The New Play Control! version of Metroid prime has been released in Japan.

I have been watching videos of it on the "Video Site that is no to be named".

New Things

• New menu style. Similar to Metroid Prime 3.
• New control scheme (duh).
• Metroid Prime 3's medal system.
• Voice acting (kinda). At the beginning of the game, when you see Frigate Orpheon, there is some speech-thing, and when you start the game from a save room, and it says on-screen where you are, a voice actually says where you are. I suspect it to be Jay Ward, the guy who did the announcer-thing for those two Metroid songs in SSBB.
• When your ship sends you objective data, the "Beacon recieved" from Metroid Prime 3 can be heard.
• I think there was something else...
