the baby (last) metroid that samus saved in another game saves Samus right before Mother brain is about to kill Samus.

It covers Mother Brain's head right after she charges her hyper beam and is about to shoot Samus, absorbing all of Mother Brain's energy. At this point mother brain is dryed up into a statue.

During this time, the Metroid flys over Samus and releases all it's the energy and gives it to Samus, as mother brain is slowly coming back to life. Just after the Metroid is done powering up Samus, it gets shot and killed by mother brain.

Now Samus is restored and ready to fight mother brain with her new powers.

One thing that makes this scene stronger is that on our way to this fight, we see all the creatures that the Metroid has fed off of to survive and grow into the huge size that it is

You are basically a God, bringing back life to the surface world. That earth is a hollow earth, and you come from the hollow / darkness part.

terranigma is, and always will be, a very low quality soulblader

the 5 games in the actraiser series are roughly

soulblader>actraiser>>illusionofgaia>>>>terranigma >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>actraiser2

I don't consider this opinion to be revolutionary or even particularly interesting

I can just never figure out why anyone likes fucking terranigma so much. its just so boring, slow, ugly, and weak compared to the rest of the series

I suspect it's the same endless resonation of faggots who like games like planescape or la mulana, they have no experience at all, so they just slobber out the same 'good' games endlessly, and this will continue until they die because they're too lazy to try new stuff, especially 'old' new stuff

That part was pretty cool as a little extra touch to the game. But when it prompts you to huge, by that point I had been so conditioned to just give characters all the affection they crave for the best ending, that I only hugged him out of obligation to complete the game. In a weird way, that moment is like the inverse to the idea that chara is only killing to get everything out of the game. As I'm only loving to get everything out of the game.

It's not emotional. Its a clever use for a SNES game but its just about as emotional as emotional as people claim Mother 3 is when its nothing more than just a bunch of random bullshit.
>>
Is Chrono Trigger worth emulating on DeSmuME?
>>
>>343009669
There's discussion about that in the lore.

The super metroid is noticable in that it does not seem to grow through the metroid life cycle like the others shown in Metroid 2. Instead, it simply grows to a massive size.

It is suggested that perhaps this is either because it is not the Metroid's native environment (which would explain the appearance of the Omega Metroid in Fusion and the Queen Metroid in Other M considering those environments were simulations of SR338), or that it simply didn't have enough time to grow into another form.

Another theory is that the baby metroid was scared, terrified even - having been taken from it's (imprinted) mother and experimented on, it broke free of it's bonds and went on a killing spree.

This would explain why the Super Metroid initially attacks Samus, only recognising shortly after who it was attempting to absorb.

The Super Metroid did not only sacrifice itself to save YOU, the PLAYER, but it do so as an act of loyalty.

It's pretty good. FFVI's opera scene, Earthbound's ending, and Shovel Knight's dream sequences are other good examples.

Nope, just reformatted the aspect ratios for the DS and added a map gimmick for the second screen.

>>
>>343012540
If you think Terranigma is slow, then you have never played the version of the rom with the fixed region.

Terranigma is an PAL rom. Which, when put on a standard emulator, is going to run slower than intended. You need to get a patched version of the rom that makes it NTSC compatible. That will allow it to play at it's intended speed, which is faster than you're familiar with.

Right? Watching a father and mother sacrifice their own lives to save their son holding hands in the afterlife.

Watching your wife die in your arms and using the last bit of your own life to save your son only because the memory of your wife esentially allows you to die to do it.
