I can only play a GBA if it's hooked up through a GC to a TV.. my neck cant handle the constantly looking down, and small screens are for pussies. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
just got the rom, was playing it alot last night. i always love a new metroid or zelda |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I played it at best buy, it fucking kicks ass. BUT I cant beat bad Samus for the life of me. I can only freeze her but then she fires at me and by 5 shots im dead (im talking about metroid fusion) they said to run from her so this is my second time running into her and I cant do shit....am I missing something? I know im missing that lightning thing but still can you tell me how i can beat bad samus?? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
there are GBA roms and emulators? where can I find them?? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

"they said to run from her" They were right. But this is an extremely hard (and also extremely fun :-) Don't you just love that adrenaline rush?) part of the game. You're talking about the part where you fall down a screen, and then suddenly she's right in front of you? You've got to freeze her, run to the left as fast as possible. Freeze her again, go to the next room. In the next room stand on the platform and turn to the right... as soon as the enters the room, freeze her again. Put a superbomb by the wall in the middle of the room... freeze her again. After the wall blows up, run as far to the left as possible, until you find a huge pillar where you can hide behind. I could litterally feel my heart pounding when I played this part :-p I CAN'T WAIT to play Zero Mission! I wish they'd release it over here already! hurry up nintendo... please! |

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
Oh shit, I'm going to get the ROM now and play it all night, and weekend if I need to. I read a review in EGM and it made me thirsty for Samus Juice. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|

G33k. It's Friday night, you should be out shagging female bounty hunters right now. |

:( On a more 16-bit note, I completed Super Metroid on the SNES earlier this week for the 2nd time in my life. And I can't tell you how much I'd love a new console with which to play new games on. It's quite depressing really. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
phecks: im home sick and alone with a bad cold or flu or somethin havent eaten havent done nuthin sick bored |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
TELL ME MOREEEEEEEEE I got FF chrystal chronicles |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
how is that? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
AFXnumb.... you're talking about Fusion aren't you? I can't wait to get my hands on Zero Mission - gotta have my Metroid. I'm also already in high anticipation for Metroid Prime 2. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'm at the end of metroid prime right now. i have to get 2 more artifacts then fight the mother of all metroids i guess. i didn't get the 100% though :( it's a good game but i don't know how much i could see myself replaying it. also, while on the topic of videogames. EA may be remaking goldeneye. this seems kind of odd though since it's only 1 console old. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, and so was resident evil, but that didn't stop capcom from doing a remake of it that made you want to burn the original because of how great the remake was. :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ok, i thought i beat it, but now im on this space pirate mission where i am out of my suit with a pistol... which doesnt make sense cuz youd think if you were crashed out on some alien planet with no helmet youd die right? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||

u shouldn't spoil it for everyone |

Metal Gear Solid's remake is just a month or so away, and RE's was successful, so now they're coming out of the woodwork! And I can't say I mind, they've been a smashing success. But it would be better if they put all that energy into brand new adventures. But to their credit, many have tried to top Goldeneye with new Bond games... none have come close. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's a shame that Rare can't get behind the remake of goldeneye, it's just about the only movie liscenced game that hasn't sucked big time, RE:4 sounds very intreresting on the gamecube, especially after hearing about the option of a 1st person view. Also, No FMV with everything rendered on the fly, and no more door loading sequences! METAL GEAR for cube looks nice, but I'm far more interested in the PS2 version which is in the jungle "predator" style. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, shinji mikami can do no wrong with resident evil. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it is way different than any ff on the PS new creatures new game play just totaly different game |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah i beat it on wednesday.. sweet game. nice surprise at the end.. I really enjoyed what they added to the original game (the secret rooms and extra abilities/weapons), but what I appreciate more is how much they kept the same. I loved seeing rooms that I haven't seen in.. 16 years (my god, could it have been that long?!) revamped on the new console. I loved how true they stayed to the original score as well. <3 Good game, good game.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, Metroid is one of those series that rarely ever fucks up. It's one of Nintendo's many first-party holy grails. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeh, the score is sweet. |

A slightly underwhelming art gallery is unlocked (wow) |
||||||||
|
|

|

and the original metroid game. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
My current fav GBA platformer = Castlevania GBA 3, Aria of Sorrow. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ok, I thought I got that for finishing it, but I guess you get it for linking it up also with fusion. Since this is a Metroid thread can anyone here explain to me the correct way to shinespark? I charge up then press down, I flash and then I get confused as to what exactly triggers the shinespark itself apart from the jump button. I'd really like to master it so I can spark in specific directions at will. |

My cousin got it the other day, but I've yet to give it a go. Gotta download it soon. I've got lots of other video game obligations, gotta beat a ton of them before the incoming deluge of powerhouse titles. I prefer the Castlevania RPG side scrollers to Metroid's, though. Fusion was ridiculously easy, except for that fucking Nightmare boss, and I expect Zero Mission will be the same. Nintendo isn't helping their ''kiddy'' image by serving up pushovers... |
||||||||

have you had a chance to check out mario+luigi supersaga? that's not bad at all. |

Just finished Zero Mission for the second time (this time on the GBA though, first time I played with a GBplayer. I gotta say it plays much better with a D-pad than with a controlstick. Especially tapping down twice to become a morphball is annoying with a controlstick. But on the other hand, the location of the L and R buttons on the GBA is not so pleasant). *spoiler alert* Well I'm probably stupid, but I still don't understand the ending of the game. Maybe some explanation at the end wouldn't have heard. What's going on with that huge painting of the powersuit in the ruim where you have to fight the thing with the image of yourself in an orb? As you enter that room you see samus as a little girl holding hands with some sort of monster's claw. And then as you finish the game you see the same painting again. It zooms in and then you see a children's drawing of Samus as a little girl and two bird-like creatures. So... what does that all mean? Maybe I should finish Metroid Prime first and see if there are some more clues there. I've played all the metroids except prime but have never come across bird-like creatures :-/ On the subject of zero mission though: awesome game! You can definitely still recognise the original game... but all the changes they've made have also been improvements imo. The extra bit at the end was also brilliantly done. I guess now I should try to beat it on difficult. |

i loved this game for a few very good reasons ive only ever played metroid (NES) metroid II (GB) and super metroid (SNES), i never gave prime or fusion a chance, too ugly from what i invisioned a sequel to be (super metroid'ish) then came along zero mission, with nicely detailed maps similar to SM, and... AND more exposure of the chozo race, which is what i pondered as a child while playing super metroid. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
allow me.. there was a super metroid comic in nintendo power magazine some years ago. the backstory of samus is that she was in a ship wreck on zebes as a little girl and was raised by the humble chozo race, who spliced her dna with chozo dnz giving her amazing strength and powers, she was fathers by the great old chozo, and he crafted her suit with achient chozo technology. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ugh ugly spelling... dnz - dna fathers - fathered |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

Ceri is right, Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow is tooooo fun. This game was cool too, even though Im very frusterated trying to get all of the extra goodies: missle tanks, energy tanks, etc. I'd say the game is a tad too easy, unlike the original of course. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I see... Thank you very much. That's pretty interesting :-) I remember from the few hours of Metroid Prime that I've played that she was also scanning ancient Chozo lore and wandering around Chozo Ruins. Maybe in a future-episode of Metroid they'll dig even deeper in her past. I'd like that. I guess knowing this makes Zero Mission ending a little better. But some text to explain what was going on would still have been nice. But I'm just nitpicking now... it's the game that counts and that's really excellent. "I'd say the game is a tad too easy, unlike the original of course." True. Those statues that mark on your map where you're supposed to go next are kind of... stupid. It's like they're ruining the fun... the exploration! But it's not that bad. Atleast all the locations they mark are usually off the map in secret corridors. So there's still that element of having to find the secret entrances. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Agreed. Those statues are a little cheesy, they give you too much information. BTW - There are some places in the game that have the blocks that must be broken through with the turbo sprint thing... Anyways some of these places are impossible to pick up that much speed in such a small spot. How do you do it? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Well it depends. There are alot of those places, and they all have different solutions. Altough I probably haven't found them all yet. But you did know (hopefully) that you can also pass through a door without losing speed. So on some occasions you might need to pick up the speed in the room next to the room that has the blocks in it. Alot of those blocks also need to be broken vertically. Sometimes there's one of those "canons" hidden somewhere below it (you go in as a morphball, set a bomb, and then you het launched). Or you can just jump yourself. Did you know that too? Once you've picked up so much speed that you start flashing and can break through walls and so... you can also push down one time and Samus will stand still. And if you push the jump button then she will make a HUGE jump also breaking through those nasty blocks. Well and that's all I could think of :-/ Hope it helps. Something that's been boterhing me: near the start of the game. In one of the first corridors of Brinstar there is an energy-tank hidden in the ceiling. If you stand under it and shoot the ceiling you can see it. But I can never jump high enough to reach it. It was driving me mad earlier today. No matter what I tried I just couldn't get it. And you don't get the spacejump until the very end of the game... so there has to be another way... there has to be! |
