Samus is Back!
The above clip shows us game play from the all need Metroid game for the Wii, Metroid: Other M
This is a game that has been on many Metroid fans minds ever since it was announced and I am happy to say that I like what I see so far. So far as the game play shows, it makes me feel like I am playing Super Metroid for the SNES, while also reminding me in some parts of Metroid Prime for the Cube and Wii. It seems to be trying to give you a bit of that old 2D side-scroller feel and I would be lying if I said I didn't like what they have done in that regard.
Now, as we all know (if you have been reading up on it anyways) Metroid: Other M is supposed to be the true sequel to Super Metroid or Metroid 3 as it was also known. With the events of the game starting off RIGHT at the end of Super Metroid, as in you get a Cinematic Cut scene of Samus killing Mother Brain to start your next Metroid experience with, how awesome is that? This title will in theory link Super Metroid and Metroid Fusion, so hopefully many plot points that were brought up in the Metroid Fusion game will be addressed.
Well, I all hope you enjoy this video as much as I did, and I can tell you that this is going to be the game that gets a Wii in my home. lol
