Looks like a PS2 game.
I'm ready to be torn apart for saying this.

Nintendo locks background music for empty open world in Metroid Prime 4 behind amiibo paywall

The mental gymnastics in this thread are fucking laughable lol. Can't believe anyone is defending this.

...except you can unlock the radio by 100% completing the area, the amiibo it's just an easy route for lazy (and gullible) asses

At which point there isn't any need for it making it pretty useless as an in-game unlock....except you can unlock the radio by 100% completing the game

I was going to say I knew it was cross gen but didn't realise that included the N64.

Usually when i 100% a game, i had a blast and shelve the game....except you can unlock the radio by 100% completing the area, the amiibo it's just an easy route for lazy (and gullible) asses
so, what's the point to have it unlocked?

True just like in Genshin you can totally get every 5-star character for free too if you log in daily and grind like a full-time job....except you can unlock the radio by 100% completing the area, the amiibo it's just an easy route for lazy (and gullible) asses

Yeah, a full priced game that has unlockable contents you can obtain by playing instead of paying and a predatory gacha that leverages on the FOMO are exactly the same :^)

Yeah, screw playing the game. Remember when we had this type of outrage when the music player, secret ending, and artwork gallery was locked behind 100% completion in Metroid Prime 3 and the Metroid Prime Trilogy? Crazy times.

You can obtain it in Genshin just like I said and you're not paying 70 just to start.

Crazy that fighting games used to have unlockable characters instead of paying for a season pass

Totally. Back then I kept thinking "this is fun, but where's the overpriced figurine I have to buy to unlock the music?" Missed opportunity.

Same, can't believe everything is still not paid. They expect me to play the game I bought to unlock stuff? Devs really don't value our time these days.

GUYS GUYS THIS IS SO MISLEADING!\
HEAR ME OUT, the shitty area that makes you fall asleep in the game has shitty royalty free ambient music that Nintendo sampled for a couple of minutes!
Guys, this is a nothingburger, locking decent music behind ridiculous paywalls is OK, I swear I'm not lobotomized! Listen to this masterpiece:

nothing screams more Metroid than a barren desert with no music, 10/10
how ppl are coping with that and giving this game perfect scores is beyond me, this is far from a Metroid game or a metroidvania game.

'for lazy' lmao
Why do you need to complete 100% of something just to listen a music in one of the worst areas ever?
At this point people already move out, but lets not use logic in this brainrot discussion.

Completing the area ≠ completing the game (which unlocks other stuff regarding the plot)
I agree though, discussing over something which has already started off in bad faith is pretty useless :^)

This is why Nintendo doesn't release their games on PC. It would take 1 day for Nexusmods to fix this.

Good lord, this desert is easily the worst open world area ive ever seen in a video game... even Hyrule Field on OoT is more useful (and we are talking about a 27 year old game!!!).

You trying to hard.
Anyway this isn't cool Nintendo.
But will Nintendo listen to all the flak and make it right?

A quite amazing answer.

Well this actually frames the whole thing in a somewhat lighter way, thanks for the info

Most of the time, you can hand wave these criticisms away because of the limitations of the hardware, but there's absolutely no need for the desert overworld to look as PS2 as it does.

Don't worry, the NPCs will sometimes chat with you in the radio, so you won't feel alone.

100% complete the area to unlock music which you'll never listen to because.......you've 100% completed the area.
This is still stupid.

Why don't we have a thread like this every single time a new Amiibo is released then?
Might be because some are worse than others, but I don't know. It's a real conundrum.
Maybe for you. You seem to be stuck on very elementary concepts that reasonable adults understood and moved on from long ago. Keep fighting the good fight in the battle of relative miseries, though. I am sure you will win through opinion attrition!

It's not just Nintendo. This happens because we accepted it before. I was quite disappointed when I entered a save room in the Resident Evil 2 Remake for it to cut out after 10 seconds. Couldn't believe when I saw a DLC for the classic music, which is just the music let's be honest. I bought it.

No no no, you have a Mario avatar so you're a fanboy that can't cope with reality. Nintendo is the worst. Like fourth reich bad. Just read the thread.
The irony is that the ironic post is actually true.
The mushroom characters, PG8 and 540p resolutions have just done a number on many of you and you don't even get it.

Win? Who exactly is a reasonable adult here?
I'm not sure why me thinking another Amiibo's implementation is a lot worse than this one's, while acknowledging that they're all crap, is somehow bothersome to you. But thanks for rooting for me I guess.
