1) this looks freakin' awesome.

2) so since there's no nunchuk attached, is it safe to assume that you can't move around in first person?

nope... you're in place while in first-person... there are some good hands-on previews that explain it pretty well. It sounds like it works, so far...

That still concerns me somewhat. I would like at least a little movement, even tanky Metroid Prime or Resident Evil 4 movement, but it seems to be smooth enough, as shown in the video.

RE4 doesn't let you move while aiming either.

Gee, it sure is Ninja Gaiden around here.

The platforming in particular looks very awkward, with its pulled back, angled camera. Isometric view + precise jumping = big no-no.

That sucks. It's nice and sunny here, but there's a 40% chance of Ninja Gaiden for tomorrow's forecast.

Mario RPG was isometric. Better look up the definition of the word there, chief.

And for the record, digital controls have 8 and only 8 directions, all of which are precise in an isometric field.

Not isometric, then. Whatever word you want to use for it, the point remains. Ninja Gaiden, Genji, and Devil May Cry all have similar cameras, where it's pulled back and angled awkwardly. Making matters worse is when the camera switches halfway through a jump (which will probably be the case here, since it appears to be fixed cameras) and you have to reposition the character in midair. I might be wrong, I hope I am. But looking at that trailer, I'm not impressed.

If you had substantial hands on time with the franchise you would see exactly how this latest Metroid game is framing it's modern iteration by blending the 2D and 3D games into what looks like ridiculous awesomeness.

Team Ninja's other efforts with 3rd person games do not correlate to what Other M is going to be - while they are the developer make no mistake that Nintendo has significant input on the quality of the final product.

It's my favorite franchise and while Metroid is not the blockbuster it once was for Nintendo they have a stringent quality control standard on all the Metroid titles - even the Prime Pinball one-off was incredibly well done.

Despite the fact the "S" Stands for shooting/shooter? It has nothing to do with "moving".... an FPM or something for that one...

If there's one thing I love, it's Metroid. If there's another thing I love, it's more Metroid. Can't wait to see how this one turns out.

Yeah, she also didn't have a mole in the other video. So... she somehow got one between being a teenager and an adult?
