Before you comment "Ackshually it's called Lower Norfair", please remember that Nintendo has been officially referring to this song as Magmoor Caverns for years
I know someone's doing a 3D mod/remake of Super Metroid, but the name escapes me at the moment. That's what the model reminds me of, even though I know it's from Smash.
Yeah it does. Only time it flops imo is in prime where magmoor's theme just is a straight up remix, it makes it feel more generic than if it had its own music, even if it has a similar vibe like in dread.
its kinda sad that the hot area it's always hyped with that theme, i liked when was more mysterious/calmer, this shows a area that is way more dangerous than the upper one
It really does tho. I'm actually surprised I still feel this way everytime I play Super Metroid, considering of how any game after it just used Lower Norfair as "hot place theme".
That uncanny af PS1-esque model of Samus going ham to "Hot Fire Place" music at a smooth frame rate is something I didn't know I needed in my life. This is officially my favorite video of 2021.
Every time I hear this song I envision an underground Zebesian military parade in lower Norfair, with the main rhythm being footsteps and the drawn out horns at the beginning as actual instruments some pirate plays. Just too awesome
Honestly my biggest beef with dread, severe lack of tunes, it had that awesome dark theme that would play when samus got pissed but it was never very long
Makes me wish there was a Metroid with higher quality 2D sprite work but 3D environments/elements. If Symphony of the Night could come out in that same generation, N64 could have had a pretty kickass Metroid title.
I'm no Metroid fan, but when I was recommended this, I had a gut feeling it was gonna be this song. I love when I'm right regarding things I know little about.
Took a Second to notice she was dancing to the Percussion for most of the start before transitioning into rockin with the Chorus But I Love that about Music and Dance in Tandem you can tell by the Flow what part of the Track someone is Moving too x3
The animation where she does the forward kicks speaks to me for some reason. Like, seriously. Whenever I hear this song, I think of that one in particular.
I'm weird. I remember the first time I heard this song years and years ago. My first thought on hearing it was 'yahknow, if I were an evil overlord, this would totally be the music I'd be blastin while rollin' up on some city I was about to conquer.'
after seeing chuggaaconroys super metroid playthrough i cant unhear "i was wat-ching te-le-vi-sion, i was wat-ching te-le-vi-sion" to the tune of the song
As a Metroid veteran (15 years), I can say that this is very accurate (thank you for putting all the magmoor caverns themes I love all of them and make the hot Zones in Metroid feel more deadly)
@@milddiffuse and the reason why it called "Norfair Ancient Ruins" it's because canonically Ridley hasn't used that part of Norfair (formally Ridley or Ridley's Lair in Metroid 1 and Zero Mission) since Metroid 1 and Zero Mission and those games took place at the beginning of the timeline which is before the Phazon Crisis to which Zebes has been Desolate for a few years in the Metroid Universe. Now, Norfair Ancient Ruins must have been a temple of sorts for worship similar to how that Tourian was used for planet wide counsel meetings (as seen in the manga) and just the temple in Norfair's depths hasn't been used in a very long time probably for hundreds maybe even thousands of years

Thanks for adding this to my KB.
Ever since Prime came out, it’s been Magmoor Caverns, and that’s understandable, as Prime’s version of this song is the best in the series.
whoa i didn't know that, thanks for the info
Should have used magmoor footage instead of lower norfair to remove the confusion.
@@ImJCyo Don't overthink it, just groove
Seeing that awesome N64 Samus model makes me wish we had a Metroid 64.
Imagine Prime but N64, that'd be funny
I know someone's doing a 3D mod/remake of Super Metroid, but the name escapes me at the moment. That's what the model reminds me of, even though I know it's from Smash.
Aww, that'd be really cool XD
@@M0D776 Aww, that'd be awesome, wow! I wo der what that would look like! ^^ Cool idea!
@@RexcorJ Ooh, that sounds really cool, I didn't know about that! Thanks for sharing! ^^
2:05
She was vibing, then she forgot she entered the caverns without the varia suit.
speedrunners: _amateur_
@Austin Igert Speedrunners: "My goals are beyond your understanding."
She just decided to do a reverse boss order for a change
@@UnderscytheJS She said: "Fuck it, I'm going to kill this purple space bastard first"
"She"? Isn't Metroid a dude?
metroid really has that "aw yeah it's the lava/hot zone, time for some sick jams" bit down really well
Ironically in Dread it’s the water area that has the best ambient jamz
Yeah it does. Only time it flops imo is in prime where magmoor's theme just is a straight up remix, it makes it feel more generic than if it had its own music, even if it has a similar vibe like in dread.
Yep lol. Cataris continues this tradition nicely
Sixstringpsycho don’t rip on Cataris like that, it’s a jam as well
Like Mario does.
what is now just simply "the theme of a hot place" used to be so much more...
it used to be the theme of a REALLY hot place
Ok boomer
@@_mirenai metroid prime hunters came out before I was born..
@@GamingWithCalvin1 i was just joking
@@_mirenai it's not 2016 anymore, nerd
its kinda sad that the hot area it's always hyped with that theme, i liked when was more mysterious/calmer, this shows a area that is way more dangerous than the upper one
Prime fans: it's Magmoor Caverns
2D fans: it's Lower Norfair
And the Lower Norfair version is better anyway
People who have only played Samus Returns: its the music from the hot rooms
I was gonna say I didn't know what magmoor caverns was.
I now know
How about Ridley's Lair
@@rootbeer_666 It depends on each one, personally the prime one seems much better to me.
I like to think this is the kinda stuff Samus does when she completes a mission.
In my head canon she has solo dance parties in her ship.
Nobody gonna mind the fact that the background is "reverse boss run"
Reverse Boss Order to be precise ;)
Who says it has to be Samus doing RBO? Maybe she just wants Screw Attack?
Prime was my first ever Metroid game, and so when I played through Super and reached Lower Norfair, my brain did a fucking cartwheel
Same!
This is a more highly anticipated sequel than Metroid 5 and Prime 4 combined. I love these animations
The rag-doll at the end was perfect. This is the best one yet
Metroid dread was great though
Man hearing this really encapsulated the feeling of “I’m coming for you Ridley! You have nowhere left to hide!”
It really does tho.
I'm actually surprised I still feel this way everytime I play Super Metroid, considering of how any game after it just used Lower Norfair as "hot place theme".
@@milddiffuse I played super last but it still made me feel that way
I fkn love the Magmoor Caverns theme, always bop the arm cannon to it in Prime 1. The animation does it justice 👍
i hope you're doing it again now :)
@@noapparentfunction twin sticks makes it a little harder but yea I did xD
@@Master4lyf1 now that it has motion gyro controls i'm unintentionally making Samus bob to the music as i walk around
Can we all appreciate how perfectly synced the dance moves are?
The Chozo blood that Samus was infused with not only gave her heightened reflexes, speed and agility, it also gave her perfect rhythm.
1:37 is the goat
1:20 meshes so perfectly with the beat lmao
That uncanny af PS1-esque model of Samus going ham to "Hot Fire Place" music at a smooth frame rate is something I didn't know I needed in my life. This is officially my favorite video of 2021.
It's a slightly modified version of Samus' N64 model for the original Smash Bros.
*Hardcore and Average Gamers -* What the hell makes you say Super Metroid is the greatest game ever made?
*Me -* THIS FKN SONG!
I just want to send appreciation for the fact that you actually put the effort in to sync the animations to the tempo
Makes sense that Samus has rhythm. She was a soldier, soldiers know how to keep time.
man deserves a proper congrats and hug for this one huh
i actually need all of these animations isolated as gifs
I NEED
I have a *MIGHTY NEED!* For these gifs as well.
Every metroid fan when prime remastered is announced:
Every time I hear this song I envision an underground Zebesian military parade in lower Norfair, with the main rhythm being footsteps and the drawn out horns at the beginning as actual instruments some pirate plays. Just too awesome
It looks like Samus overdid the dancing. Damn is she exhausted.
Nap time.
I really like dread but it did not have any sick jams to bop my head or hum along.
Yeah that was a let down for sure. I can only remember the songs that originated from previous games.
Hey the final boss theme was a banger
Dread has some catch tunes though.
hey , there was a few one that were also good in Dread
Honestly my biggest beef with dread, severe lack of tunes, it had that awesome dark theme that would play when samus got pissed but it was never very long
when metroid music plays
OK ngl, this made me laugh more than I should care to admit
My chest hurts from laughing so hard at this, its a masterpiece.
The transition from Super Metroid to Metroid Blast/Nintendoland was really well done
OH WAIT I hear Samus Returns and Metroid Prime too my bad
Nintendo Land was awesome wasn't it? Surprised they never made a sequel.
@@ianfinrir8724 Being on Wii U probably killed any chances for a sequel
Hope to see it on switch but I'm not holding my breath
@@BashPrime I don't see how they could feasibly port Nintendo Land to Switch without major compromises.
You may be the first to notice the transition, lol
this song will just slap for all eternity and nothing can change that
Everytime i see that Model, i am glad there was no Metroid on N64.
It was definitely worth the wait for Prime 1, but n64 models do have a certain charm to them.
Whenever I see this model I feel sad that there is no Metroid 64
Speak for yourself. It probably would've been jank but I would've liked to see it.
Makes me wish there was a Metroid with higher quality 2D sprite work but 3D environments/elements. If Symphony of the Night could come out in that same generation, N64 could have had a pretty kickass Metroid title.
People seem to forget that games looked different on CRT TVs.
I don’t blame you, that theme is a jam in every iteration!
Samus gangnam styling on me is something that will haunt my dreams tonight
I'm no Metroid fan, but when I was recommended this, I had a gut feeling it was gonna be this song.
I love when I'm right regarding things I know little about.
everyone gangsta till Samus reveals she's actually a dance goddess
0:54 That's how I dance; only it's usually alone and without the power suit.
I got bored of Samus stupidly dancing but still couldn't get myself to turn the video off-- This track is the best!
Glad I'm not the only one who thinks the Magmoor Caverns theme slaps.
That’s gonna be the entire fanbase when Prime 4 comes out.
I love Jammin' N64 Samus so much please never stop making these!!! 😁
The person who made the song. “So what did you think?”
Person in charge “It’s going in the lava area because it is fire. Here is your raise”
This is what happens when all Metroid fans are excited for dread and it just finally came out and this is their reaction
This is a really hot beat
I’m really gonna miss those comments that are basically “The dislikes are from the Space Pirates”
Praise be; new Metroid memes and animations since _Dread_ released and the UA-cam algorithm saw fit to bless me with this bounty
i've watched that like 10 times. it gets better and better
Man, hearing parts of the Nintendo Land Magmoor Caverns really makes me miss Nintendo Land. I really hope we see a sequel or a re-release on Switch.
Lmfao literally howling with laughter the entire video. Perfect 😂💯
I really appreciate that this is actually on beat.
Truly one of the best Metroid songs in existence!!
This is so freaking epic, eargasm to my ears.
This just makes me wanna start my Power Suit cosplay sooner. Holy shit, I wanna do that dance in the suit.
Damage run time
I’m dying but I’m grooving
Such smooth animation that captures the feeling perfectly. Well done!
Please release these transparent GIFs of your low-poly Samus dancing. I love them so much.
The best song from one of the best soundtracks, ever.
The beat aligns so perfect with those default dance animations... I love it
This song just keeps going, you think it's gunna de-escalate but then all of a sudden it becomes an even bigger banger godDAMN
This went into both my favorites playlist and my top videos playlist before even reaching 30 seconds.
I've always like Metroid Prime's rendition most.
I want to see her dancing suavemente like ganon of terminalmontage
I always feel determined when I hear this song. Something resonates within me and makes me feel like I have a job to finish.
I love when Samus just starts busting a move
I had 2 minutes left before I had to leave. I'm glad I spent it doing this.
You can't have a really hot place without a really hot track to acompany it.
I love low-poly Samus.
Samus dropping at the end killed me.
And her.
She is dead now.
My god that’s hilarious, and a badass remix to boot, too!
Super Metroid has the best music.
Smooth as SILK
I love low poly Samus. She's too cute.
Are we just ignoring the fact this man just ran around in Magmoor Caverns without even a Varia Suit?
I love this song in all versions
It's 7am, time to dance to Magmoor Caverns
Took a Second to notice she was dancing to the Percussion for most of the start before transitioning into rockin with the Chorus
But I Love that about Music and Dance in Tandem you can tell by the Flow what part of the Track someone is Moving too x3
I really like this videos, but I must ask why your prefered samus model is the one that has 7 polygons
It plays nicely with Mixamo. Also because Super Metroid is a retro game.
@@metroidhunter72 I feel that 👊
Rule of Funny?
My mate, you gotta do phendrana drifts depths!
Samus'll be going hard on those moves!
I'm so glad this isn't only my jam.
The oldschool "Fazon Fusion" mix of both Warrior's Fire and Magmoor Caverns is what I think of. Absolutely legendary.
Samus when the last Metroid is still in captivity:
2:06 When the last Metroid gets stolen.
I need a gif of that Samus gangnam style lmfaooo
Samus has some nice moves.
The animation where she does the forward kicks speaks to me for some reason. Like, seriously. Whenever I hear this song, I think of that one in particular.
Samus do be vibing
This is how she celebrates the completion of a successful mission.
man u mixed both the snes version n 3ds, sounds very gooood
all 5
I'm weird. I remember the first time I heard this song years and years ago. My first thought on hearing it was 'yahknow, if I were an evil overlord, this would totally be the music I'd be blastin while rollin' up on some city I was about to conquer.'
Love seeing low poly Samus dancing xD
Why is it so perfectly synched?!
Thank you for making this. Samus is always running into Fear and Trauma and I like seeing her have a good time.
I needed to watch this. Thank you.
I'm so happy to have lived to get here, the pinnacle of all evolution.
This is the only dance tutorial I need
Me and the boys when the Metroid Prime 4 trailer dropped
after seeing chuggaaconroys super metroid playthrough i cant unhear "i was wat-ching te-le-vi-sion, i was wat-ching te-le-vi-sion" to the tune of the song
All I can think of is NintendoCapriSun singing now.

Samus dancing is pure.
With what she's been though, she's allowed to dance.
This will be playing at my funeral along with "my superhero movie" and the piraka rap
1:31 Oppa Samus Style
The Chozo not only trained her as a warrior, they also taught her their ancient style of dancing.
samus dancing is something i didnt know i needed in life
As a Metroid veteran (15 years), I can say that this is very accurate (thank you for putting all the magmoor caverns themes I love all of them and make the hot Zones in Metroid feel more deadly)
I'm only going to tell you this because you proclaimed to be a metroid vet. The song is not called Magmoor Caverns thank you very much.
@@milddiffuse I know, it's originally called Norfair Ancient Ruins in Super Metroid

Would love to see one of these for the Chozo Lab in Samus Returns
I have a sudden urge to play metroid prime 1 again
It's been almost 20yrs. I still haven't beaten Metroid Prime's Core Essence.
Now do one for the Chozo Ruins. That beat is a bop.
Pure quality! keep it up! can confirm jam out exactly like this. caverns plays
*chefs kiss* Perfection.
