Metroid: Other M To Show Human Side Of Samus

Metroid co-creator Yoshio Sakamoto has revealed new details on the upcoming new Metroid: Other M for Wii. Sakamoto says Other M will be different than any other Metroid because it will show the human side of Samus.

In an interview with Famitsu, Sakamoto explained why Metroid: Other M will be unique.

"[Metroid: Other M] different from the rest of the series, this time we're strongly depicting the human side of Samus through such things as movies. She's a strong woman, but she also has a fragile side. We want to make a game whose charms can be felt from the story areas and these human touches as well. It's an action game, but it's capable of having a clear emotional side."

Sakamoto went on to say "This Metroid is being developed with the aim of the ideal form of the old Metroid,"

Just how good will this Metroid be? Sakamoto believes the Wii makes a game like Other M possible.

"It's a game that can be realized because of the Wii" he said.
