New Metroid Other M Updates


MT Zehvor

308 views

Lots of new Other M updates. First off, it has an official release date: June 27(also my B-Day).

 

The "Remember me" dude has a name. "Anthony Higgins" I believe, not 100% sure of the first name cause they took it off of the website for some reason. I'm a little dissapointed with that name. I thought that he would have some epic last name, like Malcovich...but Higgins? (no offense to anyone named that, it just doesn't seem very Metroid-ish to me)

 

The control scheme (for 3rd person perspective) is suprisingly going to strongly resemble Super Metroid and the SNES. You turn the Wii-mote sideways to manuever, using the D-pad to move, 1 and 2 to jump and fire, and probably + and - to do things like select missiles and lay power bombs. You can also point the Wii Mote at the screen, and all of a sudden, you're in 1st person view, like the Prime series. Awesome. Major downside though is that you can't move around while in 1st person view. I sense that this is going to be a huge annoyance in boss fights and intense battles having to switch between 3rd and 1st person views...

 

That's all the info for now. I'll update this as more is released.

Wow, I can't believe all these awesome games are going to be coming out so soon. It seems like just yesterday that Galaxy 2 and Other M and the like were announced, and now there are already some official release dates.

 

...and that reminds me: I need to finish Metroid Prime. And Prime 2. And Prime 3. ><

 

Excess of schoolwork makes me maaad.
