    I've always loved the mother brain boss fights. Imagine being the galactic federation and wanting MB dead
    You have to storm a brutally harsh planet (zebes) survive the acid rain, the deadly native creatures being manipulated by MB to be more aggressive, fight through treacherous caverns, possibly swim through a lava lake, kill multiple space pirate leaders, survive a hoard of metroids and then still have to fight your way through her zebetite defenses/ringas/Cannons to even be able to fight her at all. Only samus could have stopped her.. let alone twice

      @@fusionwing4208 Been a bit since I played Prime 3 Corruption, but I don’t think the Auroras are straight up copies. Rather, built off the same technology, reversed engineered from Mother Brain. Basically the Federation reverse engineering Chozo technology for their own purposes.

      They're not mother Brains, but it's made clear that it's the Federation's attempt at making something like mother brain (because mother brain is chozo tech).

    I hope the Metroid Prime Trilogy gets a HD port for the Switch eventually, or atleast HD Remasters of Metroid Prime 1 and 2 Echoes for the Switch since as that former Retro Studios Employee said last year Prime 3 Corruption would be hard to port on the Switch due to its motion control issues.

    I love how you included the little flashback at the start of super Metroid. That is done well mate. Also god damnit, I have never seen any video about mother brain fights that included the warioware one. Really great video, especially for including references From entirely different games (like WarioWare and SSB), and also cutscenes and flashbacks. Also, literal pictures inside Samus returns that show a single scene from a Mother brain fight? That's so good.

  • @TheFlyingslug
    @TheFlyingslug 4 месяца назад +5

    I find it absolutely fascinating that there's no explanation given to what the Central Units actually are. Obviously they resemble Mother Brain in both appearance and mechanics, firing off those energy rings, but what *are* they? Why do they resemble Mother Brain, why are they necessary for the EMMIs to function, and what is the source of the power that transforms Samus' arm cannon?
    Such a weird enigma that's just plopped in the middle of the game with no explanation whatsoever, and I find it utterly fascinating and hope they get some sort of explanation in future titles.

      @@VladTepesVladTepes The problem that the majority of fans have with Other M isn't the gameplay experience but the story and portrayal of Samus herself.
      Federation Force received mix reviews, noting the worse part of the game was the visuals and some redundant gameplay/ lack of depth, but not a horrible experience at all.
      There's no reason to hate on these games. Everyone has an opinion and it's okay to disagree. Fusion has always been my favorite game in the franchise, and for a long time many people hated it just because sequence breaking wasn't an option and the game was "too linear". 20 years later it's finally getting the respect it deserves as one of the best entries in the series.
      Please don't be toxic man. This fandom doesn't need to be like others out there. We're better than that. Those games are just fine. Other M can be respected for the lore it adds to the series, and Federation Force should be revamped.

      My two gripes against Metroid Other M are that 1, you're forced to obey some military officer and only use your abilities when allowed to instead of losing them yet again. And 2, that though young, Samus is shown to be almost a helpless child and dependant on other people for the first and hopefully only time in the series. I actually like strong female protagonists, especially the main woman like Samus who is in my opinion the first female main character. I don't count Ms. Pacman or any other characters because Samus was always her own separate person. She wasn't a character who was based on anyone else especially a male or anyone special's daughter or mother or anything else. She's her own woman. I HATE Metroid Other M.
