[ShadowOne333]

Could this be of any use?

Gonna have to try Metroid Prime Hunters with the 4 buttons mapped to the C-Stick.
Finally proper aiming without the need of the touchpad.

If and when you find it, mind dropping a link in here? I'm sure plenty of people here could use it.

I edited my previous post. Better have it here too.

Thanks man! Not sure if I'm going to use this or not. With this new game not being locked to 8-way aim, this swap would actually be kind of a nerf to your aiming ability. Still glad to have this for a few other games, though!

It does work, C-pad still controls as normal though so can no longer switch between abilities. And you are right, free aim is ruined with the D-pad. I'd like this setup and switching to the C-pad when free aiming and running around using the D-pad... And if you circled through abilities you could have put that on select since it seems to do the same as start... now though it is either impossible or I would imagine very difficult to fix. Was really cool for about 3 seconds until all the downsides made themselves obvious.

My thoughts so far: using the Circle Pad feels uncomfortable, 2D Metroid is better with a D-Pad. But, the Infinite Bomb Jump is back! But, Wall Jumping is nerfed, it forces you in the opposite direction.

Fair warning, spoilers ahead, but the game completely nulls one of your complaints in this post, you'll see. If you don't care about spoilers, look below.

Spoiler

There is an ability called spider ball that strait up lets you climb walls and ceilings in ball form. Wall jumping on the same wall is no longer needed.

I completed the first area. They changed a bit compared to the original. So far the game feels like a reimagination of Metroid 2.

Do you think this will ever come to the switch?

Metroid Prime 4 for the Switch.

Argh! Why am I stuck already?!

I just killed my first Metroid brain thingy, and I'm in the next section. There's some statue that doesn't seem to do anything, some block I can't get past, and some weird yellow panels on the wall that I can't wall jump on.

Can anyone help me please?

Heh, so you killed one Metroid all and all? Just look at a video walkthrough on youtube.

The Spider Ball has also been nerfed. The game devs thought it would be a funny idea to cover large portions of walls and ceilings with a yellow slippery substance. Oh yeah, and for more lulz, they added fans to prevent bombs from working from specific sides.

Spoiler

Also, fuck that chase scene. Felt like I was playing Ori/Super Meat Boy. Both of which are awesome games, but do not want those shenanigans in muh Metroid.

The statue shows you how many metroids you have to kill, in order to lower the purple acid. The "yellow panels" are slippery substances, which prevent wall jumping and spider ball crawling. Because the devs thought it would be a good idea to restrict the use of those abilities. I couldn't say which block you are stuck at, I just got the Space Jump, and everything in between is a fucking blur. Hint: This game does NOT give the Space Jump as early as AM2R does. Just use the Scan Pulse Aeion to highlight breakable blocks. I feel like some veterans would say that you do not actually need the Scan Pulse, but I found this game kind of disorienting, so I went ahead and used it.

I'm just after that. I lowered the water. The statue is kinda Jesus-y looking.

If by "Metroid brain thingy" you mean the original Metroid form, the larva, then you are at the end of the game. After you kill all the larvas, you have to face the Queen.

im stuck in a certain part i can't jump high enough to get back its in a room with yellow stuff on the walls and and single enemy coming out of a hole

 

[MisterJay]

it was

I saw an unboxing video today of the Samus Returns Special Edition. I wonder is it likely that the game will be leaked before release?

It think it's already leaked. You can even find a pirated version of it online

This is exactly where I was stuck, but I figured it out. There's a spot a bit left of there where you can shoot out the floor.

I started playing about 24 hours ago, got the Space Jump about 4 hours ago from now. Yeah, games like this are like alcohol/caffeine to me, I go hard. Funny thing, I don't drink alcohol, and actual caffeine does not affect me.
