Metroid's 30th anniversary is Saturday, the Japanese release date being August 6th 1986 and later hitting Europe and NA in 1987. What are you doing to celebrate, Holla Forums? Gonna play your favorite entry in the series? Revisiting the original? What's your favorite and why? I'm playing through the entire series myself, as well as waiting for AM2R to drop. metroid2remake.blogspot.com/
As it is one of my favorite franchises, and likewise having some of my favorite music, got a gift for you as well. Some cover/remix albums that I think are bretty gud. Theophany's Crystal Flash and all the recordings of Metroid Metal including both the old and new ones. MP3 only though, but I hope you enjoy them.
I remember playing through fusion at least a dozen times as a kid since it was the only gba game I had back then. I'll probably play any of them except for that one.
Robert Foster
Metroid looks pretty good for 30.
Jaxson Barnes
Remember this, Holla Forums?
Kayden Lewis
Well there's Harmony of a Hunter
oh man, that takes me back to my old MP3 player with 128 MB.
John Martin
might play super again
Oliver James
get out, flynt
I'll be playing AM2R before they take it down with a C&D order.
Nathan Powell
REMEMBER LAST TIME?
I'll probably marathon all of the 2D ones after my last class on Friday. Might skip 1; I've played it too many times for me to still have fun with it
Austin Robinson
I'm hoping AM2R will finally drop without a C&D so I can play through it. Otherwise, I'll probably try to pick up 3 again and finish it. It's the only one I haven't beaten besides Hunters. My favorite is the original Prime, but I've enjoyed every entry in the series to some extent, 3D or 2D. Other M doesn't deserve to be counted.
Joshua Williams
I've never heard this before, so thanks fam. It's pretty good. Wouldn't really say it's orchestral though.
Nintendo doesn't care if it's not Mario, Zelda, or Pokemon. Last year was F-Zero's 25th.
Camden Morales
I played it and killed like 30 Metroids but I can't remember shit and don't want to do all it over again, I'll probably just play some SM hacks
Adam Lewis

Connor Flores
totally forgot about this, also the guy making it is from my country which is weird
Aiden Fisher
...
Bentley Morris
...
Alexander Anderson
Thanks for the music OP. Fuck Nintendo for the bullshit they've done to this franchise just because Miyamoto has to stroke his dick and remind us about Zelda all the time.
Jaxson Parker
You know what this thread needs?
TUBES
Grayson Foster
Metroid Prime Trilogy.
Eli Thompson

Joshua Rogers

Christian Lopez
What kind of sex would you have with samus? Is she the hardcore type of girl or will she treat you like a shota and fuck you gently?
Nathaniel Cox
...
William Morgan
He's dead to me, now. Every bad thing Nintendo does now seems to point to him as the blame. Or President What's-His-Name, since he's a banker.
Hudson Anderson
Sweet, tender lovemaking.
Zachary Campbell
You mean Reg Fish Amy?
Wyatt Jones
no problem famalam.
Why not treating you like a shota but doing it hardcore?
Ryder Cook
...
Lincoln Hughes
No, the other guy. I don't know what Reggie's deal is, but he needs to get his shit together. I'm talking about Kimishima, or whatever his name is, the guy that replaced Iwata.
Landon Clark
Ahaaha, is this the fag that worked with Johnny Boy Flynt to claim that Samus was a tranny like him? He had a nervous breakdown on twitter when his retarded "revelation" was debunked by about eighteen different official sources.
Thomas Young
I-it's not like that…
Gabriel Ross
Oh yeah,the one that's ABSOLUTELY FUCKING NUTS. >it gets hired by nintendo treehouse and it ruins the translation for the next metroid game The fact that this COULD happen alone is horrible.
Ayden Gomez
...
Zachary Sanchez
They need to axe the treehouse
Matthew Roberts
Was that a pun?
Carter Davis
Samus can diffuse my missile any day.
Samuel Robinson
Yes
Chase Allen
That's a nice tube
Hunter Sullivan
Ha. That's a funny one.
Elijah Flores
...
Ryan Brooks
should have been the golden chozo because all you get on metroid's birthday is pain
Charles Carter
I dunno, I think if Treehouse fucks up the next few games then NCL will make it burn faster than Germans in Germany.
Luke Davis
Why can't they just make an actual metroid game? I don't care if it's prime or super styled, I just want an actual game. Not the shitty ball pusher that federation force is shaping up to be.
Chase Jenkins
It's for the best. For the past 14 years the series has been relegated to western-developed trash. Please let them forget about it. Forever.
Xavier Garcia
...
Austin Peterson
I bet you like Other M too.
Mason Gomez
...
Luke Gray
To this day, these stupid comics still make me smile.
D-don't even think about that shit, man. you're making me sad and nervous.
jej
Jace Stewart
No, I can't stand Other M, and it's yet another reason why anyone who claims to love the series shouldn't want modern Nintendo to touch it.
It's like you just don't understand that they're no longer capable of doing those things you loved anymore, so you just want to see Metroid disgraced. Enjoy your Federation Force, because it's exactly what you're asking for at this point, even if you're too retarded to realize it.
Grayson Hernandez
Not celebrating today, but tomorrow i'll replay Metroid Prime 1 and 2 on my CG, then Super Metroid and Metroid Zero Mission on an emulator
Asher Sanders
I'm going to finally finish Metroid II And Super Metroid And Zero Mission I can't believe why I still have these games in my backlog, but at least I finished the oryginal It was fun to actualy draw maps by myself and figure out where everything is
Zachary Baker
Just imagine, for a second, a Vanillaware Metroid…
Asher Hall
what in the goddamn…
Christopher King
maybe ill finally finish playing through metroid prime.
I want to have sex with Samus.
Ryder Torres
I want to have sex with Ridley
Adrian Bell
super metroid is the best metroid game without a doubt
Hunter Hall
I want to fuck Erin.
Cooper Diaz
I recommend playing SM and ZM in as few sittings as possible. For my first playthrough of SM, picking it up midway through the game after letting it sit for weeks was a really bad idea. 1 and 2 are a little better in this regard, especially when you make your own maps
Eli Rodriguez
How about Axiom Verge? How many of you played it?
I think it's pretty neat. Definetly above the sea of mediocrityof most indie games.
Plus, it gives a not to metroid my having JUSTIN BAILEY as a secret code, that dresses your character in a bikini, like on the original metroid.
Nicholas Russell
I've played it, had a lot of fun. Especially while listening to Opie & Anthony recordings about Canada. Setting was nice, controls were good, music was pretty dank. Plenty of secrets. Got stuck a couple of times, but nothing major, only contacted a walkthrough when I got stuck for a solid week (forgot about that one place where I could now phase through the wall).
Good stuff. Made with love and passion.
Angel Roberts
Why is it so hard to make a likeable female character like samus? Literally she doesn't need to talk much and her she's a big as fuck badass? They could have done the same with maybe dead space 1&2 but overall why isn't there more characters like samus? Last one I that reminds me of samus is Master Chief.
Jaxon Rogers
Because muh detailed story and focus testing.
Lincoln Davis
She's just really lightly written; the little character we get stands out more significantly than other female characters in games. A fully written and voiced Samus would probably destroy the illusion of a good character.
Also games don't need to be well-written to be good. Usually main or side characters have very shallow arcs, or none at all. The occasional exception being games like MGS that thrive off the story (sometimes to its detriment)
Never really looked into the spinoff titles. Was that pinball game any good?
Landon Garcia
My two cents on it:
It's how the player feels that makes your impression of the character. If you feel like a badass, you'll relate to the character, regardless of gender/species/wathever. Metroidvanias (when done well, of course) excel at this when they make the player do some exploring, and face previously unbeatable chalenges with a new weapon/ability that you fought so hard for. You feel good about yourself, you feel like you accomplished something, and that you are better than before.
Oliver Moore
Haven't played it, I kind of forgot it even existed And you can download demo of Blastball already but I'm still too mad to even give it a chance
Easton Barnes
...
Hudson Bailey
What said, more story than focus testing IMO.
Think about the amount of dialogue Samus has in all the games combined, ignoring THEBABY. I'd bet that it would come out to a few pages at most. Samus' character comes out through the game.
It is overwhelmingly told in the gameplay, with minor log entries or short conversations. The later titles introduced tiny bits of cutscenes and talking, but nothing compared to a modern game. Could you imagine a current "writer" in videogames limiting themselves to that? They'd throw a hissy fit. These fucking hacks have to write a movie script that only David Cage would approve of, then slap together a generic title around it because it has to be a game.
What do Other M, Remember Me, and The Order have in common? A shitty Hollywood dropout story with crappy 3rd person gameplay tacked onto it. Too bad Ready At Dawn didn't make it a female lead, or they could've cried sexism like the other two did. I know people hate Pre-Rec for good reasons, but I did like Rich's comment about Uncharted 4. When it's a 3rd person game centered around a story, you can tell the devs didn't give a shit about the game and just wanted to make a movie instead. That's the new litmus test for shitty story games in AAA. That's also why God of War 4 will be utter horseshit.
Ultimately, you're only going to find more Samus' in lower budget titles that can't afford to make shitty Mo-cap movie games. Bigger studios cannot restrain themselves to keep the characters from talking every five seconds, lest the writers break out into tears.
Nathaniel Cooper
Why is her neck so long?
Jace Nguyen
I advise you do that with the other game
And about FF, it's shitty of nintendo to be dry about the series for so long, then come out with a shitty spinoff. That said, it's not the worst they can do, and a terrible mainline game is worse for the series than a few forgettable spinoffs. wait, wario is giving me a concerned look right now
Nolan Gray
Oh please, it's only been a single gen without a Wario Land game, the Wii-U died early, and the 3DS still has quite a while before the end of its life.
Cooper Wright
Up until the NX, anyways, if that bit about the NX being a console/handheld all-in-one is true.
Brandon Ortiz
Cause she is a cartoon.
James Phillips
I really doubt that Nintendo will want to kill their own monopoly of hand held consoles.
Nicholas Jones
3DS games aren't going to immediately stop getting made when the NX comes out, if it's true.
Andrew Anderson
probably marathon every game and fap Metroid - Metroid 2 - Super Metroid - Zero Mission- Prime 1-2-3 Hunters and fusion & am2r then cry knowing there will never be another good metroid game after a2mr
Kevin Cruz
100000 hours in paint
Matthew Lewis
Nigger please I been waiting 40+ years for a kid Icurus game and now have to wait another 40+ years.
Lucas Howard
Dev is huge into the SJW scene. Follows a lot of faggots, despite that I pirated the game and had a bit of fun with it.
Tyler Young
At least your wait paid off with a good game
Jaxon Smith
Is he? I never heard that. Either way, it's not represented in his game, at all, and it's the best Metroid ripoff I've ever played.
Grayson Hall
I was looking for the Captain N Samus, the only Samus that should talk because she was awesome in there, and I've found this. Interesting.
Benjamin Williams
"Samus was likely written into the comic to fill the gap left by the various third-party characters who didn't appear. She never appeared in the show because Jeffrey Scott "never heard of her," despite her archenemy being the show's main villain."
Samus had a hard life.
Carter Rivera
Man, that dweeb got the life. Got to go on cool adventures with his favorite video game characters while a young, hot princess and Samus fucking Aran fought over his dick.
Julian Ramirez
Thats depressing
Nathan Nguyen
Samus is the strongest female characters. Look at her life, look at how Nintendo treats the series! And she was originally a freaking 6'3" tall, 90kg of muscle amazon, that they decided to make into a JAV girl.
Ethan Smith
That was Nintendo Power, though. Who knows where they pulled that info from, if they weren't making it up.
Alexander Lewis
I'm gonna /agdg/ the tubes game into existence!
Julian Scott
Godspeed user
Nicholas Bailey
I'm going to masturbate to Zero Suit Samus several times
Cameron Miller
The creator of that also put up a twitter where he's showing off some of the unused assets and how some parts of the game look now
Owen Carter
That was just a bunch of bullshit in magazines. Nintendo didn't write those articles. There's very little reference to her size in the actual games themselves. Get over your fanfiction bullshit already, kid.
Aiden Nguyen
...
Brandon Rivera
Take it easy boy, it is correct. This is a suite, not a freaking mecha. It must fit her size or it does not work well. The version made for Bayonetta is a good example of how well it should fit her height. Now about the 90kg. The weight and height are official from japanese sources, people debate if it is the whole pack or just Samus. If we look at the height, we see that it fits her tightly. I mean, where is the hand in the armor is where her hand is, and the same for the feet or head. About the weight. If Samus was really around 1,90 and with muscle, 90kg would be correct.
The woman in the photo have the possible body. She is 1,83m and around 88kg.
William Taylor
Woah, now that's classy. What kind of features does it come with? Is there a hot tub?
Jaxson White
Frankly, her suit is a suite. A suite of suites, even.
Jose Ramirez
In all seriousness, that pic isn't the best reference. Her neck is fucking long as shit, plus the boots and helmet obviously add a number of inches.
Hudson Martin
In the game we can see the difference was not suppose to be big, very few inches.
Caleb Baker
could you say it is a sweet suit.
Kevin Diaz
Well, talking about old Samus was fun.
Ethan Diaz
Shota. Hands down.
Dylan Myers
Man, that was probably the best thing from those trailers aside from Captain Falcon kicking ass.
Isaiah Gomez
I bought pic #1 - #3 Gonna buy either #4 or #5.
Hunter Parker
Why are Samus and various iterations of Mega Man adorable together?
Luke Carter
Samus would make a great digger and a greater Biometal.
Jack Carter
Why would you even consider getting a fig with the hideous Other M design? If you're going to spend money on something, make it something you won't have to hide at the bottom of your sock drawer in shame.
Nathaniel Johnson
Heh.
Brody Nelson
At least one branch of Nintendo did something.
Jonathan Cruz
I actually like the Other M design, even though the game was lackluster. And besides, it's like $35:
I completely forgot that show existed. That's the same studio that made the MIB cartoon isn't it? Whatever happened to them?
Also, it shares a lot of voice actors with King of the Hill. Also, the opening sounds like it's the same guy who did the song for Freakazoid's Huntsman song.
Isaiah Green
No idea, but they were probably too problematic, with all their patriotism and American spirit.
Warner Brothers was much better and probably ate up all their market share. Deservedly.
Evan Butler
imagine
Charles Campbell
Kek. They didn't seem to be direct competitors, as the MIB cartoon originally aired on Kids WB. Warner Bros Animation has slowly killed it self as well, though. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warner_Bros._Animation This is no longer Termite Terrace.
Adam Brown
Where the fuck is this C&D shit coming from? It doesn't even have "Metroid" in the damn title! Why the fuck would anybody care?
Oliver Martinez
imagine
Jace Reed
Nintedrones getting upset that other people are taking advantage of poor Nintendo's IPs and showing no honor to the orginal creators artistic vision.
It's the same shit with Mother 4.
Ian Lee
I think the problem with that is Gamemaker doesn't port to anything outside of x86 and ARM devices.
Samuel Phillips
Jesus Christ. We are dangerously close to Legends 3 levels of shittiness.
C&Ds are treated as serious business, although they actually carry zero legal weight. It's usually the prelude to a proper lawsuit. This should be Fair Use, since no money is being made on it, but companies don't care about the law. The best thing to do is to complete your game without saying anything about it. When it's released, it's too late for them to do do anything about it.
Confirmed.
t. /agdg/
Landon James
Actually, I shouldn't say that exactly, since I don't know about the architecture. Pic related implies that it's possible, but either way, Game Maker doesn't officially support Wii/Wii U.
Colton Foster
...
Gavin Moore
Did mother 4 come out, or did it get C&D'd right before release?
John Green
You're a real life saver user, now I'm only 6 left.
Liam Taylor
The WiiU still uses PowerPC architecture, which was made obsolete over a decade ago, even the Xbone and PS4 use x86 now, which is why cross-platform releases are so easy to make now. There's no real reason to develop for it since nothing uses it any more.
Oliver Rodriguez
are there actually people like that? wouldn't make any sense for a metroid fan to get offended about this game
Colton James
There are people who are actually "loyal" to a company. It has something to do with tribalism, and it's one of the reasons console wars have gotten so bad in the past. It's like none of them are aware that the cyberpunk future is completely possible, and in fact the one we're closest to right now.
Jose Edwards
I'll post some rare metroid music. Good knight Productions had 1 or 2 good songs.
James Gomez
And here is a mashup of 2 songs which goes well together. Metroid Prime 2 Subteranean theme + Super Metroid's Brinstar Red Soil
Was my favorite song for a while.
Jaxson Bailey
And here is a cool OCremix for Metroid Prime's Chozo Ruins song.
Jackson Smith
Big Guy? Bane?
How and why did Nintendrones or any fanboy for that matter gotten this loyalism+tribalism mentality in the first place?
Aaron Lopez
It's definitely not just Nintendo. Remember all of those Usenet console war posts about how Sega is the best thing ever. It's been this way for every console generation in my lifetime, and has likely been around since the beginning. The same thing exists for cars. I couldn't say for sure. My best guess is that it has something to do with safety in numbers. It's a very basic instinct to want to belong to something, no matter what it is.
Bentley Parker
and here is a pile of shit
Cameron Cox
People that can't effectively deal with their emotions fall in love with the products and by extension the company. It's the reason why fanboy and fanatic are spelled similarly.
Josiah Diaz
...
Aaron Fisher
Stop trying to force your sick fetishes, Brianna.
Liam Cruz
Been playing Super Metroid with the MSU-1 patch, and also been trying to get 100% for my first time.
If it's actually something Nintendo does, and I'd be shocked if they did, it'll get ported to NX when the inevitable Game Maker Studio module comes out, whatever the fuck that ends up being. It won't be a last minute thing. It's more likely that Mother 4 will have that bullshit happen on Wii U, with that game being on a custom engine, but we all know it'll just get a C&D when Treehouse localizes Mother 3.
I played it back when it came out, it's pretty solid. More than anything, the spritework is absolutely fucking phenomenal for being a indie-pixel game, and it's really well designed for being one guy, but it's brought down by Might pirate it when the Wii U version comes out for >muh authenticity
Carter Nelson
Who else is looking forward to this game?
Jordan Baker
Jesus.
Sebastian Stewart
Here come the OMDF
Thomas Young
But user, Metroid 2 is the comfiest of all Metroids.
Josiah Gray
I'll buy that once there's a mod for changing the character model into Samus naked
John Perry
I wanna fuck Samus. I'll attempt to impregnate her too if possible. I'm still taller than her by a large margin and man do women like her turn me on Do you like samus with blue or green eyes? I'm Blue eyed myself
Robert Rogers
Why is Other M always the excuse? You can tell when you're dealing with the generation that necessitates the phrase "Baby's First Metroid" since they're always insistent that the western Samus design is canon somehow.
Speaking of which, my favorite completely canon moment in Super Metroid is when balding business suit Mario shoots the baby metroid, what is yours?
Juan Sullivan
I mean, your kid's gonna have awesome athletic abilities but that'd freak me out after a coupla years.
Nicholas Young
It would probably come out mostly human with a bit of Chozo in it like Samus. Not a big deal to me I get a good looking woman and a decent kid or kids.
Carter Ross
Injecting the Metroid DNA killed it all off.
Alexander Ortiz
I wanna say that's not how it works, but I don't know enough to dispute it.
Hmm also your musings have inspired an idea for a story
Owen Gutierrez
Go on, tell me how a transwoman can get pregnant I'll wait
John Walker
Well I could probably handle it I think. **I'm 6'5 at 220 pounds or 200 cm/90 kgs. I would probably see if she wanted to train with me, or train me to fight and so forth. Hell if we're married with kids I think she would, even train me FOR rape sessions so I survive. The children would get mad at us though are you sure it would work?*^
Logan Turner
What is this bullshit? I clearly remember Pendrana not PHENDRANA.
Juan Taylor
It probably doesn't, but I'm going with what the game said.
Alexander Miller
Itt: user gets Berenstain'd
Bentley Wood
And I fucked my spoiler.
Carson Allen
Anyone played Environmental Station Alpha? Damn good metroidvania Id say.
Creator of it is pretty bro and is also creating a sequel
You are right, user. I loved every second of it. Did a shitty time my first playthrough so I'll do it again some time. Now I can play AM2R without feeling guilty.
Henry Myers
Sorry user, it's Phendrana. I even got my crappy metroid metal stored somewhere telling me so.
Hey, thanks user, I'd heard about it and meant to go check it out 👌👌
Jordan Green
You got it mixed up. She was never part X, she was in the process of being killed by an X, so it could assume her form. She never had X DNA, but an X had hers. When the metroid vaccine was injected, it killed the X, but it altered her genetically, which is why she now produces that gooey membrane. I wonder if she can turn it off.
I wonder how it'd feel on your dick.
I thought it was Phenandra until a few years ago.
Carter Hernandez
You mean PENdrana?
Tyler Miller
Clearly I meant Penandra.
John Anderson
Oh shit didn't see that.
Henry Collins
It's 100% pic related.
Samuel Carter
Little Samson looked so fucking good
Jose Cruz

Nicholas Reed
Wow, that game nailed its style, I'll have to check it out more.
Adam Kelly
shameful
Ayden Morris
This looks fucking dope. How come I never heard about this ? Is it better than axiom verge ?
Probably when blackie saves Samus from da ebul general.
Carter Young
I've done 100% best time runs for the original and Zero Mission, so I suppose I will devote a weekend to doing them for Super and Fusion as well. And maybe Metroid 2 but that's a hard game to go back and enjoy for me.
Wyatt Foster
Yeah, I must say it was pretty good. And yeah, it actually is better than Axiom Verge.
William Morales
that picture is making me sad
Adam Ortiz
I want to fuck the Varia Suit. Forget Samus, she doesn't even have to be in the damn thing. Just give me the suit.
Asher Martin
Well you're not the only to say that.
Ayden Green
As a friend of mine so eloquently put it, there is more evidence that she is transgender than cisgender.
And where is it then? I've played most of the Metroid games, why have I not seen it? Is there a Chozo lore/Pirate log I missed saying Samus/the hunter is a tranny? Why is none of the evidence not in your follow up article? Why has no one else posted this evidence online?
Oh wait I know why! BECAUSE IT DOESN'T AND NEVER HAS EXISTED IN THE FIRST PLACE!
I wrote that greentext, and it's wonderful to see it again because it's still and always will be right.
>it gets hired by nintendo treehouse and it ruins the translation for the next metroid game
If this happens, that would break the final straw of the majority of Nintendo's fans turning against Treehouse. The fans are already pissed at Federation Force just from it's a name and art style, making the (delusional) trans status official will kill the series more than Other M.
At least Federation Force does appear to fill in the possible plot hole of how the Galactic Federation acquire Metroid eggs due to the FF stealing them from Space Pirates.
Jason Gray
How would that work? Nature finds a way?
Cooper Roberts
no tubes
Aaron Ramirez
Metroid is my favorite Nintendo Franchise and I have been waiting for an announcement for years. And Fuck Federation Force.
Wyatt Ross
"Ellen", pls.
Wyatt Smith
fuck off
Is Samus the Manbearpig of Space Pirates?
Colton Williams
The x-ray visor also shows that she fits snugly into the suit, too.
Zachary Harris
Prime Pinball is, no joke, one of my favourite 3DS titles. I am a fan of pinball though, and I do love the shit Nintendo threw in that would never work in a real pinball table, but it's just great. If you like both pinball and Metroid it's brilliant, if you're a fan of either it will be hit or miss.
Not to mention two cross-over episodes with the Legend of Zelda cartoon that I still love to this day, pic related
By "gooey membrane" do you mean the Fusion Suit? That's the lining between the plates of the Power Suit and the Zero Suit. It still provides protection but not as much (more than the Zero suit, less than the Power Armour) which is why Samus takes more damage in Fusion than other games. And the Metroid vaccine basically gave her immune system X anti-bodies.
This thread makes me sad. I want more good Metroid.
Lincoln Thompson
I thought cartoon Zelda got hitched to Ganon and excused Link from her service?
Daniel Williams
>tried to emulate Metroid 1 it aged like crap >except Anthony, he was cool
I'm probably going to replay the prime trilogy. maybe buy Fusion on the WiiU E shop and Zero Mission since those are actually metroid games.
Henry Young

John Martinez
damn right
Brandon Sanders

Colton Flores
Metroid 2 is really underrated
I fucking love that game.
Ridley and Zeta Metroid playable in smash bros never ever
Kayden Mitchell
But Ridley's too rad to fit inside Samus!
Parker Phillips
Prime 1-3 is fucking shit fight me nigglets
Angel Morales
You can't argue against wrong opinions :^)
Mason Morgan
...
Hunter Martinez
So why does MP3 get shit? It's a bit more linear and I can see why people didn't like the world traveling gimmick but the environments and atmosphere in the game are by far some of the best if not the best. And considering that both elements are key factors for the Metroid franchise you'd think that it would make up its faults to some extent.
I'm not saying it's the best of the 3 but god damn just look at some of this shit. I'de say the only thing that comes close in the prior games in terms of scope and design is the sanctuary fortress from 2.
Chase Parker
Because motion controls automatically makes it bad in the eyes of retards.
Nicholas Cruz
...
Wyatt Young
I think it's actually just stretching the sweater and didn't pinch the boob
Henry Martin
what do you mean by 101%? are you referring to the extra health tank?
I wanted to like the motion controls, but they were annoying at times changing visors was clunky and morphball jump felt kinda unresponsive at times, though you could use bombs but that's slower, should have just left it out the wiimote itself felt kinda awkward at times too, some of the buttons just arent in comfy positions
Carson Cox
Also posting some Bryyo.
Brayden Richardson
You watch too much hentai. Women can stand a solid tug on the tit without flinching, provided you don't pinch the nipple. That shit hurts. Got slapped for that once.
Alexander Turner
It's definitely not for everyone. I liked it, but I also absolutely hate regular controllers when it comes to shooters of any kind, so there's a bit of a bias.
Wish I had one of these to play it on.
Parker Young
A lot of players jumped into the series at this point. Longtime players snobbishly deride it for this, and for its surface-level similarities to other popular shooters of the time.
I fucking love Skytown and the Pirate Homeworld
Nolan Martinez
stupid sexy samus
Grayson Perez
Honestly I think that's the worst part about the game, in particular the whole intro sequence. It's about two to three hours before you get to Bryyo, and seems like it's blatantly trying to ape the opening of Halo 2 (you fight invaders in orbit, then on the planet below) which came out around the time Prime 2 was released and Prime 3's development would have started. Still think it's a fine game but damn the length and general mediocrity of everything from the start up until finally getting to Bryyo makes it hard to go back to.
Landon Martin
Is it normal to be attracted to a piece of armour?
Nathan Roberts
they probably ran out of ideas, the devs were apparently getting a bit fed up with the series if they made another proper prime title now, they could have some new cool stuff to implement I wonder if the ending of MP3 will have any relevancy in the future
Jaxson Ortiz
The spectacle of the fight with the Balro- I mean Ridley was amazing at the time. I admit it is a bit of a slog to get through the opening. But once you get the PED, it's a great Prime game.
Thomas Watson
Depends on the piece.

metroid 2 is surprisingly compact
Christian Powell
I dunno, it's rather fitting given it's a GB game.
Hunter Nguyen
it is, but when I played it first time, it felt a lot bigger than when you see it on map
Adam Moore
What if Metroid was a girl?
Christopher Wood
Environments are cool and all, but I just found it way more boring compared to the other two, especially the whole "go and find this things that we need to move on" (i think it was some units or some shit like that), they have already done that in the past games, so I just went "no this shit again" and barely was arsed to finish it.
Joshua King
i've always misread it as "predanha"
Jason Miller
How the fuck do I deal with zeta metroids? One nearly killed me.
Ayden Evans
Shoot it until it dies. No, really. there's no decent strategy
Julian Ramirez
align yourself with it's body spam missile
Lucas Ward
I did it. Queen metroid was a bitch.
Gabriel Butler
well done
Colton Robinson
...
Angel Young
Well, there are some arts on pixiv at least.
Jacob Peterson
I unironically love Brand0's cover of Super Metroid. Happy birthday, Metroid. You're almost as old as I am.
Lincoln Clark
Metroid gets all the bitches.
Cooper Turner
are you playing on dolphin? i tried playing on it but the controls were too shit.
are you using a actual wiimote or is emulating the IR with the mouse? if mouse, please tell me what do i need to do to make it not horrible.
Owen Richardson
I use the Wii sorry.
Aaron Richardson
fuck, my wii broke 2 years ago and i don't have money to buy another one.
guess i will need to wait more 10 years until wii emulation get's to the point where i can play prime 3 with a mouse.
Connor Martin
I honestly wish they never showed Samus outside of the suit. That way the suit would have gotten more porn.
Jace Reyes
daily reminder to sexualize samus
Nolan Wilson
to fit a fat 3d dick in it
Dominic Hughes
Hopefully he puts it up in multiple places
Ayden Bailey
pure bliss
Liam Howard
I blame smash for ruining samus forever
Ayden Brooks
Yeah, hope so too. I'll try to get it as soon as I can and upload a back up or two if it gets taken down or anything.
Ayden Young
Lonely Samus OC crushes my soul and I don't know why.
Luke Garcia
Then make OC with you and Samus being together.
Zachary Wright
I'm no waifufag. I just hate seeing a legacy forgotten like that. And poor Samus deserves better, especially with the recent shitting on it.
Sebastian Rodriguez
Yeah, Axiom Verge is also shown during the movie that Quinn and pals made for Steam to tell the world how evil goobergrapes are and why indies are the best thing ever. Dude is a massive faggot, but the game is arguably worth playing. People tend to think the creator is genius but he really just ripped off things that work in better games and glued it together with some decent pixel art. It is totally worth pirating if you want to avoid supporting the more cancerous side of the indie scene.
Levi White
yeah. All missiles + all upgrades + all health and the extra health tank that you don't get to keep
John James
>too rad damn right
Lucas Murphy
One thing I have to say about the Metroid 30th anniversary that no one else has brought up, is that Nintendo* doesn't even really celebrate any anniversary that is either Mario or Zelda.
And even then the Mario 20th was very quiet with basically the Famicom GB Micro western release. While the 25th just gave is a Wii port of Super Mario All-Stars, a bonus CD with 10 songs and a very simple art booklet).
There's no official anniversaries celebrations for DK, Yoshi, StarFox, Kid Icarus, Smash Bros etc. Why does everyone demand Nintendo do one for Metroid?
The last time Nintendo gave any anniversary consideration to Metroid was when Metroid Prime 3 was released around it's 21st while also releasing Metroid and Super Metroid on the Wii's VC in that month.
* While 2nd parties HAL Labs and The Pokemon Company did their own anniversary celebrations for Kirby 20th and Pokemon 20th (ongoing) respectively.
Luigi's 30th Year of Luigi celebration could also count was more just for bring more attention to games Luigi was in (like Mario Spin offs) that year.
Why have I not seen these wonderful comics and their spikey doodled renditions of tube obsessed Space Pirates sooner?
Landon Barnes
I found it to be enjoyable. the controls took a slight bit of time to get used to in comparison to prime 1 and 2 and it brought some interesting aspects to the series, namely the other hunters who worked together with Samus and can't forget Admiral Dane.
Logan Myers
don't see why not.
Brody Myers
Is it your first time? It took me 9 fucking hours my first time
And yeah the queen is tough
Alexander Taylor
SOON
Anthony Gutierrez
Well considering the last two Metroid games, even some kind of recognition would be welcome.
Thomas Ward
She didn't aged. AT ALL.
Lucas Peterson
Ah, Zeta metroids. The precursor to fighting the Bane.
They get easier when you get the screw attack as it can push them back and give you some breathing room.
Omega Metroids are everything a Zeta is but the damage output is a hell of a lot nastier.
There is also few/no health/missile restorations in the Omega Nest so… gonna need good luck there.
Honestly, this makes the game feel a lot more impressive and the metroids, a lot more dangerous.
Angel Ward
Nice work.
Here are two strategies for the queen:
Or
>when her jaw locks in front of you, Quickly go into morphball >roll in her mouth >she will close her mouth and pull you up >roll into her belly >drop 3 bombs >this does shitloads of damage >she spits you out >do this 5 times >She will eventually spit you out and her head will fall to the ground in a special animation before dying
Adam Roberts
It's basically the idea that it's being ignored as it is and that the last game basically was a massive black mark on the franchise as a whole and we just want SOMETHING of worthwhile intent that isn't a soap opera or a retooled E-shop game.
they are the BEST fucking things
Easton Parker
Can you get through this part with bombs only, or am I just supposed to drop from above?
I don't have a clue.
Henry Scott
have you tried to run? you can run in ball form in hyper metroid.
Angel Gutierrez
...
Liam Cox
Sakamoto did.
Jason Ward
...
Luis Flores
other m samus must be a clone. theres really no other explanation for it.
Luis Reyes
they fucked up because they're dumbasses
Kevin Sanders
Odd thing is MP1 ran fine for me. I'd play both on my gamecube if my gamecube didn't break. Maybe I'll finally fork over the cash and get the Trilogy and a Wii. Still haven't played Corruption anyway.
Chase Rodriguez
wait a minute, i have a wife!
Hudson Thomas
Emulates fine for me with a i5 4570. With some settings scanning doesn't work though
I have MP Trilogy on my Wii U but I swear I'm going to have to break down and get another Gamecube. Wiimotes give me gorilla arm, I'd rather use a comfy wavebird like when I first played Prime.
Thomas Torres
FEEL IT COMING
Aaron Perez
...
Josiah Price
O-only the clone is futa tho…
Noah Rivera
I know that feeling. I'm glad I kept my gamecube and wavebird all these years. I got the trilogy for the wii u, but I still hold onto my copies of prime 1 and 2 for nostalgia's sake.
Jaxson Bell
It's a shame they didn't give MP3 classic controls. I'm fine with the motion controls, but it would have been nice to have the option.
Anthony Adams
5 MINUTES, GENTLEMEN! PLEASE CONTAIN YOUR ERECTIONS!
Holy shit this is awesome! Looks great, loving the ambient music, and it plays just as well as ZM did. looking forward to playing more of this one.
Parker Johnson
Anyone know how the fuck the spider ball is supposed to work?
Caleb Jones
Good god the sound assets sound like shit and the background music is just pure ass. Looks ok and plays pretty well though
James Wright
Maybe ya should've left the messages on. Use one of the aim up/down buttons
Jordan Adams
You can replace the sound assets, they're just ogg files that sit in the game directory.
Nicholas Roberts
Welp, arachnus got me.
Samuel Johnson
aaaand that's twice in a row. I might just switch back to keyboard since I've emulated every 2D metroid and never owned a controller. Walljumping is pretty brutal as well.
On a side note, this thread is much cooler than the newer one, that one's pretty much devolved into shitposting.
Dominic Davis
Oh I misread his description and thought I had to agitate him with bombs instead of missiles.
Logan Allen
Im really enjoying the remake, im happy that im playing a "new" 2d Metroid game Also is this guy going to be in trouble with Nintendo? By the way not sure if he can charge for this, but in this age of shitty games for a lot of dosh its amazing that the game is free, imo
Robert Myers
Hopefully someone sees this and thinks he's worth hiring.
Nolan Gutierrez
I honestly found Omegas easier than Zetas. They were larger and didn't move around as much, so it was a lot easier to pour in the missiles. I also swear they didn't take as many missiles, but that might have just been me.
