Not impossible

Guys, we should keep bitching about Other M because every time someone bitches about a sequel all Nintendo do is remake the generally-accepted best first party game in the series.

Super Metroid DS here we come!
One shall stand, one shall ball.
I'd be down for a remake of Super that made it a good game, sure.

No, you don't. The meaning is clearly shown in the game's ending. Were you not paying attention to the story at all?


Please, by all means enlighten us.  We have all seen the game and it's ending multiple times and are not clear on exactly what the whole 'Other M' idea is all about.  We're not stupid or crazy, so I'm anxious to hear what it so obviously means to you.

The "Other M" is Melissa, or MB.
Super Secret Area - Dead Ahead!
At which point did it say that?  Both options are plausible, and easy conclusions to reach from the M, but did it actually say that in-game?

Makes sense, but it's not very clear as it is just one of several possibilities.  They definitely were not clear about anything.

sounds like it's supposed to be ambiguous. i love that kind of stuff.

It wouldn't make much sense to say it ingame, since to the characters in the game, there's no significance to the phrase "Other M".

Maybe they should have just gone with 'Other'? Razz

Indeed, but that brings us back to my original point in that if it's not mentioned, then we don't actually know at all, as it could mean anything, yet you stated:

So now I'm sitting here thinking on what would have been a better title for the game. 

Metroid: Sacrifice

Metroid: Conspiracy

Metroid: Retribution

Metroid: Bad Ideas
Super Secret Area - Dead Ahead!
Metroid: Memories?
Metroid: Rebirth?

I dunno, the stupid ones were easier. Wink
Now that we've all played it and know the story (kinda) then we should be able to come up with a good name, or certainly something better than 'Other M' for the love of god.

Hm... You're right, that may not have been the best way of putting it. However, it's certainly a relevant meaning for the name.
I like turtles.

Metroid: Retribution

This wouldn't have been a horrible title.  Sounds a little cheesy, but it would make sense and would fit with the cheesy finishing moves.

It's an anagram of "Mother".
Could be that Other M stands for multiple things, not a singular object/idea. Mother and Memories seem like the two most obvious, and right now I can't think of anything else off the top of my head.

But yeah, there's no definitive answer from what I saw.
Other M is an anagram of Mother. The abbreviated version of the title is MOM. Obviously, it is about MB.
