For decades, Samus Aran has been known as one of the first
female protagonists in video games, and one of the most

of a bounty hunter, Samus finally tells her own tale in this
revealing, personal story of her failings, her flaws and

Key Game Features
* Metroid: Other M takes the best elements of 1st-person and
3rd-person gaming to create a seamless blend between gameplay,
storytelling and dynamic cinematography, that feels like a movie
the player can control. Players hold the Wii Remote controller
sideways while navigating and battling in 3rd-person. However, at
any moment, players can switch immediately to Wii Remote pointer
controls to examine and explore the environments in 1st-person
perspective.
* Metroid fans know more about Samus' suits and weapons than they
do about what drives her. That's about to change. The story
begins immediately following the events of Super Metroid, when a
baby Metroid gave its life to protect Samus. With voice acting
and a rich story, players learn the engaging backstory of Samus
as she weaves through an action-packed adventure aboard the
Bottle Ship, a decommissioned space facility. As she hurtles into
this new adventure, Samus will encounter her first mentor and
Commanding Officer of the Galactic Federation, Adam Malkovich.
* The development of Metroid: Other M is an exciting
collaboration between Nintendo's Yoshio Sakamoto and Team Ninja.
Sakamoto was the director of Super Metroid in 1994. Team Ninja is
the renowned action developer of Ninja Gaiden. Metroid: Other M
pairs Sakamoto's expert level design and exploratory focus of the
classic Metroid series with Team Ninja's signature stylish,
no-holds-barred action.
