Fear not, Metroid faithful, for I have arrived with the silver bullet that will down the wretched beast that is Other M. Behold!<br><br><b>-The Gravity Suit</b><br><br>Let me explain:<br>At the end of Super Metroid, Samus is clearly depicted wearing her purple armor, indicating she is wearing the Gravity Suit. No arguments about that, right? Good.<br><br>Other M is stated to be the <i>"direct"</i> sequel to Super yet, both in the intro and later in-game, she doesn't wear the Gravity Suit at all or ever. Instead, the game states that the Gravity Suit never existed but rather it was a function of the Varia Suit, portrayed as a colorful haze that surrounds her.<br><br>THEREFORE,<br>Other M is not canon because it depicts a vastly different Gravity Suit that directly contradicts the previous title and the series as a whole. Every other game shows that the Gravity Suit exists, even the Prime games have Samus don the purple and green. <br><br>Boom, there you go. Other M is now gone in a puff of smoke. Sakamoto may have made Other M but his decision to change a single detail turned out to be the downfall for his magnum opus. Feel free to use this argument if ever Other M rears it's ugly head again.

That trade of Other M to Mario Strikers was a very good trade

Fun fact: Unless you count Hollowknight, this is the only Metroid game I’ve played

The bit with Frank had my husband and I laughing so hard. Hope to see more from you, one of my fave creators because I know it’s well placed rage 😂

You've got a real knack for making videos. I hope you keep it up - I think if you were consistent with it for a couple years your channel will really take off. Great stuff man.

Each time you point the controller to the TV it activates slow motion for a short time.<br>You can just stop pointing at the TV and point back to get slow motion.. pretty easy.<br>Also you can dodge too while in first person !<br><br><br>I finished the game 100% two months ago and did not find this hard.. <br>But "investigation" in first person mode can be super frustrating !<br>I was my first time with this game.<br><br>Also they took a lot of ideas and gameplay design from Other M to make Metroid Dread.<br>It's not a bad game, a good spin-off, I liked for what they tried to do.

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pnDsWfAtSYo&t=386">6:26</a> - You actually can dodge while in 1st person mode, it's just the game never actually tells you that, because of course it doesn't. It still doesn't make the 1st person sections good or anything, but it's there... I guess

Honestly, this game deserves a whole ahh remake, the concept art for the characters you can see from the gallery was amazing Idk why they made them so different in the end, most of the map is classic non linear metroid, only thing i'd change are those annoying "oh, you can't actually solve the puzzle, you have to give up and trigger a cutscene" momments. The combat feels stylish and whould be a 10 out of 10 for me if it had a dedicated dodge button instead of spamming direction and classic health and missile drops instead of the charge mecanic, also no mandatory first person, maybe an option to switch between 3rd person and a prime-like mode (I did use classic gamepad and 3rd person missiles mod on my first playthough tho, so i might be biased).<br>If they only made Adam less of an a-hole, made the Ridley pokemon the reason samus can't use her habilities, (maybe she agrees to giving Adam the authorization keys for her weapons under direct orders from the federation and then the little chicken fuq steals the keys and scatters them around the map). It'd make the twist way cooler, you start thinking it's a cute goofy boi, but then turns out to be a deliverate savoteur. Also, Samus being scared of Ridley? completely skipable, replace it with anger and the shame of falling for him when he was a cute furball. Oh, and they could make Sylux the deleter since that plotline went absolutelly nowhere, maybe make him steal his iconic armor from the federation lab in the end and add him as a bonus bossfight?<br>Anyway, this has been my pitch for "Metroid Rain-B" (name pending).
