That was one of the best things Metroid Prime did, was to give an explanation as to why Samus loses all her toys.

You mean get thrown against a wall so hard that her suit inexplicably transforms back into its base form while every single one of her weapons and accessories (except her basic pea shooter) stop working? What kind of standards do you have in order to think that was good storytelling?

>>3848428
I never said it was good storytelling. I only said it was an explanation. And in a genre where no explanation is the standard, I'm appreciative of something even that simple.

They could invent a lot of bullshit. I'm no expert, but it looks literally nothing like Bob Whilson/Eddie Gordo fight like. Maybe, only maybe, with the exception of his somersault kick, and even that is a big stretch.

Being Russian, it's kinda funny since USSR never had any wrestling like WWE, and bear wrestling isn't a thing. The only thing close that comes to mind is this https://youtu.be/ZsGutd3dvvY
Fun fact: initially, Nishitani called Zangief "Vodka Gorbovsky". Speaking of which, Zangief's stage is a surprisingly accurate (albeit cartoonish) depiction of USSR back in the day. They got the sweaters, vodka, and long-haired slacker teens right, at least.

Sonic-like speed in a platformer that wasn't designed with high speed in mind, so going fast feels dangerous instead of useful. Even more hateable if it's a sequel to a platformer that didn't have it, like James Pond 3.

Pic related for the Amiga is the only 90s Sonic clone to understand how Sonic worked beyond "he goes fast".

>>3848279
The ones you listed aren't cliches the OP was talking about then. Haggar and Alex are.

>>3849141
Final Fight is a beat 'em up, and Haggar barely appeared in other games aside for Saturday Slam Masters and Final Fight Revenge.
Street Fighter III is barely known outside of FGC, and even then 1 character is not much by any standards. SF already had Ken, Guile and Balrog. Could as well add a wrestler, you know.

>>3849156
>Saturday Slam Masters

There you go, he debuted in a fighting game.

>>3849129
jesus that really looks like a sonic romhack

No saves, no password system. Not sure if that's a cliche or not, but it's the worst thing about pre 5th gen games.

Respawning enemies.

the first half of the Meat Circus from Psychonauts was a pretty good escort mission, instead of baby sitting some retarded NPC, you had to run an obstacle course to save that NPC, basically a better version of a time limit.
