Let's all hope to get Metroid Prime 2 Remastered coming to Switch
@@theenderkirby Yeah but i'm not sure Prime 3 getting Remastered since 1st 2 Prime games are still better than 3rd, i've seen Reviews at TH-cam!
P.S. Tutorial from Prime 3 longer than 2 Prime games
Prime 3 (1 Hour) - Prime 1 (20 Min)
this is why the Switch has nothing
@@knuclear200x You're still wrong.
@@SaltyToad00 thanks for proving me right again
I never finished MP2 on GCN. The final boss was too hard for me at the time lol
My favourite quirk with the visor is from Metroid Prime 2. There's an enemy in the futuristic area that can cripple your visuals with an energy blast, and you have to reboot your suit by holding certain four buttons down.
The Rezbit? It's sending the Power Suit a computer virus.
I was fighting some earlier. Really great idea, Retro Studios are good at putting strong visuals in.
The Rezbits are my favorite enemies of all time due to that cute little gimmick!
Johnny: MY GOD, THEY CAN ATTACK THE FOURTH WALL!
Ye i remember that, one of the most unique and coolest enemies i'v seen in any game.
Fingers crossed for Metroid Prime 2 and 3 to be remasterd!
"Hatchling" and "Newborn" are terms for Samus, not Metroid Prime.
True because Samus was raised by Chozos.
@@AggressivelyLoving And the Chozo are very prophetic, because if you read a few chozo lore entries, you learn that the Chozo had a prophecy of Samus coming to the planet and fixing it up.
And in teh trilogy version of prime 3, it is said some Chozo went back to re-habit Talon 4.
And I believe in some Metroid lore tidbit, the Chozos have very long life spans so Samus to them is still young. And in some way also means Samus is a hybrid or infused with Chozo genetics, there is a chance she lives a lot longer than others.
Came to comment this- totally misunderstood in this video. Further weird that it overlooks the big retcons about the origin of Metroid Prime itself.
I'm glad you said it because as soon as I heard that, I was about to say it.
@@georgefranklymetroid prime had it's original retconned for the wii because it was a plot hole in the gamecube
The scans from number 95 don't reference the Metroid Prime.
They reference Samus.
The chozo refer to Samus as "The newborn." because they themselves are really old to the point most of their species became infertile.
They can grow thousands of years old and the fact they relied so much on technology made their lives so comfortable to the point they didn't have to raise a new generation of chozo that would do things like, hunt for food, work the fields or build new infrastructure.
So the fact Samus is raised as one of them but she's a teenage/young adult made her a "newborn" by comparison.
I was waiting for this comment.
Came here to say this.
Yep.
I have a fun one for you, apparently my partner's family were friends of a dev at Retro and included their family's last name in a data log you can find in the Magmor Caverns with that big observation tower. It was kind of a shock replaying the remaster and seeing my partner's last name show up. Its the Monks of Gronq log.
YOOOO that’s so cool!
Always blessed to see Joey uploading Metroid content ❤️
Let's hope we get Metroid Prime 2 for Nintendo Switch 🙏🏻
One can only hope
@@mattfry6716 Indeed brother
If that were to happen, it would leave ECHOES on my mind. 😂
From what I know, the final boss is called Metroid Prime because it used to be a Metroid once - or still is. For those who have played Metroid 2 know that Metroids evolve and don't look like squishy jellyfishes with big teeth all the time. So I guess the Metroid originally got in contact with Phazon and then evolved even beyond a Metroid queen, which used to be the final evolutionary step of Metroids, at least according to Metroid 2. But I'm not sure if that's official lore or just something I heard once.
I personally think that the Metroid evolutions we see in the Prime trilogy are only caused by Phazon.
In other games like Samus Returns, Other M and Fusion, Metroids follow the same evolution, going as far as the Omega Metroid and the Queen Metroid. These are results of Aeion, a substance found on SR388, which is considered the Metroid Homeworld by the Federation. We even see in Fusion how Sector-1 of the B.S.L is based on SR388.
The Prime Trilogy follows a different evolution, with more metroids remaining in their larval form (Tallon Metroids, Phazon Metroids, Fission Metroid) but still can evolve further with increased exposure to Phazon, giving us Hunter Metroids, Metroid Hatchers and the extreme case of Metroid Prime and eventually Dark Samus (thanks to the Phazon suit)
Except there are Metroid Prime husks on Phaaze in _Metroid Prime 3 Corruption._ It's unknown how they got there. It may be a possibility that they didn't come from the Metroids of SR388. Perhaps Metroid Primes and SR388 Metroids are from the same based lifeform the Thoha used to create the SR388 Metroids.
I think from the lineage of baby Metroid to Metroid Queen, the Primes are extremely mutated Phazon charged Metroids.
The original Metroid Prime is also insanely detailed. I still remember how blown away I was when I played it for the first time. Then many years later I played and enjoyed Wii prime 3. Then the trilogy released and I was reblown away by prime 1 and I was astounded at the shear scale and amount of content in prime 2. The switch remaster of prime 1 is indeed a masterpiece...but let's all never forget that it's almost identical to the original in gameplay and even the visuals aren't as different as you might think. The effects are WAY better and much better rez textures and much more polygons but the original was some of the greatest visuals ever seen at the time. I consider prime 1 ,2 and 3 to be some of the best games ever made, and among the best games on their consoles. I LOVE seeing new players finally experience something that we old gamers new for so long. Can't wait for prime 2 and 3 remasters and of course Prime 4!.
Also I want to say how disappointed I was that we got" Metroid Prime Federation Force" on 3ds instead of a 3ds remaster of the EXCELLENT DS game "Metroid prime: Hunters". Now I don't completely hate Federation Force but it's not a game to be the lone representative of Metroid prime on a console as capable as the 3ds was. Thank Ridley we got that excellent sidesscroller Metroid later on, but 3ds deserved a Prime Hunters remake. Let's hope that Nintendo realizes what could be done with today's technology and give us a Prime Hunters remaster/remake
You're absolutely right! Most of these details were present in the OG Metroid Prime. Of course the remaster looks better, but the Game Cube version was mindblowing back when it came out. I'm really glad we can play it on modern hardware and I'm hoping Prime 2 and 3 get the same treatment before the end of this generation, though.
Prime Hunters was decent imo, really hampered by the system's limitations in its controls.
and yes, prime 1 on gamecube looks absolutely beautiful.
Nice to see another fan of Hunters
@@felixorozco4055 absolutely yes. Even though it was seriously a technical marvel that it existed at all in a form that so closely replicated the look and feel of Metroid prime, but...at the same time you are also correct in that it was severely limited by the hardware. While there were more beam weapons for Samus than any other prime game, and they were really fun to use, it was impossible to ignore that there weren't really ANY other abilities or equipment to find. Plus the locations were all REALLY small for Metroid Prime exploration. Pretty sure you could fit EVERY prime Hunters maps inside of the Sanctuary fortress map from "prime 2" lol. This was due to the hardware limitations.
But that ONE last trick it had that made it kick so much ass was the functionality of its online and local multiplayer. Playing as the other hunters was SO cool. Even though the servers are long gone, you can still do local or even play VS bots by yourself and their AI is really impressive and fun to fight against.
Would've been perfect for a 3ds remake. It could've had the scale and depth that it deserved on 3ds. Esp if it was made with "NEW" 3ds model in mind. It would've been like 3ds Hyrule legends warriors or "Captain toad treasure tracker" in that it plays on all models but is improved of played on a "NEW" model.
The bodies in space were in the original too, they were just harder to see because of the resolution
Literally everything he mentioned was in the original
13:52
It's not actually talking about the Metroid Prime, but about Samus since "Hatchling" and "Newborn" are their nicknames for her as per the Chozo lore entries of the same name.
"Hatching" and "Newborn" refer to Samus coming to save the planet in the Chozo's future visions.
6:45 METROID IN THE NCU CONFIRMED!!!
I'm just glad Metroid Prime was not just ported for but, completely overhauled for The Switch.
This being just a year after I came across a copy of the original, and was actually planning to stream it through the OG Wii.
It was quite the curve ball. After the release of Dread, I wasn't expecting anything else.
This will do until the next Metroid comes.
This game should be the standard for remastered games.
Please let there be anything Metroid in the next Direct. MP 4 trailer maybe? Or MP 2 and MP 3 remasters? Or a new 2D Metroid? I'll take anything.
The mirror, oddly enough, is my favorite object in the entire game.
Alas, a scientific error with the thermal visor exists. Having played with my new thermal camera this week, I found that Metroid's fish should not show up in the water (rather hot fish in game apparently), the visor shouldn't be able to see through, much less within the water.
In regards to space pirate zen fishtanks, there is a memo to pirate forces to terminate their because of the potential risk of phazon madness. Yeah, space pirates have their own cats and dogs on the Orpheon. :/ My assumption is that the bio-locked doors we see in the ship and mines may be their barracks, kitchens, and recreational facilities.
Also in the logs, the space pirates get Leave. Though, where they go, or what they do on leave is unknown. Probably hunt or count loot :P
Prime 2 remaster next week at the direct?
Hopefully we will see it
My dad loves metroid as well as me
This is going to sound like the biggest nitpick but im sad the red and orange scannable objects dont have the artifact like logo on them anymore its just a plain blank red/orange square. I was very upset about that when I first scanned in the remaster at the very beginning of the game.
I agree
Joey making Metroid content always makes my day! 😊
Shame about the mirror in the remaster.
Maybe if it gets rereleased as a trilogy, the mirror issue will be fixed?
One of the things i never knew was that Samus eyes once you can see her face TURN depending on the direction your facing... there's very few games which are this well made and have so many details.
One of the best games ever to be seen on a Nintendo Console, here's hoping we get Prime 2 and 3 Remastered.
Ok I need to finish this game.
Glad to see this absolutely incredible game and phenomenal remaster getting much deserved love! Anyone who hasn’t played this yet needs to do themselves a favor and check it out!
At 9:54 as you switch beams Samus quickly takes her hand of the plasma beam! That's an amazing detail.
When charging she holds the cannon in the case of Power, Wave and Ice Beams but not when chargind the Plasma beam because it gets hot as hell.
3:35 ah yes, because when you walk you really feel your hands shake, so much realism!
2:07 They did something similar. The game blinks every time you do in real life. But only if you're the only one watching.
On #96 the chozos were actually referring to Samus descending from the skies when flaahgra releases the toxins that make all the plant life wilt.
Amazing. It's crazy that the original game only took 3 or 4 years to make.
Prime 2 remake definitely coming. It’s such easy money for Nintendo and a good way to keep Metroid in the spotlight while everyone waits for literally anything about Prime 4
The impact crater not being visible isn't immersion breaking imo. The impact supposedly happened 50 years prior and planets rotate, so it makes perfect sense that it wouldn't necessarily be visible all the time.
08:50 That isn't supposed to be a mirror. The ice is supposed to refract the things you see behind it, and the way it does this is by taking the currently rendered frame (also called a Grab Pass) and moving the pixels behind the ice according to some kind of refraction texture. The only issue is, it also does this to everything rendered in front of it, so you can see things like Samus' cannon or the morph ball when you move in front of it. Notice that they dont get mirrored, but stay in exactly the same orientation. This happens a lot in games, like in Super Mario Odyssey with the water in Steam Gardens.
That hand gesture to select different beams is such a nice detail :O, It really deepens the lore to me :o
I'm pretty sure we'll get both metroid prime 2 and 3 remastered on switch and after that is when we'll get metroid prime 4.
At this point, we'll get Hunters and Federation Force remastered before Prime 4 (Oh God no, please no)
@@mitchellbrown4454chill the game was rebooted. I am pretty sure that in 1-2 years it’s done, at the very most
@@theakiwar9118 I'm joking. I'd never want these games remastered
I had two 100% runs as soon as the game came out. One on Normal and the other one on Hard. I just thought I’d better beat it on Hard while I have fresh memories of every item placement.
Back then on GameCube the game was unbelievable. And it stays like this even now in almost every aspect. Amazing game.
For the name mistakes in 20(3:58), it seems like that the narrator was reading the Japanese name of each region.
For example, the Japanese name of Phendrana Drifts is アイスバレイ（Aisu Barei), which means Ice Valley.
I just finished the game for the first time ever last night despite having bought it twice before (the GameCube original and Trilogy on Wii). Such an incredible ride! I hope if/when we get Echos and Corruption, they take the same love and care with them to shine them up; though rumors suggest those ports will just be simple up-rezzed versions and not remasters.
My final score (what I knew) : 93/108, not bad, some of these details were definitely a surprise!
I really hope we get the sequels with this much love. Damn this is a beatiful remaster. :’)
the x ray image of her hand in the cannon could show that her dna is alien-hybrid , giving her different, but subtle anatomy.
Even though I was there at launch, it's still incredible what Retro managed to achieve so long ago.
Always happy to hear Joey's voice in a Metroid video
15:28 Metroid means ultimate Warrior in the Chozo language it's likely just referring to the literal Chozo meaning rather than the species they created
15:36 I doubt it i think that MP4 Samus would be more Closer to her more modern versions Rather than basing it of the Super Metroid designs an MP2 & MP3 ZSS HD Textures of the original models.
The lore was changed after the NTSC version. The Metroid Prime is a Metroid. It probably got into the crater by mutating into a Phazon Metroid and phasing through the Barrier. It didn’t come with the meteor, the leviathan did.
A leviathan chooses and mutates a creature to become its guardian. So it chose that Phazon Metroid to become its Guardian. That Metroid Prime would later consume the leviathan itself and become the core is what happened
Phazon Metroids mutate into Hopper Metroids, then into Hatchling Metroids and Finally into Metroid Primes. Their life cycle was shown in Prime 3
Like Aeion triggerd their Alpha, Gamma, Zeta and Omega metamorphosis
Phazon triggerd the Phazon Metroid Metamorphosis
@@theakiwar9118 that is very interesting, would it be possible to link some sources where i can check this?
I thought #95 was talking about Samus? Words like hatchling and newborn feel like they would apply to how the Chozo viewed Samus, and then also - the sentence structure doesn’t make sense for them to be referring to the Metroid Prime. It says that after the plants wilt, then the Newborn will descend. The plants don’t wilt until the impact crater lands, so it doesn’t make sense for the “newborn” to be the Metroid Prime.
If I’m wrong, I’m wrong, but I feel like that makes sense. Great video either way! What a time to be a Metroid fan
Imagine the “Switch 2” comes out with a Metroid Prime 2: Echoes Remastered as one of the launch titles
OH! i never realized that outline to the phazon suit was a force field.i feel so dumb. Ever since i was a kid i thought it was just an art issue with how it was displayed because of the colors.
The inside of the metroid title screen was the same as the Gamecube.
On the arm cannon:
-The different cannons change the cannon in different ways. The power beam is the default cannon, the wave beam expands outward, the ice beam expands upward and the plasma beam elongates the cannon. Also, the plasma beam's configuration looks like radiator fins. (This carries into Prime 2 with the dark beam having the ice beam configuration, the light beam having the wave beam configuration and the annihilator beam having the plasma beam configuration).
-When you hold a charge, you can see different effects on the cannon based on what the beam does. The wave beam has a lot of electrical arcing, the ice beam freezes over and thr plasma beam glows with heat, with the outer edge of the helmet glowing from the heat.
Thank you for sharing that Mario Bros movie tidbit about the franchise’s solar system.
That little detail is what makes that movie larger than life. They really went all out to hook us up with something truly special. That’s just unnecessary but it’s such a delightful find!
Crazy enough. most of these details are in the original game showing how much nintendo loves their attention to detail
I'VE ALWAYS WONDERED WHY THE PHAZON SUIT HAS THAT SHIMMERING EFFECT!
The Metroid Prime is named as such because it was originally a Metroid that was heavily mutated by Phazon.
You can see in MP3 how Metroids evolve when exposed to Phazon, slowly resembling smaller version of Metroid Prime until you literally find discarded shells of actuarial Metroid Primes in Phaaze.
One of the best first party games on Switch, no doubt
The original game already had many cool details and aged so well. I was blown away back then, and Remastered did a masterclass again.
By the way, it didn't really make sense to see the Impact crater from space, it's not that big 😅
There are two reasons, why Metroid Prime is called a Metroid.
First, in an earlier state of development the lore of Metroid Prime was, that it was a Tallon Metroid, that phased into the meteor crater and absorbed massiv amounts of phason.
Second, in the chozo language Metroid means ultimate hunter. And the creature is called Metroid Prime, because it is the apex predator of Tallon IV
Love this game. I played and finished the Gamecube,Wii(the Trilogy release) and now SWITCH version. Only one artifact left to find. Enjoying this remaster.
I just love that 6 is something I thought was for me when I first saw that I just had to clip it and I can't wait for 2 and 3 to be remastered as well.
wow this is a great video i deffinitley noticed a few different things this game looks great too!
Can't wait to see Joey talking about "100+ Details You Missed in Metroid Prime 4 Trailer"!
Joey’s videos are the best in this channel 👌🏻
Didn't actually understand why they gave Samus fall damage in Metroid Prime: Hunters. It's kind of the only Metroid game where this happens ¯\_(•_•)_/¯
Some of these details I never realised and find absolutely mind blowing.
Yet due to the switch weird infrastructure, they were unable to get beam lighting or good visuals on the Infated visor, both of which were present in the gamecube and wii
Prime remastered actually lacks details from the original, and all mentioned details in this vid are present in the original. Nice vid though, even with missing details MPR is still beautiful
4:34 they're not cowards, the data logs demonstrate that they're intelligent, well organized, and ruthless. It ultimately just shows thay Samus is so badass she can easily take them out.
Scans indicate that even the local fauna that Samus takes out easily even early game give them lots of trouble, and their operations are mostly colossal failures, so much so that their plans on Tallon IV would have resulted in their complete destruction even without Samus' intervention. The Space Pirates in Prime are greedy, narcissistic, overconfident, cowardly, and pathetic, yet oddly overtly optimistic in spite of overwhelming failures with very little successes. They couldn't even find Samus' Gunship despite her landing so close to the Frigate crash site.
@@enforcerridley158 TBF they most likely searched everywhere but that close lol
@@BL33NBThe Pirates also closed off Chozo Ruins because of spoopy Chozos
@@triggeredcat120 Well you cant easily kill em without powerbeam soo xD
@@BL33NB Exactly 😂
With regards to 20, those are the names which the original JP version gave those two regions.
That ravenbeak reference on 91 was pretty funny how it was used.. could've made someone spit😅
I'm glad other people were sad about the missing chozo ruin mirror reflections 😂
Number 50. Those are not reflections at all. Those are mere artifacts from the way those surfaces distort the image behind them
Tallon IV being in the same system as zebes is weird.
Regardless it's awesome to know all the planets in that solar system
There's one thing you didn't necessarily miss, but instead got wrong. In number 31, you mentioned a planet called Dormine II. It's actually *Oormine II* with two o's. Hard to tell if it's an O or a D, right? I may or may not have made the same mistake in my first playthrough, but that was probably because the screen I played it on was a bit far from me. Much easier to see it up close (or if you, y'know, look it up).
This is the best remaster that I know and you can feel, how it was made with love
my most favorite game ever!!! I almost cried when I started playing this lol
The narrator announcing the levels is not in the PAL Version of the game. Even in the original, it was only when going in and out of the impact crater
Samus changing her hand position to change beam blows my mind for some reason
4:04 i think the developers should hired the narrator to do the voice actor who did the narrator to do new lines saying the "canon" names.
I think the detail I appreciate most is the force field around the suit.
The beam lighting is present in smaller narrower corridors! Except for the wave beam.
Since Phazon is radioactive, it could be an extremely heavy element, and having an extreme concentration of it may be able to influence gravity.
there is another detail that you guys forgot to add:
in the original prime, during the landing sequence,
the ship passes through some foliage when almost reaching the ground;
in prime remastered that issue was corrected.
I missed Metroid Prime 4
Hopefully Metroid Prime 4 has lots of cool little details like these!
You mean the remastered one? Not the GameCube version?
Both!
16:41 Maybe the crater seemed too large for what you actually see when going there. Also Samus went after Ridley near the blue part of the planet and nowhere near that crater.
Great video
Awwww yeah, metroid prime details.
I love the rain in that game.
It's a realistic face alright; it looks like Lucy Letby's.
Yeah i did notice a lot of things that weren't in the original.
Thank you for this, it made my day after completing the game for the 315th time lol :)
The impact crater is older than the MP3's leviathans. So of course the radiation is stronger since it had more time to decay. Metroid Prime 3's only had a couple of months time while Metroid Prime's had hundreds of years. Red phazon is just a more decayed phazon.
So many of these details were already in the 2001 release
The ice beam freezes the flamethrowers in the wii version too
4:05 I think were the japanese names for Phendrana Drifts and Magmoor Caverns.
Man the phazon suit goes hard
My favorite detail is that in the original game it actually name listed who worked on the game unlike the remake. To this day I haven't bought the remake because learning that news just bummed me out. Credit those who worked on stuff it's not that difficult.
Hey one thing you didn’t mention is how the changed the falling snow in phendrenda drift the game cube virson the flakes were much bigger witch me personally I liked better. And on the game cube you couldn’t perform a morph ball jump?
0:30 Looks like Jimmy Nuetron's brain blast to me 🧐
Hmm....many of these points sound suspiciously like they were in the original game. I wouldn't count these as being details since they were already there. Maybe a better comparison would be to show the original game side by side with the new remaster.
Since metroid prime was my first metroid, i thought the disc was a basketball
