Available in Japanese, now in English the secrets of Samuss latest adventure are here

Another informative Iwata Asks feature has been translated and some more information about Metroid Other M is now available to the western world (we’ll too lazy over here to translate aren’t we). Nintendo President Satoru Iwata has sat down with Yoshio Sakamoto, the co-creator of the Metroid series, Team Ninja’s Yosuke Hayashi director of Metroid Other M and Ryuzi Kitaura (cinematic director) of D-Rocket. The humour with this one is quite high too with the following exchange proving funny.

Iwata: What was Sakamoto-san like in the studio?

Kitaura: He stood close to me, checking the monitors. When we’d shoot a particularly moving scene, I’d ask him ‘How was that, Sakamoto-san?’, but he’d be completely silent — again.

Iwata: Just like when he saw the storyboards for the first time?

Kitaura: Yes! (laughs) I was really worried, thinking ‘Oh no, he doesn’t like it…’, but then when I peeked at his face, his eyes were full of tears.

Iwata: Oh my…

Kitaura: Well, the cinematic did show Samus in tights. (laughs)

All: (laughter)

Sakamoto: Yeah… But weren’t you crying as well, Kitaura-san?

Kitaura: Well, your tears were infectious, Sakamoto-san! (laughs)

Be sure to check out the full feature here on Nintendo’s website. Metroid Other M is due out in Australia on September 2.
