We were promised an engaging storyline taking us further into Samus as a character ground that had never been tread before. The game looked gorgeous, the audio was great, and the gameplay looked…different, but doable. Metroid: Other M was first announced at E3 2009, to much hype and high expectations. The guy actually has a pretty extensive repertoire for Nintendo games. He also supervised each of the Metroid Prime games. It was developed, published, and written by a long-haired Japanese hippy named Yoshio Sakamoto, a man who also directed every Metroid game excluding the original NES game (I incorrectly state that he had in the first video) and Metroid II: Return of Samus. It was the first Japan-made Metroid game since Zero Mission, and was developed by a group calling themselves “Project M”, consisting of members from Nintendo, Team Ninja (Dead or Alive, Ninja Gaiden), and D-Rockets (cutscenes).

Gamer Aria Ehren correctly points out that assuming characters are cisgender and straight without a preponderance of evidence is erasure.Īnd look at replies.
