I feel considering the differences between the Wii de Asobou and Trilogy versions of the game this does indeed warrant it's own topic. I just started playing through the game and have already noted that the cutscene skip in Connection Elevator to Deck Beta still works. I will sure update with other findings that are posted.
Things to note:
• You can still BSJ, oddly enough.
• Pressing Z locks view, doesn't act like L.
• Game muchly resembles the GC EU/JAP versions of the game.
• Cutscenes (including those unskippable in the original NTSC version of the game) are skippable after you beat the game.
• Invisible block prevents from getting Ice Beam without Spider without using IBBF.
• They have appeared to have fixed the "Frigate Weirdness glitch" where you use a DBJ to clear the elevator in Cargo Freight Lift to Deck Gamma and do a bunch of weird crap to make the caps blow off and start the escape portion of frigate early.
• PQ dies a bit before its cutscene like in the EU/JAP version.
• The pirate that gets pwnt by the exploding cap during the escape sequence isn't there.
• Door before ridley opens properly, thank god.
• Fast grapple still works too.
• Invisible clipping by the last turret on frigate orpheon.
• Space Jump First dash works.
• Hive mecha rock/platform has changed completely.
• Hive Mecha's scan point is 'risen' like the EU/JAP version of the game.
• Missiles are like the EU/JAP versions of the game, NTSC's only missile is 3, a slightly cooler one is 5 and an even cooler one is 10.
• Incinerator Drone seemed to go very fast, I don't know why.
• Environmental Damage warining is the EU/JAP one.
• Removed the branches in Ruined Fountain that let you cross the room quickly without spacejump.
• "Door cannot be opened with that weapon" glitch with the bloodflower still works.
• Space Jump Early is still doable the GC method, but it's still hard.
• There's some strange lighting on the back of the turbines on samus' ship.
• The weird visor effect that's in place on MP3 is on MP1 too.
• Energy bar, Mini map, Radar, Beam and Visors dim when you cursor over them.
• Flaahgra music loops correctly.
• Artifact of Nature is still early getable.
• Puffers drop ultra energy, like in the EU/JAP version. (VMR? I hope so. That method didn't use dash jumps, or at least not many)
• Energy tank in the second last room to phendrana was lulzy, but the same otherwise.
• IBBF, though modified still!!!! works.
• Can still climb Frigate Crash Site.
• Charge beam bug still works which proves this is actually a heavily modified NTSC 0-00 Metroid Prime.
• Infinite Speed Bug has been fixed.
• They didn't fix the quick climb of Chozo Ice Temple.
• More proof it's NTSC: The big sheegoth's ice damage only freezes you on direct contact, UNLIKE the EU/JAP versions.
• You can still skip the Control Tower pirate fight and nab Elder early!
• Can still do Phendrana's Edge without grapple. Fail.
• Early PB at Phendrana's Edge was fixed - but can be circumvented easily.
• Plasma without grapple/spider = Plausible, but not suggested.
• Elite Pirate Battle can still be skipped easily.
• Elite Pirate before Central Dynamo can still be skipped too, I'm surpised, I got it first try.
• Another thing I noticed, Main PB's maze was much more utilized than normal, though I'm probably just unlucky.
• Omega Research SW is still doable, need a slightly modified DBJ though.
• Modified flamethrowers in Twin Fires like in the EU/JAP versions of the game.
• Can powerbomb the Power Wave Ice and Plasma troopers.
• Can still climb PPC and Ore Processing without spider, I thought this'd be fixed for sure.
• Omega Pirate scan bug still works!
• OP won't let me one round him anymore, the last shot of the round didn't register.
• The phazon jump in MQB, while still eloquent (CALFolio can relax ;D ) does not work in MQB, I found a new method to skip Grapple and spider.
• FGB can still be ghettoed to skip grapple, FGA was not so lucky.
• Ghetto jumps are completely unmolested.
• Research Access has the "UBAR DEATH BARRIER" in the middle of the room which prevents a 22% run from easily being done. Also, the graphics for the electricty by the ends of the rotating... things display incorrectly.
• Phazon Elite WTR glitch and game breaker glitch still work,twice
• Ridley fight is amazingly different.
• Bloom lighting isn't that noticeable, thank god. I would have stabbed a baby but I've run out.
• Ghost artifact lores still exist after defeating ridley.
• Metroid Prime first form is ridiculously easy.
• Credits modified. Obviously.
• PAL ending scene.
• Hard difficulty is called "Hypermode" even though it's MP1.
• Your save gets overwritten with a horrifying loud beep, making it seem like your Wii has just imploded.
• Scans that you've already scanned stay scanned even when you start a new game.
• VMR (Rename to VMW is in order) can still be done very easily.
• Early Newborn has been nixed.
Will post more when I come across it, notice it.

Boost Ball:
