Topic: Metroid: Samus Returns

@6ch6ris6 You and me both.

So far the Zeta boss looks soo fun to fight against. There are multiple ways and exploits Samus has in order to take him down and yet, the thing still seems challenging in a pleasing way.

In a way that would make me say, "Aaw man! I almost had him!" with a smile on my face and not, "Son of a b****! This thing is so cheap!"

The player is also pretty good at the game too.

@Yellowtails Well, I know of at least one who's an otherwise reasonable guy (who actually reigns me in sometimes) claiming the remake is just ripping off AM2R and he'll never support it.

sigh Why does Metroid bring out the worst in people?

I need that squishy metroid amiibo.

Oh ffs.

They're talking about that Rabbids game again after this.

My only concern now is that this is being developed by Mecurysteam who did Castlevania Lord of Shadows but more concerning, the 2D Mirror of Fate release for 3DS. This had kind of mixed reviews.

Hopefully they have learnt from it and have the backing and resources of Nintendo.

Everything I saw was good.

I mean, at the very least we know it can only be better than the original.

I would've preferred a full retail game for the Switch but I'll take any Metroid I can get. Can't wait!

@SilentJ The switch IS getting a full retail Metroid game too

I guess this explains why they shutdown that fan made metroid 2 remake, they had their own in development.

Regardless, I'm excited for this. It looks like a pure side scroller version with other M's combat system. As long as samus doesn't speak, I think this will work out nicely.

Might get this game. Not too sure though, it might be too hard for me. But I'm happy for those who want it.

Don't worry, this is pre-baby Samus.

@Savino

It feels so good once you do so.

I remember yelling triumph when I finally beat Fusion.

@Meowpheel But then we probably have to watch adoptive samus aran.

We have to watch an orphan bounty hunter adopt a parasitic alien after she killed all it's relatives.

Yeah, I'm liking how Samus has a melee attack and is taking after her Other M fighting style.

Just like Zero Mission added an extra segment after the originial ending, this one will add a baby metroid pet sim after you beat it. It will be called "da babeh mode".

The trailer vid that you can download looks amazing. It really pops

@Meowpheel Really?! Sweet! I was only able to catch a few minutes of the 3ds gameplay on my break.

@DarthNocturnal that's the magic of reimaginings. The pet sim takes place during the time she had it in her ship-

also while I was typing that MARIO AND LUIGI happened

Samus's visor in the box art has a strange case of the Dark...

Isn't Metroid II supposed to be after the original Prime trillogy?

Can't wait to see the retcons and elements they introduce in this to make things fit better.
