Looking good so far. I’m not sure what Famitsu’s history is with reviewing 2D Metroid games, but I know that in general the Japanese audience has never embraced the titles, so without reading their review I’m going to make a bit of deduction that that might have something to do with it.
I can’t wait to see all of our reviews after we have played the game. Here’s to a better post-launch legacy than Other:M.
