This is a reminder that Samus Aran is canonically a woman of average height with severe emotional problems that manifest in what can be reasonably called "daddy issues." She also joined the Galactic Federation military somewhere between fourteen and sixteen and quit not much time after, so that her father figure whom she bases everything around was only that father figure for at most two years or so. Also she is eighteen during her many adventures even though she is a veteran of a thousand battles and all of that. Finally, she likely has taken massive head trauma that forces her to forget that her archnemesis' main gimmick is coming back to life whenever he dies, which is the only reasonable way to explain why she is so surprised at Ridley in Other M.

With all of that said, seeing Samus as a severely traumatized and injured would-be bounty hunter who gets by mainly because of the power of her equipment is probably not what Nintendo intended.

Can't you just imagine it. You slowly slip Samus' zero suit off her hips, but instead of human hairs marking her most precious place, a tiny, well groomed mound of soft feathers, brilliantly gold in color, meets your eyes.

Samus blushes, begging you not to look at her deformity, but instead of looking away, you brush you cheek ever so softly against them. The soft down tickles your skin, and Samus visibly shudders at your touch. The silky feel of them is intoxicating. After several minutes of touching, as Samus becomes hotter and wetter, you take a sudden initiative and whisper a request into her ear. Her eyes widen with shock, but she nods, and with astounding speed and dexterity, you pluck one feather out. She winces, but she's so senstive at this point a little fingering calms her back down.

You take that shining blond pubic feather and proceed to trace every inch of Samus' body with it. Along her legs and thighs, her inner arms across her neck, her eyelids, her ears, every crevice is explored. When you finally return to the feathers origin and, ever so gently, brush it across her clit, she finally can stand no more and comes all over your hand...

AND THEN SHE PECKS YOUR EYE OUT WITH HER FUCKING BIRD BEAK CAW CAWWWWWWW

Dunno. I always thought that if I really wanted to play that I should just get a Nintendo console, they're relatively cheap.

If you read the interviews around the time Other M was released, especially the Iwata Asks interview, it's pretty clear that Sakamoto knows shit about his own franchise.

All of the games are good and worth playing. Don't at all worry about chronology, that doesn't factor into the gameplay at all.

Super Metroid and Zero Mission are a good place to start, they're generally considered the best. After that, there's the first two, which many people find overly difficult and aged (although I love them) and Fusion which many people find too linear (although I love it). Entirely depends on what you like in a game.

The Prime games are long for the series, each of the 2D games can be beaten in a few hours, so there's not a huge time investment.
>>
The first game is a classic and no-joke, my favorite game in the series. Love the map, the music, the difficulty - just about everything about it. Wonky jumping physics aside.

Metroid 1-3 might be one of my favorite game trilogies out there.

I personally love it. It's not really the same style of game though, it's a super dark action shooting game, and it has a very depressing atmosphere.

Personally I think some music could have done it good.

Still awesome, though. It just bothers me that Metroid pretty much stole its ending entirely, and was the one to get famous for it. Especially since Kissy doesn't actually strip to underwear at the end of Baraduke, she just takes her helmet off. So if feminists used it as an example instead, they wouldn't have anything to complain about.

Some of you anons better be back here with some completion screens pics at some point!

Anyway, just for the record, you really don't need to play Metroid 1. Believe me, I would NOT be telling you this if I didn't think it was completely fine, I am a total chronological-order-purist.

But seriously, unless you REALLY want to see the stuff they updated from Metroid 1 to Zero Mission (the remake), it's not important. You can just play Zero Mission.

But still play Metroid 2 though. The movement is much more tolerable in that one.

Also, try not to spoil anything. The games are not that story-heavy, but man, when there is story, it's rad. It's also MUCH more effective if you don't see it coming. So try to be careful.

Good luck my friends.

Also, I think it's cute when her own face flashes on the screen, but I can't figure out exactly what triggers it.

It seems to happen most often with the Chozo Ghosts

Also, am I the only one who is sort of confused by the Chozo malarky? I've only been skimming the Chozo scans, but it looks like they could see the future and forsaw some great evil, so they built this huge fuckoff temple for the hero who would eventually defeat it?

It's when very bright attacks happen very close to you. Face a wall a few inches away and shoot a charged shot at it.

And the lore is all foreshadowing the ending. They didn't build the temple for Samus, that's just where they lived, but they knew she would be coming to defeat the not telling you, wait and see

Onscreen white text implies the game has a good checksum. If you play romhacks you will usually get a yellow text (due to soft patching or hard patching)

http://youtu.be/yB317FOcU0Y?t=6m54s
>>
>>256875626

Notice how Samus appears transparent? That's because the video is 30 fps, while the game flashes at 60 fps. Interpolating a frame of Samus being fully opaque and a frame of Samus being fully invisible gives the effect of Samus being 50% transparent. This is the exact effect the game was trying to achieve in the first place, but couldn't because of SNES hardware limitations.
>>
All I wanted from Sakurai was solid confirmation with no shadow shit about you know who. Even if just a boss.We didn't even get that. I'd have rather been 100% blown the fuck out than to constantly be ignored. At times I feel like I fell in love with the wrong damn franchise. Don't want to know how F-Zero, Mother, Star Fox bros feel.
