A few Metroid Prime 3 details slip

Samus

Finally, Nintendo information that we don't have to preface with "rumor." Speaking to the official Metroid web site, Retro Studios has shed some light on the upcoming Revolution title, Metroid Prime 3, which is planned as the last game in the trilogy. Expect updated visuals and more Phazon, the odd material seen in previous installments. Two things stick out more than others: first is that Retro does not plan "on using a third-person camera for the times when Samus is in the suit" - but when would she not be in the suit? I can't recall her ever taking the suit off, except for super-secret "see Samus in a bikini" endings. The second note, although vague, is that Metroid Prime 3 will take advantage of the new features of the Revolution controller.

What could that mean? Could a gyroscope control where Samus looks? Let the speculation...well...continue.
