Itagaki comments on Metroid: Other M
Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 9 Comments
Nintendo made a huge announcement this past week that Team Ninja is working on Metroid: Other M. However, the company is not entirely the same as it was a few years ago. Tomonobu Itagaki, creator of both Dead or Alive and 3D Ninja Gaiden titles, left the company last year. So without a doubt, Team Ninja is missing an integral key to their success. How does Itagaki feel about Other M, though? His thoughts are below.
“Metroid is a fantastic game that I played a lot on the Disk System when I was a child. I also know Mr. Sakamoto, the producer at Nintendo, very well. He fathered Samus Aran. He’s been making games since I was a child, so he’s a veteran I really respect. I think [Yosuke] Hayashi will learn a lot working with him. I hope Team Ninja works hard in making a good game.”

Other M is a “more traditional” Metroid, developers and publishers interested in working with Nintendo
Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 4 Comments
“We wanted to place Samus back in the more traditional lineage of Metroid. We wanted to do it in a way that had a harder edge, and we wanted to go deeper into her story and more into this Metroid mythology. As we looked at our resources to do that, we could have done a fine job on our own but we saw the Team Ninja route as a way of adding a little extra special sauce if you will to make it a really compelling experience.
One of the pieces of feedback that I’ve heard is that as we made that announcement, that there were a lot of development teams and publishers who started to say to themselves, ‘Wow, Nintendo is open to these types of partnerships. Let’s think of other ideas to bring forward,” which I find exciting.” – Reggie Fils-Aime
I really was impressed with the first Metroid: Other M trailer in that the game looks to be providing well-rounded gameplay. The title will feature more of a 2D experience, but there will also be some FPS elements.
