The Chozo are one of the biggest mysteries in the Metroid Universe, fortunately Samus Returns shed some more light on the ancient race but left many questions as well.

Well in Metroid Fusion we actually find out that X Parasites can organically download Data from certain bits of technology.

Samus gets abilities by absorbing X, the X get abilities by absorbing the DNA of living creatures. Therefore, the original metroids were probably having the genome of all the creatures the X had consumed integrated into themselves by consuming them, meaning every physical feature they present in theur further forms is derived from lifeforms that already existed on SR388.

See "True Chozo" in the Metroid Lore. I had made a comment here about it a while ago, but I can't find it anymore. Basically they're a splinter group of Chozo that were banished many years ago by the rest of the Chozo we recognize today. These guys wanted to hold onto the old ways of the Chozo back when they were conquerors, which is why they referred to themselves as "True Chozo" because they believed that those ways were their true purpose. My theory is that the Chozo that attacked in the last memory are the True Chozo returned.

Considering the amount of advertisement made by Nintendo, I think Samus Returns was successful. Maybe not in the same levels as Mario Odessy or BOTW (since they have the advantage from the hype of being on a brand new system) but from my many visits to the Nintendo World store this year, and some online forums, I'd say that the game was well received by fans and newcomers alike

"So to diehard fans, it was a treat to see this old myth finally come to light in one game's lore." In the official Metroid manga, the Chozo revealed that they were creating the Metroids on SR388 to combat the X, so we technically knew it was a fact back then.

I'm a bit late, but I think I have to add my theory: I honestly doubt the Chozo warrior killed the scientists because he wanted to contain the Metroids. Remember, the Chozo are supposed to have a very violent past (the Power Suit is their creation), and while some (like Samus "parents") adopted a peaceful lifestyle, some apparently didn't. I think the one with the arm cannon is a violent warlord still attacking and raiding planets and civilisations with his army (the "good old ways") who rejects the idea of peaceful exploration and coexistence, he just killed them without any real purpose (sort of a superiority/inferiority complex). Comparable with real life extremists killing intellectuals. He wasn't the sort of rescue they hoped for. I'm not 100% shure if this rogue Chozo fraction used the Metroids as weapons afterwards and it's unclear how far in the past the Chozo memories happened (could be decades, but also millenia), but it would make for an interesting storyline. Even a small group of violent Chozo could be an insane threat to humanity because the Federation is an ignorant group of jerks hardly able to adopt the basics of Chozo technology (in Federation Force for example) and the Space Pirates get their ass kicked by ONE warrior with a Chozo Power Suit. Would be a job for Samus I guess. Imagine 1vs1 duels with "other" Chozo warriors, that would be awesome, comparable with Prime Hunters, SA-X or fights of some other franchise where you battle faster, more deadly and "equal" enemies instead of some giant monsters or mechs.

So yunno in super metroid how the chozo statues sometimes turn evil and attack you (ik the name of the evil ones I'm not sure how to spell it so I'll just go with Torizo) so what if like these Torizo statues represent an evil side of the Chozo (of the same species but not fighting for the same goals). Then again the statues might just attack u cuz mother brain controls chozo tech but still.

Now that I think of it, wouldn't the best way to take out Samus for Mother Brain be to keep working on the power suit's design to improve it, mass produce it and equipe pirates with it? Mother Brain built Samus', rebuilt Zebes and rebuilt itself, now with a body and weapons, so, it would most likelly have had what it takes to equipe elite Zebesians with suits of chozo armor, chozo arm cannons and morph balls. Imagine Ridley in a 100% working Varia Suit, Samus' fucking ded lol.

This video is great, but I have one gripe: Metroids aren't parasites. They are predators. Regardless of what the games say, they hunt and kill prey ruthlessly, feeding on what they can in a very violent manner. Parasites, meanwhile, take their sweet time, and usually don't kill their preferred hosts at all, only making things more difficult for them.

And 45 divided by 10 is 4.5... Hint that the next Metroid game will take place between the fourth and fifth games in the series? If it's between the 4th and 5th chronologically, it would be between Metroid Prime 2 and 3. *But* if its chronologically by Nintendo's official timeline, which don't include the Prime trilogy and sees them as side stories, it would be between Other M and Fusion.

Well, with this game they debunked I theory I had for quite some time: X and Metroids already existed in SR388, but when the Chozo arrived and saw one of the X parasites taking over the body of a critter they freaked out, thinking in all of these things like taking over the galaxy. The Metroid we know are simply an upgraded version of the original one they found on the planet to exterminate the DNA-copiers. Problem is, the juiced up version of the predator got out of their control.

Wow Orpheon, you have quite a nice theory going on there. I totally enjoyed watching it. I want to congratulate you on the animations, the new drawings, and how well you constructed the video explaining each chozo memory in full detail. Hopefully Samus Returns sells enough so we can have Metroid Dread or Metroid 5 (the continuation to fusion) where Samus is basically alone and has to go up against everyone. The question is, who is the high-ranked chozo that killed the elders? Is it a commander in chief (warrior) who has orders from the general? Is it another type of chozo altogether? Does Samus even know of his existence? How long did these events happen before Samus became a bounty hunter? I am so eager to see all of those questions answered. Anyways, keep up the great work my friend. Excellent video!

Thank you for the complimented, I am happy you enjoyed watching it. This video was a challenge in how to create a narrative that is interesting for you guys to watch (and not recycle footage or the same static images of the memories) so I am very happy to see the results where successful for you guys. I do believe Samus Returns did sell enough and has enough time in the spotlight for Nintendo to consider a new game. This are some very interesting and important questions that I also had when writing the script, but I don't like to speculate too much without concrete information. Maybe someday we will have our answers but until then "I will need some closure please" Hope you keep enjoying my videos

I always enjoy your videos my friend. As serious as the metroid franchise is with its scenery and plot, you sure know how to make it funny, friendly looking and appealing towards the viewer. I really want to know the answers, because maybe in Metroid 5 Samus finds out that some Chozo are still alive and this *civil war* or uprising from a clan is very very interesting. We have yet to see a live chozo in a metroid game, could metroid dread be the first at attempting that? So many questions, yet so little answers. I definitely enjoy your vids, been following your channel almost a year now. Keep doing what you're doing fellow metroid fan.

I recommend looking up the "True Chozo" in the Metroid wiki. It's an old piece of lore. I've mentioned it a few times in the comment section of this video (one of which was apparently deleted somehow). Basically they're a splinter group of Chozo that were banished many years ago by the rest of the Chozo we recognize today. These guys wanted to hold onto the old ways of the Chozo back when they were conquerors, which is why they referred to themselves as "True Chozo" because they believed that those ways were their true purpose. My theory is that the Chozo that attacked in the last memory are the True Chozo returned.

Henrique GTR. Taurino da Roza We already know what happened to Ridely after Prime 3. The Phazon accelerated his healing factor to the point where he had little to no cybernetics left by the time of Samus Returns. After all the Phazon was destroyed, Ridley ended up getting back to his old self again. Following that, the events of Super Metroid took place before the original died the final time on Zebes and did not escape before the planet was destroyed. Then in Other M and Fusion, Samus faced the Ridley clone that the Federation unwittingly created. No need for Prime 4 to give us answers we already have.

I believe Prime 4 itself will be the game the hint is directing us to. 2D in hex is 45 in decimal and if you do the division of 45 / 10 you get 4.5. If you consider Fusion is Metroid 4, the Prime Trilogy is done(so Prime 4 could jump to a different part of the timeline), the Prime series has never been mainline installments, and it's about time we see the timeline move forward, it seems possible that Prime 4 could be Metroid 4.5.
