I'll be giving Samus my Metroid virginity when I play AM2R.

NX REVEAL IN A FEW MONTHS
PRIME 4 30TH ANNIVERSARY
for fuck sake Nintendo

Samus had a good run. ;_;7

Agreed

fuck nintendo for giving zero fucks

Hey samus sorry horny teens force you so much into that zero suitfor their shitty dominatrix fetish when they draw you,Your fusion suit was pretty cool,wish they would make other suits for tou other then huge ass shoulder pads.

metroid is a cool fucking franchise I'm sad nintendo doesn't even try

-you don't see F-Zero fans whining about "pointless anniversaries."
-you don't even see pre-SS Paper Mario fans making "daily" threads about how neglected they are on neo-nintendo/intsys bullshit. (Tanabe, etc.)
-you don't see fans of your sister game, KI, making daily threads about why isn't there another 2D game and clamoring another style killed the entire series.
-you don't see Star Fox fans gripping on hacks that ruined the series many times (Miyamoto and Cuthbert)

bet my ass the next game will be another "disappointment" like how most people felt about Fusion and how weak it's it compared to previous games (i.e. Prime 3 verses all Primes).

no one gives a shit, have fun with AM2R, cause you're going to need it for a while.
also Sup Forums has the worse fucking Metroids threads here, move to /vr/, /m/, or /vg/ already.

Happy birthday to my favorite Nintendo franchise!

Metroid 2 was my first game, but I didn't really get into the series until Prime 1.

Though nowadays, my favorite game in the series is probably the first Metroid. It's just such a replayable game, moreso than Zero Mission IMO.

so lads

what's next for Metroid?

Probably because F-Zero is actually dead right now. I'm a huge F-Zero fan, but there's no point in talking about the games when Sup Forums doesn't care, nor even does any other videogame related board in this page.

Nice opinion tho.

I can't wait until Miyamoto dies so he doesn't have such a stranglehold over what gets made at Nintendo

it's why we're coming up on a FOURTH fucking Pikmin game yet we haven't seen an F-Zero game in like 15 years. Miyamoto doesn't like F-Zero but Pikmin is his pet project.

You're still the most radical vidya grill there is, Samus. I know it in my heart that one day you shall grace us all with your glorious comeback.

F-zero has been dead for fucking years, fans have just plain given up
That one is a fucking lie, I see preSS PM fans bitch ALL the time, every single Color Splash video has loads of downvotes
KI fans don't exist, there was one game forever ago on the NES, and then they got a really cool and different 3ds game that might as well have been a fresh IP
Again you see star fox fans bitch all the time about how badly Miyamoto fucked up star fox and how they'll never get another good game.

Fuck off and kys.

No one draws Samus as a dom, it's all bimbo stuff.

so..l ong... space.. bounty hunter....

bang i guess

I mean, I also love Pikmin, but yeah, the fact that it has been like 12 years since the last F-Zero game makes me a bit mad.

If Pikmin made a comeback, F-Zero can too, I hope Miyamoto realizes this.

Fuck Nintendo

>mfw Nintendo ignore the anniversary of one of the gaming's most iconic characters yet again

Only four hours til a real Metroid game I guess

Ah yes. Another Pretendo thread. How exciting.

Me merely posting here has triggered you, hasn't it?

You know, everyone whines about how Nintendo never acknowledges Metroid's anniversary, but here's the thing.

How often do they even acknowledge their series' birthdays? It's only really Mario, Zelda, and sometimes Pokemon and Kirby. Animal Crossing is one of their top series and yet nobody complained that Nintendo didn't do anything major for it's 10th anniversary in 2011, nor its 15th this year.

They don't do it. They acknowledge Zelda, Mario, and Pokemon, but that's about it.

Metroid just isn't a big enough franchise, right now, to make a big deal out of it's anniversary.

F

is am2r a rom hack or what?

>AM2R in 4 hours

Welp I'm going through my usual new Metriod rounds. Normal completion. Then scour the whole game completion. Then complete the game as fast as I can. Then try and see how many items I can skip and still finish the game.

God I am so happy

It's just Metroid II with slightly better graphics.

so is it a rom hack or not?

go back to hell cryign about americans, Cody

No. It was made from scratch in Game Maker over the course of 10 years. He kept starting over every time Game Maker came out with a new update and kept making new assets, scrapping them, then remaking the assets again. The game feels good though based on the last demo. I'm excited.

>F-zero has been dead for fucking years
not an excuse

2D Metroid been dead for 12 years like F-Zero did

> ZSS
> Dominatrix
Nigga what? The whole problem with ZSS porn is everyone draws/writes her as a stupid bimbo.

So few franchises reach 30 yrs, let alone recognizable and loved ones.

This was funny five years ago. Now it's just sad.

>you see star fox fans bitch all the time about how badly Miyamoto fucked up star fox and how they'll never get another good game.
they say this for every other game outside universally agreeing how Command is a huge fuck up

I love this fucking series so much

Please, thank him for me. I never make accounts so I cant leave comments.

Never give up hope Samus,I know I haven't

Gandrayda or Nightmare. both have really interesting quirks to their fights

kek

ZSS is the best thing to come out of Metroid

can someone tell me about AM2R? its a remake but how much of a remake? and will it be free?

do i need anything special to run it?

thanks in advance. i really need a metroid fix.

>game
Super Metroid
>song

>boss
Kraid

i agree :P

also the duck hunt dog look cool in Smash, when will Nintendo make a collect-a-thon about them? :D

i miss Banjo ;-:

There's a lot of really cool shit that he didn't have to do like how water droplets will fall on Samus herself rather than through her. Or how light from the blaster will reflect off her armor. Samus even has idle poses now.

The game will probably be a bit easier than the initial demos were. In bosses initially were harder than they were in the newer demos. The Torizon in particular was notoriously difficult before he nerfed it. He mentioned in a post that he always ends up making the bosses super hard at first and then nerfing them later. The Metroids in particular are fucking assholes. Because now they'll dodge your missiles and are (mostly) invulnerable during their dodge animations. Also they have "behaviors." What I mean is that some Metroids will be all over you while other Metroids will fake you out and hang out just out of range of your missile to trick you into running into it. And the Gammas and Zetas have ways of destroying your missiles when you fire at their weakspots.

Its a rematch but theirs so much new stuff it might as well be a new game. Its free and you should be able to run it even on a toaster.

>its a remake but how much of a remake? and will it be free?
A remake in the same sense that Zero Mission is a remake of Metroid 1. It has the same general flow of the original game but there are expanded areas and entirely new areas, scenarios, and bosses as well. And yes its free.

>do i need anything special to run it?
No.

thanks.

i'll leave that page open, happy exploring, soon.

>Get to that underground area with the glowing plants
>The plants glow give light but so does your armor and shots
>Destroying them gives you items so I just destroyed all of them and collected the items
>Get to the Gamma Metroid at the bottom of the hole
>All of the glowing plants are gone and have to fight it in complete darkness unless you get right next to it so the light from your armor can illuminate it
>mfw

As someone who's shit at Metroid but always liked the concept of 2d exploration games, should I try out AM2R?

Yes. It's exploratative but I've never gotten entirely lost in it. Plus it's free. You lose nothing for just giving it a try.

yes you should. whats the worst that can happen?

Ew

4 HOURS

Sounds fun. I never played Metroid 2 even though was the only game I bought for my (now sold) 3DS. Glad people like this exist.

...

>I will never tell Samus that everything will be fine
>I will never make Samus smile

Just kill me.

needs more love and romance

We should leave the tears and whining about being "dead" aside on this day, we get these things frequently enough. Let's just bask in the glory of the AM2R release in Metroid's honor.
Maybe just let this thread die and make a new one 4 hours later when it's already out.

>Bigger franchises don't get anniversaries like AC, Wario, Yoshi, Smash, and DONKEY Kong
>Sup Forums is fine with this
>No anniversary for a franchise that barely sells better than Star Fox
>now it's a crime

THE METROID 2 REMAKE WILL RELEASE IN MERE HOURS FUCK

This is the best thing to happen to the franchise in nearly a decade

So I guess this 30th anniversary is pretty good by Metroid anniversary standards

people were pretty fucking fine about FEfags making 2000 threads about le censorship on Fire Emblem

- F-Zero fans have a full anime + the games have aged like wine, plus Fast Racing Neo just came out

- Jesus CHRIST don't even try to tell me Paper Mario fans aren't salty as fucking hell that their beloved IP has been raped to death, the collage of dumb shit Nintendo has said about Paper Mario grows bigger literally every couple months dude
- Kid Icarus has nothing to do with Metroid, they don't even remotely play the same. Also Uprising WAS MADE SPECIFICALLY BECAUSE KI FANS WOULDN'T SHUT THE FUCK UP, in case you forgot, nobody would let Nintendo forget about KI.
- Star Fox fans have gotten games except that every fucking game has been a goddamn remake of Star Fox 1, and anything that wasn't a knockoff of SF1 is extremely divisive in fandom

>weebniggers are super biased on a fucking weeb site
no shit user

you made a great point there

>AC
>Wario
>Yoshi
>Smash
>Donkey Kong

These games are all alive and pretty active, maybe they don't get anniversary celebrations, but they get games, and the majority of them get really good games, maybe Wario needs one soon.

>full anime
It's not that good, it's barely ok.

>the games aged like wine
GX, yeah.

>move to /vr/

Fuck no, there is nothing /vr/ about what these Metroid threads are.

>whining about Other M
>whining about how MUH LORE and MUH HEADCANON aren't real any more
>whining about the Zero Suit
>whining about how there's no new Prime games

Metroidfags on Sup Forums don't care about Metroid. They care about COMPLAINING about Metroid.

i dunno man i was just playing f-zero x and i still think it holds up.

Metroid is still getting games too

>Wario
>alive

in a Spyro/Sonic way

>inb4 Sonic Mania
even fandevs won't save Sonic :^)

federation force does not star samus and they haven't shown a single metroid.

it's not a metroid game or a samus game

I mean, ''aged like wine'' is kind of different from ''it holds up''. Yes, X holds up, it's a good game and all, but after playing and understanding GX and his mechanics, you just can't go back.

I meant good games, that's why I said that Wario is the only one in that list that also needs to be treated.

I mean, G&Wario does count, just like Federation Force and Other M, but you know what I meant.

wario died with gunpei yokoi may his soul rest in peace

and Animal Crossing's recent games were...?

i've been to /vr/ many times for Metroid and i've seen none of this shit. it's always been peaceful than the likes of Sup Forums, even for /m/.

>"Metroidfags"
opinion discarded

imgur.com/a/MsteR

What, New Leaf doesn't count? That game was great. Yes, it's 4 years old now, but still.

>yes it's 4 years old now

yeah and how old is City Folk aka the last console AC?

>but you know what I meant.
yeah i do

i find shitting on OM cathartic because it has no redeemable qualities and the only real defenders it has are contrarians who openly admit they just like to mine salt from the metroid fandom

Samus will always be my waifu. I've loved her for about 10 years now. Time sure has flown by.

2008, so? I think Animal Crossing suits better in handhelds anyways, and apparently Nintendo thinks so too, but I hope we get a NX title.

Besides, amiibo Festival is on the Wii U :^)

it's a fangame.

the AC team fully admitted that Amiibo Festival was only made because they needed some sort of justification or reason to make AC amiibos, which the team was pushing for because they thought it would be really cute.

Samus is that childhood friend you grew up with but slowly got feelings for as you try to stay respectful of her.

but guys!

what if AM2R is shit?

I know, it was just a joke user. At least we got a whole line of amiibo didn't we? I wish we get a Metroid one too, or a F-Zero one.

Dreaming is fun.

She's also good fap material

>I have not followed this project at all

Everything we know about the game is great, it can't be shit, maybe it will be just ok, but not shit.

Nothing can be shittier than Other M or Federation Force.

At the very least, we are getting a Prime 3 Figma. Unfortunately it's just the Varia suit again but any non-OM Metroid merch is better than none.

Just like how we all followed Brink and Spore, right?

Hunters is, but we live in the "you can't imply Other M isn't the worst thing in existence" world, so that opinion is ignored.

My game was Zero Mission so its always been a sexual relationship.

how do you end up with this much of a disconnect between what the fans want to play and what the producers want to make

>*Hunters' single player
