Metroid Prime: Corruption is AWESOME.
I've only played the opening level so far, but man, the game handles REALLY WELL. The controls will take some getting used to, seeing as I'm not really an FPS kind of guy, but so far they work quite well. The sound is INCREDIBLE, too, quite the step up from Echoes, and the designers have sure gotten the feel of the game down pat (pact?) The graphics are alright, but again, the Wii isn't known for ZOMG GRAFIX; this is probably the one area that's comparable to Echoes, but that's not really a bad thing.
Go play it. If you're an FPS person, you'll get the hang of the controls in no time. Even if you're not, the game plays really well and continues the essence of the first two perfectly.
Oh, and because Jen is being shy for some reason: Super Paper Mario is very cute. A slight deviation from the first two - it's more of a side-scroller/adventure|RPG than before, but the feel, again, is preserved quite well. You never really feel like you have to grind to get levels, which is good, as the gameplay is so seamless and engaging you'll forget, at times, that it is an RPG at heart. Play it if you liked the first ones, or if you like the Mario series in general.
