Other M is a “more traditional” Metroid, says Reggie

otherm2

Team Ninja Metroid remake Other M marks a return to the series’s “traditional” values, NoA boss the Reggie “Double-Bomb” Fils-Aime told Gamespot at E3.

“A year ago, someone could have asked me, ‘What’s going on with Metroid?’ When are we going to go back to the more traditional Metroid series versus the path that we went down with Prime? Well, here’s the answer, right, in Other M,” he said.

And don’t panic, Kid Icarus fans. Reinvention’s on the agenda for all of Nintendo’s historical IP.

“Believe me, we’re constantly challenging ourselves on all our key franchises, as to when’s the right time to revitalise it, a how do we do it in a way that’s provocative?” Fils-Aime added.

Tecmo kept Other M so secret Koei didn’t know it existed

otherm1

Nintendo,  Team Ninja, and Tecmo were so secretive regarding the development of Metroid: Other M, that Koei had no idea it existed for some time.

Even when the two companies merged, Tecmo was not allowed to disclose the project per the arrangement with Nintendo.

No word on when the game became common knowledge.

More over on Siliconera.

Metroid: Dread idea is still “within my mind”, says Sakamoto

metroidotherm

Metroid producer Yoshio Sakamoto has confirmed that Other M is not a replacement for Metroid: Dread, as the game is still being kicking around mentally in his head.

IGN had a chance to speak with Sakamoto during the conference, and was asked why Dread popped up on DS lists a while back and disappeared.

“This is quite awhile ago – a few E3s back”. he said. “I can only say right now that this is Other M, it is not Metroid Dread.

“But as a concept the Metroid Dread idea does still exist within my mind so maybe sometime in the future I will be able to bring that to you.”

Good enough.
