Francisco Soto Villegas honestly ridely being the final boss of a metroid game feels bizarre, he's never really felt like a arch nemesis compared to link v Gannon or Mario v bowser.
Rabid Robbie yes, but he's always felt too unintelligent to be the arch nemesis, since he was almost always under leadership from something of higher intellegence, the only character I'd ever really classify as samus's memsis would be mother brain, since they had a very interesting back story between the two.
Johnny joestaru I mean, it's pretty obvious that he's quite intelligent. The absence of speech doesn't imply stupidity, he's far too much of an opportunistic fuck to be stupid.
Camelslayer yeah, I shouldn't have used the word unentellegent, it's just that Samus thought the metroid series has always fought ridley before the final boss, that he's just never been viewed as a main antagonist in my opinion.
The94Venom oh yea, now that you point it out Though every boss in this game changes color when you get their health low enough This can’t be a coincidence...
The fight with SA-X was... disappointingly easy, honesty. Especially considering how much it was hyped throughout the whole game. I can play metroid fusion on an emulator in my phone and still defeat SA-X without taking damage ( •_•)
It’s rather easy actually I wouldn’t necessarily call it disappointing because SA-X can still wipe the floor with you if you aren’t careful Even still, the atmosphere of the battle is just epic
Strangely it kinda add stuff that doesn't make sense in the serie as a whole (not retconning but the whole phazon stuff). This is why Prime is mostly a spinoff serie (and Other M should stay as a spin off as well)
As convoluted as other M can be...it does fill in a lot of holes. Just ignore then mischaracterizing Samus, using a poor control system, and not making us actually care about the other characters. Ridley is the ultimate parasite himself, considering even as a chick he had incredible intelligence to lure a researcher in and eat them. By eating the researchers and fallen soldiers, Ridley was able to grow and evolve fast enough to go from chick to fully grown in a matter of hours.

Justin Richard EX they arent stupid. Mother Brain was once the Main helper of the choso and Theres a reason Ridley is the leader of the space pirates. And if it aint them, they sure have connections
Kraid is possible ( well, only if he escaped planet Zebes after Super Metroid ). We could maybe get a mother brain clone, but that wouldn’t really fit the tone of this game. While for Ridley?… Let’s be honest, of course he’s gonna come back in some way shape or form.

Now, I recall Ridley being spoiled for me 4 years ago just from this video's thumbnail, right around the time I was trying to beat the Queen Metroid. If anything like that happens when Dread comes out, I am seriously going to be fuckin pissed. I really hope people have gained a fucking clue by now, but that's a hopeless wish.
Just me or was super Metroid final boss the easiest I thought Ridley was much harder but tbh I think super Metroid is the best out of the series for great story telling fun bosses and the iconic rainbow laser at the end truly is a masterpiece
Usually because once she starts using beams, you’ve already reached the point in the fight where the cutscene is supposed to play out, so any damage you do to her during this time seems basically negligible.
What if Samus and Baby Metroid teams up in a later game that's basically an alternative path, aka Baby Metroid survives and is Samus's partner after fully studied.
So this doesn’t have anything to do with the video but I have nowhere else to say this so I’m going to say it here. Why does everyone shit on Samus Returns? Isn’t it what everyone wanted? I mean there is the “the graphics are bad” complaint, but it’s on the 3DS! What do you expect? I thought it looked very nice for a 3DS game.
For the record the 2D Metroid final bosses are incredible and powerful in their own right. But the 2 2D Metroid final bossesthat stick out to me the most is Mecha Ridley from Metroid Zero Mission and Proteus Ridley from Metroid Samus Returns remake which are two of my favorite final boss battles in the Metroid franchise.
Ridley seems out of place in Samus Returns. I guess one could that say that that's how the Space Pirates knew about the baby Metroid (he sees it in the remake), but why was he even on SR388 in the first place? Didn't the entire Prime Trilogy happen between Metroid NES and Metroid 2? He looks sort of like he did in MP3. It was sort of just confusing.
i remember the first time i fought mother brain in super metroid. i didnt know a thing about metroid lore or stuff so i go in and then she starts hyperbeaming me and im like "nooo! im gonna lose noo!!" i was like 10.
13:30 No NO *SCREWATTACK* NOOOOOOO WHAT IN GODS NAME...oh it’s an omega Metroid BUT WHY IS IT SO HUGE that last time i fought one of these things it was only slightly taller than Samus
The end of the Samus Returns remake looks like a fun boss fight, but I feel it ruins the story of Super Metroid if Samus was _just_ fighting Ridley on SR388 and the baby metroid totally kicked his ass but then she shoves it in a bottle to give to the federation and woops Ridley's back at full health in time to steal it immediately after, giving her barely enough time to throw all her upgrades into the vacuum of space before coming back to fight him again.
Actually makes a lot of sense. In Metroid three, really shows up at the space colony. How did he know the baby Metroid was there? And Samus returns, it shows that he actively fight Samus and the baby Metroid so now he knows where they are.
The only games which Ridley is (finally) the final boss is: METROID ZERO MISSION AND METROID SAMUS RETURNS yes zero mission Actually that big metal thing is actually Mecha Ridley Also that purple dragon with metal body is Proteus Ridley NOTE:THIS IS FOR BEGGINERS OR PEOPLE WHO DONT KNOW WHO ARE THESE BOSSES

One has to wonder why the weapons system on her ship wont open fire on Ridley
Cuz they wanted Samus to kill him.
Dyeing Blox supposedly her gunship has plasma cannons on it, and Ridley is typically weak to plasma shots.
Think for Yourself because her ship in Metroid prime 3 has weapon systems. This is not the same ship.
Mark Kestner so she's a space bounty hunter and she didnt have a ship with weapons???

In the remakes of Metroid 1 and 2, Ridley was made into the final boss of both. Further highlighting how he has evolved into the series main villain.
The robot doesn’t count.
7:48 I don't know why, but it sounds like the metroid is just repeating "blurger" like mother brain is an employee at an intergalactic mcdonalds
It's funny how the obligatory end-of-game power trip for metroid fusion is just you not being feeble like you've been the entire game
