I've very much enjoyed Metroid prime remastered lately, then literally every other Metroid game available on switch.

I've now have played every Metroid
except Federation Force and want to give it a try, but not alone. I was wondering is it still possible to play this online? If yes, who else is interested?

I used to play it for a while when it was new and i would be interested in playing it again if it is still available to play online.

I stopped playing it after i encountered a super difficult boss at one planet.

@Simon97 Hey, yess its still playable online. I just played together online with a random yesterday. Im also part of a discord group with MPFF players, they've all played the game endlessly so their miles ahead but still fun when you can keep up. So if your interested we can play together and also if you want to, join the discord group.

@LeafaTypeR Okay What is the Discord group? Is there a link to the group? I have not used Discord in a few months so i am a little rusty about how Discord works, but do i find the group or do i get an invite to it?

I heard that Metroid Prime: Federation Force wasn’t that good.

I don’t have it but it sounds interesting. Shame people hated it because it wasn’t the game they wanted.

I heard the majority peoples hate the Chibi looking of the characters and not Samus as the main character.
I have the game and the character design in Chibi looks cute anyway but the gameplay was really hard for me as i have zero knowledge about metroid franchise.
I stopped playing when already reached mission 11 where I should put something to be sending while attacking alien creatures to protect the device being sending. I gave up, I have no idea to keep survive on that mission.

@Colonel_Mustache Primarily because it was a spinoff during a time when the main series was experiencing a drought (5 years since the last game, and the last game before that was also very controversial so some fans may have gone even longer without Metroid), but also the resemblance felt somewhat superficial, like the bigwigs at Nintendo decided wanted to sell a kiddie co-op shooter and just said "Eh, we'll just slap the Metroid Prime branding on it so it'll sell better". It didn't have... well anything that people like about the Prime series or Metroid in general. It didn't have the exploration based gameplay where you look for powerups because it was an arena shooter. It didn't have the sense of isolation because it was co-op. It didn't have the realistic environments because of the chibi artstyle. About the only thing it has in common with Metroid is it's a first person shooter, that's it, other than that it's pretty much the exact opposite of what a Metroid Prime game traditionally was. Those types of experiments where you try to turn the game into something it's not and retains little to none of its IP's appeal... really tend not to go over well, I'm not surprised at all that it failed.

Nintendo consoles always had a “younger” audience. Review bombing and all that nonsense. The reception really damaged the game. But that said, think we got BlastBall for free as a result. Got more enjoyment out of that little gem than some AAA titles I own. Great one for multiplayer with the mates.

Game over man!

Literally played it singleplayer this morning as hadn't in a while. I am not into 4 player but 1 player mode shooters at all but I'm doing my best with it.

It is not a perfect game but do I have fun with it regardless of suiting "Metroid name/structure or not" eh I'm fine with it regardless of that. I have other entries to enjoy for that instead.

Just got Uplink to do and finished that row. I only just did the one above it in Exceleon this morning as I 'finally' beat the waves and then worked out how to link the nodes. XD

But struggling due to difficulty sometimes while others I power through and get it pretty well if I'm quick enough to see enemies and eliminate them.

Thinking of redoing older missions to get used to the controls/and the medals. I don't think I've gotten stronger at all just quicker at coming back then taking a break then coming back and having an idea what I missed/did better the next time.

Drones only do so much after all so got to be careful with my mods, ammo and precision aiming with gyro (I could use the New 3DS C stick controls but I didn't think much of it).

My last progress was on mission 11, 12 & 13 but mission 11 was really too hard for me to endure during the sending the data from alien attacks.
