Metroid: Other M Cinematic Trailer

Only yesterday, we brought you news screens for Nintendo's latest outing for their Metroid franchise and now, here's a very stylish trailer from the games intro

Metroid: Other M, the incredible new Metroid game developed for Wii through a collaboration by Nintendo and the world-renowned Team Ninja, launches June 27. The game looks at the classic franchise from a new perspective: While much of the game is reminiscent of 2-D side-scrollers, players can switch the perspective into 3-D at any time as they explore the twisting passages of a derelict space station and delve deep into a cinematic, never-before-told story of bounty hunter Samus Aran's past. This new approach uses a new control scheme in which players use the Wii Remote controller held sideways to battle enemies and navigate the expansive, gorgeous environments in classic Metroid fashion, then aim at the screen with the Wii Remote pointer to blast foes in first-person and hunt the world for clues and hidden passages.

  Interestingly, they didn't show any gameplay video yet, it's both good and bad. It could be that they are keeping it a secret, or in-game video doesn't look anywhere close to this promo.

  ^ This is an in-game cutscene, or uses parts of the in-game cutscenes. I'm not sure why they aren't showing the gameplay as there are plenty of hands-on articles that talk about it. But perhaps its to provide a level of mystery to the game to keep everything secret and low key. People will know the very basics about the game but won't know how it'll play for them.
