Team Ninja and Nintendo announced a partnership today on a mature-themed Metroid that will explore both Samus Aran and the Metroid universe in greater detail than ever before. The trailer looked intense and action-packed, with Samus taking on multiple enemies at a time and just ripping through them with speed and ferocity. That’s what I like to see out of a Metroid title.

There were a combination of viewpoints, with some side-scrolling, some third-person (especially during fights with larger enemies) and a few from a first-person perspective. More details will be published as we get them, so be sure to check back for updates.
