What are your thoughts on the drastic decline of sales and do you think that Metroid: Other M will be able to scrape together at least 1 million copies worldwide?
This saddens me, as it may result in abandoning the great ideas in Other M. I think Metroid Other M is a SOLID Samus experience, one that deserves more objective examination. I had the same hates starting the game, but playing there’s a point in the story where absolutely everything clicked, and everything made sense–from Samus’ behavior to the controls.
