What am I in for?

best childhood

In the Trilogy version you get a silver credit for 50% scans and another for 100%

are there ANY games out there that approach metroid prime?

Why has nobody else ever, EVER made a game like this? It's so fucking rich.

What genre would you even classify this as?

I really just love it. Metroid Prime might be my favorite game

Kino

it's pretty much up with the ocarina of time and dark souls

I thought it was sorta tough, but it was good fun.
I sorta have a resentment for it though, but not from the game's fault.

it's really fucking hard to make a metroidvania in 3D, let alone give it a first person perspective. Prime 4 had to be reset and given back to the original devs.

I like to think of it as a First-Person Adventure game

yes, it fits all the requirements for it. 2D was never a requirement to be a metroidvania

oh yes, metroid prime has a special place in my heart.

The music, the atmosphere its just something else.

The environment feels modelled or sculpted instead of put together in a level editor.

you know what I mean..? Everything feels unique. Every stone, every pipe, every cable, placed by hand.

It's just a great game

If dolphin isn't an option, WiiU is the best way to currently play the games since it adds wiimote aiming plus reduced load times

So many great areas in the game. Hope 4 turns out the same.

It's one of my all time favourites. Metroid Prime is a fucking masterpiece and it's one of those games where everything just works perfectly

absolutely

Let's just accept the facts. Prime was a bad knock off of a far better game.

>stripping some of the magic out

No thanks. Controls were flawless as is

Honestly think Wii U is the best. I played the whole trilogy just lying down in my bed with headphones plugged into the gamepad. Honestly one of the best experiences I've ever had playing a video game. I think the people who complain about the motion controls played it sitting down, which I can't picture being very comfortable.

Facts

Im glad retro is doing it.
I know many people who worked on prime 1 left the studio. But I looked it up, based on Linkedin and who worked on prime 3 AND tropical freeze.
A lot of the texture artists and environment artists are still there. So get ready for retro-tier detailed worlds. also the composer will be back 100% since he worked on every retro game so far since prime 1

Prime benefits more from the slower movement and the plant your feet aspect to the shooting. I think It fits the game more than that kind of speed. While I love speedy shooters its fair to say Prime is doing something different and your claim is false as these games are not similar nor trying to do the same thing

The pirate base was spoopy

I have no idea what you're trying to say.

Tropical Freeze is Retro's best game to date.

I don't know about flawless but the amount of hate the control scheme gets is way out of proportion. After playing the Trilogy version for close to 10 years I thought I'd hate the original control scheme, but it doesn't ever really feel like it's limiting me unfairly. After a couple of hours it feels completely natural.

I agree with you but still like prime

I know a lot of them went on to make DOOM2016 and you can FEEL the MP influence. I'm 100% ok with waiting now that Retro is doing it. I hope they can push the switch to the absolute limits. Hell, even make it a Switch Pro release. I'll shell out for that.

>I know a lot of them went on to make DOOM2016 and you can FEEL the MP influence.

Is this true? Jesus. I was getting heavy fucking Prime vibes when watching the Doom Eternal footage at e3.

I remember a lot of places being pretty comfy in the Chozo ruins

I really liked this game but it doesn't feel like it has much replay value. Maybe I'd play it again if they release on Switch.

Dark Souls is absolutely nothing like Metroid Prime, though.

Try the first System Shock. It's a pretty major inspiration for some of Metroid Prime's elements - especially the way it handles lore and environmental interaction.

Dead Space feels sort of similar to Prime with how level design is handled on a room to room sort of basis.

Is there any foreseeable future where you guys can imagine the Prime trilogy being ported to the Switch or is it not likely? After all, the Switch loves porting things and it would seem like a nice way to fill in the gap in time for the fourth installment.

happening and in fact its so likely that its weird that its not out yet

Non-meme answer:
Its actually a missed opportunity on every front for them to not do it. Besides capitalizing on the lack of a Metroid game since Samus Return, it'd warm people up to the idea of Prime 4 or at least get enough of a new audience that missed out on the original trilogy to add onto the die-hard current generation of fans. If they do port of the trilogy, it'd be a significant investment on Prime 4's part. That said the only thing they'd have to do is get off their asses and make the joy cons work exactly as intended with it.

I think its possible and should happen but the chances are sort of middle-ground considering Nintendo is kind of retarded.

It makes no sense for them not to port it over

I love the concept art of Metroid Prime. It's such a unique combination of machine, flesh, and bone. Browsing through it felt like you were getting a peek at how an alien race that was advanced beyond our comprehension saw bodies and how they thought of machinery as extensions of our bodies. It's honestly beautiful in its own way.

Literally shit desu senpai

For me, the STALKER series is comparable to Metroid Prime in terms of atmosphere, especially when you look at space pirate tech compared to the soviet junk scattered throughout the Zone. It's also interesting to look at the fauna (and flora) of Tallon IV where everything is evolved to be hyper resilient due to how harsh the environment is and how everything just does what it does to survive, and compare it to the mutants of the Zone and the Stalkers adapting to it all, whether it's surviving or thriving, coexisting or taking advantage of others, wandering or hunkering down.

i'm learning game dev and plan to make a metroid prime-like when i'm skilled enough, keep an eye out.

Can you choose the hardest difficult at the start? I forget

works good an any platform, but if you play on dolphin you can get like 5x render resolution and make the game work way better, as well as using any controller you want, or the wii version with motion.

No, you have to beat the game once to unlock it, at least in Prime Trilogy you do.

A pretty good one yeah

It's pretty easy to forget you're underwater in Super Metroid after you get the gravity suit. That area in your gif is one of my favorites in the game. It has a very "you're not supposed to be here" feeling, what with this wild animal attacking you and this evidently being its den where it keeps its young. The weird yellow boxes just floating in the void added a sense of intrigue as well. It really felt like you were as deep into alien territory as you could get.

Nice adhd. Stay mad faggot.

Metroid Prime is the apex of what makes metroid good in almost every category.

>isolation
>exploration
>no stupid story about Seamus or her feelings
>no out of place sex fan service

More metroid games should aspire to be this diamond in the rough.

Reminder to play Metroid Prime in a very dark room at night. I'm not a huge CRT fag, but if it's possible you should definitely at least try it out on a CRT because the black levels and fuzziness really does compliment the game.

PS2 Castlemanias, but they pale in quality/budget/polish in comparison. Their OSTs are extremely high quality, and the bosses are engaging on higher difficulties.

What don't they have in common? You revisit areas to collect power ups that are optional, each new power up you get has you test it immediately in a challenge room, you're required to revisit old areas to progress with new skills. The only point of contention is Prime is a very slow paced game which drags on while Power Slave comfortably has snappy levels that don't feel like they waste your time traveling to and between them. You would benefit to play Powerslave.

My favorite game of all time. It was the first truly immersive game I ever played. I remember I bought it on a whim for 20 bucks at toysrus thinking it looked pretty cool.

Chozo Ruins was peak comfort for me, special mention to the Artifact temple for having based music

I remember renting this game for $6.66 (!) after band practice when I was in grade 7. Eventually got it for, Easter, maybe? I've been wanting to replay it for years, but I have a fat stack to get through of less fun games I still haven't played.

What's the best way to play this game? Gamecube, Wii? Emulated?

Emulated Wii version

>when you get a power up they have you use it in a challenge specific to it
Nigger that's every game with power ups

>you backtrack
Very unique to these two games, great comparison user. They both have enemies too, you forgot that similarity.

fuck off and make your own thread about your shitty game.

In a winning strategy the primefag has decided to push forward that there's no difference between metroid and any other game, thus eliminating its own genre, all to avoid it being called derivative of another (better) game.

Weird move but okay.

Just call it a metroid game bro, calling it a metroidvania is redundant.

exploration as a prefix makes more sense. exploration platformer, exploration shooter. It's what the Japanese call it.

primebabies btfo

Cock

There's no bad version and best is up to preference. Gamecube controls are very comfy though some prefer wiimote. The wii version runs marginally smoother and I think has a tiny bit of extra eye candy like bloom and slightly higher resolution but at the cost of the ice beam not covering itself in ice which is rad as fuck in the gc version. Emulated, I can't for the life of me get it to not be a huge stutterfest, even on a ramdisk with an i5 4690k @4.2GHz and nvidia 1060. But HD resolution is very nice and there are mods that let you use a mouse.

Overrated hipster garbage, definitely not worth playing if you value your time.

What's your favorite game?

It hasnt aged the best but it's fun for the most part. Super Metroid aged better just because the better you get at it, the more interesting it becomes and the more fluid movement gets.

Prime 1 is really generic. It definitely took a page from OoT. A hot world, an ice world a water area, poisoned foresty area etc. The Wii version is better. Turn the difficulty all the way up for any kind of challenge. The bosses are boring as fuck.

Prime 2 is better in every way.

Hollow Knight

Not saying that prime 2 is bad, but I can never muster the energy to finish it. I have no idea why.

Not a brilliant strategy in defense of metroid prime. You'd think you would want more games like Powerslave out there, as it did invent that style of game play in first person.

Im not defending the game from one I don't care about, I'm mocking you for comparing them in such a dumb way. You're being mocked, user.

I own a nice CRT, but am not sure if the wii will output Trilogy to it. Also I don't remember if you could play without the wiimote and disable free aim. I want to make my play through as hard as humanly possible

Prime 3 had the option to disable free aim, so I can only assume the trilogy has the same option.
You have to use a wiimote tho

Hate to say it, mate, but Powerslave is 100% tranny repellent, regardless of your thoughts on the game itself.

Don't blame prime for every other game implementing shittier systems. Nowhere does Prime give you neon trails so you can go in a straight line to your next objective.

I appreciate how hard it must have been to do a 3D representation of the Metroid series but it ended up feeling way too much like a Sesame Street match the colors game. You use the orange gun to open the orange doors, the white gun to open the white doors, the purple gun to open the purple doors, the red gun to open the red doors.
Time to fight some enemies! You use the orange gun to fight the orange enemies, the white gun to fight the white enemies, the purple gun to fight the purple enemies, and the red gun to fight the red enemies.
I hope the player has had time to master this concept that they've been doing the ENTIRE GAME. The time has come to test their basic ability to identify colors - the final boss. You use the orange gun to fight the orange phase, the white gun to fight the white phase, the purple gun to fight the purple phase, and the red gun to fight the red phase. Wow that was so cool and provided so much variety!

REFUTE IT

The only enemies like that are the power beam space pirates that only appear in the last area of the game

I actually remember being able to facerape most enemies with the plasma beam in a few shots, and among the other enemy types, charged ice + missile deals with them.

A good time.

I just upscaled it on an emulator as much as possible and while it still stands up by today's standards? It would be a game these days that is more "artistic" than it is detailed and honest to reality. That's fine, because I don't think that was what Retro was aiming for anyways. Aside from them trying to make Samus look real on gamecube hardware. To me however, Samus will always be what she was in metroid prime.

Games from that period did that. You're arguing that the entirety of the game was that dynamic. Or at least I think you are. That is an unfair assessment.

So sad.

To the original studio. Sadly the devs from Metroid Prime are no more in Retro.

Retro still putting out great games at a snails pace but hey its something

Yeah, it is good but not as good as Prime 1 or 2.

I still like it more than 2

OOF

It's better than 2, though.

Sure. The return of Donkey Kong was amazing but honestly I'm worried about how MP4 will be.

I don't know if 2 amd 3 got modded but one is fucking godly. Its unbelievable the game looks THAT GOOD in VR for being a GCN 2001 game.

The visor hud elements make it feel immersive. The controls map well to an xbox controller and its easy enough to adapt.

Not sure if there was ever a motion control mapping to the VR stuff. I think gcn controls only. The VR codes dislodge head viewing from actual facing direction so it still works.

>it's really fucking hard to make a metroidvania in 3D, let alone give it a first person perspective.

Metroid Prime wasn't even the best first-person Metroidvania in the year it came out.

It also doesn't even make very good use of the first-person perspective. E.g. you don't even have to aim because of lock-on.

Yes, but the dungeon is interconnected, and you have to acquire specific spells to bypass certain obstacles

It even has sequence breaking. For example, you could wait until you get the Levitate spell to cross a certain chasm. But you could get the Haste spell much earlier on, which boosts your movement speed and jumping distance, allowing you to jump ovr that chasm

>almost all cutscenes skippable
this is how every fucking game should be

what is it about metroid prime that draws these retards to post mediocre games no one cares about?

Good art direction is quite literally EVERYTHING when it comes to graphics aging gracefully.

framerate being 60 helps too

Any format is good, honestly. I personally prefer to play the Trilogy on the WiiU.

2 had more than a few parts where I wouldn't say I got lost so much as extremely confused. It doesn't really "signpost" its environments well, if that makes any sense.

Shit

Christ, the mods finally ban ACfag, and a new retard just comes to take his place? Is this franchise literally cursed or something? I just wanna discuss Metroid games because I like them; is that so wrong?

there's a simple trick but no one can do it anymore
dont reply

I don't, but you don't even have to with these types; they're quite happy posting rants into the void or falseflagging arguments.

i've heard that brahma force is like armored core x metroid prime (before metroid prime)

Super Metroid but in 3D

No Kraid though, which is a shame.

Trekking back and forth sixteen times through the magmoor caverns.

How was Prime Hunters? Never had a DS, just got a 3DS recently

To be fair, he was planned, but cut due to time constraints I guess. Not the other thing we missed out on either, from what I've come to understand there were also plans for
>Another extra region of Phazon Mines below the bottom part in the final game, where Kraid would be, probably requiring the Phazon Suit to progress, thus giving it an actual purpose beyond one artifact
>Screw Attack
>Thardus was originally planned as the boss for Magmoor, with another boss used in Phendrana
pic related has concept art for both Kraid and the ice boss

>that ice boss

I love it, i feel like kraid would be a bit stupid looking in 3d

A surprisingly fun but decidedly unbalanced arena shooter.
The campaign is not good, just a bunch of multiplayer maps slapped together. Maybe worth one playthrough, but you'll have more fun either by using custom servers or playing bot matches.

Yeah I'm not sure how Kraid would translate either, though there were some models made for him, pic related. Unfortunately Nintendo didn't like the ice boss much apparently, supposedly they had it pulled because they felt it didn't fit Metroid very well. There are a couple of animations that were made for it though, see link, at 1:00, as well as the comments

metroid.fandom.com/wiki/Kraid has a couple details listed for the plans on the Kraid fight as well, sounds like he got replaced by Omega Pirate possibly.

I first played it years after it came out. My first Metroid game. After I got over the initial control weirdness I was absolutely absorbed the whole way through. Absolutely perfect game.

ACFag finally got banned? when?

it says primehack supports metroid prime corruption demo?

where can I actually obtain the iso/whatever for that? sounds interesting

What do you want, orange gun kills white enemies, white gun kills blue enemies and so on?

Some dank ass shit, nigga.

>get to impact crater
>check my log
>missed the scan on the tentacles that cover the morph tunnels on the plant boss

But it is? Just because you get keys instead of powerups to unluck more areas doesn't make it not metroidvania.

What would you like to see in a Metroid Prime clone? One with free aiming of course.

Asking for a friend.

Unpopular opinion: Play it whatever way allows you to use the original controls. Gamecube is ideal.

sequence breaking!

These threads always make me sad, I missed out on the whole trilogy for the worst reasons possible. I guess zoomers don't deserve happiness.
>be 10yo
>religiously watch a guys LP's of all the OG Metroids
>get Other M for the Wii and love it
>go on amazon to find more Metroid games like it
>find pic related for 50 bucks and shit my pants at how beautiful it looks
>view the pictures and find out all three games are in first person
This is the part where, as of writing this, I want to kms for having been such a loser
>after a deep internal struggle I decide not to beg my dad to buy it for me because I was convinced I wouldn't have fun with the game since it's in first person and I wanted something exactly like Other M
>years later I find out everybody hates Other M and praises Prime
>missed out on precious childhood memories
God damnit. Happy Metroid Anniversary guys.

Of course. The plan is to include to so many movement options in combination with an already non-linear path that not-planned sequence breaking will be happening. And if found in play testing those will not be fixed.
Which makes it also necessary to carefully design it so players can't get stuck at any point.

>40FPS at the starting area
fuck, ill stick to gc version then, it's much less demanding on my toaster

Amazing. Movement tech is one of the things that annoys me about Prime, it's too much about exploits rather than organic like in Super.

Yeah yeah I get it. Never said anything like that though.
