metroid dread... based the events of metroid fusion... but this game never released.... WHY NINTEDO WHYYY???
Those long nights, hard to sleep through. Every breath, every sigh, every cry I make as I see the series die. - Codename. I have a feeling there`s something legal against Metroid Dread. Perhaps copyright issues with the name or idea? Maybe someone suggested the game plot and name to Nintendo.

I always thought that it was cancelled (if it existed) because it was shit but then they release Other M and I can't imagine Dread being any worse than that pile of shit that came from sick that came from shit that came from sick.

It would be wise for anyone to not talk bad about Metroid M while i'm around. Or else i am going to get very angry and force you to watch the ending of MassEffect3.
It was shit.
The gameplay was shit.
The story was shit.
The ending of Mass Effect 3 wasn't THAT bad.

You son of a bitch! I Challenge you into an old-style year-1600 French duel.
I'll only win, all I'll have to do is recite a line from Other M and you'll be paralysed.

*ahem*

Hey punk! Don't you know how to treat a lady? Let me teach you a lesson about subtlety!

lol
Wasn't that line awesome or what?
Metroid M is old school so that's why it's awesomeness overshadows your opinion.

My turn:

Awesome story.
Hot chick.
Kick ass camera work in 2d or 3d.
Phat music score.
Phat skillz and finishing moves.
Cool enemies.
Black guy.
Big tits (see hot chick) which can be enlarged with a hack.
Just phenomenal game overall.

You haven't played Other M because none of those reasons were true at all and there is no way it's "old school".

2d is not old school? This is the only game that closely resembles Super Metroid for SNES.
I believe your French gun misfired, allowing me for one extra turn.

Fluid graphics. Detailed storyline with attention to details in graphics, voice, music and length.

You're incorrect. Clearly you are in a state of denial, which is understandable, who would want a shit Metroid game? It's kinda like a person who sees something traumatic as a child and blocks it from their memory and replaces the memory with something good and happy...though I assume that you are still a child what with that "French" quip, (for the record most Brits don't see being called "French" as an insult, some of us are actually enlightened don't hold grudges for something a nation had no control over though we will troll a thread if a game in a great franchise is shit).

Of course I am joking, though not about Metroid Other M being shit.

Graphically it was serviceable, I've seen better Wii titles. It was quite generic in design, as if the people involved have had no artistic merit but could draw a person to look like a person.
Voice acting was vomit inducting but then if I had read that script I wouldn't have had bothered in putting effort in either.
Music was again, serviceable, nothing special. It was no better than background shopping centre music.
The length would have been just right if it only included the Ridley battle and nothing else. Other than that, it was way too long.

If you've only ever played games by Popcorn Arcade or Phoenix Games then yes this is a good game in comparison, but Other M is not a good game when you hold it against a mediocre title. Suffice to say, this is the worst Metroid and this is coming from someone who found Hunters and Pinball to be mildly entertaining.

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
    Karma177 @ Karma177: @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really...
