@@ChuuniKaede Metroid games are known for being fun to break, which is what gives them a lot of speedrun tricks. So it could be meant sincerely, as in "Good job, you made a very stable game", or it could be sarcastic, as in "Good job, you took away what people love about metroid".
Actually other Metroids are specifically designed in a way that makes it easy to "break" them by skipping certain bosses or upgrades. That isn't a mistake, it's purposeful game design. The reason the Fusion devs made sure it was almost impossible to sequence break is because the strict linearity of the game is important for the plot, and sequence-breaking would screw the game up.
Unfortunately, Samus' scream upon seeing Ridley for the hundredth time in the series and freaking out like a small child is what I remember most about that abomination.
sector 6 [NOC] is actually dark........ but only if you're playing it on the original GBA. the effect worked way better because the screen wasn't backlit.
to clear up a little bit of the lore: the metroids were indeed predators to the X parasites, but metroids are not natural beings. the metroids were created by the chozo for the _purpose_ of hunting the X parasites, which, as is seen in this game, have the potential threat of wiping out civilizations due to their infectious and parasitic nature. the metroids we are familiar with, from the beginning of the series up to now, are cloned/hatched from a batch of metroids the space pirates stole long ago and engineered into bioweapons, hence their destructive nature outside of just the X parasite.
If you pay attention in Metroid II as well, you can also see that the Metroids themselves were not much better. Towards the surface of SR388, the caverns are teeming with life. But as you approach closer and closer to the core, and then the Metroid Hive, the enemies become fewer, smaller, and significantly weaker. It shows the amount of environmental devastation an uncontrolled Metroid hive can cause, making them almost as dangerous a threat as the X are.
Ngl, coming back to this and hearing that one donation calling out Nintendo on Dread is,,, something. Dunno whether to say it aged like wine or milk tbh. To answer their question: October 8th, 2021.
Im 19 years old and that shit scared me. Nintendo didnt fuck around when it came to Metroid cut scenes. Beautifully detailed and surprisingly eerie at times.
necro on this old comment but i feel this When I was a kid the part after the spider boss where you get jumped by the sa-x and have to run damn near gave me a heart attack and the amount of times I died before figuring out the escape lmao there's a mod that allows you to get jumped by multiple of them at a time
"Oh is this Super Metroid? I guess so." *Zooms in on SA-X* "Ah!" Yo Scotty skips Nightmare, Ridley, the final SA-X fight and the Omega Metroid fight?!?! Scotty op please nerf.
Ah this game brings me back. Im replaying the entire metroid series right now from the classic NES metroid to playing the fan made supermetroid remake. Love this series and I wish it would get more games added to the series. So good.
I love fusion. My first metroid game. I also just want the story to continue after fusion story. I would love to see what they could do with the story of parasite x vs metroids.
That's cause when this video came out the glitch was basically just discovered. I still remember the day the TAS demo came out. Everyone rushed for a real time set up.
My first time ever playing Metroid fusion, I only got 5 or 7 energy tanks I don't remember which. it wasn't until I started looking up information about the game but I realized just how many I had missed after realizing my percentage when I beat the game was so blasted low.
So, I played Minish Cap the other day for the second time ever and then remembered I never actually beat Metroid Fusion so I'm currently playing that but I wanted to see some nice tricks since Metroid runs are always great speed runs. Gonna watch this and then a normal any%
I'd even go so far as to say that this game and Super are on the same level. I really don't think I could choose one over the other, they're both so good.

definitely wine. We live in a timeline where Dread exists
Bois, the future is now
Trying to break metroid fusion is like trying to break obsidian in Minecraft with your fists at .25 game speed
It took 17 years but we finally did it
Lucas Watts I would give ya an upvote good sir but you seem to already have the maximum stack of likes.
Shoutouts to whoever zoomed the camera really close on that guy's face right at the beginning of the video
Power bombing the RAM...
Well, it's no wrong-warping into the title screen, but it's up there.
not gona lie, 7:24 actually scared me when i was a little kid haha
same i still get scared
i had to turn off my sound and look away becuase i was so scared
Im 19 years old and that shit scared me. Nintendo didnt fuck around when it came to Metroid cut scenes. Beautifully detailed and surprisingly eerie at times.
necro on this old comment but i feel this
When I was a kid the part after the spider boss where you get jumped by the sa-x and have to run damn
near gave me a heart attack and the amount of times I died before figuring out the escape lmao
there's a mod that allows you to get jumped by multiple of them at a time
35:00 We're finally getting Metroid Dread!!
35:00 SteeG, your $500 made this happen. The Metroid community thanks you
This isn’t regular darkness. This is... advanced darkness!
40:23 - Bark here comes the FrankerZ Bark Hear as he barks so free Bark Bark Bark Bark Bark Bark Bark Bark Bark Bark FrankerZ
That's you isn't it...

Lmao. What Is that? xD
EMERGENCY IN FRANKER Z
oh my god, this was beautiful.
but now i have it stuck in my head.
thanks.
This is the longest 6 minute speed run I've ever seen.
The memory corruption starts at 49:20
35:00 It took them a few years, but you got it.
I always enjoy runs where I don’t understand what happened but we’re at the end.
2 years later, you now have Metroid Dread. 👏
"Oh is this Super Metroid? I guess so."
*Zooms in on SA-X*
"Ah!"
Yo Scotty skips Nightmare, Ridley, the final SA-X fight and the Omega Metroid fight?!?! Scotty op please nerf.
He skip 7 boss fight total
*me forgetting the category*
"I dunno there's only ten minutes left"
Wait what?
"When are we going to get that Metroid Dread Nintendo?"
I'm talking to you from the future. The answer is October 2021, and it looks great.
"When we gonna get that Metroid: Dread, Nintendo?"
2021 - "Funny you should ask that..."
I wanted to listen to music instead, but I got entranced with this speedrun. A sincere thanks, GDQ.
35:00 that comment is now finally a reality!
WOW they finally broke Metroid Fusion! I still remember I was so happy I got under 1:40 when I was a kid
I remember getting 1:30 and never being do it again
@@spike333s3 he meant 1h40m. No glitch needed for that it's actually pretty slow
Ah this game brings me back. Im replaying the entire metroid series right now from the classic NES metroid to playing the fan made supermetroid remake. Love this series and I wish it would get more games added to the series. So good.
Jesus christ
This is the first time I ever watched this category and I kept wondering where the memory corruption would actually come into play
Same lol. Watching like "wow this is going fairly far into the... Oh.... There it.... Was..."
I honestly didn't know it was Memory Corruption until I saw your comment, and even after. I was waiting
Sector 6 on a non backlit GBA is kinda darker than that, at least it felt like it
Hell yeah, Metroid is the main reason I watch gdq.
Pretty sure Super Metroid is a big reason speed running began in the first place. Probably why they keep it as a big thing for the end of most AGDQs.
This game made my childhood on gameboy… what a masterpiece
I love how Samus literally dropped power bombs in the game memory
This is such a great game
don't worry, steejee.
we have metroid dread, now.
35:00 what a coincidence- that's what brought me here!
Metroid Dread joke has aged well
To be fair it’d still be almost 3 years after this video’s post date
Very enjoyable run! Scotty is a beast of a runner ^^
Really inspires me to start runnin Fusion!
This was the first run I saw live at a GDQ event. Thanks Scotty!!!
slaysomemore 👍
Well Dread was finally announced !
"When are you going to get to metroid Dread, nintendo?"
Aw, screw you guys. Fusion Varia Suit looks fabulous and goes perfect with purple Wide Beam.
Forever my favorite combination :D
The only fusion suit that looks decent is the original color one
Fusion is the BEST 2D Metroid, cause we saved the animals from Super AND we save them again in this one.
Came here from 2021 to bring good news of Metroid Dread on the horizon
35:00 they listened to the dono oh my god
35:00 Well I’ve got some REALLY good news for that guy
I love fusion. My first metroid game. I also just want the story to continue after fusion story. I would love to see what they could do with the story of parasite x vs metroids.
So, what do you think of what they did with the story now? ;3
35:00
"Hey when are we gonna get that Metroid Dread, Nintendo?"
October 2021 would be the answer
35:03 I have some great news!
Ridley X, the loudest entity to ever exist
What a intresting run. I've only seen any % so glad to see a new category being ran
35:04
we now have metroid dread.
wow, dude showed me something I've never seen before with that glitch ending!
That's cause when this video came out the glitch was basically just discovered.
I still remember the day the TAS demo came out. Everyone rushed for a real time set up.
"when are we getting metroid dread?" well I guess we are getting it in october of this year.
I like the kid announcing. Informative.
The one in the middle? JRP is a top runner in this game, he definitely knows it well!
I loved loved LOOOVED Playing Metroid fusion on the bus.
51:37 Oh no, it's drifting away!
Just rewatching this...to answer the the donator who was asking when we would get Metroid Dread.....October... October is the answer!!!
"ITS BEAUTIFUL"
" *no its not* "
" *YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL* "
Those chatty few in the crowd were just amazing.
My favorite Metroid game, never got anywhere near an hour in my dozens of playthroughs as a kid though lol
I love the metroid series! I started to watch you guys and I started to play metroid 3 on my nintendo switch.
35:15 Metroid Dread now is a reality!
35:00 well this guy is getting his metroid dread lol
My first time ever playing Metroid fusion, I only got 5 or 7 energy tanks I don't remember which. it wasn't until I started looking up information about the game but I realized just how many I had missed after realizing my percentage when I beat the game was so blasted low.
That skip at the end was beautiful.
35:00 Listen this gives sastifaction right now.
That guy in the background kills me. Hilarious.
can't wait to see Scotty break metroid dread
So, I played Minish Cap the other day for the second time ever and then remembered I never actually beat Metroid Fusion so I'm currently playing that but I wanted to see some nice tricks since Metroid runs are always great speed runs. Gonna watch this and then a normal any%
If not for Super, this would be the best Metroid game hands down.
I'm personally partial to Zero Mission. Though it was my 1st Metroid game, so I may be a bit biased.
I'm partial to prime 1/2 myself, followed by zero mission, then fusion.
I like Zero Mission and AM2R more, but Fusion is a fantastic entry.
yeah fusion is a close 2nd then zero mission
I'd even go so far as to say that this game and Super are on the same level. I really don't think I could choose one over the other, they're both so good.
“When’re we gonna get that Metroid Dread Nintendo?!”
Nintendo: October 8.
"When are we gonna get that metroid dread, Nintendo"
Nintendo: *nervously sweats*
Thanks for making me remember the nightmare fuel that is the thumbnail.
Edit: aww you guys changed it.
They had no idea how close Metroid Dread was
35:00 apparently in late 2021 says Nintendo
the way he said "J U N G L E B I O M E" so strongly made me think of terraria
35:00 Well, we have an answer to this question now
2021 later: im sorry for hurting you nintendo
CScottyW has the current world record in every category. Wow.
My favorite Metroid game!
At 35:00 "Hey when are we getting that Metroid Dread, Nintendo"
35:02 me just starting metroid dead in 2021 :0
PLEASE GOD BRING US A METROID FUSION REMAKE
35:02 greetings from the future
35:00 I'm literally watching this run while I wait for Metroid Dread to unlock on my switch xD
35:00 me laughing, having just completed Metroid Dread a few hours ago
One day I’ll actually have money to donate lol. That’s awesome! Never seen fusion run like this before
35:03 Metroid Dread comes out in 2021 apparently
35:00 Announced for October 8, 2021
Great run! Love seeing memory corruptions.
35:00 only took 2 years :)
Scotty doesn’t know the story of this game?!! So... SCOTTY DOESNT KNOW! 😂😂
CG's donation aged very well
I love this game❤. I play it once in a while for nostalgia.
Space Federation: Samus help! We need--
Samus: one hour.
35:00 Soon. It's coming!
Just beat the game for the first time it took me 6 hours and I only got 59% of the items. And I thought I had like 75% lol this game was great
