This was my favorite multiplayer game on the DS. From map glitches to gameplay mechanics, especially the time period it was in! People used to use the power beam in Combat Hall to shoot messages on the blank wall to share friend codes. There were crazy wall/out of map glitches and secrets that characters had. Trace could live through an omega cannon blast in its presence if he stayed invisible in triskelion form. You could punish people who went out the map with an imperialist (the red sniper laser) by aiming down its sights. When the reticle hyper focused on someone hiding behind the wall, the laser would go through the wall, in most cases, when you shot it. (Get wrecked cheaters.) If you used the judicator’s freeze ability with Noxus, there was also a term called ‘shadow freezing’. You aimed at the ground while charging the freezing shot, aiming at the ground towards the direction of a player. No matter how far away they were, if you aimed right, you could freeze people from far away. There’s just so much, yet so little you’d find online about it. I wish they’d remaster this masterpiece for handhelds or even other consoles, possibly make it a runnable game on a software like Dolphin. (Like how people run smash bros. Melee on their computer.) Heart-Achingly Nostalgic.
My favorite was playing the prime hunter game mode, playing anybody but Weavil, but then using his cannon. You still have the faster shooting speed because you're not Weavil, but you get his affinity bonus of more damage and EXPLOSIONS! SO MANY EXPLOSIONS!!! It was so op but I've never seen anybody else use it.
I remember playing this game with mates via wireless play and owing them . It's a really well thought out and put together game. I've not played a better shooter on a mobile platform honestly. I used to love sniping my mates with the sniper (I think it's the red beam) oh good old days. They need to re release this game in HD with better graphics and larger multiplayer capability. There just isn't a solid first person shooter on the 3DS atm. The PSvita has the kill zone mercenary and it shits on any shooter on 3ds
this speedrun is so absurd and yet i love it. theres a new thing that baffles me around every corner, from clipping into a wall, decimating an arena fight with just morph ball boosting, bomb jumping through a boss, and even rocket jumping. this entire run perfectly encapsulates what i love about TAS runs, and also kinda shows what i didnt know about this game, despite playing and adoring it an unhealthy amount.
It may not be the best experience for Metroid for a DS, but it's sure as hell better than Federation Force. I'm glad I'm able to cherish what I had back then. ☺
It's still light-years better than those two pieces of shit games that came after Prime 3. Other Melodrama and Federation Farce to which IDK what game is worse to play. The unplayable Chibi garbage with DOA online or that Metroid Prime retconning fanfiction that turned Samus into a pussy with daddy issues as well as making Adam Malkovich an absolute asshole to Samus that he almost got her killed TWICE (Once in the lava sector by telling her to activate her Varia Suit after she already ventured through it and letting that infant Metroid nearly attack/kill her after shooting her in the back...FOR NO FUCKING REASON!).
@@PBJA89 I'm not going to defend Other M, but Federation Force really isn't a bad game, it's just not a proper metroid game. If you can accept it as a mission based co-op FPS with metroid prime style gameplay- it's actually pretty cool. I would even argue it has the best combat of all Prime games, enemies have localized damage and weak points, plus there are way more weapons and tools you can use. That being said I don't think it's really worth playing solo, but it can be a lot of fun with other people. Pretendo doesn't support it yet, but I will jump back in when it does
Two things that always bothered me about this game is that when you are in outer space and looking at the planets, the sun on the map/bottom screen is not aligned with the real sun/top screen, and the other thing is that there is an unused oribital. But godamn, you just broke this game beyond belief.
That's not the end of its shitty design. The fucking Chibi graphics for Metroid is just as insulting as Other M's terrible fanfiction writing and there's a literal stonewall part of a mission that you get jumped by Space Pirates to defend some tower that you can't beat alone (I tried when I curiously bought and then thankfully refunded that POS game) because it's rigged for Co-Op...which was dead on arrival like that game. You can't even beat that goddamn game by yourself anyway so it's unplayable up to a certain point and it's very early in the game too.
I remember I would bring my Nintendo DS and Hunters to so e summer day care thing when I was 7 and play this game against all my friends there. It looked so high quality at the time but wow it looks low rez by today's standards. How the times have changed. Still one of my favorite Metroid games, though
now you see why the Game Corner was closed in Pokemon. it was too op. it's so fun seeing this game ripped apart after suffering through it and completely understanding the game.
This was a TAS so it was recorded on emulator using the built in AVI/WAV recording options. You can also find DS hardmods out there that will modify DSes for screen capture.
Huh. So in this version of events, Spire, Sylux, Noxus and Trace got the coordinates mixed up and ended up on the other side of the galaxy. Or we just skipped past them without them noticing.
Bad ending? BAD ENDING?!?! I can't believe this shit this is some serious shit I've waited my whole life for this TAS (Tool-Assisted Speedrun) to be finished and this is how it ends a glorious shitfest of disappointment absolutely unbelievable nobody cares about the bad ending WHERE IS THE CLOSURE?!?! I wasted so many years waiting for this moment and you completely ruined it for me all of my dreams sacrificed dropped out of college quit my job and left my family behind me all in the hopes of one day seeing the treasure of my favorite video game Metroid Prime Hunters (For the Nintendo DS™) completed in the fastest! possible time! nobody can beat it faster this is the absolute the alpha and omega of speed completed in the most perfect way possible with the good ending but now there is only sadness and so we move on
I can't believe I ended up watching the whole video. There was just something about it that made me continue. I think the speedrun is good and I am simply amazed by it, and that you have completed the game at least four times (I assume). Though, there was just this one thing that kept annnoying me. The fact that you didn't pick up every single missile expansion (or whatever they were called) and the energy tanks, and avoided faraway places to get them.
The glitch where you keep moving for a tiny bit after collecting that artifact? I discovered that by just playing it. Collecting one by being in morph ball form and seeing what happens. Doesn't have to be that specific one. And I saw that it kept my momentum as it automatically had me stand up
No cheats were used, but this is not human play. This is a tool assisted speedrun, or TAS. I used emulator tools like frame advance to play the game better than any human could, but I did not alter any code to do so. Read tasvideos.org/WelcomeToTASVideos.html
lol no human being could do this real time. I used an emulator and tools like frame advance and savestates to make this video. Thus Tool Assisted Speedrun. Go to tasvideos.org if you want to find out more about tool assisted speedruns
aaahhh now i understand. cool. i just bought this game and it seems cool. not to crazy about the backtracking at end of the levels. Reminds me too much of a Halo level i got stuck on because everything looked too similar. well im having fun anyway playing a bunch of old DS games that aren't Mario, Zelda or Pokémon.
I played this game and I personally don't like it. I don't like other FPS games also, just hate to move around and rely on 90° vision with cunning controls. I can play Super Metroid, Metroid Fusion and Zero Mission thousands of time but in this case, I don't wanna play it again anymore.
I like this game but never finished it due to the awful controls. I forgot just how much they spammed timelimits and escape sequences for no reason in this game. It'd be great if nintendo Remaster all 3 Prime games and this one to fix the god awful controls.
Wtf a game I play for 10 years (I played it 100%, played online with real people, glitched myself through so many sections in the campaign) has even more glitches than I ever seen in a game wtf hahahaha I'm so buffed cuz this looks cool af... but why has he so much lock on on doors and enemies and why can he use the boost so often and without bugs... I play this game for 10 years now I can't believe that this is legit with no aim bots and so on. But is this legit?

There was something cool about the multiplayer maps being based on campaign locations, and you know it.

Jesus christ i thought this game was more solid than that
they should make a remake / sequel of this game on new 3ds or maybe the switch
MogGuerro THIS! + with balanced multiplayer and no cheats and no fucking action replay
what about metroid prime 1, 2, and 3?
Rushin / SunDiegoRussia i used to abuse the fuck out of action replay tbh
Fly around above the map, raining missiles down onto everyone lol
MogGuerro the sequel is called Metroid prime 2
9:57 something about how sudden it all was broke me. This did it. Not all the hunter fights, or clipping, just pure simple cutscene skipping 😆
32:41 so good
I was mesmerized! Really well done!

Sick vid, Subbed!
meanwhile people complain about too much oob in Prime and Echoes ...
great TAS MG !
One way to tell if this is emulated is the distortions at the planet selection screen.
There is also the fact that this is a TAS which means of course it's emulated
***** Of course. I was mainly talking about the quarks of emulation.
THE GAME LIVES!
now you see why the Game Corner was closed in Pokemon.
it was too op.
it's so fun seeing this game ripped apart after suffering through it and completely understanding the game.

Why does this gun emits portal gun's sounds?
Its me or one of the parts of a planet uses a phendrana remix from prime?
Arcterra is deliberately a remix of Phendrana. Additionally the "Spawn Battle" theme is a pretty obvious remix of parasite queen
Wow you beat celestial archives 2 in under 7 minutes
How did you record this gameplay? Researching ways I can livestream/ record playthroughs of older titles on DS and such?
This was a TAS so it was recorded on emulator using the built in AVI/WAV recording options. You can also find DS hardmods out there that will modify DSes for screen capture.
Hey MarioGalaxy243g5, Just wanted to let you know I subbed.
I would like to see this game remade for Switch.
23:33 gave me a good chuckle. 🤣
The Celestial Archives is called Ceres Station in the Japanese version? Isn't that confusing? lol

He got a point
lmfao this looks so crazy and i'm only 4 minutes in
why is it paused when passing the second door everytime? does it make the process faster?
The second door is when the game actually loads the next room and pausing reduces the wait by a couple of frames each time
Memory TAS oh so quick answer! Thank you
Why the pauses i dont understand them
Pauses reduce lag which allow for faster loads
