Fans of the Metroid series should be glad to hear that the series’ latest entry is set for release in the Land of the Rising Sun on September 2 2010.
Metroid Other M is a collaboration between Nintendo and famed Ninja Gaiden developer Team Ninja for Nintendo’s own Wii. The game tells the back-story of Samus Aran, the protagonist of the series, in greater detail, and introduces several new characters and a third person action-adventure gameplay style, mixed with 2D platforming and first-person shooter sequences.
Hopefully this means that the Western release isn’t too far off. I’m looking forward to this quite a bit. Keep checking back for more news on Other M.
