Metroid: Other M impressions are filtering in from all over the webernet. Here are a couple good ones we've located:

Jeremy Parish from 1Up reported on new content in the demo. He noted that the textures seem to have improved since the last build. We have an earlier reported clip of him playing the game.

Nintendo World Report has impressions, including a video that go into depth on the control scheme. Jonathan Metts wasn't pleased with the D-pad, but seemed to enjoy the other controls.

And here's an interesting pre-E3 blurb from Reggie Fils-Aime, who hopes the game will sell more than 1.5m units.

We will keep you posted with anything new we find!

UPDATE 1: Nintendo's Official E3 Page and Metroid.com (4:00 PM EST)

In case you haven't checked it out yet, Nintendo has an official E3 page with a section devoted to Metroid: Other M. The site contains streaming video from all of Nintendo's new games, as well as a special section with Iwata Asks interviews, including ones with Metroid Prime director Kensuke Tanabe on Retro Studios' work with Donkey Kong Country Returns and Masahiro Sakurai, director of Kid Icarus: Uprising. It's good to finally see a new game in Metroid's sister series from the man who brought us Smash Bros. as well as finally hear what the Metroid Prime guys have been up to for the past couple years.

Also: Nintendo's official Metroid page finally has the correct release date!

UPDATE 2: Gameplay Footage (6/17/10 - 10:00 AM EST)

Digital Chumps has two video walkthroughs of the intro and gameplay from the first section. The video is blurry, but it's a close-up of the screen. Thanks to Plas Durock from the forums.

Until next time...
