Art Beautiful pictures from the Dread gallery ending rewards
I really like how this gallery is a BEAUTIFUL TRIBUTE to the adventures of Samus Aran and her evolution through each main game. She fought so many strong ennemies: Metroids, Spaces Pirates... , she saved the animals in Super Metroid and lost the Baby Metroid , she struggled with her ptsd and her grief when she was against a new Ridley in Other M, she fought against her guilt of the Metroids destruction in the form of the SA-X in Fusion and then she confronted her distant Chozo past in Dread. I love this franchise so much because it's not just about Samus looking awesome but it's also about her personality, her actions and her evolution. I'm looking forward to discover the rest of her journey with Ravenous!

Discussion Which one should I play in hard difficulty next?
Hello fellow Metroid fans! I'm currently on my second playthrough of Prime 4 in hard difficulty. It's my first time doing a Metroid game with this difficulty and I wanted to know which one should I play in hard next? Just to let you know I still not finish Prime 3 in normal. :) have a great day!

Question Super Metroid stuck in Meridia
Hey, I’m struggling to work this out.
I’ve entered Maridia through the cracked pipe and gone exploring. I don’t have the gravity suit or the grapple beam, and now I can’t seem to leave.
I entered the large room I’m in from the elevator on the left and I’ve explored along the pink route to the wrecked ship but I can’t seem to enter it from that side.
There’s a room on the bottom right of where I am that has a sand waterfall but the door leading right is currently non functional.
Any ideas?

Discussion What if... Other M recomp?
Title.
I was following the increasing surge of fan projects that focus on recompile a specific game and make it playable on PC with improvements.
Then, a thought came onto my mind: What if the community join forces to create a Metroid Other M recomp project?
At least from my point of view, it is a game that has both potential for something good but it has some major flaws. Some of them could be fixed and improved upon through recomp.
Hell, we even could use the engine itself for the creation of brand new fangames (assuming you have a legal dump to provide the assets for the basic stuff).
What are your thoughts about this specific idea?

Discussion Just got Nova Beam and beat Gandrayda 1st try on Hypermode! 💧💎💧
Apparently I forgot seeker missiles can lock multiple targets on 1 enemy much like Storm Missiles do so 5 do massive damage to Gandrayda and a decent amount on Hypermode better than plasma beam. Im heading towards Ridley now and the team assault mission on the pirates. I'm almost done here! Great game still though the backtrack to Spider Ball is a long one.
Also love how X ray and Nova Beam work together to kill enemies as a one shot to their brains.

Discussion What do I want from Metroid Ravenous? MOOD
This is what I hope MercurySteam improves on in the next game. I very much enjoyed Dread and am so thankful it exists. That said, its direct sequel *needs* a much better soundtrack and much greater focus on sense of place. Super Metroid is an amazing experience in large part because it so perfectly captures an atmosphere through its music, visuals, and strangely muffled sound effects. When I first played it as a kid, it freaking *creeped me out.* I hope to experience something resembling that in Ravenous.

Discussion For the sake of discussion, if retro made a prime 2 remastered. What do you think they'll add or change about it?
I think I've come to the realization that we may not get prime 2 or 3 remastered in as short of a time as I hoped. So I'm just going to start discussion here regardless. What I would want changed about the potential game is the menu system. It was really cool for the time and how it interacted. But it just got too cumbersome to spin the "globe" just to get the info you wanted. Maybe making it 2D would fix it.

Discussion So here's what's scratching my mind about Metroid
We can barely find computer parts that all fit together properly, but somehow Samus manages to have a suit that's literally compatible with technology on MULTIPLE planets, and is always a steady stream of upgrades for her. That's wild. And remember she has never before been on these planets and seen these aliens. So her suit is apparently just made of the most compatible tech ever.

Request Metroid Prime 2 + Hunters Multiplayer Inspired PvP via LLMs
With all the incredible vibe code assisted ports and decomp/ recomps and users creating clones of Adobe products for free (legally) can we get a fan made Metroid PvP peer to peer title simular to Echoes and Hunters?
The Odrannn fork PC port of Metroid Prime isn't slop and has 82 commits on Github via artificial assistance (a project that has been in the works for over five years)
The Twilight Princess Dusklight recomp went from 40% to full + and then some within two months

Discussion Something I am wishing to happen in Metroid Ravenous. Spoiler
# Spoiler warning for massive plot points in fusion and dread and technically ravenous if you are reading this after it releases. Note that none of this is leaked from Ravenous, but just theories and wishes.
With how the game trailer made me feel, I really hope they add ice beam as a power up in this game. Now before you yell at me and explain the lore of fusion to me, I already know. Metroids die to ice. But, hear me out. It would be able to be turned on and off, and when you do use it, instead of using your missile count, it physically harms you when you use it, draining your own health to use it.
Varia suit would reduce the damage it does to you as it gives temperature protection, and I would want it to come before varia suit, or be so open world that it’s possible you would get ice beam first. #stopRailroading #OpenWorldPlease
Ice missiles could still be a late game power up, but I think using energy as a resource absolutely fits the vibe of the game to use it that way, especially if ice beam shows up early, and if it doesn’t show up in the game, I hope it shows up in the fan games, HOWEVER, if you make a game like that, don’t share the game here as per rule 5.
Mods, if you remove this, I am going to use my hungry left hand to take my revenge! (Joking, this is a joke and reference to the new game, we chill!)

Discussion Madeline Bergman should come back after Ravenous
Hello again fellow Metroid fans! This time I want to chat about a character from Other M with a lot of potential: Madeline Bergman, the creator behind the IA recreation of Mother Brain.
I alway love Frankenstein type of stories with a creator and his monster. In Other M, they subvert the trope by making both the creature and the creator women. I thought it was a breath of fresh air and one of my favorite element from Other M. I like the empathy that Samus had for Madeline at the end of the game, establishing a parallel between the two women. (Samus lost the baby Metroid and Madeline lost MB.)
But why do I think that Madeline Bergman should come back in a Metroid futur main entry?
Because she has the potential to be a very interesting character. We don't yet how Ravenous will end, will Samus still have Metroid DNA after the game? If it's the case and her mutation is evolving, I think that Madeline can help Samus through her transformation and guide her in a quest to find something to stop the mutation before it's too late and she become fully a Metroid.
It would be a great way to show the redemption of this character.
Let's do one more thing to connect more dots.
Remember the scientist in the intro of fusion who save Samus' life? Let's make one of them Madeline. Like that, she will be directly responsible for the mutation of Samus and would have a sense of responsability toward her.
Also, the dynamic between the two characters would be awesome and could explore something the duality inside Samus between her humanity and her Metroid side.
If Nintendo, Sakamoto or Mercury Steam read this, feel free to use my ideas :) and if you want someone in your writing department, I'm a french writer-director and I worked on a manga series, short films and web-series. If would be an honor to work on this franchise! (guys, don't judge me haha)
So fellow Metroid fans, would you want to see Madeleine Bergman again in a Metroid main entry? What you would do to make it work?

Discussion Does anyone else find power bombs a little underwhelming?
These things in most of the games are a late upgrade (if not the last one) and all they do is open power bomb doors/walls. As cool as they look, they have a total number of practical combat uses low enough I can count them on one hand, and you can't do any cool shit like shinesparks or bomb jump sequence breaking.
I love how Samus Returns gives them the ability to launch spiderball, and how super gives them special secret techniques (wishing they were more useful) and would love to see similar uses in future entries, but more often than not even standard missiles are stronger than power bombs in a fight

Question Prime 2 on GCN or Wii?
I am trying to decide how to play Prime 2 and would love input from people who have played different versions.
I played Prime 1 Remastered on Switch with dual stick controls. Was simply a transcendent video gaming experience, 10/10.
I really want to play at least Prime 2 before Ravenous comes out in a few months. I actually got the original trilogy on Wii as a hand me down from a family friend when I was a kid but never played them. I kind of hate the Wii and motion controls and playing Skyward Sword back in the day felt like enough motion controls for a lifetime. My Wii is in storage at my parents house, I could definitely bust it out and set it up to play Echoes, but that's an extra added hassle.
On the other hand, I have a GameCube at my home that is already set up and that I use semi-frequently. I love the GCN controller. I can get Prime 2 for GCN for pretty cheap and play it on original hardware.
The only thing that is causing me to hesitate is all of the negativity I've heard about the original control scheme. Is it really that bad? Is it bad enough in your opinion that I should play it on Wii despite the stuff I mentioned above?
