Metroid Prime Hunters multiplayer details emerge from Nintendo Power Magazine

It has been revealed that the multiplayer modes for LAN(most of them being available for Nintendo Wi-Fi matchups) will be;

Battle: Select Time or Deathlimit. Classic Deathmatch-Mode.

Survival: Like Battle but with limited lives.

Bounty: Find the Octolith and bring it to your base to get points. The player with the most points wins.

Defender: Defend a marked spot on the map. Like King of the Hill.

Prime Hunter: One player is the Prime Hunter - if someone kills him, he becomes the Prime Hunter. The one who was Prime Hunter for the longest time wins.

Capture: Players team up to steal the enemy’s Octolith and bring it to their base.

Nodes: Take control over several beacons. The player with the most nodes wins.

All of these will have a maximum of 4 players and will be available to play using DS download play for those without the game (they must play as samus like MKDS where you must play as Shyguy if you dont have the game). BOTs will also be available for LAN matchups or if you have no friends.
