Team Ninja and Nintendo has announced that Metroid: Other M will be a more “revealing, personal story” than any of the previous Metroid titles. Nintendo calls Metroid: Other M 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 will use the Wii remote NES controller style (sideways) due to the game being a side-scrolling adventure. A first person mode will allow the user to point the remote, like a television control, at the screen to explore and shoot.
Nintendo promised that we will finally hear Samus speak. This will be a huge accomplishment because she barely has ever had anything to say besides screaming.
Metroid: Other M is to be released on June 27 release in North America, only on the Nintendo Wii.
