I never knew people had so much angst against 5-second cutscenes (20-30 in the case of bosses). >_>
Probably something about speed running and cut scenes taking time....

That only happened to me after I formatted my memory card :\.
Why the flickerbat you only get three when the Wii's internal memory could support probably a hundred times that amount of saves is another story.
That could possibly be the most swearing I have ever seen in a single post. I myself never was that annoyed by unskippable cutscenes unless they are really lame, annoying cutscenes, like the elevator cutscenes(especially in MP1!) and the Echoes portal cutscenes(EXTREMELY ANNOYING!).

hm i have replayed the same file so far but when i copied my original file and played again some parts of it, cutscenes weren't skippable. seems that it is locked to individual files and not like in the gc version.

But bringing up that game mandates a clarification on my part; it isn't the cutscene itself that is bad, but being forced to wait without good reason. FF Anthology doesn't have new unskippable scenes, but a horrifically coded loading routine that makes a SNES game's loading time as bad as FF7's. There is no good reason why I should be staring at a black screen for five seconds every time I enter or leave the subscreen (a total of 10 seconds if I wasn't clear) in a game that "somehow" ran a helluva lot more smoothly on a technologically inferior machine. There's no excusing that, and if you dare try to, I have more evidence against the programmers behind that port that will prove the entire team's incompetence.
And the PS2's fast loading feature? 10 seconds becomes 9. SOOO much better.

But Corruption? No. That is an insult to all gamers everywhere, and a surefire way to make me as mad and out of control as Michael Savage. Retro can forget getting any money from me if this is how they intend to treat the Echoes port as well, which sucks greatly for me because I was really looking forward to it. If there's no good reason to wait, I shouldn't be waiting in the first place. Maybe Retro saw that one rental store commercial that had a hole-in-the-ground renting games like "Let's Wait In Line" and thought "Dear God, that's brilliant!" because I have no better explanation for why they or anyone else would do this.

I do: Nintendo's subversively worrying about gamers' health. The manuals for PS2 games (likely many others) say to take breaks (for PS2, 15 minutes per hour (aw, can't it be between hours? *puppy dog eyes*)), and since whenever all Nintendo-published stuff gives those warnings, but with THIS, with THIS you're FORCED to rest! It's brilliant, brilliant, brilliant, I tell you! Genius, is say!

am i the only one not feeling myself insulted?
you might have some good points here but i think you're going too far.
Corruption wasn't a bad game.
It was a shitty metroid game, but it wasn't a bad game.
So, from what I've read:
-Bomb Jumps are gimped MP3 style, but replaced with the ball jump (a shitty replacement, but one nonetheless)
-Dashes aren't working
-Games are re-made beginning from the initial regional versions
-Secret Worlds still exist (LOL)
-everything normal except boost&spider are still skippable (except that gravity is questionable due to that one artifact)
The tower artifact still works with missiles instead of supers, right?
Have you tried Genius Flaahgra or early Wild?
Also, even if the old early wild trick doesn't work, assuming that secret world is still in play, we can do it easily (get floaty, go down tower, go up tower, grab wild, do whatever else in the ruins).

Is it just me or is it no longer possible to jump off of enemies (namely Stone Toads)?
Metroid Prime, what else?

hmm, you didn't get my post very well.
there's 2 credits sections, one for the original game and one for the wii port. the original game section has the same staff credits seen in the GC version. the wii port section has a different and smaller staff from retro that handled the conversion.
edit: i just beat the game in hard mode 100%. there was no extra reward. this means you can unlock almost everything on the easiest difficulty.

Disguzting homosapienz!...
I read some of it... 
Sorry about that.
I Have learned since I made that post however, that letting go of everything after pressing b to dash doesnt exponentially elongate Samus's jump distance anymore, from another site. It doesnt matter for me though... Im not getting it anyway, because I'm content with my v1 copy lol
