Also while fusion and 2 have creepy moments I think the audio log from the derelict federation ship in prime 3 is a top tier metroid moment. Where the aurora unit is corrupted by phaze is crazy.
Prime 3's theme is great too

You aren't a true gamer unless you still have your thumb strap that came with the original DS, as well as your demo copy of Metroid Prime Hunters: First Hunt

metroid 2 was always scariest because youd be running down a quiet hallway and bam metroid out of nowhere. to make it worse you started hating finding them because they just got meaner. And gently caress that sound when you pass the egg in the final section I almost pissed myself under the blanket past bedtime with the oversized Nuby lightboy add on thing

Get a DK2, play Metroid Prime 1+2 for a while, throw up from nausea, continue playing.

Ok, I played for a while and feel sick now, time to take a break.

Seriously if you are a rich piece of poo poo with a good computer get a DK2 and play Metroid Prime in VR. It's sweet as gently caress. The helmet tracks with your face and everything. The detail throughout the entire game, even in places where people would normally not really spend any time looking, is loving amazing.

once again

quote:

Takahashi then shared some tantalizing information: "So it has been a while since we released the last one and we're having discussions internally about what we can do next. So at this point we have two different types of Metroid games. We have the Prime style of Metroid game and we have the more traditional style of Metroid game. We feel that we do need to take care of both of these styles of play. And the hope is that at some point in the near future we'll be able to share something about them."

they're confirmed to be in the works. when we'll see gameplay of them and stuff is totally up in the air but it will probably be this e3

they've also commented in the past that retro is #1 as far as any future with metroid goes so it's probably their next big game

prime 1 (I'm really sure) actually has a working reflective surface in a room on one of the early areas. You go up to it and it reflects Samus. It's crazy. Also the water effects and being able to see Samus' face on close up charge shots are essentially techno wizardry on the GameCube.

If retro announced they were making a new metroid is poo poo my pants on the spot

If there's one thing Retro did well it was giving Samus humanity without having her speak a word. The biggest example is of course what she does after watching the marine's recording. But another cool thing was at the start of 3 where you're on the ship and the grunt soldiers are all "Holy poo poo dude there's Samus Aran".

metroid fuckin owns. I am v happy I got the metal prime trilogy when it came out, i played the gently caress out of it. stoked for another 2d metroid. especially since konami laid metroidvania to rest. just make games where you collect poo poo that lets you do cool things and explore poo poo and kill cool rear end boss monsters and im there. stay safe axiom verge

prime 3 is good and has good music and it's a shame that there were no prime 3 tracks in Smash Wii U

i feel like it was almost petty revenge with how they just gradually sexed out samus to the point of latex suits and space heels

i mean i am under no delusion she hasnt always been sexed out since met 1 but i still get creep shivers over them jacking it up from just a flash of cheese at the end to making her swank around in the skinsuit and heels nevermind the bizarre bdsm thing that was other m

i think Nintendo officially said that the Retro games are the better 3D game format, so Sakamoto probably won't have a say in the franchise from here on out

sakamoto got "promoted" away into a different office where he's in charge of nothing so yeah lmao

reading the interviews with team ninja where they politely said he's a controlling, anal-retentive maniac that actually has no idea what he's doing and constantly threatened to shut the project down if things weren't done his way was pretty enlightening
