Engadget has published a new interview with Nintendo’s Kensuke Tanabe about Metroid Prime: Federation Force. Tanabe discussed the game’s origins, revealed that a Wii U version was considered, and spoke about how Nintendo tried making a multiplayer Metroid game for the DSi. There’s that and much more in the interview roundup posted after the break!

– Zelda dress offers the appearance of more hearts
– Another outfit is fashioned like a wearable bomb
– One puzzle requires the three Links to form the totem and fire an arrow through a tall flame to light an out-of-reach unlit torch
– Need to make sure the right person goes on top and only the person on the bottom can toss everyone back down
– If you’re on top or in the middle, you are at the whim of the lowest man in the totem
– Margoma boss: get a bomb thrower on top of the totem to throw a bomb at its eye
– Once this is done, you need to switch out the totem to get an archer on top to fire arrows at the beast eyeballs
– Share hearts in the game
– Touch the icon of the other players on the lower screen to see exactly where they are
– Use emoticon-style icons to communicate and cheer on your friends.
– In single-player, you can have two AI Links

– Blast Ball is a part of Metroid Prime: Federation Force
– Teams of 3
– Go into Metroid-style mechs
– Use a first-person perspective and a massive arm-mounted cannon
– Try to knock an enormous, electrified orb into the opposing team’s goal
– Much like first-person soccer
– Keep the ball at bay with your blaster rather than your foot
– If you’re hit with the ball, your suit takes damage
– Taking too much damage means you need to wait to respawn
– Can also take damage from enemy fire
– Circle Pad: movement
– B button: jump
– A button: fire your cannon
– Fire the cannon in rapid bursts with quick presses, or a charged shot if held down
– Hold down “R” to strafe with the Circle Pad or fine-tune your aim with the gyroscope
– L button: lock onto the ball, keeping it front and center in your visor’s Prime-style display.
– While locked on to the ball, your mech’s lateral movement is much slower than you’d expect
– HUD cracks when you take too much damage
– Smooth frame rate
