There's a theory that Sylux is actually Samus' brother that she thought had died along with her parents. I hope it turns out to be that if only to see if it's possible for Samus to share a moment with her actual family

@@connorhilchie2779 Samus having a brother is only mentioned in the manga, so it’s not canon. And I certainly hope that Sylux is not Samus’ brother, Metroid does not need a Star Wars-plot twist.

i think it has the potential to be done well

Finally, someone who's not out of their F mind (ie wanting Sylux to not be some lame-o human, let alone Samus's long lost non-canon brother from a 30-35+ year old fan-fiction, or Adam Malkobitch's ghost little brother from freakin' Other M of all godforsaken places) ! And yes, hopefully Sylux is a tad bit more than just some 100% evil villain we end up killing at the end or in a sequel. I mean, if the game lives up to the OG trilogy regardless then fine, but it'd still be cool if Sylux's goals/motivations aren't completely villainous and we team up against a common threat by the end of the game or something, that'd be a fresh change from Dark Samus or Ridley. As for what Sylux might be, I think the most likely/realistic/not totally ridiculous possibilities are either some form of AI (probably Aurora Unit) uploaded into the suit, or a human-alien hybrid (probably metroid x Samus DNA). For the former, I'm guessing it'd be an Aurora Unit that opposed itself to go forward with some sketchy experiments the GF were up to (one of them being the stolen prototype gear Sylux uses) and so it "went rogue", stole and took control of the suit by uploading itself into it and is now trying to bring down said GF's experiment(s). For the latter, I'm thinking a Samus DNA x metroid hybrid abomination escaped from a top secret GF lab, essentially a human shaped metroid. The "perfect organism" if you will (the power of a metroid, the ability of a human, the intelligence of both). Maybe the GF wanted to create their own one-(wo)man army Samus-like super-soldier and so they created this metroid hybrid using Samus DNA as the basis for the human part + they made a suit for it which mimics Samus's with its own "morph form", weapon, ship and everything.

Bruh. Sylux was in metroid prime hunters. Go check it out. He also appears briefly in metroid prime 3 and federation force.

@@Retarded_Ape I think he means he wished Nintendo would re-release the older titles on modern hardware. Not everyone has a 20 year old handheld laying around to play an 18 year old game. Granted he could just do what most people do with old games and emulate them.

Agree. But they could inject some context into this game as well. Remasters for 2-3 would be nice tho.

Probably Ridley again or perhaps Weavil, but I honestly hope it’s a new character leading the pirates this time.

​@@KrillosRidley isn't leading the pirates it's other way around

@@badboy-gn8fu Ridley is a military commander of the Space Pirates. Seeing as the pirates are in disarray after the events of Prime 3, Ridley might be calling the shots this time (if he’s revived again).

Sylux probably

Tanabe himself was the one who confirmed it in 2015, so it's not really a fan theory.

@@jaimiranda8563 Oh.

I hope your favorite male protagonist gets replaced by a female one

@@Thechinkillsmy favorite protagonist is Pat from the movie Pat

Yo, if you are watching a metroid trailer and thinking about identity politics. Seek help.

I honestly would rather we get a multiplayer mode like in Hunters that lets us play as the other hunters, including Sylux.

@@uberhuber7903 If some rando's take on youtube triggers you that much. Seek help.
