're looking for some retro games, I totally recomend Metroid Prime 1 & 2. I rated the graphics as "Good" considering they're from 2002 and 2004. The gameplay is excellent, they're really enjoyable and challenging games, one of my favorite series for the Gamecube, I totally recommend them

  • Metroid prime 2

    For any devoted Metroid fan this is a must have game. Its a bit different from the first Metroid prime but still plays just as well. However I would not recommend to start the prime series from this one. Find and play a copy of the first Metroid prime and if you love that then look for this one. If you enjoyed that then you'll like this one too.

  • Great Game Series

    The prime series is worth being played! Period! Revolutionary and fun. For today’s standards may seem a bit dated, but it holds its fun factor.
