      As a respectful request, could you please play Fusion or Super next? And once you are done with one, could you do the other please? I’m sure you have a lot more stuff planned (like FF7 if I’m correct), but when you get the chance, would you mind?

      Metroid was pretty much in a relative golden age when Prime Pinball came out. I never understood the hate it got, I was just happy to see my favorite series doing well enough to get a Pinball game, like Pokémon did. I found it enjoyable aside from the shoulder button control scheme that would send nerve pain shooting up my arm if I played too long. Otherwise, a great Metroid themed Pinball game. It was Other M that later put the series on ice, and I don't think Pinball compares to Federation Force's announcement as Pinball came not long after Zero Mission and Retro was still making Prime 3, whereas Federation Force was announced at a time when the last official Metroid game was many years ago and considered bad. Not a good time for a spinoff.
      TL;DR Metroid spinoffs are okay as long as we are also getting actual Metroid games.

    If you're hungry for some pain, Choc, I'd recommend the 0% run, where you don't grab any missile or energy tanks. It's really rewarding and not nearly as hard as I thought. I'm nowhere near as good at gaming as you are and I was able to do it on Hard Mode.

    Man, as a lifelong Metroid fan who's absolutely IN LOVE with this game, it's a joy beyond joys to see all these new people get into the series with this, and STICK WITH IT and LOVE IT despite the insane difficulty (SERIOUSLY, this is BY FAR the hardest metroid game which is really saying something, even as a vet I died probably 100 times total my first time through).
    All the jokes and editing are amazing (and like I said in other videos you've got yourself a new fan with this series), but my FAVORITE thing is seeing your amazement as Samus' increase in power throughout the game, going from dying constantly but sticking with it to saying "oh we have cheats now, we have a game shark, now we've unlocked Dev Mode" etc etc., like you see now one of the BIGGEST appeals of this series: You start small, weak and alone in a big scary alien environment, you die a ton, you learn, you grow, you progress, you expand, then before you know it you're reaching endgame and becoming so powerful you feel outright BROKEN compared to other video game heroes. And that's just how it ought to be. Especially given how much it matches Samus's 10/10 badass characterization in this game

      Raven Beak is not her father. He just claims that she is his daughter.
      He alongside Grey Voice (the actual Chozo Donor Samus considers a father) both gave her a Chozo DNA transplant.
      So on a genetic level they are her fathers, but she was originally human.
      Her original Father died while saving his family on K2-L by blowing up Ridley. Ridley of course survived that

      Maybe a Samus Returns Switch Port? Even if the graphics are the same without too many improvements, it would be nice. I'm usnure if they should remake Zero Mission since it is already a remake, but Fusion could use it, since it is rather short apparently

    With the way Metroid Dread ends, Samus now has 5 dead genetic parents. Her two human parents killed by the space pirates when she was a kid, Ravenbeak & Old Bird, the two chozo who added their DNA to hers so she could use their technology, and the baby metroid, who's DNA was added to hers in Metroid Fusion's opening to fight off the x parasite that infected her.
