The game, which is being co-developed by Nintendo and Tecmo's Team Ninja, will focus on Samus' character. At their Q1 Media Summit, Nintendo said, "When you finish playing this, you're going to feel like you know Samus in a way you've never known her before".
The game is on display at the Media Summit for the press to sample. Nintendo World Report will have impressions of this upcoming major release later this evening.

I for one am looking forward to a more story driven Metroid but hopefully it will still be pretty open ended. Really though with the creator of Super Metroid in charge of the game's development I don't have too many worries.
"When you finish playing this, you're going to feel like you know Samus in a way you've never known her before"I hope it's not in a way that makes her keep calling me even though I told her that one night never should have happened.
I really liked Fusion so I'm eager to see how this game pans out. I know a forefront narrative isn't what Metroid was about, but maybe the developer will make something worthwhile out of the different direction.
Aaron is playing Other M as I type this post.
The way I see it, the Metroid franchise needs to go new directions just like the Zelda franchise needs to now. The "alone and isolated" story has been done extremely well in the first two Metroid Prime games, Super Metroid, and Metroid: Zero Mission, it is time to go a slightly different path.
We're not on the NES anymore, old man
The baby metroid sequence in Super Metroid was one of the most powerful moments in gaming for me emotionally. So speak for yourself, I love when Metroid adds depth to the story.
