I don't get why they felt needed FPS segments, but other than that looks like I imagined Metroid would all those years ago playing Super Metroid.

Oh please please please be the sequel to Metroid: Fusion. That's a storyline that needs to continue.

actualy I dont think thoes are segments, from what I understand you point the wiimote at the screen to go fps for firing missles and such, so its more of a seemless transition from side scroller to fps shooter whenever you want

This looks freaking awesome.

Dammit. Am I going to have to buy a Wii now? I was trying to wait until they dropped to $99. I might not be able to anymore.

Oh, well if they are optional then count me in.

Gameplay looks solid.

What I don't like is they're turning it into yet another sweeping Japanese drama, with cheesy cutscenes, terrible dialogue, and no doubt some silly plot that'll have most people scratching their heads going 'huh?' while the 'hardcore' disassemble it in some vague attempt to have the story make sense and then no doubt end up praising it as some glorious epic drama that you can only understand through hours of reading wiki articles and hundreds of fan-written speculation posts.

Plus it seems like they take every opportunity possible now to sexualize the character and have her parade around in that 'zero suit' mode or whatever.

But then I guess I'm just a grump who doesn't like change. Don't even get me started in the Castlevania 'reboot'! Bah Humbug!

I agree with that fear, its always a crap shot if something from japan will have a good plot or not

I'm just annoyed that they felt they had to use the Wiimote to aim. I find it extremely sluggish and difficult for that sort of thing.

Well they seem to be taking a lot of chances, which I respect. The gameplay looks more varied than any other game I'm aware of, though I'm by no means a gaming historian.

I am extremely intrigued by this game. I might have to buy it, despite technically not owning the Wii I would play it on. Or it might actually drive me to buying my own Wii. its just such a great move towards the other older Metroid games, notably Super Metroid and Fusion.

...Metroid: Other Mother? I cannot believe how excited I am for this. SMG 2 will be pretty sweet, but a month after that comes this amazing eyegasm. Can't wait.

I think it happens just after the events of super metroid just before fusion.... altho maybe it will include some from after it.... the joy of not knowing

2. remember the days where you had to EARN seeing samus out of a suit? what the hell? i worked damn hard for a 16-bit bikini and now they give it away.

That, and those cut scenes are flashbacks.

Or it's a retelling of the events that happened before Metroid 1, AKA, the destruction of K-2L and her being adopted by the Chozo. Infusing her with with Chozo DNA. In the previous trailer Adam was also seen, as noted by the "Any objections, Lady?"

And we all saw Motherbrain.
Speculation aside, all I can say is... DO WANT!

That's...awesome, actually.

And is it just me, or is that game pretty damn pretty? I mean really, it looks really good, and that for a Wii game.
