No Online Play for Metroid on DS

On the brighter side, the tactile FPS will have Wi-Fi play.

Speaking to gaming site 1up, Metroid Prime: Hunters producer Kensuke Tanabe has confirmed that there will be no online gameplay for the FPS.

"Really, we could have made this game online," said Tanabe. "But Nintendo's vision of online play is different from that of other companies. We wanted it to be free, easy, and easy to access for everybody. To set up this kind of infrastructure that we needed, and to meet the launch date we have for this game, the two just didn't match."

On the flip side, the game will have Wi-Fi gameplay, and is hitting retailers next month.
