HouIe 10/22/21 8:12:09 PM #26 | Moving the controller to the left while trying to wiggle the little stick from compressed air canister in from the right between the rubber dust jacket and the controller itself. No. Your breath has moisture and can corrode something. Same reason why you shouldn't have blown the old cartridges back in the day. |
Topic | Metroid Dread does not disappoint. It's everything I wished other m was. |
HouIe 10/22/21 8:07:13 PM #16 | I'd put it above fusion. It has some really great attributes that let you really zoom through the game. I don't think you could wall jump while holding a shine spark in super, and dread has the quick hops that zero mission took. The map in super was better as it was more cohesive. While there were mine shafts that allowed you to fast travel, the world was interconnected allowing you to run from magma to surface. I did not like how dread kept each biome locked behind a loading corridor. The boss selection In Metroid was more varied and engaging of course dread had far too many recycled variants of the same thing. Though dlc may help with this as more bosses were planned but cut for time issues. |
Topic | Is it weird that I had no issues with the Shinespark puzzles in Dread? |
HouIe 10/22/21 7:47:39 PM #15 | I found them difficult mostly due to having difficulties activating the shine spark in mid air. I remember the ones in zero mission being far harder and one in particular in super that gave me more troubles. |

HouIe 10/22/21 7:45:39 PM #14 | What I mean by dark Samus was that the move sets you got in this game were all moves demonstrates by dark Samus. The aeon abilities all are found in dark Samus move set, including the blaster. I'm thinking that aeon devices and enhancements are from the Mawkin tribe,.while the traditional ones are from the therma (something like that, don't feel like opening a tab) tribes. All of the abilities that are aeon , Mawkin have. Samus using her Metroid powers from fusion to augment abilities from the EMMI are displayed in dread. Given that metroids do not have this host augmentation ability , demonstrated by super and other m showing creatures turning to dust, it stands to reason that when the phazon suit was absorbed with it too was the Metroid and Mawkin DNA. The creation of dark Samus being a corruption of the phazon suit definitely works - especially given how the Ing work in Metroid prime 2, and x in fusion. Phazon, the Ing, and X all absorb, adhere to, take over the host, and augments the hosts abilities. Sakamoto stated that Prime is not canon, but fans have it between super and fusion given the lack of fusion elements. My theory is that retroactively prime takes place after the rest. This would explain the more powerful mother brain clones in prime 3 when compared to dread, the aeon abilities being so similar to dark Samus bag of tricks. None of this is proven of course, just a personal theory. |
Topic | I'm starting up Metroid Bread. Any tips |
HouIe 10/22/21 6:55:50 PM #10 | Use warm water and add some money. Mix thoroughly into this mixture some yeast. Wait half an hour. If it is foamy then the yeast is alive.and your bread will rise. |

HouIe 10/22/21 6:54:41 PM #3 | I am not so hot on the open neck design during the quiet robe cutscene or the exposed wire look but each suit felt slick , unique , futuristic , and modernized super Metroid. The last suit looked like a perfect set up to dark Samus. It really does feel like Metroid Dread is slowly turning you into dark Samus. Which then makes me wonder if Metroid prime will be taking place AFTER Metroid Dread retroactively given the events of that game. |

HouIe 10/22/21 6:52:26 PM #12 | The purple one. That felt like the turning point for me where they went from absolutely terrifying and I'd stay still for minutes at a time to when I gained confidence to rush through the zones and put maneuver it. |
Topic | Metroid is easily Nintendo's best series |
HouIe 10/22/21 6:51:15 PM #8 | I would have to agree. The only bad game, Metroid Other M still had rather competent gameplay and bosses. The story, instant dodge, and half hearted first person controls were the only downsides. I would never give it a second playthrough but yeah. I played super Metroid prior to going through Dread and it held up really well. The sound effects were dated and the art was pixelated but the music, design of the world, and sense of exploration are huge hallmarks. Metroid prime turned into a masterpiece despite literal embezzlement and sketchy ownership at retro. And the second and third both were absolutely fantastic. Three suffered from WMCP (Wii motion control problems) but it more than makes up with the music, design, and conclusion of the story arc. |
Topic | Prime 4 or Super Metroid Remake |
HouIe 10/22/21 6:45:12 PM #47 | Prime 4. Been waiting for that cliff hanger for a while now. I hope they have learned a lot from fps and fpp since the last game. Metroid shares a lot of movement philosophy with early sonic the hedgehog games. It's all about momentum. |

HouIe 10/22/21 6:40:30 PM #1 | I just finished my second playthrough of the game. I went through hard mode and nothing really felt cheap or unfair. I died so many times but each death felt like my fault rather than some cheap bs. The EMMI gave that same freak out feeling as fusion but I felt I had a lot more options to avoid them. The lore got confusing but I really liked seeing more of Samus backstory. The enemies looked like they were influence from each game of the past. I saw the little hermit crab things from Metroid prime, the spider like things from super, the Chykka from Metroid prime 2, and various bugs from the original. Unfortunate stories coming out from the dev but if the employer and employees (including former) can come to a good conclusion I'd be fine with mercury studios taking on 2d Metroid games given their 2/2 success with the franchise. |
