GamesRadar: Yoshio Sakamoto is known as the father of Metroid. Not that he likes the title. "I feel resistance when people credit me for creating the series," he explained. "Maybe you could say I'm the one who raised Samus. But the Metroids were born by the Queen Metroid!" So began a fascinating peek into the brain of one of Nintendo's oddest minds. Coy on Other M specifics, Sakamoto's thought processes give us a salivating taster of what's to come later this year…
With Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty coming soon, it's time to look back at the developer's greatest triumphs...and one oddball favorite.
With the recent release of Dread, it's time to look back on the history of Metroid and rank the best — and the worst.
Best (for me) would be the first Metroid Prime. It was simply amazing the first time i played it. so deep and challenging while also turning the series completely into something that felt new and fresh.
Worst (for me) is most likely Other M. I can appreciate what they were trying to go for but it just felt flat and played out.
Looking at the rest of the list, I never played Federation Force but i have played the rest. Pinball is still one of my favorites to play now and then.
Former Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime reflects on Metroid: Other M and his initial high hopes for the game.
Yeah we all loved how you took a stoic badass and turned her into a whiny shrew. All those writers should be sacked.
That's the most informative gamesradar article I've read in a while. Very good. :)
Lol Samus won't be dating Sakamoto. Poor Sakamoto :'(
Wow. An article on Other M that actually gets it right and calls it a 3D action game (amazing how the camera angles throw off "gaming journalists"). Good job, GR.
Can't wait. This is my most anticipated game of the year (even over Zelda).
