Metroid Prime 3 is a first-person adventure developed by Retro Studios for the Wii. It takes place after the events in Metroid Prime 2: Echoes. The first glimpse of the game was shown at Nintendo's press conference during E3 2005 where a next-gen model of Samus Aran was briefly shown as well as shots of her ship and some weird tentacle objects displayed running on the Nintendo GameCube. The game deals with the insidious substance known as Phazon taking over and corrupting the galaxy as well as Samus Aran herself. It is, of course, up to Samus to stop this from happening. This game gives a satisfying close to the Prime trilogy, where Phazon is defeated once and for all. Three other bounty hunters also join her: Ghor, Rundas, and Gandrayda.
