Hi, guys! Yesterday I e-mailed nintendo about the Metroid official website that hasn't been updated as it should be (3.30.2010) and they replied to me with this e-mail:

Hello,

Thanks for making us aware of the situation with the Metroid website. Your comments have been forwarded so hopefully the site will be updated soon.

In the meantime, I can confirm that Metroid: Other M is current estimated for release in stores on August 31 of this year. Please note, however, that release dates for future games are estimates and subject to change. Our goal as a publisher and as a developer is to meet a game's projected release date. However, those plans may be altered for a variety of reasons to ensure that the quality of the game meets our exacting specifications. As a product's estimated release date approaches, you may wish to check with your local retailers to see when it may be available in your area.

Our website's Game Guide (http://www.nintendo.com/games/guide) represents an excellent resource to find the accurate release dates for titles. Once there, use the choices in the column on the left to narrow your search based on system, genre, online play, etc.

When you have filtered your search, click on the game's title to see all the available information. When there is new information to share on announced games or other upcoming products, our website is the best official source! Be sure to stay tuned for all the latest news!

Sincerely,

Chelsea MacAran

so hopefully we will have the website updated soon :roll:

So, they weren't aware of the website being not up-to-date? Who handles that stuff?

Here's a question. If a Mario games date was changed, would the site not be updated in seconds?

I believe so... it's like they don't care! o_O At first, i thought that many people had told them already about their page being not up-todate but this is just lame!

I barely go on the Metroid site anyways. Pretty much anything that is on there is on here.

Nintendo not updating their official site on something to do with the Metroid series??? OMG Say it isn't so! It's like, they NEVER do that.... :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:
And not to get too far off topic, but the preorder bonus? Yeah cool I guess, but overall: LAME.

They updated the date on Metroid.com, they just didn't change the date stating when it was last updated. Lazy much? :P

Aside from the release date change, nothing else was added, so the update date is irrelevant.

The only thing they added was the pre-order and sign up for newsletter, everything else is the same.
