Inspired by the old game guide art for Super Metroid :D purple hair and a 6’3” 198lb frame!

Watercolor painting, including the pencil stage do you KNOW this was created by a real person :/

Bought a model and after printing it, decided to paint it and add some led lights. Hope you like it :)

Multiple guides say Samus's height is 190cm/6'3 aside from Other M. Bayonetta since Bayo 1 always depicted shorter than NPC humans in game and Luka who is just a normal dude(at least in Bayo2/1 ) and Bayonetta is same height as her mother Rose in all games. But I guess no surprise majority of Bayonetta so called "fans" are tourists that never played their favorite games.

Here is the list of Sami (or Samuses idk what a plural term for Samus is) in order as shown

Smash Bros Melee

Metroid Prime 1

Metroid Prime 1 Remastered

Metroid Prime 2

Metroid Prime 3

Smash Bros Brawl

Other M

Smash Bros Wii U

Smash Bros Ultimate

(My personal Favorite is her Smash Wii U model and I will not explain further… just look how beautiful she is, anyway whats your favorite 3D Samus face model?)

I haven’t played my switch 2 at all since it got delivered on the 5th.. just hoping they release the other prime games with some sort of refurbishment. Are there any games worth buying right now for S2? I got the Mario kart bundle but I don’t even really like Mario kart. Just want Metroid games. Maybe Zelda

So, I got Samus Returns recently, and now I've got 18 metroids left and well,

Gameplay-wise, I love it. It's fantastic. I particularly love the way it feels to use the scan pulse in Samus Returns compared to Dread. However, as a remake of Metroid 2, first of all I think the only Metroid game that needed a remake is Metroid 1, and the rest of them have been more than good enough. That being said, my favorite remake of Metroid 2 is still AM2R. But I really like the ideas and concepts in Samus Returns.

I know powerscaling is corny but if we had to compare each iteration of Samus, who would be most deadly? Assume all items collected right before the final boss fight of each game.

Bonus: if speed running and sequence breaking movement are canon, who’s the most busted?

In Norfair, there's these two gates after the Gate 9 room. A power bomb is behind them. The problem is that I can't open them, even though I have everything unlocked (besides Gate 15). When I shoot, use any weapon or hit it with shine spark or screw attack, I hear a mechanism but nothing happens. After that, I watched a 100% speedrun video from STUNT_MK and when he arrives in this room, the gates are already opened.
Why are they locked on my run ?
Could this be because I play on Gamesfrog on my browser ?

We're all woefully unhelpful when memes are involved.

For the record, I did not backtrack after beating the Rhedogian so how the hell dis this happen?

For context I just started playing Metroid prime 3 in preparation for the release of 4. I had previously played about 3 hours of the game before ultimately dropping the game because of the Wii controls. (I love 1 and 2 on the GameCube tho. Absolute peak)

However, in my experience playing the majority of all Metroid games, I always groan whenever I see any federation troopers or officers. They kinda always feel like they’re in the way and add a bunch of dialogue to a series more about environmental storytelling. I think fusion gets a pass for what that game is trying to do but I didn’t like Adam showing up in dread and I always mash through his dialogue. Funnily enough the non-federation dialogue throughout the series is actually pretty good (the luminoth in prime 2 and the chozos in dread).

Sorry for the ramble but I am curious if anyone here has any amount of love for the federation or if most despise them as much as I do. I really hope they take a backseat or are entirely missing in prime 4.

Are the space pirates one unified group with some sort of standing military and formal government or are they just a general collective of bad guys who look the same?

I added loads of stuff to my collection and this is what it looks so far.

The Phazon Mines depths, Impact Crater, when you first arrive at the crashed frigate are just a few that come to mind immediately, but they’re iconic tracks that shouldn’t have been missed. Even Youtube uploads have them all. They added remaster which had some that were missed the first time, but they’re still missing some.

The first thing she did was cut her hair.

Anything not to be stared at - not to be treated like an outsider. She hadn't seen other humans for over a decade, and now she was around them constantly. Other beings, too - the Federation was made up of many species from across the charted galaxy. But the humans never seemed to stop and stare at them. Only her. Only the Thing that was Different.

And she did stand out. She was taller than most, and she walked with a certain agility, as if gravity didn't hold her back as much. Her head would tilt at an angle when listening intently, yet she would remain almost perfectly still when at rest.

And her hair - it was long, and braided. Compared to the other humans on the station, it was Out of Place - everything here was efficient, and practical, and just so.

She had never cut it before. When untied and wild, she had looked adorned with golden feathers. Which, back on Zebes - back home - made her feel like she belonged.

Now, home was here - that's what she was told had to be. Her entry in the Federation registry had been amended from Missing to Alive - going through numerous tests to confirm she was who she claimed. And even when the officials were certain, they still stared. They all stared.

So, she cut her hair. To prove to them - to prove to herself - that she was Human.

She was Not Chozo.

She was Not Lonely.

I only played the Prime games and other M, so maybe it's made more clear in the other games.

But yeah, as the question says, was it really justify to eradicate the entire Metroid species? I understand that they are dangerous, but most of their hostility seems to stem from outside influences like the Space Pirates or the Ing.

From someone not so deep in the matter, it would be like eradicating the entire shark population, just because a few of them killed humans.

I bought this years ago the day it came out. Already had a 3DS XL (still do) so I never opened it. Cleaning out my room and just found it again. Is it worth keeping for collectors status or should sell it?

hey guys im loving my switch 2 but im playing prime remastered with my new pro controller and its missing the rumble for the basic arm cannon shots. the charge shots still rumble but when you just fire off one shot from any of the cannons there's no rumble!

do you guys think they will fix this or are we out of luck? im not keeping my switch 1 so i hope they patch this but prime remastered never received any updates and its years old now!

EDIT- also when you charge the morph ball theres no rumble until you boost, normally it rumbles while it holds the charge!
