Metroid to feature in Nintendo Land

Tuesday, June 5th, 2012

The Nintendo E3 conference has just aired, showcasing a brand new game to launch with the Nintendo Wii U system called Nintendo Land. It is a piece of software featuring 12 different mini games in a theme park environment. Metroid will be featured in the game in some form, as the trailer showed Samus’s helmet and Ridley in the theme park itself.

Nintendo Land will feature a variety of different franchises including Zelda, Donkey Kong, Luigi’s Mansion and more. It will launch with the Wii U system this year.

Although Metroid fans may have been expecting more from E3, there is still hope! Coverage from Nintendo will be streamed over the next few days, including a special 3DS conference tomorrow at 6PM Pacific.
