+blur772 SA-X is an extremely early encounter in Fusion, and a primary threat throughout the whole game. It's not like the Queen Metroid which only appears at the very end. It'd be more like if they showed the Omega Metroid or the final form of the SA-X in the Fusion commercial.

Is nobody going to mention how well crafted Metroid Prime's commercial was? The integration of the first person and live action scenes was just so seamless. Makes me wish there was Metroid short film or something
Saying that you're fighting evil was tacky. You're mostly fighting inhabitants of Tallon IV's nature as an unwelcome intruder, not evil. I get it if they were implying space pirates, but I have a feeling they weren't.
It's not really worth it. The buggy and uninteresting gameplay wishes it was as good as the commercial. And that's coming from someone who has beaten the game several times.
Eh, after the first playthrough you learn how to avoid all of the fucking bullshit the game throws at you and you can better enjoy what the game was trying to do. That said I save it for some very rainy days.
I don't know mate, but I actually enjoyed a lot Other M, even with all it's flaws, the gameplay is quite thirlling and fast. It is fun... but in the end is a mediocre metroid game at best... I suppose you'll have to make your own mind about it.
PowerCookie1 It may be linear but it had a great story and soundtrack, let alone the level design was astounding so no area looks the same while playing
Other M's commercial sorta reminds me of Halo Reach's and more recently Halo Wars 2's commercials... It also reminds me of some others but I can't put my finger on them.
Destroyah5000 While I had played the original Metroid on an old NES, I was far too young to properly appreciate and enjoy it. Other M's commercial was my first real exposure to the Metroid series. Now Metroid is one of my favorite game franchises of all time.
i'm with you. I got bored and kind angry with the Father-Daughter stuff, but the game played flawlessly. I think people just didn't like the battle focused and less exploration-oriented gameplay .
You clearly see the difference between Team Ninja and Retro by playing their games. Team Ninja should've never made a Metroid title it simply doesn't fit. For me the Gameplay was bland, the controls horrible designed, the story a mess (I hate those kind of bad plot twists like in Xenoblade X), the leveldesign was boring, the characters were poorly written (yeah I'm one of those who doesn't like Samus refusing to activate the varia suit while burning to death or being paralyzed by an enemy she fought before) and so on. The only things I liked were the artstyle, the suit design and the finishing animations - quite glad they return.
@@besmirmujaj9 Yeah honestly with the trailer being so good I couldn't imagine being hyped for that thing to come out. Could you imagine? Glad I wasn't on that hype train when it crashed
If they ever do a live action Metroid Justin Lin (in my book Just saying?) should direct it and Britt Robertson should play Samus Aran (in my book just saying?)
Kaz J I didn't like it. The CGI seemed off somehow and the pretentious narration combined with an oversexualized, short-statured Samus ruined it for me.
That Metroid Prime commercial is legendary...Fun Fact: it was a the initial proof of concept for a live action Metroid movie. There was even a script floating around during the early and mid 2000's but it could never get out of the pre production phase
Other M is decent gameplay wise, it's a little hampered by it's linear design & restricted first-person mode but besides that it's pretty fun. Story is garbage though.
Nintendo will never make a better tagline than their "who are you?" ads. Maybe better than "Get 'N'-to it!" with the GameBoy Color, but never "who are you?"
I think the Fusion commercial is one of Nintendo's most underrated bits of marketing ever. It looked like something right out of the movies of that era. Honestly, I wish Nintendo did more live action commercials like this nowadays, and not just commercials of people playing their games.
All of these are awesome, it really illustrates how much Metroid meant to the company, and Nintendo fans at NOA. I liked Other M when it came out I only played it once and finished the extra mission. Years later I have no desire to come back to it but it was interesting for what Team Ninja built despite not living up to potential.
"You remember how the people liked how dark and mysterious Metroid games always were? How they produced feelings of isolation, the music was dark, epic and sometimes pretty eery? You know what would safe the series? CHIBI-LOOK!" -whoever was responsible for the clusterfuck that calls itself Federation Force
You can really tell which decade you were in as you watch each commercial. From the "Whoa dude!" 80s commercials, that irreverent 90s humor, the gritty 2000s, the "Wii would like to play" era circa 2005, all the way to the overly cinematic 2010s. You can almost make out what movies had released at the time.
The very end of that OG Metroid Prime commercial still gives me goosebumps with those trailing notes... It's just so good. Never again will we get another Metroid commercial like that, where the live action is spliced in with game footage in a rather ingenious way.
Well, you'll have to wait a few more years. They canned what Bandai had made and are having Retro Studios start over from scratch. Maybe... 2024 we'll see something?
Perhaps they realized it was hot trash, so to make up for the impending storm of negative reviews they threw a ton of money at the marketing budget to sell as many copies as possible early on. The types of games Team Ninja does probably wasn't the best fit for a series like Metroid. The game itself feels like some higher ups were being indecisive about the storyline itself (probably ate up a lot of the project time and budget if they went through a bunch of different iterations), and that the level design and gameplay mechanics were somewhat rushed or just half-assed to meet some deadline.
Javi Mínguez Zero Mission is maybe the best 2d game in the series. And that was 2004, not 2002. And AM2R is so well made it deserves to be called a proper Metroid game
Recuerdo haber visto el tráiler de Other M en casa de mi abuela por la TV cuando era niño, me transmitió una sensación tremenda, pues ya había jugado prime con anterioridad.
I remember seeing those Prime 2 commercials back when I was a kid. They always made me want to play the game, but the whole dark world freaked me out. And now it's one of my favorite games of all time because of that. Thanks Retro. :D
Trainer Popplio It’s a good game, but personally I’m still really mad that Nintendo would insult us with not giving us a proper game for 9 years, and then releasing something where you play as the troopers who usually die horrible deaths in the main games.
Super Metroid will probably always be the best Metroid game ever. The physics of the game (wall jumping and sprint) that allow you to sequence break make it the best ever! Not to mention the beautiful graphics, creatures, environments, music, and more!
The Metroid II commercial is incorrect, right? It claims that a Metroid survived on Zebes and is now multiplying? I thought Samus was just going to the source of the Metroids, SR388. Either the story of Metroid II got retconned, or the makers of the commercial misinterpreted/made up parts of the story.
The latter. The real story is how you remember it. The commercial got it wrong. It’s not surprising, really. Remember Captain N? Ever wondered why Samus never appeared there? The developers claimed they didn’t know she existed. Yeah....
People that accuse Nintendo of only catering to kids are clearly unaware of the existence of this hallowed series as well as Eternal Darkness....freaking playstation *Psycho SOny Crony* gaming noobs.
freedomdst TBH Other M is a good game but a bad Metroid Game, and the trailer was pretty good. Federation Force is actually a nice co-op shooter, and it probably would have been more appreciated without the Metroid branding. But yeah, Metroid went downhill after the Prime Trilogy ended. At least now we have 2 new hopes.
@Preston I disagree with the Metroid logo. I'm fine with the logo but it should've been released _after_ a new Metroid game. It wouldn't have gotten so much backlash and probably would've gotten some positive feedback and also would've sold more copies.
Metroid Prime’s commercial is so badass, I really hope that Metroid Prime 4 gets the same treatment as well as Metroid Prime 2 & 3 for a Metroid Prime Trilogy HD commercial when it releases on the Switch
TIL that 90% of Metroid commercials were hot garbage. And here I was wondering why it's not in Nintendo's top selling franchises. Maybe use a different marketing company next time?
They say Samus is a Master Chef, and she specializes in the art of cooking something until it's nothing but ash. You could say she's.... "done well" as a cook.
Prime commercial was pretty good. Loved how they intersected actual gameplay with the live action part of the commercial. It looked like it could have been in the game. It was pretty good.
Joseph Ballesteros technically true but Samus isn't playable it's just that we've been waiting years for anew Metroid game since other m and they give us this meh game. Where you don't even play as a Samus we don't want to play as the federation those guys are just supposed to be cannon fodder who move out of the way and let Samus deal with it.
Other M was a decent Game they gave Samus character and the gameplay was neat (besides point to advance segments) Again Federation is literally just your Prime series but from a different of this galaxy you're Federation troops As much as I love Metroid and Samus what can they do with it? Fusion sealed their story forever they can't go forward and going backwards we got Other M

Except for Nintendo, since when? I can't think of any modern-era gaming commercials with gameplay outside of Nintendo, and tons without.
That's 2 seconds more gameplay than most current game commercials show. Nowadays they show no actual gameplay and "cutscene, cutscene, cutscene!"
So Metroid 2 literally spoiled the final boss of the game in the commercial. Nice.
Well, the japanese trailer for zero mission spoiled the pirate mothership plot twist.
Samus-x is also spoiled in the Fusion trailer
You spoiled that it was the final boss.
Just joking xD

Why is the Metroid fusion commercial that good when it's for a game boy game
Because the game lives up to the hype
Fusion was my first Metroid game. I was hooked to the franchise instantly.
seeing the other m commercial takes me back to when I was hyped, then the disappointment
My complaint with the prime 1 commercial is that the doors to new rooms don’t open in 2 seconds, it’s more like 6 years
WHY DID THE METROID II COMMERCIAL SHOW THE FINAL BOSS?!
Talk about heavy spoilers...
Yes, it's unforgivable...
GameMasterKyro hgg
Touching is good. I can't believe that was the actual slogan.
The Metroid II commercial is incorrect, right? It claims that a Metroid survived on Zebes and is now multiplying? I thought Samus was just going to the source of the Metroids, SR388. Either the story of Metroid II got retconned, or the makers of the commercial misinterpreted/made up parts of the story.
The latter. The real story is how you remember it. The commercial got it wrong. It’s not surprising, really. Remember Captain N? Ever wondered why Samus never appeared there? The developers claimed they didn’t know she existed. Yeah....
@@AkaiAzul Ironically enough the fake premise is closer to Dread now.
Only Metroid ad I've ever seen was the one for Other M. First time seeing any of the other ads.
People that accuse Nintendo of only catering to kids are clearly unaware of the existence of this hallowed series as well as Eternal Darkness....freaking playstation *Psycho SOny Crony* gaming noobs.
Yep. Eternal Darkness is a masterpiece. Incredible story, atmosphere and fun gameplay.
Why did you blame it on Sony Fanboys? Pc LoserRace and Xturds also exist.
@@sheikhheisen yeah
@@mariodelrio2387 I am cringing at that comment I wrote 2 years ago.
So awesome that it ends on that sad note and then all this time later the trailer for Metroid Dread is out.
escuse me, you left some trash at the ending, it was supposed to be metroid commercials
xDDDDD
freedomdst TBH Other M is a good game but a bad Metroid Game, and the trailer was pretty good. Federation Force is actually a nice co-op shooter, and it probably would have been more appreciated without the Metroid branding. But yeah, Metroid went downhill after the Prime Trilogy ended. At least now we have 2 new hopes.
@Preston I disagree with the Metroid logo. I'm fine with the logo but it should've been released _after_ a new Metroid game. It wouldn't have gotten so much backlash and probably would've gotten some positive feedback and also would've sold more copies.
Preston Yates nope,bad game overall.
shut up
also i love the false advertising in the second MP:hunters commercial.
5:25 the Star Fox sound?
Doesn't sound like a Star Fox sound to me.
The Star Fox 64 sound
i watched these while watching my parents crt tv on the floor when i was 8
That Metroid Fusion ad was awesome
I love Metroid. I'm really hyped up for prime 4. Like if you are too!
Metroid Prime’s commercial is so badass, I really hope that Metroid Prime 4 gets the same treatment as well as Metroid Prime 2 & 3 for a Metroid Prime Trilogy HD commercial when it releases on the Switch
Do you recommend me Other M?
Want to play a shit game? Play Other M. Want to play the worst Metroid game? Play Other M.
Cedars Other M is a very good game, it has a lovely history
Jonathan Joestar I've never heard "very good game" and "Other M" in one sentence before.
Lol that's a lot of hate
No, it fucking sucks.
Lol, I actually remember seeing the Metroid: Zero Mission commerical as a child during the GBA's life.
TIL that 90% of Metroid commercials were hot garbage. And here I was wondering why it's not in Nintendo's top selling franchises. Maybe use a different marketing company next time?
YES YES YES!!! Finally someone who says it.
Eh, some are a little... cheesy or bad but I dont think its 90% garbo
My favorite one is Metroid Prime 2 Echoes commercial.
7:02 is epic and Metroid 4 is coming!
metroid PRIME 4, not metroid 4
Metroid Prime 4 is coming on Q2 2018
Q2 2018....um...no. You're getting your hopes up for that considering we haven't even had a full trailer or announced dates.
Update, Prime 4 was held back, being redone, or scratched altogether
Other M is underrated
They say Samus is a Master Chef, and she specializes in the art of cooking something until it's nothing but ash. You could say she's.... "done well" as a cook.
dude I remember that metroid prime commercial... I watched it so many times
What a terrible way to end the video
no
Prime commercial was pretty good. Loved how they intersected actual gameplay with the live action part of the commercial. It looked like it could have been in the game. It was pretty good.
Nowadays I can spot the Difference between the game and the live-action parts, but I do like how they to to make them like one
Nintendo can keep Federation Force its an insult to the prime series
TheOfficialDJSuperRaveman honestly it would have been an ok game if they hadn't slapped prime on it.
Braven g yes that I agree with
It's literally the same as your prime series just with coop and more emphasis on FPS
Joseph Ballesteros technically true but Samus isn't playable it's just that we've been waiting years for anew Metroid game since other m and they give us this meh game. Where you don't even play as a Samus we don't want to play as the federation those guys are just supposed to be cannon fodder who move out of the way and let Samus deal with it.
Other M was a decent Game they gave Samus character and the gameplay was neat (besides point to advance segments)
Again Federation is literally just your Prime series but from a different of this galaxy you're Federation troops
As much as I love Metroid and Samus what can they do with it? Fusion sealed their story forever they can't go forward and going backwards we got Other M
Why are these so good? And can we demand a live-action trailer for Metroid Prime 4?
Insert random comment about Federation Force being bad even though many people probably haven't played it.
Insert predictable reply about how I feel about said game based upon cultural programming.
