Other M is a “more traditional” Metroid, developers and publishers interested in working with Nintendo

“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.
