game isn't actually that much like metroid, just shares some of the aesthetics. maybe a little like metroid 1 or 2, but if you liked metroid 3, you wont necessarily like this game
Lol this whole game is made by one person in his spare time and it's still a better Metroid game than Farce with hundreds of employers and endless budget.
I'm so happy I picked this game up years ago. I thought it over for like a full week before giving in and it was incredible. I'm excited to find out what happens in the sequel!
Metroid fans should be grateful. Be happy you got a spinoff game along with the fact of a main series game to come some time in the near future. Also this amazing indie game to quench that thirst for a 2d style Metroid game. Not to mention AM2R. F-Zero fans only have Fast Racing Neo with no knowledge of a new F-Zero game in sight. :/
"Be happy you got a spinoff game" I would with an actual Metroid. Now I wouldn't claim Federation Force is a bad game but it is like salt in the wound nonetheless. "the fact of a main series game to come some time in the near future" I mean: is there? If they had announced it right before showing Federation Force it wouldn't have gotten this kind of backlash. "Also this amazing indie game to quench that thirst for a 2d style Metroid game." Yep. No thanks to Nintendo. "Not to mention AM2R." Which is great. But Nintendo took it down. It _IS_ worse for F-Zero fans. It's painful to see a second Nintendo series for the more hardcore gamers basically ignored.
Te difference between Metroid and Fzero is that Metroid gets hella high ratings with each title. Super Metroid and Metroid Prime are some of the highest ranking games ever made... Can't say the same for Fzero, but it sucks to see both ignored.
Dude if you're gonna claim there's a main series game coming soon, you better be able to back it up. It's been 14 years and people are a little testy about it
moistsqueegee 95 it's actually been 9.5, almost 10 years... but FF (the garbage it is) does tease the same ending as Prime 3. And the series producer mentioned something vague about Nx... but I agree with you.
I meant the 2D games as main series. Prime is good, but Super, Fusion, and Castlevania Aria of Sorrow and Dawn of Sorrow will always have a special place in my heart. You wouldn't believe how angry I was when I found out they cancelled Metroid: Dread in '05
Been waiting on this one for a while. This will definitely fill that Metroid void. No celebration of 30 years of Metroid from Nintendo so this is the best we'll get. Don't even bring up Federation Force.
Federation force wasn't that bad the only reason it's bad is from bad timing and because multiplayer is the best way to play it and Single player makes it harder
Kind of hilarious that the next great Metroid game came from an small indie team not even associated with Nintendo. Guess we'll take what we can get at this point
AM2R: A new fan made game that is similar to Metroid games, has Samus as the main playable character and includes power ups Samus used in previous official Metroid games. Nintendo shuts it down. Axiom Verge: A new fan made game that is similar to Metroid games, but doesn't have Samus in it, or any of her power ups, instead having an original main playable character with his own power ups. Nintendo gives it space in it's online downloadable game store, the Nintendo E-Shop. Huh, I wonder what the difference could possibly be? (I know what the difference is.)
i love how the tips and tricks are think before you act, dodge enemy projectiles and use your glitch gun on everything because that is what it is there for.
That last wall you're going down is also a hidden area with a helpful tool hidden away in it. 🙂 The part I'm stuck on is a little ways past that so the video didn't help much with what I needed to know bit it was a great intro for people interested in trying it but want to know more about it first 👍
Hello, I have been a fan of the Mario series since I have ever touched a gaming system, and one of the best games were Super Mario Sunshine! I was wondering if it would be possible to have a Super Mario Sunshine remake or port on the 3ds? Also, many kids born in this generation probably never got the chance to play Super Mario Sunshine! I think kids today and everyone else would love Super Mario Sunshine on 3ds. Is it possible?
+ActiveGamerLife hahaha but the animations of the character are similar to the contra series , for instance when he runs and jump. Anyway, dont take it too serious Xd
Nintendo allowed an awesome omage to Metroid to be on their console *before actually making an ACTUAL Metroid game of their own*? SMH come on, Nintendo.
Diego Samuel No, this is awesome, but this year is literally Metroid's 30th Anniversary, but it is getting absolutely no love! Look at how they treated The Legend of Zelda's 25th Anniversary: concerts, books, games, the whole kit and kaboodle. We don't need to talk about how Pokemon's 20th anniversary is being treated now (perfectly). So what gives with Metroid? Metroid arguably gave birth to the action-space genre, preceding the now-famous series Halo, Mass Effect, Dead Space, and literally every video game of that genre and theme since. Metroid also had the first female protagonist in video games ever! So again I must humbly ask Nintendo *why are they ignoring Metroid*? One can even argue Federation Force to be a tribute, but let's not go there. Basically it really feels that Nintendo has abandoned Metroid to the point where third parties have to make spiritual successors just to save their amazing yet dying series.
Harman Smith Apparently so. I just wish Nintendo would pay more attention to their amazing selection of great game titles, you know? Nintendo has great games outside of Mario, Legend of Zelda, and Pokemon, and many of these other game franchises can be just as relevant if only more attention was given towards them. Also, Metroid is Nintendo's most mature series, and if I think that this franchise could be a great way for them to compete against Microsoft and Sony who are best known for their intense and remarkable mature games. So yeah I know that Metroid isn't as big of a deal to a ton of people, but that does not mean that their games are no less amazing and worthy of attention. But of course, this is all my personal opinion.
where is the correct place to make complaints about nintendo games like splatoon. the game has had 11 updates since launch where are they viewing the complaints to then update the game??
This was a great game especially over a year ago when it came out on PS4. I'm surprised Nintendo let it come out on there systems as controlling as they are
As a huge Metroid fan I fell in love with this game after playing it for mere seconds. Shame on you NIntendo for not giving us this, but with Samus.
It isn't even from Nintendo. That makes more sadder. :c
+Red Bird *it
They did 1 year later
@@44bigfreeze Samus Returns just doesn't feel like 2D Metroid to me without the pixel graphics.
Hope you're doing well now that Dread (FINALLY) came out!
Metroid 5 looks great actually
game isn't actually that much like metroid, just shares some of the aesthetics.
maybe a little like metroid 1 or 2, but if you liked metroid 3, you wont necessarily like this game
+Dr. Bread How exactly? It looks like an absolute tribute.
Dr. Bread
Just because it tries doesn't mean it succeeds.
PauLtus B game isn't too bad, but i can't exactly recommend it.
Dr. Bread
Not claiming it is. But it'd be stranger if it actually WAS on the level of Super Metroid.
best metroid game in 10 years, i will buy it again for wii u
Not exactly. It was first on Steam and then made It to Wii-U. Idk If It made It to XBox one now..
+Emishimaru - Sama actually first on ps4 cause Sony helped him finish it so it was exclusive for a couple months before steam
Oh! U.u
Have you played hollow knight?
Hey everyone, this is Dan Adelman, the guy who made this video. :) Thanks for checking out Axiom Verge on Wii U!
How does it feel to hear that this, along with AM2R is probably the best Metriod related content we got in a long time, especially after this year
The one man who made this game, Thomas Happ, announced Axiom Verge 2. This is a great time to play the first game if you haven't, its fantastic
That glitching gameplay sold it for me. Great job Dan, you just got one more sales.
No, he means Dan Adelman
Lol this whole game is made by one person in his spare time and it's still a better Metroid game than Farce with hundreds of employers and endless budget.
indeed
I'm so happy I picked this game up years ago. I thought it over for like a full week before giving in and it was incredible.
I'm excited to find out what happens in the sequel!
The new Metroid looks good.
the best metroid game we've gotten in years
Technically it DID come out back in 2015. Plus, we did get a fantastic 2D Metroid in August.
That just got a dmca email by nintendo of america so the creator can't make anymore updates
+groudon 909 he can do it in secret
my opinion is different oh no someone leaked this huge content update guess there's nothing he can do about it
Nintendo won't make a metroid game, so these guys made it for them
this guy* it was all done by 1 dude
yet they still took down am2r rather than buy it, which would make them mo' money
Same thing happened with Fast Racing Neo
creative username :And yet he wants to make a 3DS version of Axiom Verge? Hahahahaha nope not going to happen because the 3DS is officially dead!!!
This is the real metroid
it is better than FF but cant beat the originals.
+BlindCat i actually enjoyed it more than a actual metroid game, just saying
+vidya gaems i didnt say my opinion is a rule.

there is still am2r, the fan made metroid 2 remake. You can still find download links all around. And you should play it, because it's fantastic.
Federation Force.
+HoundBlue omg another Cave Story fan!
Federation force wasn't that bad the only reason it's bad is from bad timing and because multiplayer is the best way to play it and Single player makes it harder
+Blackvenom It simply isn't a Metroid game outside it's title. Axiom Verge is like a Metroid game in all but its title.
wake me when the NX is revealed.
CAN'T WAKE UP
WAKE ME UP INSIDE

Federation Force rules.
federation force got outdone by an indie game that was made by 1 guy
But they're different genres, so how can they be compared?
+collin taylor you mean AM2R? The fan remake that took 10 years to make and then got taken down by Nintendo? Poor Metroid :(
Brad Bailey oh I was talking about axiom verge but yeah that is another 1 man indie dev that outdid Nintendo
collin taylor Neither Axiom Verge or AM2R outdid 'Metroid.'
They are merely ripping off what came before without actually innovating.
I honestly don't know why it took so long to come to a Nintendo console, but I'm glad it finally is.
Axiom Verge is an amazing game. I recently beat it on my PS Vita and I'll probably play through it again on Wii U.
This is awesome!! Love the classic tips and tricks...and especially coming from the developers themselves. Keep it up!
Kind of hilarious that the next great Metroid game came from an small indie team not even associated with Nintendo. Guess we'll take what we can get at this point
*Small indie guy
FTFY
Yet this isn't part of the Metroid franchise in anyway...
+Zchannel0923 I know it's not, I meant in the sense that it's a spiritual successor to the 2D Metroid games.
BlooeyKazooie But you blatantly call this a new Metroid game, so you're at fault.
***** But its not. Axiom Verge is in the same genre BUT NOT THE SAME FRANCHISE.
Looks like we finally got a new classic Metroid game
Man i need to get on playing this- bought it on sale a few months ago and just haven't gotten around to it yet. Looks so awesome.
As soon as I started the game and was told the guns in the next room, I went left instinctively
AM2R: A new fan made game that is similar to Metroid games, has Samus as the main playable character and includes power ups Samus used in previous official Metroid games. Nintendo shuts it down.

If anyone hasn't played this game, I really suggest you do. I played through it blind and really had fun. 😄

The part I'm stuck on is a little ways past that so the video didn't help much with what I needed to know bit it was a great intro for people interested in trying it but want to know more about it first 👍
I want this game so bad, please give it a physical release!
Kinda like FAST Racing NEO for all the F-zero fans out there.
Great tutorial!
Well, at least this is more Metroid than Nintendo has been in the past 6 years.
man this game looks fantastic!
any metroid fans out there this game is a must buy no need to think about it just do it.
Now I wanna play Super Metroind again.
Hey, I remember Dan. He used to work at Nintendo with independent developers.
I'm not the only one getting an HR Geiger feel from this am I? I mean, almost everything looks like it's biomechanical.
I want to play this alongside Federation Force, it looks really amazing!
this is actually better than super metroid imo, bigger map, more items and weapons, great replay value, and an awesome story overall
Wow i will maybe get this
When Federation Force gets beaten by an indie/fan game....TWICE!
true
Fantastic soundtrack
Been waiting on this to come out on the 3DS!
Good video
0:00 - 0:35
All you need to know, also at 0:30 he kinda says it.

Will we get Axiom Verge for the 3DS or is not powerful enough?
When Metroid meets Contra
Lol
It's actually not like contra at all. No weapon drops from the sky and It isn't linear levels with the only objective being to kill.
+ActiveGamerLife hahaha but the animations of the character are similar to the contra series , for instance when he runs and jump. Anyway, dont take it too serious Xd
When Mario met Zelda and Contra we actually got Metroid 1.
2:30 to 2:40 how’d he get from the first boss to this place I don’t even know
I don't even like Metroid and this looks amazing.
I remember playing this. This was awesome.
Trying to make it up for mishandling a Metroid game, huh?
boy, UR sharp one are YE ? nothing gets by you does it.
metroid
Very beginner level tips and tricks
This is not the Metroid game I have been waiting for. This is not what we deserve.
More Metroid that Federation Force
Game Is fantastic!
Just asking : Can some bosses be glitched, too?
This game reminds me of Super Metroid and Cave Story.
I thought Nintendo sent Cease and Desists to fanmade Metroid games. But here's one on their store.
What a game!
Please add online sharing and ID search for Mario Maker 3DS...Like,seriously pretty please!
such a good game.
Step 0: play metroid
Step:1 complete Metroid
Step 3: ????
step 4: profit
So this and AM2R are both metroid games not made by nintendo which are much more prefered than Federation Force and Nintendo shut AM2R down...
porqué no pusieron a Samus. prácticamente es metroid, y el personaje es muy pequeño, pienso que un poco mas grande mejoraría el aspecto
Looks like Metroid.
Yea he literally says its based off metroid in the beginning. Do people watch these videos anymore?
+pryt86 Most people on the internet seem to have an attention span of five seconds.
+Lord X yea, or they expect other people to give them a run down of the video, without watching it.
Yoo this looks just like METROID!!
Can someone help it is hard to aim diagonal on ps4 because it just keeps making me move
3DS port, pleeeeease!
JamKaret :Give uppp!
dude make a physical wii U release! and dont forget about us in europe.

That's what I find really funny about this.
Are you saying they shoulnt have allowed this game??

How I can communicate with nintendo??
was the last decent 2d game. I honestly think it's better than Metroid.
Is this game on the U?
What about Super Mario World 2 Yoshi's Island for Super Nintendo
fire everyone working on the metroid games and then hire Tom Happ to work on a traditional game all by himself. PROBLEM SOLVED
indeed, this along am2r are the best metroidvania titles we have recieved in a long time
Switch version?? Where is it...
It's here
On the e-shop and on stores.
Rip. Nintendo 3DS we hardly knew ye.
Played this on PC
OK COOL AWESOME VIDEO NOW MAKW IT CROSS BUY WITH THE 3DS/NEW3DS/WII U AND ILL BUT IT NOW NINTENDO
Doom 2d version?
More like Metroid
What's a Metroid? You mean like that robot lady they keep putting in Smash bros???
cavemancolton
Yeah, that's him.
i hate when he jump cuts to the first boss now i dont know where to go
You copyright struck am2r but endorse this?
It has it's own unique content.
Harman Smith im not dissing this, im calling out a seperation of thought at nintendo
this game actually looks really sexy
Rip 3DS we hardly knew ye.
what kind of Metroid is it-?
when a fan makes a metroid game nintendo takes it down but now theyre selling a one year old metroid rip-off??
This isn't Metroid... Well.. I'll go back to waiting for a new one.
still should support it it's a fantastic game I played it a year ago. I give it a 9.
+lmmortalSoldier I feel ya, I'll give it a chance.
id buy on 3ds...
durkadur27 :Keep dreaming because it’s never gonna happen!!!
Lembra muito Metroid! Jogo muito bom! Parabéns! ^^

This was a great game especially over a year ago when it came out on PS4. I'm surprised Nintendo let it come out on there systems as controlling as they are
but, its a better Metroid clone than the ugly federation force is.
Not too sure on this glitching play mechanic. We'll see......
yooo its soo fun. works real well with the game when you get to see the other glitch you can do. when you find secrets its so rewarding
How much does this cost?
Go to the Nintendo eShop and find out.
Thanks for the helpful reply
Cloudy Days NP.
And Nintendo censored Metroid AM2R? DAT JOKE!
Pretty difficult game at times. Definitely not made for kids.
I want it
This was not processed by Nintendo
