Metroid Other M |OT| You're Not Supposed to Remember Him

I think I'm going to ignore the Manga altogether. The "fact" that the chozo created the metroids makes too many plot holes. I wonder if they'll try to either plug those holes or better explain that in Other M. I also wonder if fusion will ever have a sequel because of the strange changes and once again supposed extinction of the metroids.

How the hell did Ridley survive Super Metroid. I finished it yesterday and you blow him up and he falls to pieces. Then you blow up the planet his remains were on. :lol

Ah, ok so I didn't miss something.
I was thinking the federation get his body after the battle in super metroid, and now other m maybe.

You'll have to wait for The R Memoirs new side story to find that one out. It actually takes place between Fusion and Metroid 5. Here's a little hint though:

They're all liek clones of Master Ridley1!!!!one!11!

Other M is before Fusion.
Metroid cells for the X vaccine were in Fusion...heck
metroids were in fusion

I never believe the games when they says "last metroid" lol
But it's fun to keep wondering whether they'd actually make a main metroid game without metroids.
Fusion spoilers below. For you sorry people who haven't played it yet.

Fusion is the first time Samus encounters any metroids since Super Metroid, there's a reason the restricted cloning facility in fusion is restricted, officially, metroids are extinct

I figured that as well or he escaped, after being blown to pieces or in Other M we find out that Super Metroid never happened and that it was all a dream.

I am interested in this theory and would like to subscribe to your newsletter.
 
The R Memoirs, narrated by Ridley in his true voice (Ridley's voice is a mix between a 1930's gangster and a Flinstones pterodactyl can-opener).

Luckily Nolan North's less famous brother Peter North does the voice in the localized version of the game.

I honestly don't care what the story was before, this game needs Metroids.
I agree, a Metroid game without Metroid isn't a Metroid game. That's like a Zelda game without Zelda or a Mario game without Mario.

Fucking shit, I saw the live actors commercial and it got me fucking pumped. The music is great and the general tone and cinematography is neat. FUCK now I want this game really bad. I hope the music is really good in this game. I believe in the gameplay, I like the graphics enough... The music will be a dealbreaker.

The only other game that didn't have Metroids is Hunters... we all know how that played out..
 
Gravijah said:
hahaha quit playing.

there are no female protagonists in video games! and where are her boobs and revealing clothing????

I like my women dumb, distressed, and exaggeratedly proportioned in the only two places that matter. This doesn't sound like this is my type of game.

Pass.

It wasn't a good Metroid game, but it was still a good game.
Would have made a killer new IP for Nintendo.
Multi maybe...

SP was god awful.

Reminds me of SF:A

Edit:

Wait I think it did.

Anyway I already said it but I'm gonna say it again, MPH is a bad Metroid game, but a good game in itself.

How does the Chozo creating the metroids create plot holes?

I think Sakamoto said that Fusion is the end of the story. It wouldn't make much sense to set a game after it anyway.

Damn that demo. And the Metroid Prime Trilogy is still being sold here; I guess I should catch a copy and sell it for double or something but I have every game, and I'm afraid I won't be able to sell it :lol

On another note: <---- I'm joining the Metroid avatars!

I thought I read an interview once where he said he needed to tie things up with this game so he could move on to an actual sequel to fusion.

I beg to differ.

I've just experienced a couple of really frustrating bits in fairly short order. Otherwise it's tough but fair.

There is going to be an unlockable super hard classic Team Ninja mode or something right?

MPH was always meant to be a limited run... It had nothing to do with sales.

I meant to say MPT.

Tell us if it requires firmware 4.3! Or is Nintendo not even letting you folks do that?

Are you playing it? :O Is it good? This is a very important question :O

Actually, OP is not really review updated. Are there any reviews out yet?
 
Wow I just saw the ad for this game on my local sports radio station's webpage. Interesting to see Nintendo branching out like that.

I want one like that too :O

Also Prime Hunters was a cool game both offline and online.
Come on, it's better to put NST on work on things like that instead of Mario vs. DK...

So yeah, Other M, Other Mother maybe the secret girl is actually another 'mother' trying to raise a baby Metroid. I dunno I'm just throwing theories out there.

That could work too. A Metroid in it anywhere would be awesome. Otherwise I have to think of a cool new Metroid avatar to use for awhile.
