Samus Returns was a fun videogame

Dark Samus for smash when?
Dark Samus spin off when?
Dark Samus Mahou Shoujo anime when?

...

Thank you for starting a metroid thread without some animu hentai shit samus like most autistic virgin losers do
super metroid>amr2>zero mission
I don't care for the rest

Is Citra a good emulator?
I'm not paying for a 3DS, I just want to play metroid, downloading the rom right now

Vote on Samus Returns vs AM2R

Kraid could work in 3D if he were lying on his back like this and his whole belly is the platform Samus can walk around. Not sure how the awkward claw projectiles would work though

I'm beating again all the story of the 2D Metroid to celebrate SR in order. Just finished Super Metroid, only Fusion to finish.

IMO, SM > SR > ZM > MF

wow Sup Forums is fucking retarded
but I knew that already, I mean check out the all the fucking daily mobile kusoge threads

Do you guys try to have a headcanon of why does samus always loses her itens between games or you just ignore it?

my failure to save the baby Metroid at the end of Super hurts more than ever.

The hatchling I lost, I can still feel it.

I just ignore it but i do appreciate game like Fusion that offer an explanation

I liked what they were going for with Other M, but they handled it retardedly

she needs more sfms

Samus doesn't want to dull her skills and become over reliant on her gadgets, keeping it to the bare minimums.

Most of her space faring activities aren't exploring a whole planet and then blowing it up 9/10 times outside of the game.

I'm sure having Super Missiles while chasing down some local bandits on an asteroid is probably overkill compared to using them to get deeper into a Planet's core to wipe out Space Pirate central.

Where's the beauty mark?

how can you not put AM2R in recommended titles?
this chart just made that fangame category at the bottom, just to ditch AM2R now that SR is out
you disguisting nin ten drones
not even that you just put 1 single hack there, out of several redesigns of super metroid

Out of the way! Best suit coming through

I -want- to like Samus Returns I just can't this is the most frustrating shit. And I see everyone else loving it but I can't see why but I want to see why. fucking video gamess

SFM porn is fucking trash, every single model looks like plastic

It's a video game, who cares as long as it's fun?

I didn't make it, but you AM2Rfags are clearly a minority strawpoll.me/13957063

>Need it to get almost half of the Sky Temple Keys
>Best suit

Eh, it's not THAT great, i just don't go around spreading how it's inferior to Zero Mission due to love for the franchise and how long its been since we got a new 2D game

Sometimes it's fucking retarded. Like how can the Galactic Federation come up with downloadable upgrades for the power suit in Fusion like the Varia? If they could do that, why even bother with the SA-X in the first place?

I mainly ignore it, but I like to think that the Chozo suit doesn't maintain powers for very long. If it can freely absorb pretty much any technology, I would guess that it can relinquish them as well.

Sky Temple Keys > Chozo Artifacts

because it's a fucking fangame you retard

it's a fangame lol

Power Cells > Sky Temple Keys

That one is easy. They literally had Samus's suit to study, they could probably reverse engineer the properties of the Varia Suit since it's not like Samus actually gets a brand new suit, but some kind of data from the Chozo statues.

That's patently wrong since you can start collecting the Artifacts whenever and can get all of them before the Omega Pirate whereas you need the X-ray visor and Light Suit to get the Sky Temple Keys which are both late game upgrades.

Triforce Shards > Power Cells

>Replying to bait

What would happen in a planet made of phazon collided with a planet made of aieon?

>Why is a fan game in the fan game section

did anyone else think the omega boss fight was a little too easy

I really, really want him in Prime 4

Genuinely don't know SR could be frustrating at all unless you're bad and die constantly.

Does the percentage in each area counts toward item completion only or it also include the map coverage? I have an area with 9x% percentage and I'm sure I already got all item expansion except few uncovered tiles on map.

We'd have four different realities.

Pinball, Super Metroid, Prime, and Other M.

Samus must traverse between all four of these insane variants on her universe to bring balance back to Metroid.

Kraid really only works as a 2D boss since he also works as a pseudo platforming boss and the platforming aspects are definitely not Prime's strong suit.

I'd only want him in if they can make a really good fight around him without him feeling like something completely different.

Only item completion, but there could be items in the uncovered tiles

a fangame so good that makes the original metroid 2 irrelevant
it's a 1:1 remake that builds on zero mission formula

it's a legit game in my book, out of nintendo's jurisdiction but a unique experience on it's own

Kraid was partly finished for Prime wasn't he? Or maybe it was one of the later Prime games, but I know they only half finished him. He would have a been a good fight.

Sure, but i don't feel like the game comes to a halt while you're collecting the keys since it does give you access to new rooms, even has more shit to scan, i have fun collecting them, getting the chozo artifacts early to me just feels like skipping a boring lategame bit

I'm not arguing that it's not good, it's fantastic. But you were upset that a fangame is in the recommended fangames section?

Starpieces > Triforce Shards

I agree but it's still a fan game which is why it's under the fan game section, it even says 'highly recommended' in that chart. I don't see the problem.

Seems like user has some kind of persecution complex to me.

>it's a legit game in my book
That's great. It goes in the fangames section because it's a fangame.

I mean you can still jump in Prime games, it's just slower

Fangames are fangames. It's good but still a fangame. You don't see people placing Pokemon Rebon in Pokemon lists

Can't we go one thread without AM2Rfags shitting things up? This is why we can't have nice things.

I'm sorry you love AM2R and hate SR but it doesn't make AM2R not a fangame. There are some great Super Metroid fangames but they're still just fangames.

What's he like in Metroid Blast?

Nothing wrong with mentioning and praising it. Problem is when they go all sperg over it, which happily hasn't happened yet.

Yeah and the Kraid fights are pretty fast with you having to worry about shooting as well as your position since you need to avoid his projectiles while jumping to the new platforms he makes that you can stand on.

I just don't see it working that well in first person, but I'd love to be proven wrong.

The thing with Kraid is he's not like Ridley where you can kind of fidget his size a bit to make him work. Kraid has gotta be massive. It could work in 3D but you'd definitely have to rework the fight into something crazy. Maybe something like Brinstar Depths from Melee where he's this gigantic thing messing with the terrain.

youtube.com/watch?v=4xeatlwX4GY

He was a wall boss in the phazon mines. It would have been more cinematic fanservice than anything, but would have made the game feel more complete.

He could still be a platforming boss. Make him XBOXHUEG and have you start at his feet and work your way up the arena in mophball. bombing weak parts of the arena to bring the whole place down on him. It'd let them implement his weird torso projectiles and could make for some cool visuals as you get closer and closer to his head.

You know what? Fuck it. Take the idea a step further. Prime 1 introduced Meta Ridley so let Prime 4 introduce Meta Kraid. Have all that morphball stuff happen ON his body like his was a colossus. You could even go inside the fucker to fight mini versions like you got to fight in Super.

Anyone else find it strange how you get Phase Drift, Plasma Beam, Gravity Suit, and Screw Attack in the same area practically back to back? And how you're essentially upgraded by Area 7 minus the baby for item completion? It was quite jarring considering how Area 3 gives you the Beam Burst and Grapple Beam then goes on for a long time without giving you anything else.

Area 5 was probably my favourite area. I love how it looks, and the remix of Red Brinstar was great. Also the first theme with the bass was really good. The Chozo Lab in Area 7 was also fantastic.

How do we fix the shoulder orbs?

Give them the Other M treatment

I don't know what you mean.

Samus Returns has weird pacing. I love it to bits, but getting pretty much everything except the final set of items in Area 2 means you have to go through 5 whole areas with barely anything new.

I agree, it's a fucking good game.
It's a fangame though. It's stuck in that section unfortunately.

this is peak performance

Why are people acting as if multiple upgrades in one area is new to Metroid

I agree.

Those nipples are disgusting

Prime 2 is the only one i didn't touch and yet i love the design of this one

>tfw the guy who draws all the empowering images of Samus also draws lewds of her too

Reminder MS originally wanted to remake Fusion.
nintendoeverything.com/mercurysteam-originally-wanted-to-remake-metroid-fusion-instead-of-metroid-ii/

What changes aside from skippable exposition would a Fusion remake benefit from?

>Prime shit
>must play

>3D FPS Kraid
>make Kraid same size as Samus
>lots of HP and resistant to projectiles
>all he does is run around after Samus in the arena shooting claw projectiles and fireballs
>if he gets too close you get auto cutscene death where he'll hug Samus to death like Resident Evil 4 Iron Maidens by clutching and impaling her body with his belly claws

This is actually

Nah, I think the item progression in SR was good. You usually get some kind of weapon and some kind of movement item in each zone. You get Plasma then but you'd been getting shit like Wave, Super Missiles, and Spazer in previous zones too. Varia early, Gravity late is pretty standard as well, You could argue the same for parts of all Metroid games really. Super gives you Gravity really, really early, but the fact that you have Supers and PBs by then also means you get nothing until Draygon, where you then get Space Jump and Plasma back to back. After that all that's left really is Screw Attack, which you get immediately in Norfair.

It's easier to notice in SR if you're a retard like me and keep going back to grab stuff when you get applicable upgrades instead of waiting until the end to full clear. Shit probably added like 2 hours to my gametime. There's a lot of times you can go back and start clearing shit.

Power Bombs is a very tangible upgrade though.

fuck off dobson

This desu.

Prime is 3D Super. It's fucking good.

>Ridley has been in just about every single Metroid game
>Kraid's only been in two despite being about the same rank as Ridley

That nigger better be in Prime 4. He's underused to a criminal degree

>There are people who had to consult a guide to learn how to powerbomb jump

How to reach this in area 4? Below are those block that breaks when stepped so Bombsparking seems impossible

A massively expanded B.S.L., more X enhanced enemies like Kraid, and tons more backstory as to WHY everything like Metroids and Ridley "happened" to be on the ship.

Do we know what lowest attainable % is for Samus Returns yet? I enjoyed doing 15% hard in Zero Mission and 1% Fusion was an experience i'll never forget. I'd be interested in a lowest percent run of SR.

>tfw I'm one of those people

To be fair I'm not used to new ideas being brought into Metroid.

I figured it out due to a Metroid Thread to be quite honest

You can skip Hi Jump I believe

I wish we could get a Metroid show.

They like putting Power Bombs at the end lately. Other M did it and so did Zero Mission. I expected Screw Attack to be last like in the original Metroid 2. I guess the weirdness was doing the entire of Area 7 fully upgraded rather than getting the last upgrade near the end of it or something.

Come to think of it, Other M had weird pacing too. Gives you so little early on, but by lategame it's throwing abilities at you.

It would only work if it was like Samurai Jack and Samus rarely talked

If power bombs were at the beginning they'd have to nerf them hardcore

why they make samus so slutty in porn
if anything she must be the kind of stoic bitch that does not even moan or grunt while having an orgasm or fucking at maximum speed

Do you think after a 100% normal, 100% hard, and 100% Fusion that I might be ready for getting under four hours in each? I'm working on 100% hard.

samus returns really didnt wait at all to give you the plasma beam, gravity suit and screw attack, it's like the moment you get to area 7 the game just gives them to you for free with no real fanfare and without any boss fights

thats my only gripe i think

Power Bombs are just super fucking strong and since they clear so much shit it's hard to justify giving them to you early unless they have a lot of uses like Super.

Because porn artists do not care about the source material. They never have.

shut the fuck up user
that's monkey paw territory
I don't want a Metroid show on this current political shitfest
