Reggie's new nickname: The comeback oversized kid.

I was MY GOD the best you can offer is a mario side scroller. I assumed Iwata was the last with the vitality.
My hatred turned to love when they said "and if you think that's the last Mario game, then you're wrong"
and then the Metroid blew me away. (I'll admit from the first clip in the video, I thought it may have been 2D, but after more clips I was like: "YES" Nintendo definitely showed us their moves.

I need a link to the trailer.
I already saw it, but I need to see it again, over and over. I'm so glad they're making it 3rd person again.

Teran has found you some (slightly blurry) screen caps. No need to thank me.

That announcement alone made listening to Cammie worth it.
No it didn't, but that's more a comment about how horrible she is than the game.

REALLY looking forward to this. Really funny too concidering the convo I had just before the conference.

doesmannerism (11:53:02 PM): the only other thing I would want is a new metroid game
**** (11:53:10 PM): don't count on it
doesmannerism (11:53:14 PM): a 3d game carrying on from fusion would be awesome
**** (11:53:20 PM): Metroid Trilogy is coming
doesmannerism (11:53:25 PM): or hell, even a 2d game, I'd snap that up
**** (11:53:32 PM): that pretty much covers their Metroid for a few years
doesmannerism (11:53:34 PM): already played all 3 :<
**** (11:53:39 PM): yeah
**** (11:53:44 PM): also, it's timing is horrible
**** (11:53:56 PM): The Conduit is coming out this month with so much bigger named, well established stuff
doesmannerism (11:54:06 PM): that does look good
**** (11:54:12 PM): Ghostbusters is next week, then Conduit, then Wolfenstein is coming soon, etc
**** (11:54:16 PM): eh, it looks decent
doesmannerism (11:54:29 PM): it's no metroid though
**** (11:54:41 PM): at no point watching it did I think, I want this! It's FPS revolutionized
doesmannerism (11:54:46 PM): i would really like a metroid game that actually revolves around metroids
**** (11:54:48 PM): it looked pretty choppy, graphically too
**** (11:54:50 PM): yeah
**** (11:54:56 PM): like I said, I wouldn't expect that at all
doesmannerism (11:55:05 PM): believe me, I'm not
doesmannerism (11:55:09 PM): just saying what I want
doesmannerism (11:55:18 PM): :c

I don't like the Varia Suit's new design too much.

Looks great. The clips of Samus fighting Ridley look fantastic.

Also guys if you watched g4, they said Retro studios was well at work on another prject.

I don't know, Ninja Giddens was hard enough to almost make me quit. Since the same company is making this game, hopefully it's going to have a much higher difficult than Prime 3.

I'm excited about this. First person view never appealed to me much, so this is a nice change.

That would be interesting if that was Samus's mother...

And another time M was used was in Marvel Comics's House of M, which was an alternate universe.

Whatever, I'm hyped.

LOL at the token black guy.

I think that 'Other M' probably stand for 'Other Mission' or something, although it kinda sounds bad.

I believe he is called Armstrong Houston, possibly?

Not really much of a Metroid fan, but the gameplay got my attention. I guess I'm a bigger fan of the Prime series than the regular, so I guess it's because of that.

This...
Looks....
Awesome....

I'm going to expect an "I am your father" scene.
Better not, since Samus's parents supposedly died at the hands of Ridley when she was really young.

If they do that, they'll change the current plot.

"Any objections lady?"

That made the video for me. Adam FTW.
Yes. YES.

I love Fusion, so any relation to it = win.

Needless to say, as a die-hard Metroid fan I'm excited for this. I was hoping more for another handheld one...that's completely 2D...but, 3rd person, and (possibly?) 2.5D is pretty bad*** too.

agreed.
I was always hoping for a Fusion prequel Adam=awesome. I've always been curious on how they would elaborate on the Adam story past Fusion and then Bam! Other M is announced.
2010 is too long a wait tho.
Gameplay looks amazing

It looks similar to DMC, I'm not sure what to make of it. I'll just have to wait and see.
