he's clearly at the first part of the game.

only reason to play the original is for the sequence breaking and the extra shit it had back when GBA+Link Cable was still relevant.

i'll never understand why they patch it out on the Trilogy version.

If you're talking about Fusion suit, it's available in Trilogy in a much easier way. Getting a GBA cart + working GameCube + Link Cable is a pain.

The original Metroid is removed though.

Since when is the pointer motion controls?
Did you try turning free aim lock on off?
Are you trying to say that a single stick for moving and aiming is better than a movement stick and an aiming pointer?

The game doesn't run on a console emulator. Its just an executable you open.

/m/ has Metroid threads?
>>
>>340354220

The fusion suit was a dumb gimmick, I did it once and never bothered again

Also the original NTSC version of the game, on top of having all of the sequence breaks, has pre-rewrite lore

Motion controls trumps all of that, though
>>
>>340356609
Of course it does. Metroid is /m/ as fuck.

nigga, they love the suits Samus wears in every game especially in Prime 2 and 3.

what do you think?

Yeah, a homebrew program for the PSP lets a PC see it as a controller over USB

It is already
But we can fix that


>ITT Ideas for a new 2D or 3D Metroid

I'd still rather use my DS3 tho.
Of course the default controller the game sees is a 360 controller.

>>340356729
fuck you, i'm sick of the crap that comes in common "in-general" Metroid discussion in /v/. even 8/v/ has it a bit better with the waifufags being mild as fuck, dubposters destroying shitposters and GY_Sybb automatically told to fuck off to the /vidya ass/ board.

i even have to just take a break and discuss other shit in other /v/ threads (like Kirby or Megaman)

Metroid general, to other boards, or nothing

Is there anyway to play an emulated version on PC that let's use a mouse for aiming?

I'm guessing a hack of a wii trilogy version that somehow maps the motion coordinates to mouse movement.

I've looked but never found anything useful. :(

Combat is solid

Scanning and lorefagging is tons of fun

Bosses are gud

Atmosphere and level design is top notch

Music goes well with everything and is memorable

Story is vague, yet somehow easily followed throughout

I don't know about anyone else, but the motion control morph ball jump was a godsend against the Spider Guardian. Being able to jump without waiting for a bomb made everything so much less tedious.

Samus goes AWOL against the GF after the destruction of the BSL Station. The GF hire a bounty hunter known for hunting down some of the most powerful criminals in space to bring Samus in. The animals in Samus ship lead Samus to an ancient Chozo planet that is far more old then Zebes or SR-388 and has a massive Chozo city that is still active. The GF have found the planet already and have built facilities on the planet. All hell breaks loose on the planet when the AI of the planet becomes corrupt after years of isolation and take over massive Chozo machines found on this planet and every planet with a civilization in the Galaxy. Samus must stop this AI find out her true destiney and fight the bounty hunter who is after her. Will she survive?
