Metroid: Other Mcomes out in about 2 weeks. Excited? Scared? Both? Me too.
These two videos have me feeling a little more secure about the game. Between the two of them, I think we get a good idea of whereOther M‘s priorities lie. The video above is an off-scree capture froman event in Australia, where audience members were presented with recap of theMetroid-story so far, narrated by Samus. I’m still hoping for aJapanese voice option, but still, I’m impressed with the level of care the game has for the series’s past.
The video below (aGameTrailers exclusive) shows a variety of the weapons, tools, and enemies from the game. Seeing the return of the wave beam, grappling beam, morph ball bomb puzzles, and speed booster-assisted super jumps has me feeling alright. That’s all stuff that you can only get it aMetroidgame.
Even if my fears are realized and the game doesn’t live up toMetroid‘s illustrious history, it at least got the arsenal right.
