Now that the great purge has happened will we be able to have

Zero Mission was an awesome game and the best one on the gba.

Sm>Am2r>ZM>II

Prime 1>Prime 3>Prime 2

No because Metroid fans are incredibly insecure and take any small criticism about their favourite Metroid game as a personal attack on themselves.

>>383525083

I agree with your 2D Ranking, but there's no way Prime 3 would be anything other than bottom.

Prime 2 > Prime 1 > Prime 3

>>383525083
What about Fusion?

>>383525182
Original Super Metroid Varia. I like the deeper orange.

Finally being a Metroid fan isn't total suffering. I hope we get to see some footage of Prime 4 soon, but I guess it might be a little early still. Just concept art or something would have been nice though.

do you think she'll get a new look like link did?

Not him, but I agree with his ranking.
I hated the light world dark world stuff of 2. It felt really contrived, and didn't make the game feel more exciting as a result. And While the Light suit is probably the best suit in the entire series, it doesn't make up for what otherwise felt lackluster overall to the open nature of Prime 1.

>>383525270
That would be higher than II probably. I didn't include the first one cause you can play it in the remake, so no purpose on listing it.

>>383525402
yeah, that one is really cool. I'll take varia over gala any day.

>>383525734
I can understand this, but Prime 2 has always been the most memorable one for me, it's the one that has stuck the most, i can remember parts of Prime 1 but 3 i can remember close to nothing

probably. It will be different, but not too different

>>383525237
Not that guy, but I prefer Prime 3 over Prime 2. Prime 2 just felt sluggish and the light/dark world mechanic just made exploration annoying rather than making it interesting.

Yeah at least the franchise is not dead, but let's not put our standards high. The II remake doesn't look very promising and the developers are not very experienced. The new prime is not being made by retro studios, so we can only hoper for the best.

I'm apparently fuckin' weird, but my favorites are the un-upgraded Metroid Prime power suit, the fully-upgraded orange fusion suit, and the dark suit.

>>383526387
Pretty sure it is a Metroid game.

>mfw my saves of Metroid 2 on my gameboy were just wiped because I decided to play a different game on my gameboy and took the cartridge out

Fuck replaying up to where I was because that third area was complete bullshit and the metroid fights were them just moving towards you while spamming missles to damage them.

I like Metroid!

prime 2 is the best metroid game period and you're wrong if you think not

If you don't actually enjoy Metroid, then sure

People are saying that MSR's counter move is OP, but consider this:
Everytime it's been shown off, it was only during a standstill. If anything it's possible it's not usable while running, jumping, crouching, and ledgegrabbing.

I finished AM2R yesterday and it was glorious. Is there any easter egg or hidden stuff that I might have missed on my first playthrough?

>>383527585
What percentage? If you got 100% then you probably saw everything except that there are three way to kill Queen Metroid.

There's an optional research facility (space ship?) that you're not required to go to to complete the game. Can't remember what it was called

you can power grip counter though

>>383527734
Just 65% I got all the suit upgrades but not every energy and missile tanks obviously.
I knew about 2 ways to kill the Queen. I personally just killed her shooting missiles in her mouth, and I know you can get inside her and drop a super bomb or whatever. What's the 3rd way?

>>383528096
i'll look it up

>>383527531
What the fuck is this.

>>383528394
Well you already know the two exciting ways, the third is to just put normal bombs in her stomach until she dies.

I'm most excited for Prime 4, but SR looks fun enough.

What great purge are you speaking of?

I'd say the Power Grip counter is appropriate. I mean how many times has it probably happened that an enemy hits you off a ledge in Zero Mission/Fusion/AM2R?
Also judging by how it worked in the Treehouse gameplay it seems like it actually takes some skill to use since the person playing fucked up a couple of times trying to do it on the Metroids. It just seems OP because we've mainly seen it on small enemies.

>>383525182
super metroid gravity suit. maximum power, maximum purple. anything else is just trying to reinvent the wheel

fusion suit comes close tho

>Metroid thread feels less autistic, more reasonable, and less hostile
>So does the Star Fox thread

W-what's happening?

>>383532015
New Metroids are coming out.
Star Fox is officially dead.

>>383528281
I will admit that even though I've been in support of the melee counter, the fact that you can do it while grasping ledges does seem a bit OP to me.
