Sometimes, Nintendo hands the reins of a beloved series to another developer and they get something great (Luigi’s Mansion to Next Level Games). Other times…they get something like Other M, the Team Ninja-developed Metroid series entry for the Wii that just. Doesn’t. Feel. Right. Maybe it’s the voice acting. Maybe it’s the writing. Maybe it’s the gameplay. Metroid series podcast Omega Metroid dives into the game on this episode, the first of TWO revisiting the game 10-plus years on—the good, the bad, and the ugly of it. The episode embedded below focuses on the story; the next episode will tackle the gameplay side of things.
