1st for best girl

I could totally get into the Dreadnought mod. Could get into mapping for it, too, if damned to learn that archaic editor. Yet I do great with GtkRadiant/NetRadiant.

GZDoomBuilder and SLADE, if someone could also do the zero suit Mode, gzd now supports 3d models

>Federation force does horribly

God, fuck Nintendo. I guess the Metroid series is officially dead.

>>3494218
Zero Suit was a fucking mistake

Weep.

>Metroid is essentially dead
>All Nintendo cares about is Mario and Zelda now, and occasionally pokemon
I guess Nintendo now really isn't too different than SEGA a few years ago.

>>3495992

and the fans are retard enough to defend Reggie and NoA

>>3496373
I feel like boycotting Nintendo, but knowing me, I'm going to eventually get another Nintendo game or even the NX. Really sucks that Nintendo doesn't just pull a SEGA and embrace the fan game community. Sure SEGA did have that issue with the whole SoR remake, but at least they have Chris Whitehead on board.

However though, Nintendo didn't have the same sort of disaster as SEGA did. With most failures Nintendo had, there were a couple pretty nice successes, SEGA during the second half of the 2000's had the nightmare of a lot of pretty shitty Sonic games and games that little to no one cared about unfortunately. SEGA thankfully came to open up a little more to the fanbase, Nintendo doesn't want to care.

Yeah, AM2R could get original Assets and reworked into something different, but the problem is, it's a Remake of a game that greatly surpasses the original, which was in dire need of a remake as it hasn't aged as well as the other games in the series. The Metroid franchise is dead, Federation force did pretty bad for pretty obvious reasons, might have been a good game but alas it was a game no one wanted, that came out at the wrong time, had it come out after a main series game, it would have fared better, but coming out after a long hiatus killed it and made it suffer Nuts and Bolts syndrome.

She looks cute in that tight suit of hers. I like her in her zero suit than her in armor.

>>3496521
Kill yourself, waifufag

>>3496527
>implying i'm even a waifufag
>implying I would even waifu samus if I was one
>implying stating the fact samus is very cute in her tight zero suit makes you a waifufag
Why you so mad bro, is there something you need to talk about?

>>3496535
Shut the fuck up retard

>>3496536
There is no need to be this mad bro, have some cute samus to calm you down.

>>3495976
>non-linear mode
>new weapons
>a fucking mech
Goddammit, I wish they just delayed it a bit instead of forcing progress to be halted after the DMCA.

>>3496687
Really wish some one would reverse engineer it and implement this stuff into the game... maybe even reverse engineer it and make many metroid games out of it

>>3496687

Stop hating on Nintendo you fgts! They have every right, how would you like it if I stole your shit?

>>3497190
I'd be pretty happy if I made a game and 25 years later, some one did a fan remake of it and it was a thousand times better

>>3497190
Do what Gabe did with Black Mesa and officially release it as a free download, with maybe some edits to it's lore if they conflict with canon.

>>3497190

>>3497190
Nintendrone detected! Commence extermination!

>>3497190

Lemme ask a dumb question: Are there any good Justin Bailey/ZSS sprite hacks for Super Metroid? This one looks like ass.

>>3497185
2D > 3D. This is a fact.

>>3498147
That's the only one.

one more for the shitpot

Being a Metroid fan is suffering.

Y-Faster is a pretty good Mini-Speedrunning-Hack.
You start in a small hub world and you've got one hour to complete the game in any order you want. The only backtracking is when you're heading back to the hub world after defeating a boss.

>A bonus for people exclusive to Nintendo systems to drum up sales is shut down.

What a surprise.

>>3495826
nintendo is secretly based for not stopping them until there was an actual release. kind of like how noa knew about project m and let it be
there's still a ton of other shit that they're fucking up spectacularly of course
>>3495936
>tfw 6 foot muscle samus will never exist again
zero suit was a mistake. that part of the game was fun, but i would trash it in a heartbeat if it meant latex barbie would never exist

>>3500674
muscle samus never existed in the first place.
lightly toned samus existed. and in only one game at that.

>>3500674
>>3500707
I wish nintendo would make muscular amazonian samus a thing.

>>3500707
>>3500835


SM and fusion pretty much stated that samus was athletic

>>3495826

>There were discussions regarding a hard-to-get, post-credits cutscene that would serve to explain the origin of these crystals mostly seen near the end of the game.

>The ending was going to reveal them to be crystallized X Parasites.

Oh shit, that's pretty good

So how exactly is doing a speedball different from a mockball? im trying to get the speedball required item in super metroid redesign's marida. i can do a mockball just fine, but i cant keep the charge from my speedboost. ive read that i have to press jump twice, but i always seem to land before i can do both that and go into morph.

>>3501090
oh nevermind i had to hold jump. brb killing self

>>3501098
>>3501090
You just have to be holding jump when you morph.
This allows you to make short hops by pressing jump twice, which is probably why you saw that you had to press jump twice. You certainly don't, but it lessens the chance of getting caught up on something above you when making a full jump.

That said, Space Jump can royally fuck with the timing when doing short hops. Good thing you can turn it off.

>get to screw attack timer puzzle in redesign: axeil editon
>know that its from longest to shortest
>figure out each switch's timer
>can't make it to the last one quick enough
holy shit who in their right mind thought this was a good idea? I'm legit doing them all in order and I can't get this piece of shit upgrade. I do it every time and I miss it by mere millisecs every time

>>3501942
It's not that bad. Especially once you get Spring Ball.

>>3495976
>>3501079
>New Game+
>Super Metroid style beam combos
>That fucking LOCKED TUBE IN THE DISTRIBUTION CENTER THAT SHIT STILL BOTHERS ME FUCK

>>3496373

nobody cares about Reggie and NOA. most people who are "defending" Nintendo are only trying to say that they still make good games. The game developers have nothing to do with Nintendo's shitty practices and they are often wrongly blamed and lumped together for things they have no control over.

>>3499458
This looks like a pretty cool hack. The bosses seem braindead easy though.

>>3502467
Tell me about it. I took out Golden Torizo with one charged Plasma Beam shot.

>>3502473
I thought it was cute. I got all set up in the usual safe spot and then the fucker just drops in one hit.

>>3502287
what if bethesda is trying to steal metroid with their "Deal" for NX

a new Prime remake made by machine games/Arkane/Id/Retro?

with both fps and classic parts?

Do Omega Metroids in AM2R regenerate health after leaving and reentering the room? Or can i restock my super missiles over and over til it dies?

i'm playing on Hard btw.

>>3505620
The fight resets when you reenter the room.

>>3505620
Every enemy in the game resets when you leave a room.

>>3505585
That's highly unlikely but fuck you for making me even consider this reality.

AM2R Retro Run:
-No Beam Stacking. One beam active at a time.
-Charge Beam, Power Grip, Power Bombs, and Gravity Suit are not to be collected.
--In the Power Grip's case, it is to be disabled from the start of the run.
-Super Missiles and Speed Booster are required to advance in the game. Both are to be used only when required by the game to move forward and are to be disabled otherwise.
-Only Five Energy Tanks and 22 Missile Expansions are allowed to be collected.
--Optional: You can only collect them from their locations in the original game.
---Because you have to collect the Super Missile expansion to trigger the two Alphas at the Research Site, this one is allowed.

>>3506704
I thought you had to use a super bomb to kill the queen? I swear that was what I did. She bit me and I morphed then dropped a super bomb in her mouth.

>>3506756
No. You can kill the fuck out of her before you even get grabbed. A Power Bomb just gets you a mangled corpse, that's all.

>>3500707
>>3500835
6'3 and 200 lbs isn't lightly toned. this art is lightly toned, i'll give you that. whichever one you go with, she's still much bulkier than zero suit.

>>3507605
This sprite is also lightly toned.

>>3507637

i prefer more samus like this rather than the zero suit, it gives more of the Aliens/ripley vibe

>>3507156
How did they expect anyone to find that missile?

>>3508150
I always thought that Fusion Varia suit looked absolutely stupid, what the hell were they thinking when making it yellow and purple?

>>3507149
>>3507150
>>3507156
>>3507158
>>3507160
What is up with the HUD?

>>3509142
A speedrun practice romhack that shows the inputs and some other data, If I recall...

Could anyone point me to the nearest missile refill? I'm in the shaft with the amoeba enemies. There's a few gamma metroids in the rooms to the sides.

Then they did NOT expect people to find it!

Nice fan fiction

>b-but it's from some official nintendo magazine, comic, whatever that's NOT A GAME

Nice fan fiction.

>>3510763
Wow, you're a sharp one.
You can recognize art that was not created officially for a game, but was instead made afterwards for a comic. Good job!
Would you like a gold star?

>>3509104
>purple

uh, anon?

I'm lost in Maridia

Ive explored the map as much as I can and I dont know where to go other than returning to brinstar

>Decide to finally try out Project Base.
>Discover sequence break to Power Bombs on first playthrough within minutes
Feels like the challenge just evaporated.
Makes the 100% less tedious, though, I guess.

>>3511041
Can't you get to the top room and get the upgrade there?
Have you fully explored Norfair?

Why are the physics for Super so goddamn floaty? coming back to it after playing ZM, Fusion, and AM2R is almost painful.

>Hacks that change Samus' death animation to make her nude
For what purpose?

>>3511173

Ive tried, but the doorway is grey, and scanning the walls hasnt revealed any secret passages

>>3510914
The image I responded to it didn't have the purple as the artist knew it was stupid, but the actual Fusion Varia suit has purple

>>3511281
Because of a joke during an interview where the devs stated she was nude during the death animation.
According to said interview, Sakamoto kept a copy of the game with that original animation intact.

>>3511464
I'd befriend Sakamoto just so I can get drunk with him and play that one day

>>3511041

WHO THOUGHT THIS WAS A GOOD IDEA

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

>>3511861

scratch that, it was only difficult because I went for it before getting the space jump

fucking amazed I managed to make it

>>3511861
are you kidding? that's easy.

>REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Oh, you're a retard. Okay. Sorry.

>>3495976

This hurt to read.
