@@Zeppelee Same here I love the atmospheric and adventurous tone this one has. And even though I'm looking forward to Dread I hope in the future they can put the Prime Trilogy on Switch cause I miss playing those classics.
Damn straight sister 👍🏼 just acquired 100% pickups with the last four scans + boss fights to go. I could easily play this again for like the sixth time but onto MP2 Echoes I go 😎 the music plays a huge role in the atmospherics imo! Then again, every aspect of the game is perfection.
When I first played him when I was 10 years old my heart pounded uncontrollably, not because I was fighting the final boss it was because I have never seen a boss in video games look so alien, something your mind couldn't comprehend. If you played this game during the Era of its first release you will understand the fear Metroid Prime brought to gamers in 2002.
I kid you not...the Sheegoths on Phendrana Drifts were my biggest obstacle in Metroid Prime. I literally had to "Leroy Jenkins" my way through the rooms they were in. And don't get me started on the Sheegoth boss.🥶😵
Perkilator XIII that would be so badass if Metroid Prime made a cameo in ultimate as a final smash, like if it was Prime core’s form and it used its hyper beam or something
@@perkilatorxiii5179 I'd like to see her either transform into her original form for the final smash or summon a Leviathan to smash into the stage and coat it in Phazon.
Hopefully Smash 6 will make Dark Samus more than just a clone. There's limitless opportunities for differences in movesets... remember Roy, Ganondorf, and the Link clones all got vastly different over time, I trust Sakurai and Nintendo to make Dark Samus the badass that she is.
ImpossibleIsNothin it was actually based on the lead concept artist’s self portrait lol. He hated his job and was doing 1000 self portraits (one per day). So he snuck one of them into the game ;)
Metroid Fusion is the scariest game I've ever played. Scarier than any other game, or movie I've ever seen. The atmosphere of the game and how it builds up the SA-X, and how powerless you are to stop it was terrifying.
I just beat the game and I have to say, this is definitely the best final boss I've faced in years. You really have to remember his attacks and be ready to avoid them while using all the equipment you had gained throughout the game to damage him. Plus it's so satisfying in the first phase when he switches to ''wave beam mode'' and you can just absolutely wreck him with the wave buster.
I always love the Prime series... the realistic feel to it is beyond words. The alien worlds... it is like walking into a true alien world with your own two feet.
i still dont think there is a final boss that is this fuckin good in terms of learning the mechanics and using all of the beams power ups and visors its sooo fuckin good and rewarding after such an epic game
I remember the first time playing this at 7 years old. My body trembled and my imagination of how badass this boss was. I'm 22 years old now, and still have the same feeling playing against this boss every time. What makes it even better is learning about the Lore behind this creature. If I could polymorph into any creature, I'd choose Metroid Prime. He is just badass.
@@ashgonza92 the Metroid Prime is cool as Dark Samus, but I prefer it in its original state for how much it appears to hate you. Hard to gauge its hatred when it’s wearing a helmet.
One of the greatest boss battles of all time, and a perfect example for a perfect final boss. The soundtrack is badass, the look is great, the intensity is immense and keeps on growing during the many phases of this long battle. But what I love most about this how you need to put everything you have learned over the course of the game to use here, how you have to use every little thing in Samus considerable arsenal to bring this thing down. I remember how I thought that the idea that he constantly changes colours and you have to accordingly constantly switch to your weapons and NOT only use your fire-and-forget Plasma Beam is genius 20 years ago, and I still think it is. Also, the lore behind this thing is awesome as well. If I remember correctly, when you scan him, it says something like that he is an "evolutionary error". That idea has always fascinated me. the other bosses are mostly successful predators or more-or-less perfectly designed war machines, but Metroid Prime is an exception. He is a creature with no place in the world and no purpose, and he still is immensely powerful, but without any useful direction for his power. I find that concept equally fascinating and disturbing. Gives me Dark Souls 3 Gael-vibes.
In my book this is how a final boss should be. You've heard about it in chozo lore entries and the pirate data entries, and even though you don't know exactly what it is(In the first playthrough atleast) you can still sense its presence on Tallon IV through the phazon corruption. And then you're standing there, face to face with the Metroid Prime, and it's gonna take everything you got to take it down.
WiiManElite Ah. You've misunderstood what I said. I said that's what happens if a Leviathan, which comes from Phaaze, hit a planet and if a Metroid is next to the Leviathan.
WiiManElite the lore covers it. Basically, the chozo find phazee and get super scared of it due to the radiation of the planet, and the creatures that inhabit it. The chozo then Decided to wipe out all life on it that could harm the universe, and creates the first metroid. The planet devours a large majority of the chozo bodies and grows sentient, having their memories. It then proceeds to launch the metroid back to Tallon IV with the crumbles of chozo armor as an insult and reminder of how it bastardized Phaze. The Metroid gains its own sentience and self awareness as well due to Phazee, and transforms the armor it had with it into an Exo Skeleten to protect itself.
People call this "EASY"? This thing tore trough every missile and Energy tank I had ON NORMAL MODE. Also, try navigating the Impact Crater and getting to Metroid Prime with full health, I DARE YOU.
When I first found out the name of the boss in the official guide book in a store somewhere, it was hard for me to believe it at first because it's just weird that a boss is named exactly after the game itself.
nope. i see one too. i played trilogy version of this game and completed it (when during the night before the day i completed the game i got no sleep) but when i opened that door i just immediately saw this blood chilling face, and thought "what in the everloving heck is this"
You know, fps boss fights tend to suck. But metriod prime probably is one of the best final bosses of all time. No small feat. It just keeps pushing you, asking you to use all of your abilities, juggle multiple targets, understand all of your abilities. It's always increasing in tension.
I never used to get why the metroid prime died the way it did… until I found some concept art. It’s not just detonating. It’s mutating at such a rate the it’s dna is falling apart. When Samus irradiated its brain it was so overloaded with radiation that even the creature was overwhelmed. It started to fission like a fission metroid. But it could not stop the mutation. It keeps dividing over and over becoming a mass of copies. Until it fissions unevenly. Resulting in less and less perfect copies. At this point it’s just degenerating. The shrieking faces of the metroid degenerate into blue formless phazon which then starts to detonate. The exterior of the creature starts to rapidly expand ripping the brain apart with it as the creature shrieks in excruciating agony. Until finally it ruptures and dies but not before storing some of its brains in Samus’s phazon suit. Which would lead to dark Samus being created…
The problem with that is missile combos run through your missiles very fast (especially the Wavebuster and Flamethrower), even with all missile expansions.
Real talk, Metroid Prime (the boss) is fucking terrifying in concept and excecution. You just take something that's already scary, have it consume a metric shut ton of Phazon, and watch the word space jellyfish turn into a big-ass space crab demon looking thing
I still remember the suspense I felt walking into that room the first time 15 years ago. The eerie Impact Crater soundtrack really made me wonder what was waiting for me at the end of this epic adventure, and reflect on how far Samus had come. You had just defeated your arch rival, Ridley, in battle. What could possibly be next? Then the awesome boss music kicks up and it's go time. One of the best final bosses I've ever played.
It’s such a shame samus had to lose her phazon suit. Design wise that’s the sexiest thing I’ve seen in a long time even till this day. The light suit doesn’t compare lol
This is my favorite boss in Metroid period. It played with your expectations at a time people didn't roll their eyes at another "giant spider" boss. And it's almost human face... Wish the final design resembled the concept art a little more though.
Anybody else pissed he didnt use super missles or like anything but beam weapons it took him towards the end of primes final form to realize that the power bomb was best to use with the metroids prime summons also only 115 missles oof
Out of all the spider bossess. This in my opinion is the open one I can call an actual spider boss. I love fight Metroid prime. Fast moving, heart pounding. What more can I ask for😎
My favourite thing about this fight is that Samus comes in and slow walks up to it to see what's up. Then the thing just buries into the ground and Samus just runs straight after it doing full on olympic gymnastics to face it head on. Its such a good display of character.
Fun fact: Each of the six glowing "holes" below Metroid Prime's face in its exoskeletal form contains a rather realistic-looking white eye, the same eye seen on Dark Samus's hand in the secret end cutscene (and on several parts of her body + in the center of her morph ball in Prime 2).
I remember when I was a kid I made it to this final boss in the game, but for some reason I never beat it. I died to the second phase of this boss and didn't want to start the fighter over I guess? Anyway I'm here because I'm planning on playing Metroid Prime 2 for the first time on emulator and I needed some closure.
Ill always love that little narrowing of the eyes Prime does at 12:58. always seemed to me like he's saying "OK, I'm done running Bring it." then Samus rushes at him like ok here we go.
I miss when Metroid Prime was just Metroid Prime and not Dark Samus. The latter just doesn't feel as threatening as the giant abomination of a Metroid you fight at the end of this game.
I beat this thing on Hard Mode yesterday. Had all the Energy Tanks and Power Bombs, and nearly all the Missiles, and I barely made it. Extremely satisfying, though!
On hard mode this fight takes forever. You have to dodge more often and anticipate what's coming. Also having a ton of missles and using the beam missle combos helps too
This game works well in dolphin vr. It's one of the best, or maybe even the best, vr game I've ever played, and it should be experienced by any Metroid fan
One of the best games ever made. It was the sole rason i bought the Gamecube to begin with. And it never disappointed! One of the few games i completed 100%, scanned every nook and cranny. Totaly worth it. Even if i lost months of my life.
I am very disappointed this player did not use Super Missiles in the power beam phases. Super Missiles can home if locked on. This boss fight would've been 10 minutes shorter if they had done that. Ice Spreader also do a ton of damage.
At some point, I like to imagine Samus grabbing both Chozo and Space Pirates by their collars, saying “STOP TOUCHING THINGS” and shaking them violently
So bad ass because its one of the first times where "The Boss" is running away from YOU and you're chasing it down attempting to destroy it
It realizes that Samus is no pushover
Such a cool design :D and interesting too
Lol ya. It give you the feeling of being extremely powerful, which also makes you feel accomplished because all of those upgrades you found yourself through hard work.
The Metroid prime thought she was the Apex predator on Tallon IV that is until she met samus

Metroid prime is all like "you're not backing down, are ya? ...ight, COME TO MY WORLD."
It's seething because it already has learned its place after meeting Samus. It hates Samus.

One of the greatest games ever made for Gamecube alongside Mario Kart Double Dash and Timesplitters 2.

Das sum epic anime shit right there. Wait... now I want a metroid anime.
This is 4 years old nmow, but holy shit you have missiles you know. I heard Super Missiles do wonders on pretty much all Bosses.
this game was so scary as a kid. what a great game. truly one of the best.
I beat this thing on Hard Mode yesterday. Had all the Energy Tanks and Power Bombs, and nearly all the Missiles, and I barely made it. Extremely satisfying, though!
On hard mode this fight takes forever. You have to dodge more often and anticipate what's coming. Also having a ton of missles and using the beam missle combos helps too
@@MrDarksword123 oml hard mode on prime 2 💀💀💀
Metroid Prime in [hard mode]. Now that is a challenge!
Not really Samus is too powerful and too many tanks...
This game works well in dolphin vr. It's one of the best, or maybe even the best, vr game I've ever played, and it should be experienced by any Metroid fan
I came from the future to say that the remastered version now is avaliable on Switch!!!
Honestly, I find how he looks before you fight him to be the most disturbing, especially with how you first find him in the crater.
The design of metroid prime is so fucking good. And the soundtrack fits perfect. This game is a flawless masterpiece.
Metroid Prime: *Just Viben' in a cacoon*
Samus: Outrageous, someone needs to put a stop this.
no he deserve get hunted down because he is the source of phazon that is bring slow turn tallon IV in an wasteland
Probably my favorite boss battle ever. Well my favorite since the final Super Metroid boss battle.
The first time Samus fights a Leviathan Guardian...
But can we talk about how cool looking the Phazon power suit looks like?
I planned my own Maytroid month and the music for Prime Boss itself is a BANG.
One of the best games ever made. It was the sole rason i bought the Gamecube to begin with. And it never disappointed! One of the few games i completed 100%, scanned every nook and cranny. Totaly worth it. Even if i lost months of my life.
Should rename it to, "Metroid Prime Final Boss Fight Without Using Missiles"
still looks fantastic even though Its probably considered dated now in terms of the visuals
oh man i remember having so much trouble with this boss fight as a kid
I am very disappointed this player did not use Super Missiles in the power beam phases. Super Missiles can home if locked on.
This boss fight would've been 10 minutes shorter if they had done that.
Ice Spreader also do a ton of damage.
two boss fights.
Carapace of Prime,
Metroid Prime the Corrupter.
god it feels the same as N'zoth . but damn do both feel good.
That one time where there's no "countdown escape" at the end of the game.
2:45 my dude couldve had him out in 2 shots if he used the ice spreader 😭
At some point, I like to imagine Samus grabbing both Chozo and Space Pirates by their collars, saying “STOP TOUCHING THINGS” and shaking them violently
I like when you think the boss fight is over but it’s not
That door lock sound before it’s about to go down
