The galaxy is not at peace. Following the destruction of Phazon and the corrupted world, Phaaze, the Space Pirate threat remains. As a recruit in the Federation Force, a best-of-the-best unit created by the Galactic Federation, it’s your duty to stamp out the Space Pirate menace. Suit up in specialised battle armour, known as a Mech, and head out to the desolate Bermuda system to investigate reports of suspicious activity, using your handy blaster to eliminate any enemies that get in your way!
As a member of the Federation Force, you’re considered the cream of the crop within the Galactic Federation. You’re the first line of assault against the Space Pirates, and only the most dangerous, important tasks fall to you and your squad mates.
Travel to the far reaches of space and thwart the Space Pirates’ plan in Campaign mode. Embark on co-operative missions for up to four players via Local Play or online multiplayer*, working together to fulfil objectives and fend off foes. Or, if you’re feeling particularly daring, head out on your own with optional AI Combat Drones as your only backup.
FAQ:
I heard the difficulty doesn't scale in the campaign if you're not playing with 4 people?
Yes and no. The more human players there are, the more enemies are thrown at you but their HP/DMG does not change. If you are playing solo or with one other player, you can add A.I. drones to your team as support units.
How does this control?Exactly the same controls as Metroid Prime on GameCube. Only on your 3DS. New 3DS C-stick for the camera is supported. Gyro aim is also supported and it lets you do the locked-on-free-aim found in the Wii editions of the Prime games.
Can you solo the entire campaign?Yes.
The OP is pretty sparse, should I read it anyway?Yes.

Added a count-down timer to the team selection screen in the Online Play mode of Blast Ball.
During matches in the Online Play mode of Blast Ball, players will be disconnected if they fail to make any inputs for a set amount of time.
Other adjustments have been made to make for a more pleasant gaming experience.

Because moon is (apparently) too lazy to do one (quote to reveal):
But of course I'm an american and sleep all day, so I couldn't have possibly made it.
