...Basically the ideal dude role in a Metroid story is that one dude bounty hunter from the Nintendo Power Metroid comic a million years ago.

Oh god I just noticed the "magical girl transforming"-esque way she puts on the suit in that video.
I have some serious reservations about Metroid: Other M. Yeah, the breast loving dude left Team Ninja, but also, pretty much what made good Team Ninja games laft as well. The mixing of the sidescroller and third person elements seems really kinda weird, and I'm starting to fear this will be a very linear game. Fusion was pretty linear, but I can't shake the notion that exploration will be taken out of this entirely.
Also, story scenes, what? I like my story integrated into the actual game, like how Retro Studios was doing it.
I know I have a reputation of being a pessimist about things like this around here, but I see very little to look forward to in this new Metroid venture. Hopefully my fears will be/already have been disproved by actual gameplay footage, but I'll not hold my breath, instead opting to wait to see what Retro Studios is working on next.
Something I find very intriguing, however, is this rumor that Kojima Productions will be handling the next Castlevania.
