The Official Metroid Thread-PRIME 4 and SAMUS RETURNS HYPE

[Meta Knight]

For everything Metroid, this will be a thread to discuss Metroid games, Metroid content, etc. I'll try to have daily questions/polls to try to keep this thread running. If you don't know what Metroid is, it's Nintendo's big space franchise of isolation and exploration and you play as the best bountess in the galaxy, Samus Aran.

Why do I like this series?
I guess I like going around exploring the planet to save the world. It feels like a sci-fi Zelda for me and it will be one of my favorite franchises.

What is my favorite Metroid game?
That depends,
2D: Super Metroid
3D: Metroid Prime
Handheld: Metroid Fusion
Console: Super Metroid
All time: Super Metroid

All this and more in the future.

I have only played Zerio Mission and Fusion insofar, but I had so much fun with both games. Out of the two, Fusion was more enjoyable, because the concept of the X was soooo interesting.

I know and the SA-X created so much suspense in the game. Just it's hearing it's footsteps made me shiver as a kid.

Re: The Official "Metroid" Thread

also dont forget the upcoming release of another metroid 2 remake

which has the possibility being better than super metroid from what ive played of the demo anyway

its been a huge success so far and a lot of people love it.

idk x was kinda annoying if anything, especially the x forms after the actual bosses were really annoying

plus the fusion suit design was really ugly

....maybe im just bitter because sa-x chase scenes

also in all honesty fusion probably had the lamest final boss ever

This is the only franchise in existence that I own every entry of. Yes, even that one. Favorite Nintendo franchise, getting tired of waiting for a new entry, blah blah blah. The first Metroid Prime is my favorite game ever.

Basically this.

I want a new 2D Metroid game, don't care for the 3D ones.

I honestly think we should get both, but if I had to pick I would take a new 2D Metroid game.

Well it probably will be better than the original, the original Metroid 2 has a lot of faults.

Which game are you referring to Other M? I don't blame you there was a lot of hype (for me anyway).

Re: The Official "Metroid" Thread

pretty sure there was plenty of hype for other m

probably what made it even more shitty

Sounds a lot like Sticker Star.

I may not care for the 3D side, but I think we should too (and there was even an article some time ago that supports the chances of this).
