Game Description

Go behind the mask of a video game legend in this epic continuation of the Metroid saga. Metroid: Other M takes the storied franchise in a dynamic new direction, blending first- and third-person play with cinematic presentation.

Hold the Wii Remote sideways during third-person play, then switch at any moment to pointer controls and a first-person perspective.
