Bit of a swerve, but I do think that the fanbase tends to overlook how at its core, the series does have influences from works beyond just the Alien series, such as the anime and manga Space Adventure Cobra. Heck, they seem to not want any anime influence in the series.

And of course, having samus be some sort of juggernaut Doom Slayer-esque girlboss, ignoring the deliberate contrast between her armored and unarmored self.

Could not agree more. I was very disappointed with it. Trilogy with Wii Motion Plus is the best form.

They should port that over to Switch 2 via NSO after they milk the fan base with remasters. I haven't played the Prime remaster yet, it looks serviceable but definitely missing lots of little things that add up from what I can tell.

It's ironic how Samus' gender was a secret and made out to be a big deal, yet feminists just want her to be a man and complain whenever she's not not a silent killing machine in armor and actually seems like a woman for a moment.

And Metroid is very anime by nature, always has been, I mean it's made by Japs. I'm pretty sure there was an old 80's manga companion release for the game in Japan. These western libtard fags can fuck off.

Any new Prime 4 news? He says doubting and growing evermore cautious. Still no announcements about Prime 2 or 3 rereleases, or a remix of Hunters (or even FedForce, which has story details leading directly into 4)... meaning the majority of the Prime games are unplayable for modern audiences too lazy to emulate. This being before the 4th game in a Tetralogy comes out. The majority of new players getting into Prime 4 will be lacking context for 80% of the series. Good job goytendo, and I bet they're going to be charging 70-80 dollars for it even on Switch 1... Over 8 years of waiting since the initial teaser, and 18 years since Prime 3. Babies have been born and grown to adulthood in the span people have waited, and Nintendo is still playing chicken with the game's release. Just baffling.
 
I wanted to post the actual trailer but I can't find it anywhere but anyway. Metaquarious released a new trailer for X-Fusion. Sorry for the reaction video but this is the only one I could find.

Apparently it's going to be released this summer. I've been waiting for this for like 10 years now. I'm honestly surprised he didn't drop the project. He seems like a bit of a sperg. I remember one point on the metroid construction forums where he went a bit nuts about people saying his artwork looked too anime and fucked up his thread on the hack. Either way, this looks cool as fuck and hopefully he actually releases it.

Also, for anyone that doesn't know what this is, it's a remake of Metroid Fusion using the Super Metroid engine.

Wouldn't it make more sense to make Super Metroid in Fusion's engine? Whatever. Nintendo lawyers eyeing it like a murderous animal, AM2R still fresh in the minds of all who played it.

I prefer Super Metroid's engine personally but i believe from what I understand about Fusion the event system is pretty fundamental to the game and there's not really any way to work around it. I'm not sure if it would be possible to make a good remake of Super Metroid in Fusion. There's a couple of Zero Mission hacks attempting to do it but they kind of suck.

Can they actually go after romhacks? Most romhacks are distributed as patches that only contain the changes to the code and not the actual game itself. I always thought that's why romhacks by and large have been left alone.

Yes. I remember some pokemon hacks being taken down after Nintendo's AI/s got wind of one.
