Metroid: Other M

Product Description

Metroid Franchise’s Heroine Gets Personal. For decades, Samus Aran has been known as one of the first female protagonists in video games and one of the most enigmatic. Having traded her haunted past for the solitary life of a bounty hunter, Samus finally tells her own tale in this revealing, personal story of her failings, her flaws and ultimately her motivation. Metroid: Other M is an unprecedented collaboration that blends the slick, action-packed production of the world-renowned Team Ninja development team with the game design talents of the creators of the original Metroid. Metroid: Other M is a dramatic new direction for a legendary franchise and a bold new blend between cinematics, storytelling and the best in interactive entertainment.


  • Metroid - Other M takes the best elements of 1st-person and 3rd-person gaming to create a seamless blend between game play, story-telling and dynamic cinematography, that feels like a movie you can control; you can hold the Wii Remote controller sideways while navigating and battling in 3rd-person; however, at any moment, you can switch immediately to Wii Remote pointer controls to examine and explore the environments in 1st-person perspective
  • Metroid fans know more about Samus' suits and weapons than they do about what drives her; that's about to change, the story begins immediately following the events of Super Metroid, when a baby Metroid gave its life to protect Samus, with voice acting and a rich story, you will learn the engaging back-story of Samus as she weaves through an action-packed adventure aboard the Bottle Ship, a decommissioned space facility; as she hurtles into this new adventure, Samus will encounter her first men
  • The development of Metroid - Other M is an exciting collaboration between Nintendo's Yoshio Sakamoto and Team Ninja; Sakamoto was the director of Super Metroid in 1994; Team Ninja is the renowned action developer of Ninja Gaiden. Metroid - Other M pairs Sakamoto's expert level design and exploratory focus of the classic Metroid series with Team Ninja's signature stylish, no-holds-barred action

2.0 out of 5 stars Metroid: Other Movie - A Lifetime Channel Original, September 16, 2010

This review is from: Metroid: Other M (Video Game)
*Introduction*
The Metroid series is one of Nintendo's finest, and the new entry, Metroid: Other M, is finally here. After the excellent first person Metroid Prime series by Retro was concluded, it was announced that Metroid was returning to both third person view and Japanese development. Many fans were made uneasy when it was announced that Team Ninja would be heavily involved in the project, but the fact that it was being headed by Yoshio Sakamoto, who has been heavily involved with Metroid from the beginning, gave hope that the game would live up to its classic name. Sakamoto promised that this game would flesh out Samus's character as the most story heavy Metroid yet, but has this decision ultimately backfired?

*Story*
The story is the most controversial aspect of this game. Rather than opt for the minimalist approach of the other titles in the series, Metroid: Other M inserts a full blown Final Fantasy XIII style cinematic experience. The story begins... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Keeping Metroid Fresh, September 1, 2010

Objective Part of review:

A. Controls

This game is controlled by holding the Wii mote sideways, which is the same as New Super Mario Bros. Using the D-Pad you control Samus' movement in a 3D space. Although ideally a control stick would have worked more smoothly, surprisingly movement is not rough or game breaking. The game uses an auto lock on feature: If Samus is facing an enemy, then she will automatically target that enemy when firing. However, if the enemy is behind you, and Smaus is looking the other way, the only thing you will be shooting is the wall. 3rd person combat is roughly worked around a dodge/shoot mechanic. A player taps the control pad before an enemy attacks, Samus dodges, which leaves the player in a prime opportunity to follow up with a beam attack (dodging is very forgiving). Samus' also has the ability to use melee attacks. With a charge beam, Samus can finish off enemies by either jumping on them, or quickly approaching them when they... Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely terrible., June 15, 2011
Fun:1.0 out of 5 stars

This review is from: Metroid: Other M (Video Game)
I'm a lover of all things Metroid and I have to say, for the first time, this Metroid doesn't even come close to the mark. The controls are reduced to point wii-mote, grip wii-mote, rise, repeat, which doesn't make for terribly fun game play. The gating is all based on when your male old boss (who technically has no power over our heroine as she's a paid bounty hunter) tells you you can move on to the next area, instead of the usual gating based on abilities. To make matters worse, the voice overs (which is the first time samus has had a voice) are quite possibly the worst work in the industry.

Team Ninja managed to absolutely slaughter this beloved franchise by taking the worlds only real Heroine and reducing her to a side character's lap-dog. Combine this with the poor controls, level design, and encounter design, this game is just plain bad.

Sorry, Samus, hopefully Nintendo will realize the mistake they made with Team Ninja and move you back to Retro... Read more
