Own a piece of Nintendo DS history with Metroid Prime Hunters: First Hunt. Originally bundled with the launch of the Nintendo DS in 2004, this exclusive tech demo provided the first glimpse of high-fidelity 3D gaming on a handheld. It is a unique, historical essential for any Metroid completionist or early Nintendo DS collector.
Experience Samus Aran’s transition to the dual-screen era with three distinct gameplay modes: Regulator, a race against time; Survival, an endurance test against waves of enemies; and Morph Ball, a specialized course designed to test your navigation skills. First Hunt was the proving ground for the DS's touch-screen aiming system and features a stunning cinematic trailer for the full game. While it serves as a prologue to the later-released Metroid Prime Hunters, this demo stands alone as a testament to the hardware's capabilities at launch, complete with the iconic Metroid Prime atmosphere and high-octane first-person action.
