No, it would have not been there at all.

And whats wrong with that? The rest is just for cheese the game.

>>385027823
Sound test and concept art are the quintessential unlockables in old games.

>>385028248
what's wrong with it is that you need to beat the game AND have the physical dlc to unlock it

it's not one or the other, you need both

>>385027823
Well, it was a nice attempt while it lasted. God forbid a game have any built in unlockables and extras. Remember how Zero Mission had the entire original Metroid as an unlockable?

>>385028350
Are you a retard or what?

That's fucked Fusion mode is locked behind an amiibo

Just get https://codejunkies.com/powersaves-for-amiibo/, go to https://nfc-bank.com/bins.php?categoryid=2 and then get that one amiibo writer program. I virtually have every amiibo.

I'd have to buy a new 3DS to even be able to use these

>>385028861
They have an amiibo reader accessory for older 3DS models.

>>385028035
None of this shit really bug me except for the concept art, Fusion suit and sound test. Fuck you, Nintendo. I'm not buying that shit.

>>385028646
Its not though. You can get it after beating the game.

>>385028581
No but apparently you are a retard with zero reading comprehension. To unlock hard mode, you need to beat the game, and then scan the amiibo.
It cannot be unlocked without buying a physical toy. Nintendo stated this themselves.

>>385029213
Where did you hear that?

>>385029213

>>385029310
Nowhere does it say that you won't need the Amiibo to unlock that shit. Nowhere. It does say that you can unlock it with the Amiibo.
Anyone who says ''You don't need it'' have absolutely no source on that claim.

Remember when you unlocked three whole art galleries in the first Prime game through scanning stuff? Remember how you could unlock art galleries in Fusion and Zero Mission by beating the games with different item percentage and end times?
This is some next level jewry going on here. Fuck Nintendo so hard. This shit should be in-game.

>>385029412
Why would it even be a bullet point on the advertisement if it wasnt locked to the amiibo? Its basic fucking reasoning skills.

Star Fox Zero said you needed the amiibos for classic arwing and black arwing, yet it all unlocked after completing the game

Jesus fucking Christ when will people stop eating up this amibo bullshit. I don't want to buy little toys to fully access a game. Another game I want but won't buy.

Imagine if Sony or MicroSoft had stuff like hard mode and art gallery locked in the PlayStation store. People would flip their shit. But, since it's Nintendo it's okay.

>>385027823

No, they're not. They're locked behind beating the game.

I don't want to be that guy, but AM2R not only let you access multiple difficulty modes without paying money, but you could do it immediately if you wanted. Didn't have to beat the game first. See, this is why people bring up AM2R so much, it continues doing things better than the official company that made Metroid. And you guys can't understand why people are upset? Are you so deep into your corporate apologist attitude that you can't fathom that someone doesn't want to blindly defend anti-consumer practices?

>b-but you can unlock it after beating the game
Just like the content in Splatoon and Zelda? Those weren't totally locked behind season passes and amiibos, right?

>>385030641
I couldn't give a rats ass about the in-game stuff. But the post game unlocks should be there by default. It makes it seem like I need to buy the Amiibo, finish the game and then Scan it so I can unlock all that. Which is pretty fucking scummy

I really hate games that force you to play the game before they give you harder difficulty options. ALBW was boring as fuck on the standard difficulty, so by the time I beat it and unlocked hero mode I didn't even have any desire to try playing it again with some actual challenge.

You have to scan the amiibo as well as beat the game to unlock those extra features.

>>385027823
I absolutely don't want those cheats but losing the art galleries and sound test sucks

>>385031336

>>385031439
In some games it makes sense because the hard difficulty can be a completely different experience, but for most games it really doesn't matter and they should just let me play on hard from the get go.

Either Nintendo are being intentionally misleading to try and get people to buy the Amiibos when they don't actually need them, or they changed their minds. There is still no reason to assume that the listed Metroid unlocks will be given to you without the Amiibos until it's proven to be the case.

>>385032373

Or they lock it at first then realize what a dumb move that would be and change it later. I don't know. Are the amiibo only clothes/equipment in Zelda unlockable any other way yet? Haven't played the game in months, so i wouldn't know.

>>385033092
So wait Amiibos for starfox zero were just "you could Play the game and be good at it so you can unlock this stuff OR you can just buy this figurine that lets you have all that before even starting the game" am I getting this right. Is Metroid doing this?

>>385033316
I dont care. Its both or nothing fuckboy.

>>385033209
It does say it right there in the image though. If you don't assume that content is locked behind Amiibo paywalls, your reading comprehension is really poor. Just because it turned out not to be the case doesn't mean it make sense to assume it's not.

>>385032978
>>385032857
Some games have had content truly locked away behind amiboo like BoTW while others have just been early unlocks like SFZ. Yes. However, the image seems to imply that we'll be getting the former. Don'tbe so fucking booty blasted that people are reaching that conclusion.
>b-but >>385032373 !
Not the same game.

>>385033209
If that game was not already out the wording would sound the same way, until Nintendo officially says the stuff can be gotten without buying amiibos this game can fuck off.

>>385033235
just the wolf version of cave of trials

>>385033347
Yes and no.
The fact of the matter is we don't know if Metroid is also doing this because all we have a half-ass machine translations from the Japanese website.

>>385033347
Basically yes. But as you can see, shitposters are dedicated to the part and trying to sell you on some shit about Amiibos having restrictions that require you to beat the game in question or some sillyass shit.

>>385033402
Ok so when the game comes out in September and it turns out to be false I want to see you eating crow.

>>385031747
>Literally a different type of point
The first are in-game bonuses, the second are unlocks. Nintendo has not locked significant content behind an Amiibo yet, even the biggest offender of SF0 and Pokken which had a character (Dark Mewtwo) and two alternate Arwings (Retro and Black) locked behind Amiibo had them unlockable through completion.

If they do it here, then it's jewry of the highest degree, but they don't have a precedent for doing so.

>>385033476
A Shitty translation justifies why we don't understand shit at least
>>385033478
I don't get that argument though. An unlockable hard mode, gallery, music player, etc. Are good things that encourage you to finish the game. I'd be mad if I was forced to buy an Amiibo though.

What's significant or not is entirely subjective. Some people thought the Wolf-only Cave of Ordeals in TPHD was significant content, but it was locked behind the Wolf Link Amiibo.
Other people would consider something like a sound test to be insignificant.

>>385033709
Nintendo never used to do DLC at all and said it was bad to release a game without all features included, and look where we are now. There is zero reason to give them the benefit of the doubt, you should assume the worst and demand clarification from them, not assume that it's all a misunderstanding and it'll be ok because Nintendo loves you.

Why not, you do it for every other company, you cocksucking shill.

It's not lies and bullshit at all. It's perfectly reasonable assumptions. I don't owe you jack shit for being wrong about something. If it happens it happens. Until then, I'm going by the official description, which says the content is Amiibo-exclusive. I would have done the same with the Starfox Zero one, because that is the logical thing to do.

>>385034256
You're just shitposting now, Cody.

Why would they even write what each amiibo unlocks if a player can just beat the game and get the same thing? The image says the player has to beat the game and the amiibo unlocks it afterwards. In the former situation, the amiibo does nothing so there would be no reason for the image explaining it, and in the latter the amiibo is necessary and is the only logical conclusion to why the OP image exists at all.

>>385033816

>It's perfectly reasonable assumptions.
It's not a perfectly reasonable assumption when 95% of their other amiibo are not paywall-exclusive content and your only "source" for this assumption is a google translated unofficial image.

>>385034348
This game seems a bit cinematic for his taste, are you sure it's him and not just Cody?

>>385028646
I mean it's better than being locked behind a GBA, copy of Fusion (complete) and link cable right?

>>385034351
I don't wildly hate Nintendo though. I'm saying that in this specific instance, it makes no sense to assume this content will be free and unlockable without the Amiibo.

Yes, I know. Had this thread been about that image, I'd assume you wouldn't be able to unlock the content in-game, without using the Amiibo because THE IMAGE TELLS YOU THAT YOU NEED THE AMIIBO.

>>385035620
I was lucky enough to find it at a garage sale. Wish I had another so I could play Four Swords Adventures with my gf.

Unfortunately I can't support a game that has amiibo functionality, even if it's optional it just opens the door to them locking content behind a mandatory paywall and soon enough actively preventing you from getting it without paying more. Don't believe me? Behold Zelda's season pass. It would be no hassle for Nintendo to put that behind an amiibo and say "buy this or you don't get the content."

Nintendo is so fucking good at this, you have to give them credit. It's not REAL DLC if it's tied to a toy, you see! S-so what if I'm paying $60 in Amiibos! The fact that they locked Fusion Mode behind that is hilarious.

>>385036207
Where does it say fusion mode is the only increased difficulty mode?

>>385036342
It being locked behind an amiibo in the first place is complete bullshit. We've known there would be a Normal and Hard mode since the gameplay demo, that doesn't mean Fusion mode being locked off is excusable.

>>385036240
>>385036276
Zero Mission also had a menu that looked like this, and you could unlock hard mode after beating the game once. So, yeah, you're absolutely right that we don't know yet. I'm agreeing with you there.
But, the fact that the Japanese site seems to point towards hard mode being Amiibo only, it makes more sense to assume that's the case. Nintendo could very well have changed things up. If it turns out that's not the case, I'll be positively surprised, but until we get more official information I'll remain on the skeptical side.

>>385036248

>>385036342
Where does it say that it's the only thing Fusion mode does? Locking both the suit and difficultly is stupid.

>>385036542
You should've known when it was announced Mercury Steam was developing it.

>>385036580
So don't make claims like that then. What's the problem? Do you not see how useless this entire chain of posts has been? All because of a poor argument.

>>385036527
Fusion mode and hard mode are not the same thing. All we know is that fusion mode is also hard mode. Normal hard is still there as far as the evidence is concerned.

I fucking love this thread. None of you know the truth and are just collapsing under your own mass of stupidity. Classic 4chan incompetence!

>>385036820
Neither of those were used utilized as prominently as amiibo.

>>385036820
Wasn't the eReader a JP only thing though? Can't really blame people for not being familiar with it if that's the case.
But, it still doesn't excuse having this much blind faith in Nintendo. They may very well choose to jew us out because frankly, that's the most logical thing to do from a financial standpoint. If I was Nintendo, I would definitely make people buy Amiibos to gain access to stuff like art galleries.

>>385034518
that was a suit, not a difficulty, fucking noob.
I wouldn't give a shit about some optional outfit.

>>385037014
It's really bizarre how easy it is for Metroid threads to derail

I CAN'T WAIT TO PIRATE THIS

The connection cable was different. Since the things you unlocked with it was usually just bonuses for owning games you were going to buy anyway. Like the Fusion suit in Prime.

Amiibos is a worse practice.

>>385037101
I'm pretty sure there was a US E-reader, I just recall a lot of content being removed and us not getting as many of the cards.

Metroid has objectively the most cancerous fanbase in all of gaming, shouldn't be surprising at all.

>>385036820
Ereaders weren't used nearly as extensively as amiibos and had no where near as much of an effect on the games they were compatible with.

And link cables aren't related in any way to amiibos aside from being a thing you buy.

The E-reader was only available in japan and SMALL pockets of the US.

This. Even fucking sonic seems to have mellowed down over the years.

>I just recall a lot of content being removed and us not getting as many of the cards.
I don't really recall that at all. I know there was a ton of stuff you could get with the cards, but I never heard anything about removed content.
Take the Advance version of SMB3 for example. There were a lot of exclusive levels that we never got to play, but I doubt they programmed into the game only to be removed and locked behind the paywall. But, I really don't know, so what's the point in making assumptions?

>>385037280

I don't even care about the topic I just want to bitch about fucking amiibos.

It's okay when Nintendo does it.

Doesn't matter nowadays
You can get everything on Wii U Virtual Console
even us PAL-fags can finally get the levels (we previously did get nuffin)

That's strange, I didn't say anything about reddit. Maybe you should learn to read you fucking nigger.

For Metroid Prime, you needed a GBA, a GBA-GC link cable and Metroid Fusion to unlock the Fusion suit and, I think, the original Metroid. That's a lot of money for not too much content, but I guess it wasn't as bad since Prime already had three full sets of art that were unlockable via in-game means.
Things like a Fusion suit, that are cosmetic, I don't mind being Amiibo only. I'd prefer if they were just in the game, but whatever. Art galleries and sound tests are a different story. They are things that traditionally have been rewards for dedicated players. It irks me to see such things locked away behind a paywall.
I guess it's just how the industry is these days. Hopefully we're all arguing for naught and it turns out you can get this shit without Amiibos.

>>385037875
>not allowed to save files from any other website than 4chan either

>>385027823
Who the fuck is going to be mid playing and near death be like "Shit in almost dead, better pop out the ol' limited edition Samus Aran Amiibo (TM) to replenish my health! Take THAT Metroid menace!"

>>385037426
for Metroid Prime you could get
NES Metroid + another suit, which was f-ugly

No art gallery, one f-ugly skin and one terrible game (you would play Metroid Zero Mission instead anyways)

>>385038036
you are significantly underestimating how fucking terrible the average modern gamer is
Metroid is not hard but it's still sadly going to fuck a lot of people up the ass

>>385038034
If you aren't making your own reaction images or getting them from here you're doing it wrong.

>>385037891
Yeah, I simply can't support locking content like this. I'd rather go pay some dipshits who put together an NFC spoofer than pay Nintendo for this, and that's simply out of spite. I'm angry that this has become commonplace. If your game is good, it will sell, and if you want to offer more content then that's fine, but dividing it up across 4+ otherwise useless statues that I'm expected to buy for $13 each is too much. I'm not buying those, I'm not enabling your company to keep doing these things. Put out good games or fuck off. It's not that hard to make optional content available to players but more and more companies see the chance to nickel and dime their consumers over minor things and take advantage of that chance, which is my problem. There is no more trust between companies and consumers.

I wouldnt even care if amiibos weren't retarded rare.

Fat nobody nintenbros bought up literally every new splatoon amiibo at my local Toys R Us, gamestop, and Wal-Mart.

And nintendo is so terrible that it'll be 6 months before they're restocked

Amiibos are cool as hell but fanboys ruin everything as per usual
