At the end of a lackluster presentation by Nintendo, it was revealed that a new Metroid Prime game, 'Metroid: Other M' would be making its way to shelves in 2010 and is being developed by Team Ninja.

Nintendo's presentation wasn't what one would call very exciting, as most of it seemed focused on things we've already heard about. But, for their very last reveal, Nintendo announced that a new Metroid Prime is in the works, entitled, "Metroid: Other M." In a surprising bit of news, the game is being developed by Team Ninja, who brought us the Ninja Gaiden and dead or Alive series.



Apparently the game will "delve further into Samus's story" and will explore the Metroid universe even more. From the trailer that was shown, it looks like the game will combine both classic Metroid gameplay with some 3rd person action, as well as some pretty hardcore take-downs. With Team Ninja on the job, this could really shape up to have some intense action pieces.

Metroid: Other M is expected to arrive sometime in 2010.
