All we knew about Samus, as a character, up to that point, was that she liked to leave exotic planets by blowing them up.Ĭritical reception of the game was extremely polar after the game came out. We were promised an engaging storyline taking us further into Samus as a character ground that had never been tread before. The game looked gorgeous, the audio was great, and the gameplay looked…different, but doable. Metroid: Other M was first announced at E3 2009, to much hype and high expectations. The guy actually has a pretty extensive repertoire for Nintendo games. He also supervised each of the Metroid Prime games. It was developed, published, and written by a long-haired Japanese hippy named Yoshio Sakamoto, a man who also directed every Metroid game excluding the original NES game (I incorrectly state that he had in the first video) and Metroid II: Return of Samus. It was the first Japan-made Metroid game since Zero Mission, and was developed by a group calling themselves “Project M”, consisting of members from Nintendo, Team Ninja (Dead or Alive, Ninja Gaiden), and D-Rockets (cutscenes). o_o (though "The Movie" does have SOME gameplay in it.That’s right! Metroid: Other M was released for the Nintendo Wii in North America on August 31st, 2010. If you want to see the story without all the filler (read: gameplay and item collecting), download the "movie" version. It is difficult to do it on it anyway since you need a high ledge. _- Fail on Brug Mass and no Overblast on.
On the Epilogue, I do an item cleanup, fight the bonus boss (f'yeah!!), and do that one thing. For the main game, I just rush through it and collect any items that I remember and that are along the path. This playthrough goes for 100% item rate. Follow Metroid as he explores a ship, hop on critters, wrestles with critters, blows them up at close range, and reminiscences. Takes place between Super Metroid and Metroid Fusion.
But, there is DAT! Plays like modern Ninja Gaiden.or something. Team Ninja-developed (and other teams as well) game.
I could probably keep going (and get worse =P). Alternatively: Metroid: Other Gaiden, Metroid: Ninja Gaiden, Metroid Gaiden.
