Lol, exactly what I was thinking.

The extended boss footage they showed looked tedious as heck. I really hope it's a great game but that video took all of my excitement away. Crossing my fingers.

@@ELCHimoiX1 lmao get over yourself💀

@@ELCHimoiX1 why do you type so fucking weird you gotta be a virgin man🤣

@@ELCHimoiX1 yep for sure you definitely type like a socially awkward virgin lmao you laugh so you don’t seem hurt “hahahahaha.”

agreed

I want to hear him say it more.....

same

LMAO! I both laughed and cringed when I heard him say this. Not sure if I'm ok with it, disturbed, or something else.

Agree! I paused the video just to comment, but thank you for doing it for me.

Yeah I would be hyped for an upres version of Samus Returns for Switch, updated to work with Switch controls vs the dual screen stuff.

You can actually get this game looking clean as heck on emulation, but its never the optimal version to play when compared to playing it on 3DS because of the touchscreen aspects. I would buy this game a second time for Switch if Nintendo decided to port it.

@@ELCHimoiX1 Samus Returns didn't exactly look "soulless." Sure, the atmosphere and feeling was kinda pants like Zero Mission's, but at least it had good backgrounds and animations. Dread, however, has a nice art-style like SR while ALSO maintaining the creepy and lonely atmosphere most Metroids are known for. Hype!

@@ELCHimoiX1 You might have a better picture of this if you weren't busy projecting yourself onto it lol. The tone and atmosphere is clearly different from samus returns, it has more consistent, brooding themery from what we've seen. But we've barely seen anything yet, it's way too early to be making any of these kinds of judgment calls.

Oh my God. I NEED that game NOW!

Gonna guess Jared has yet to go full completionist with Zero Mission if he didn't know. Either that or it's been a while since he played it.

Marche800 so samus actually still has her skin and can be sexy after the horrible surgery and genetic fuckery she suffered in Fusion?

sixstringpsycho Have you ever died in Fusion? She still has the same death animation in Super where her suit breaks.

Seacliff But her suit design-wise is different in fusion. It's not her Zero Suit. However, both designs are in Smash 4.

TheTriforceofAwesomeness nono, I'm asking are the ass and tiddies intact because they are a treasure to this community. Not the main attraction necessarily, but you'd have to be lying if you said you wouldn't be saddened if a body like that suddenly went all Sarah Kerrigan. I mean, at least Kerrigan kept her stacked form, just with zerg complexion and all those insectoid organs and appendages... eugh

I would if I could get my hands on the amiibo :(

Like Sonic Mania, I'm gonna destroy this game until there's nothing left. I'm gonna love this game.

I know I'm going to once I finish up MonHun Stories.

That One Video Gamer i will just to have the extra saddisfaction in Fusion Mode

That One Video Gamer me

Is that a House Party reference? Did House Party exist in 2017?

HAHAHHQAHAHAHAHHAAHHAHHA

Hey also missed the Metroid Prime Rib Pun.

He did for a moment.

Oh hello there. I didn't expect to see you here. I don't know why i replied to a 10 month old comment.

@@elijahlundby6387 I just replied to a 10 month one as well!

Yes

I was hoping for Hamus

Dude yes. Huge missed pun opportunity there!

I get the reference

lol, I miss that bit.

Not at this point, considering this takes place immediately after the first game, she only defeated the Space Pirates alone once so far. Remember, this is a remake.

Incorrect, the entire Prime subseries takes place between M1/MZM and M2:RoS/M:SR.

hmmm, that seems really odd. although in the Prime series, Metroids still live, i thought Samus was then sent to wipe out all the Metroids after her fight with Mother Brain. but then again, in Fusion, the X parasite was only kept at bay thanks to the Metroids.... the timeline is all over the place.

Fusion is fine, since it's at the end of the timeline, and there's no real indication how long the X parasite was infesting Zebes (or whichever planet they infested, can't remember offhand), not that it matters since they could've been in stasis/hibernation thanks to the metroids anyway.

They were on SR388

The problem is that it feels forced or shoehorned into every encounter, and _not_ using it makes the fights take much longer, so it feels like a necessity.

Oh man, if you think this is immersive, you REALLY need to play the Metroid Prime Trilogy. Hopefully we'll see an HD port/remaster on switch - if not, highly recommend picking up a Wii U (and wiimote / nunchuck) and buying it from the eshop. As an added bonus, all of the other 2D metroid games are available there too (super metroid, fusion, and zero mission are also must-plays)

@@aether3885 I want to, but I'm not paying like 300 bucks to get my hands on a collection.

>:(

i hate what amiibos have done to this game...

The amiibos look so good I'm glad we have them. I drink your tears.

Rogers base on the completionist!

Zachary Erickson because some like it difficult. Also fusion suit has less shielding.

And they delivered

@@TheBanishedWind why yes they did

pokemaster361 TRUE not to mention other m

Oh God, those Marines in Prime 3 were so unhelpful. xD And the fact that it basically became an escort mission was a pain in the ass too.

Did you really have to put the link on 9:11 lol

ZL for Morph Ball and ZR for switching Beam modes would actually have been incredible.

Tapping the bottom screen does it.

Randøm Blue Tøad we know. But its not conveniant at all tbh.

Kai SchSp Good point.

Or switched to missiles

Because Nintendo was a dick over AM2R.

Robert Lehto get over it

its called buissness

BlueBitProductions You know for everyone kissing Nintendo's ass your kind of ignoring two things. 1. Before they decided to shut down a fan made game, Nintendo ignored Metroid for SEVEN YEARS and 2. Don't you think it's kinda odd that only they started announcing the new games ( along with forcing the developers to change the remake from Fusion to Metroid 2) after the AM2R got the series notice?

1.they shut it down at that time because they where planning more meteoroid games coming (returns, and prime 4) You do know they start making games years in advance right? 2. OBVIOUSLY they where planning these new releases FAR before that. A game like this takes YEARS to make

Yeah, all the beeps and boops are weaved into new ambient melodies. It's so great.

While true, I noticed the remixes from other games more. Though probably because I've only beaten Metroid 2 once, while I've beaten Super, Zero, and Prime 1 dozens of times

*+Thomas Molina* It also helps that outside of the track "Surface of SR388," the tunes from all the other games were way more memorable than anything in _Metroid II_ to begin with (to the point that they actually feel kind of out-of-place when they crop up in this game, despite how great the tracks by themselves are).

He doesn't have the best ears, he said something similar about breath of the wild.

Jirard definitely goofed the music section. I mean he said the "hot areas" were lower norfair, which they're not. They're actually magmoor caverns from Prime. The only Super Metroid music used was from brinstar.

They have maps at the Metroid Database!

I just want this shirt to be white with a huge stain of BBQ sauce on the front XD

can make your own then.

Mike O'Shea with Jared! /s

Mike O'Shea I'm sad he didn't say "Super Metroid and Super Metroid and Super Metroid" as he was just piling on the bacon strips.

Needs more Super Metroid

not to mention Prime 4

Id love to but its on the 3DS. If it were on the switch (which it should have been) id buy it in a heartbeat

Welp they’ve been given motherfkin METROID 5!!!

Better

oh fuck yes

Yes please!

Remember you need a Kuhh-knife

Heya Tim! How's biz?

Tim! I didn't know you watched this channel. What a pleasant surprise.

*Screw Attack* the puns, FTFY Tim :]

I wish there was just a 20 min video of him sitting there in silence, eating the whole thing.

I copped it. It looks even better in person.

Nana-Kyoto Why would I buy that if the 2DS XL was released about 3 weeks before?

I'm in heaven!

Gravity Falls Canada because 3d is better.

Kauris Azurai Depends on the person. Face tracking 3D doesn't work well with the millions of people with glasses, eye disorders, or simply just have one eye...

Nah, collection percentage is all related to the Chozo memories.

That's a bit of a relief. Getting the 15% under 2 hours on hard mode ending was a pain.

Barcey The Zombie i thought the 15% run wasn't time restricted??

Luis Ullrich My mistake, been years since I played Zero Mission so I had to look up the requirements again. The 15% runs only required to be done once on hard and once or normal.

Either a Skip Sandwitch or a Lucky Sandwitch, however, I believe the best meal to represent EarthBound would be Beef Jerky XD Although there already is an in-game recipe for making jerky. Obtain some type of meat, slice it into pieces about half of an inch thick. Hang the pieces on a laundry line or something like it and leave out in the sun for maybe 6 months... Well, that's what my recipe says. When eaten, you recover about 150 HP.

Mr.Saturn's Mother Burger, a 2 lb Beef Burger topped with salted fries, ketchup, sugar and american cheese, between 2 large pizzas.

A ice cream one

He wont stand a chance

+carsten h. Real talk though, if he recorded his playthroughs, he should submit them to speedrun.com. There are no 100% runs yet, so Jirard could hold the WR for it.

squaswin ok thats true..at least for a few weeks

To do that you will need the metroid amiibo and beat the game on the hardest difficulty in under 4 hours, so.... good luck to ya

Don't underestimate the power of thirst, Dycie

So if I play it SUPER fast will I...uh....you know...

or you could google it

Sadly it's not cool art like the gba games instead it's the 3ds character model :/ still cool metroid one reference

WOLF FORCE is that bad or good for a metroid game?

Nick Dawson well considering metroid games are usually 8-10 hours its awesome

Solid Fox 117 oh never played one so I didn't know

Nick Dawson That's pretty damn awesome.

Nick Dawson I highly recommend you try it

Big Smoke aww that's rough

I like being alive, thanks.

Big Smoke why would anyone do this!? Why did I do this?

You want people dead you sick fuck

take two shots when he says Daddy

Gokou Blacc - Subarashī I would give this two likes if I could. Not enough people know this. During the end bits of the game this is a godsend

Zach B. The game tells you when you get it!

Gokou Blacc - Subarashī Yeah, but people just assume things and end up missing it haha.

Eh, I don't think it's an issue of people not seeing it, I just feel it's a problem of needing to specifically touch the _map_ screen in order to morph that becomes a problem. I have to reach pretty far with my right thumb, off of my jump and shoot buttons, over the beam switch buttons in order to press the map screen specifically in order to morph faster, it's a neat idea, but I feel it should have just been a button I could map. Honestly I used that feature so little I ended up just getting better with double-tapping the circle pad down in order to morph faster, it is by no means simple, it's actually pretty awkward to do, but it's something you get used to and I find it's less out of the way than clicking the map screen.(They could simply remedy this by patching New 3DS owners who have this game so that they can map morphing to one of the triggers, or, and more likely, rebind Aeion to a trigger and map morph to A, it would be very nice)

Zyad48 I use it almost exclusively. It's all about when and where to do it.

Slick Tactics we'd first need a super Metroid remake

gamonstudios why remake a masterpiece?

Solid Fox 117 that's is true

No they should remake Fusion and make it to where you can sequence break without crashing or soft locking the game

johnny elkins that's even better, also i would like a throwback super powersuit for Samus. The unnamed suit was disappointing imo

Nexious Imrex would have much rather seen a remade fusion than metroid 2.

if Nintendo gives them the Green Light on that... Oh what good that day will be

Nah, an updated Super Metroid would be best, NO design or map changes, NO mechanic changes, NO feel changes. Only graphics and pressing a bumper button to change to missiles and Super Missiles, Like Zero Mission

there are ppl doing foods based on games and other media already out there, check out Feast of Fiction.

Sonic Mania As I scroll through the comments the comments become more and more applicable. LET'S MAKE A SANDWICH

Well he is taking a break for a week, so he's certainly not gonna go off the deep end just yet.

game4brains 123 yes he isn't yet but maybe when he tries to complete super Mario odyssey or kingdom hearts 3 that might be when he starts to go a little CRAZY FOR COKO PUFFs

Dark Souls, Sonic 06 or Sonic Boom will be more taxing than Mario Odyssey or KH3, as they wont be new experiences...

The Gaming Paladin good point I'm betting sonic 06 is when he will break

And over 2,860 videos across the six channels, and I didn't count the podcasts on ThatOneVideoWebsite, his twitch streams and his involvement in collabs for other channels... The past 6 years were REAL busy for Jirard!

alouette200 And then there's his music...

DaFro3713 graphics look horrible but if they make if for switch I'll buy it

Jack Pot well that's a let down. And after looking at it, the remake looks more suited for the 3ds, which I wouldn't mind

i am open to it, especially if Multiplayer is still an option, cause SoM is best played with two friends who wont mind playing as girls. because the AI is so.... GAH!!

I personally can't wait for it. Probably because my SNES died a couple years ago and the chances of getting the SNES Classic are slim to none. So, as long as the remake is faithful to the original, I'll be happy to play it.

they should had used the project octopath traveller engine to remake, it along with any other sprite based rpg game like FF1 to FF6 in the future imo.

christian pierce i completely agree.

I just listened to it without watching the video. There's no spoilers in the audio.

In all honesty, I recommend not starting with this game in particular, Zero Mission is a much better starting point Jirard didn't mention this as much in his review, but enemies hit like tanks and can also tank a ton of hits as well, it's not the kind of thing I'd recommend a newer player to start with. Zero Mission is much easier and also is more open and non-linear, but also conveys things to the player better than this game does(that's also another issue this game has, poor conveyance, which isn't an issue in Zero Mission for a standard playthrough) It's a much better starting point for someone completely new to the series, I recommend going with Zero Mission first, Fusion second, Metroid Prime 3 third, Super Metroid fourth, and if you enjoyed those games, give Metroid Prime 1 a shot and if you want after all of that, _then_ I'd recommend Samus Returns, and if you can find a download for it, AM2R(Another Metroid 2 Remake) which in my opinion is the better game. AM2R also got a better balance for difficulty too, the game is by default pretty okay with the difficulty scaling as you go on, but if you bump it onto hard mode, not only do enemies do more damage and take more hits, the A.I. is also improved and makes it _actually_ more difficult since the computer shows better competence. Honestly if I had to put a pin on the issue with M:SR's difficulty, it's got the A.I. of AM2R's easy/normal mode, while also having the damage of AM2R's hard mode on the base difficulty, which in my opinion is just bad design, difficulty should come from enemies having specific patterns or competence with hitting you, not just going a billion damage when they hit you with stupid easy patterns and dumb A.I. It may sound like I hate M:SR, I don't, I'm just rather critical because of what nintendo did with AM2R since I still feel it's the better game, and I'm a Metroid fan who's had their opinion of nintendo soured by what they've done with recent releases, I'm not going to just settle for mediocrity anymore, if there's some kind of issue, I'm going to fucking call nintendo out for it. I like M:SR don't get me wrong, I think this is a pretty great direction for them to take, but it's going to definitely need some fine-tuning and a lot of polish before this new 2d formula really hits it's stride.

thank you. i apprecisate your opinion. im sure most of those games (zero mission esp. ) are on the estore, ill look into it by the time i bet that the new one will be cheaper lmaoo ;) :P

Yeah, hope you have fun playing them :)

Draygone Fuzzbottom yea. fusion ending is pretty sweet but i wont get it LOL. only all item runs for me.

it shows because he had a wonderful time completing it, and the sense of accomplishment that he got from speedrunning this game, reminded him why he is a completionist to begin with.

I saw in his face the same manic energy that possessed me as I was toughing it out my first time in Dark Souls: that ferocious determination to never give up on your goal no matter how insane the challenge is. And I'm so glad that he pulled it off, three times no less! Man, now I'VE gotta do a speedrun of this game, I haven't done one since Fusion and I forgot how much fun they were.
