Nearly three weeks after Metroid Other M hit store shelves in Japan (and a month after its US release) Nintendo released a statement on Monday via the official Japanese Metroid website commenting on a game-breaking glitch that occurs in Sector 3.
Nintendo says that the bug, which renders players unable to advance, occurs if players obtain the Ice Beam and then backtrack after defeating the “two-legged spiked enemy” instead of opening the next door. The company says that proceeding forward after the battle should prevent the glitch from occuring.
