Metroid Prime: Other M Releasing In Summer, Wii Zelda At E3

In a recent Nintendo quarterly presentation CEO Satoru Iwata shared some juicy tidbits on some of the company’s highest profile titles from the New Wii Zelda game to The Last Story.

When mentioning Super Mario Galaxy 2, which was confirmed as releasing in 2010, Iwata also spoke of the new Wii Zelda game.

“Super Mario Galaxy 2, a Mario action title in 3D world, will be launched this year.
And, we will show the new Zelda title for Wii at this year's E3.”

Metroid: Other M, Team Ninja’s Samus-filled Wii title, is said to be coming out this summer. Doesn’t hanging out in air conditioning during those hot summer days playing a new Metroid sound tantalizing? Considering this was a Nintendo of Japan presentation, we can only hope that the game will release in the U.S. this year, also.

 Nintendo’s most enigmatic peripheral yet, the Wii Vitality Sensor, is also going to be shown off with software at E3. No doubt we’ll learn the heart rate of the average games journalist. My guess: not healthy.

The presentation also revealed that recently announced MistWalker RPG, The Last Story, will be coming out this year. Hopefully this one will be shown off at E3 also.

Overall this could be one of Nintendo’s strongest years in terms of triple-A titles. Will this propel the company’s dominating market sales into eternity?
