If you prefer watching the cutscenes-only version, watch it here! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hr1xn5aEutjZqYU.html We had a blast playing this game. It took us back to our Super Metroid playing days. We hope you enjoy the video and also have a great day. Thanks for watching. Metroid: Other M takes place between Super Metroid and Metroid Fusion. After awakening in a Galactic Federation facility, Samus Aran departs for space and picks up a distress signal from a derelict vessel known as the "Bottle Ship". Soon after landing, Samus encounters the Galactic Federation 07th Platoon; among the Platoon are Anthony Higgs, an old friend from her military career, and her commanding officer Adam Malkovich. After Samus saves the platoon from monsters, Adam allows Samus to cooperate in their mission, under the condition that she follow his orders. Samus and the 07th Platoon head to the Exam Center in the Biosphere, and learn that the Bottle Ship was conducting research on bioweapons and the person in charge of the project was Dr. Madeline Bergman.

"Adam hadn't authorized it, but as I wasn't a member of the military, he really couldn't order me to do anything" how this game should have began, and ended.

The part at 2:00:00 is a great example of how I would want Samus to speak in future games. Very minimal and empathetic. This scene is entirely how I think Samus would be if she was a real person. Especially the “may I come closer?” Part. This is my favorite scene in the game.

Samus: OMG, I'M DYING....NEED TO USE...RESERVE TANK. Adam: Sorry Samus, we haven't authorized the use of that yet for this mission. Samus: BUT IM OUT OF OPTIONS...COUGH...MY ORGANS... Adam: Now listen here, lady..

For a Nintendo Wii game it’s got some beautiful graphics !

The way Samus's footsteps sound in her suit as she walks is so reminiscent of the SA-X.

2:14:45 “Unfortunate, what happened to Commander Malkovich. And to think that his entire unit was annihilated… “ *surprised and frustrated that Anthony survived *Absolutely implies that even the Deleter was expendable.* I like to believe that James had orders from the start to off himself after he finished wiping all other evidence, just to make the story a little more hardcore

Say what you want about the story and controls, but I think the cutscenes are beautifully made.

I was like 14 when I played this game but I still remember really enjoying it, even though it doesn’t seem as great now as it did, I can still understand why I enjoyed it lol

I honestly LOVE the idea of Samus actually having emotion in this game, I played dread and she seems more like a badass that doesn’t care about anything. Her hesitation makes her seem more human

The gameplay of Other M needs one more chance. It's a brilliant idea that's works in practice, it just needs to be attached to a story that isn't odd.

Drinking challenge for this video, take a shot every time someone says baby

"I'll call the traitor... The Traitor." 😁

Thank u for bringing so many game story’s to people like me that don’t have these classics anymore. And also thank you so much for supplying me with things to watch for my quarantine time. You are the best!

If you picture Master Chief voice instead of Samus you get some funny chuckles.

Samus: Why are we still here Baby? Just to suffer? Everything I do...my powerbombs.....even my missiles.... The actions I’ve lost....the fans I’ve lost.....won’t stop hurting..... It’s like they’re all still there. You feel it, too, don’t you?

Won this game as a promotion when I was subscribed to a magazine. I remember that despite the controls being different from what I was used to, I really enjoyed the weird and incredibly convoluted story it offered. It's not the same as the prior titles, but it did give Samus a different angle to develop in. And it doubled as a mild sci-fi horror, which was very entertaining.

7:50 did i just heard car brakes in space?

Anthony: "And your buddy's here too...!" Adam: "👁👄👁"

As bad as this game was, one thing I will forever praise it for was just how good the animation and visuals were. Samus looked better in this game than any other metroid game I have played. Especially in the beginning when she wakes up before training and at the end when she is in casual wear looking at the federation city. She is drop dead beautiful.

2:28:40 well that emotional moment was ruined

57:15 this aged well , SUS

@5:50 See, to a Metroid lore nerd like me, this is where the game’s story starts to derail. The manga had already been out for sometime by now and there’s really no excuse for why they didn’t delve into Samus’ history and what exactly this moment *should* mean to her. She describes announcing the successful completion of this mission was “simple” and “almost dull”, which in itself isn’t a bad thing, she’s always been a business first character. But what follows is the delegation cheering for the extermination of her home. Yes, they’re relieved that they’re finally safe from Mother Brain and the Pirates and even Samus would recognize that, but in this moment, she’s completely alone. Her mission is complete, her parents are avenged and her promise to the Chozo has been fulfilled and upheld. And she has nothing to show for it and no one to comfort her. She’s brought peace to the galaxy but where does she go from here? What use is a warrior in a world that no longer needs them?

Can we all appreciate how beautiful Zero Suit Samus is?

Adam in this story really rubbed me the wrong way, even ignoring all the stupid stuff like not authorizing a heat immune suit in the lava level until half way though it, well the way he acts acts around Samus is well resembles an abusive relationship. He hardly seems to care about Samus or her direct feelings and even though she is not even a part of his command unit or the military for the matter he seems to constantly force his cold authority on her and Samus just does with hardly any question. Samus acts like a obedient daughter afraid to stand up to her authoritarian father that constantly acts like he never cared about her to begin with.

34:12 These sections always got me thinking how great an over-the-shoulder style Metroid (similar to modern Resident Evil games) would be.

Can you do the Metroid Prime Triology as well? Its so hard to find Cutscene Movies on this platform. Love your videos and content as always!

Samus, if you aren’t under adam’s command anymore you can use all the missiles you want. Wtf.

The cutscenes were ahead of it’s TIME FR FR!

I'm one of the few people that don't buy into the fake outrage that followed this games release, yes it had very minor flaws, but it was a good game with good story, perfect prequel to fusion. It didn't actually ruin Samus' character, it made it more interesting after fusion and humanized her.

The CGI cutscenes overall look really good even 10 years later. Watching the end battle of Super Metroid recreated like this was mindblowing back then. ...Too bad there's hardly anything interesting happening in most of them. ...Samus was cute though.

Man, Adam is actually pretty incompetent as a CO honestly.

57:16 NOOOOOOO, AMONG US REFERENCE!!!! 😭😭😭😭😭😭📮📮📮📮📮📮📮📮

I'm gonna be watching this. I have always felt interested on samus but I have never played a metroid game for some reason. I hope I can understand a bit more of samus's history/background with this video.

I cannot believe I watched the entire thing, this is like a whole movie

(3:17) And they said the Wii was for kids.

Samus' design is flawless ❤

I have to admit - I quite like this / Games series have to evolve to survive - Samus should too / This game proves that she doesn't to be silent and soulless - This game shows we can connect with her as a person - I hope they do more games like this

Honestly my only true complaint with this game is Samus's monotone voice acting and dialogue. A lot of it just sounds exposition better suited for a novel rather than a video game. But besides that this game looked and played really damn good. Although from a gaming standpoint the authorizations are a let down, It makes sense and does serve a purpose to the story for Samus's relationship with Adam and I can let that slide.

This makes me appreciate Adam from fusion and so on from now on

It's really unfortunate that this game garnered so much hate and criticism. Its pros far outweighed the cons. The visuals and designs were phenomenal, especially considering its console and era, and the dialogue was a genuine effort to humanize Samus and shift her from a near mindless blasting machine to a person capable of experiencing emotions despite her years of experience and expertise. I do agree that the psychological breakdown after seeing Ridley was a little much, however it was a brief moment of weakness that could surely have been overlooked. Additionally, to identify the overall narrative and her affection for Adam as a flaw is extremely narrow-minded. I thoroughly enjoyed this game. The fans' reaction was truly a shame, because they may never again attempt to add this level of depth to Samus as a character; a concern that, to me, was exacerbated by the fact that she had only ONE voice line and ZERO significant moments of reflection in Metroid Dread.

This brings back memories

That guy is lucky as hell to be alive!

4:30 well, the test was pretty quick.

I loved the story and the gameplay. It was an amazing mix of Prime and Classic style Metroid. Her narration had a nice Sci-Fi movie touch.

I feel so bad cuz the entire time I low-key hated Adam but then it was like nope he’s just a father trying to save his adoptive daughter like now I feel like an a hole

With Metroid Dread around the corner and my next game in the series being Fusion, I can kind of understand how the Metroid DNA got embedded on her as a person (from what little i know in fusion ) and not the suit which is why E.M.M.I hunts her down. Great gameplay movie! Now on to the next game!

1:51:05 I like the way Ridley is suffering for what he deserves

the camera work on these animations are better than this days movies. I already ordered pizza to watch this haha.

Thank you for making these videos. I don't have time or money to buy these games. An I think into today's world video games are way better at story telling then the crap Hollywood puts out.

This game is supposed to be after Metroid Prime canonically and back then I didn't like to see a fearful, vulnerable and crying Samus, for me she was one of the most powerful videogame characters

Little gamers playground Thank you for another amazing 📹 have a fantastic day🙏🥰

It's 1 in the morning and I'm having trouble falling asleep. This is perfect!

I feel like this and Fusion are a duology that really need remakes for the writing alone. While I personally find the stories to be good overall,(This game less than Fusion, but I will get there) it clearly just lacks polish. For example 6:30. All distress-signals are supposed to draw attention, they clearly only wrote that line to have an excuse to say "Baby" a few times. These siturations exist on both games and honestly just need a rewrite or two. Now onto the Other M-exclusive issues(Spoilers for the game/video): -Adam. No really, this guy and the stuff around him is the worst part of this thing. In Fusion, Samus calls him harsh but fair and says that he was a person she could trust, even if he preffered to stick to the protocol. This is not that man, despite what the backstory claims. [Actually about the backstory, the potential to do this better already exists. "This bit contrasted with the manga, where Adam if anything suggested Samus leave the military specifically because it hampered her potential."(as the wiki says) This was appearently changed to put in japanese values into the game, but they really did not belong here. It really could have put the melodrama of the game into perspective if their relationship went down like this: After the "big event", Adam suggests that Samus leaves the Federation Forces. Being immature, she is just angry as she goes because she sees this as a betrayal and that he does not trust her anymore. During the events of the game, she still does not understand the reason but knows that it had to have been another reason.(You know, showing maturity about the situration) And she is as compliant as she is during the mission because she thinks she needs to make up for her reaction back then. Right before Adam goes into Sector 0, he could make clear that the reason he suggested her leaving was because reason above.] Except for the moment where he sacrifices himself, his nonsense is just kinda dumb. Right away, he almost seems antagonistic. Sure, someone not called in is not supposed to storm in, but why did we need an "Adam, plz" followed by a surprise monster to get him to jump on the idea. I just feel like a better conversation between them could have been placed here. And his authorization sometimes just makes no sense. I know he told her to not do anything without his command, but the developers did not have to take it so literally. Sector 3 should not have started with him mentioning her current authorizations. Infact, right about 47:27, he should have told her something like "What are you doing!? Your vitals are still dropping, activate the Varia Suit!" to not make it sound like he actively wanted her to get hurt for a while. At 1:02:10, it would make more sense in my eyes if Samus actively did this without being told first and then Adam authorizes the Grapple for the rest of the mission after this goes down. As a last point, Adam really should shoot the Metroid first and THEN immobilize Samus. Not the other way around. -The Deleter. Literally just don't. I don't mean get rid of the plotpoint(though it would be neat if Adam at least says something about it when it gets introduced), but I mean he shouldn't succeed in actually killing anyone. It would make more sense logically if his objective was to dispose of survivors first and people in the know second. Plus, it definitly works out interms of everything else too. MB does not need any other reason to distrust the Federation than her backstory revealed at the end of the game and People could just...die other ways. Maurice kinda could have been explained by him being ambushed by that random rogue metroid in the sector that is never mentioned again. -Samus' reaction to Ridley. We all know the issue, but they really could have done something with this. After her innitial reaction of fear, we could have had a short retrospective of events throughout the series with the endresult being that she just unlocks her full power(Minus Power Bombs) temporarily in rage and goes into the fight with all guns blazing(With a phase 1 where anthony fights with her and a phase 2 after he gets thrown off the plattform in a cutscene). She doesn't have more non-unlocked powers for this game except the gravity? Doesn't matter, give me the Wide Beam,(Which she had in the past, considering the text in fusions claims that it was "recovered".) turn the missiles into Ice Missiles. Turn the Super Missiles into the Ice Spreader. Just give me all that stuff! Though I can understand why they couldn't do any of this even if they wanted, because this game was running short of diskspace already. Anyone down for making a fanremake of this thing? -Ridley's Death. Samus should honestly just fight him a second time, just in a harder fight. Him being killed by another boss is just....very lame.

Definitely my least favorite Metroid game in the story, but man was it worth those 60 dollars regardless when this first dropped. The Ridley PTSD still doesn’t make too much sense to me as this game would take place after the first 3 Metroid games, as well as all the Prime games, so I’m not sure why Samus would be frightened now of all times. Still an awesome Metroid game in it’s own right :))

Not gonna lie, I really did not and still don't understand the hate behind this game. I mean hell it was a fun game that kept me entertained for a long time

Samus Aran: Mother! Time To Go!

5:52 I forgot how pretty this theme music is, and I can't find it in the game's soundtracks at all.

Imagine, in this new gaming generation, having the graphics of that Mother Brain fight, the new Metroid Suit for Samus, and a new evil.

I haven't played this game but I feel like a sequel would be really good (maybe it talks about how the prime games end up linking to metroid 2?)

I feel something weird when i heard words quarantine..

Gamer's Little Playground Is that a red and green Halo!?

Thx for this one.

What's the song that plays when samus is in that one white room right after the Super Metroid ending remastering?

You know some say that Samus narrating this game ruins it, but I say that Samus has always been a brooding character. This game is like she wrote a book about the incident.

Imagine a next gen or a PC version of Metroid. If they made it like the halo infinite campaign, it would possibly be one of the top games of the year

12:27 This is the line that sealed this games fate... Any shred of hope that this game had died here... Such a shame because Samus is such a cool character; she got done so dirty.

Flawed Game? Yeah. Fun game that I still enjoy regardless? Yes.

How are the prime games praised but this is hated? This game is amazing and the story and plot is dope too I see so much character development in samus why do people talk so much shit and hate this

1:34:43 Jesus that screeching was horrific... Sounded like a crying baby

I would've loved to see the Gravity Suit as an Other M suit upgrade. Hated the fact it was an aura.

I think if Other M took place before Metorid: Zero misson, as the incident that led to her leaving the Federation Army, it'd feel a bit better narratively.

One of the most iconic moments in all of Metroid history: 32:50.

This game is amazing, I see that it is a Metroid different from the other games but without losing its identity. A different way of playing Metroid, in addition to being a good game for beginners of the franchise as was my case.

Awesome 👍

Alright n yo samus is the best character of all time n thisbgame it has such great graphic design n movements

I remember when my younger brother got this game, the game couldn’t run on his Wii for some reason.

1:20:20 “Sisuation” :) I love the way Samus talks

I like the concept, its fun if you dont take it too seriously. Why would samus be so stunned to see Ridley? Hes defeated him 4 times already. He was even resurrected by pirates before too. What purpose was Adam sacrificing for? He also left Samus unconscious for no reason just got lucky to freeze the metroid as samus was gonna do the same!? Was he trying to fight mb by himself? I was left uncertain whether there was an impostor or not. Also Mother Brain .... MB, nice one. SAMUS: having a heat stroke Adam: NOW you can use your varia suit......

Anthony was the best part of this game and I love it for that

Tbh this is a great example of how much visual polish can really carry a game.

This one is probably my favorite Metroid game story and gameplay wise. That’s just me though. It fits my preference of gameplay and storytelling is all. For me I prefer games that have a good blend of Movie and Play. It may not be what many people liked, but I enjoyed seeing Samus speak for herself instead of being silent. I enjoyed the fact that even though many people found her plain, she at least had a personality this time. She had her own thoughts on opinions on matters. It was nice to be in her head for awhile and not just behind her visor. I also liked getting a better outlook at her time in the Federation and seeing how Adams does things also kind of explains why Samus is the way she is sometimes. She looked up to Adam as a father figure and even emulates his serious stoic manners sometimes. Especially in past games. Also as a military man myself I couldn’t help but make constant comparisons between my experiences with commanding officers and how Adam did things. For one he addressed all subordinates by first name, which typically doesn’t happen in the Military as I know it. We’re called by our ranks/rates and/or our last names. Secondly while some commanding officers are closer than others to their subordinates we refrain from personal relationships for a variety of reasons. For one it could be considered fraternization which is punishable under the UCMJ. Secondly it promotes favoritism and sometimes nepotism in the division which hinders judgement and can promote hostility between members. It’s very frowned upon IRL. Despite these negative qualities Adam was still able to reach commander at a young age, which can either be a testament to his own individual merit but simultaneously mark out some weaknesses in the Galactic Federations ethics and their own Uniform Code. I was also surprised to learn that among his subordinates was Ian his younger brother. Which in the Navy hasn’t been a thing since the Solomon Brothers died together at sea. Since then siblings, spouses, and relatives in general were kept apart at commands. While Adam may be a flawed character, through him we’re also given an idea of what standards the GF operate on as a military force and while the things I listed were negative, I was still intrigued by those differences. Similarities too. Like having permission to use certain equipment for environmental reasons. It maybe carried out differently IRL, but operations wise it is an important thing that is taken into consideration. Especially during training, maintaining positive public relations, and safety most importantly. Anthony Higgs I think is an awesome addition because up til now I didn’t even know Samus had any friends. That are still alive I mean. His personality I think compensates for everything Samus lacks as a character. He’s also an enigma in his own right. If he shows up in a possible Metroid Prime 4 with an even bigger role, I wouldn’t be surprised. This game also kind of changes how I see Metroids. Not merely as good or evil or even as just monsters, but as simple animals doing whatever they need to survive and thrive. Through the Metroids I also got a look at how lonely Samus life actually is that she would form attachments to one of the very beings she was sent out to destroy. Seeing Ridley at varying stages of his lifespan was intriguing too. After seeing him die and come back over and over it was quite a sight to see him doing that literally instead of just learning about it through logs. Though he did end up dying again, there is no doubt he’ll be back through some kind of mad BS. MB I think could have been written better. I know about Mother Brain from the manga, but MB in this game, while I did find her interesting I also saw her as a failure. I get that she is supposed to be Mother Brain, but I still couldn’t help but see MB as a separate person who was just modeled after Mother Brain. Which isn’t bad, but it does defeat the idea. Nowhere did I feel like she was a stand in for the original big bad. In simple terms, Mother Brain was a psychopath and MB was a sociopath. The difference between them being that the Latter had emotions and the former did not. If anything I’d say MB was pretty much a fusion between Samus and Mother Brain. Which kind of makes sense. As the AI that oversaw her own genetic modification under the supervision of the Chozo, Mother Brain herself is a kind of parent to Samus. In a round about way that kind of makes MB like a sister to Samus. This game also makes me wonder about characters from other games like Sylux and the traitor at the end of Federation Troopers. This is the only game in particular in which I’ve seen the GF go completely against their usual moral ethics that I’ve seen in other games. And it helps me make a list of suspects for who Sylux might be. My biggest primary suspect is Anthony Higgs. One of 3 survivors of the Bottleship incident. While he does appear to be a friend in Other M there’s no telling how much has changed over the years. Higgs isn’t around in Fusion or the Prime games. In other words he likely went his own way. Or maybe perhaps he’s the Federation trooper who stole the Metroid in the GF game as well as the suit and became Sylux. He has plenty of motive. Samus leaving the way she did was a form of betrayal. Although he puts on a smile and charming demeanor I can’t shake the feeling his own emotions were stirred by her presence. They were close friends after all. And even after all that drama Samus still associated with the GF. The later Power Suit models resembling Samus own power suit is proof of that. The Federation betrayed Company 7 and left Samus and Higgs as the only survivors. Then Samus continues to associate with the very organization that stabbed them in the back and killed their beloved leader. I can easily see that turning a kind man mad. Mad enough to hate a friend who’s only crime is by association. The second suspect is Ian Malkovich. Although he should have died then, I can’t help but wonder what if he survived. Ian Malkovich a man abandoned by his brother who would later be named as overseer of secret projects like the Bottle Ship. Who would later lose his brother because of the greed of the Federation. If he somehow survived at all by any chance he would have more reasons than anybody to hate the Federation and by extension Samus who he could probably guess allowed his brother to die. Though all this is just speculation on my part. Make for a good story though I bet for Sylux to be one of those two close friends. All in all I had fun. I think later I’ll check out Metroid Fusion which supposedly takes place next in the chronology of this series.

Say what is flawed with this game, I have, but I wouldn’t trade this game for a “better” one. This game did a lot right too and still replay it from time to time. Not as much as the other Metroid games, but a fair amount. If this game didn’t exist, we would not have Samus Returns, I firmly believe that.

...been playing this game since the first Nintendo

Samus says "the baby" 13 times in this video

I think the voice director specifically told Samus' VA to put zero emotion into every line.

I play it so I wonder if is making metroid other m 2 and prime 4 and metroid prime trigloy full game movie too please thank you so much and I play metroid Samus returns too that is my favorite Nintendo game 🎮 ever

Nice

This is so cool

This game was cool and all but I felt like samus was holding back because she had emotions but in dread she just doesn’t care face to face with kraid and just stares

Why is this the only Metroid game on this channel? You could try the Metroid Prime games?

Nice Game movie we like it. :-)

After watching the ending to other m I can't believe anyone ever thought this is a bad game

but like that baby ridley design tho :3

They should make a Metroid movie some day. Who's with me?

Metriod other M had a sexy Samus

Say what you will about this game, I personally loved the gameplay and story wasn’t too bad (tho I agree that Samus’s emotional turmoil with Adam was overdone for someone we know as strong and silent) and the music was pretty good Also Ridleys theme tho and build up to it

57:15

Were those scenes after the credits the game over stuff?

I get the story wasnt perfect but I personally really enjoyed the gameplay
