@lioneyejr What else we saw new (I might miss something): The grappling beam (although we saw pictures before. I wonder how that works btw), we saw what looks like the wave beam at 2:01, 2:33 boost ball? i wouldn't bet on it, i think it's more something like the chozo statues that can hold you, but it might also be a form of shinespark, since it's clear at 2:48 that she uses shinespark...deffinately gonna be a bigger game than i thought it would...
@palientologist Keep in mind that this is a story trailer, not a gameplay one; Which I'm sure will be all about Samus. I'm guessing most of the story is about Samus, these Marines, and Ridley.
@mechaviper I have happened to notice a heckuva lot of ass shots to make up for the lack of jiggiles. Oh, no doubt that I'm likely to at least rent this and play it to completion at some point. But judging by the quality of Samus' voice(Shellshocked and being a social recluse does NOT mean a droning monotone!), I'll be playing with the voices turned all the way down.
@purplecowadoom My god youre right i completely forgot about that thank you for correcting me but theres has to be another game when and Why Samus left the Federation she was still in it during Metroid -Metroid 2 including the Prime Series face it Other M wont cover much on why Samus left the Federation
@alwynnan no theres still unsolved questions what about the secret ending of metroid prime 3? i bet they make a sequel or prequel game like this after prime 3
anyone noticed samus used a stackable beam ice/wave beam that she fired at some skree enemies above her? it's not just the wave beam. if you look close the last skree gets frozen.
@wildzeromadness The thing die-hard Metroid fans want the most is al least a back story of the series. A in-depth back story. We've been waiting over 15 years for a damn back story and we finally get it. That is the point of this Metroid game... to finally answer those 15+ year-old questions. :D
I always loved on metroid that they put in every new game, an arranged version from the good old Super Metroid Score in it... My god i need Other M so much, i don't want to wait any longer. After the whole Prime Series i am so happy they'll made again a non First Person Shooter out of the Series and go back to the roots, just in a new design~ That's how Metroid should be~ Btw wonderfull Version from Ridley's Battle Theme
@BlaizeTheDragon havent you see any space horror movie? a abandom space station, people going to investigate, aliens that attack the people, the black guy died first, then the latin one, the smart guy is kill too, one of this people sacrifice himself to save the rest of the group, they discover something important, the boss betray everybody and later died, the main character blow the space station and save himself or isnt it? (is not spoiling, is something that everybody already saw)
@animetodamaximum yeah we need a game between prime 3 and Metroid II. One in which the space pirates actually do SOMETHING evil (finally) with their metroids promting the federation to order their extinction.
@3rdSamurai I think they've kept the game on the short side to keep the cost on the game as low as possible. I mean, they took a HUGE risk. They took risks in any way possible: Innovative gameplay, making Samus finally talk, revealing the person behind the suit, teaming up with Ninja Gaiden! If only more companies would try to take risks like that. As you said, if would be nice if the game had more exploring and gameplay time. And damn, it looks like I missed out on a great 007 game.
@Andyrolled Agreed, i really thought that they were going to make a Metroid Prime: Hinters for Wii after catching the 100% ending of MP:3, think about it, it was Syllux's ship afterall...
@druidboy01 the prime series is set several years after the events on zebes so they probably did change their suits. (I only know this from a walk through I got with prime 1).
@EvanTheFox :D I want to hug you. I'm just feeding the troll because it's interesting. I'm extremely happy I pre-ordered this game. Even though school comes out soon, I want the days to pass by more quickly so I can get this game quicker!
that was pretty awesome, not sure if I'm a shooter fan though, all I have is Sin and Punishment SS, and Kid Icarus on VC and I played some megaman games too I'll probably pick this up though, its Nintendo after all :)
i wonder what the plot is because why the hell are there space pirates? Space pirates only appear when there something of great value like phazon or metroids but so far there hanst been a single metroid what so ever but as i recall the last metroid was killed so any ideas what the plot might be?
@Discobear93 See? This is what I mean. You left out the part about needing to have 49 energy or less and no reserves, and that you have to hold down L, R, and X until the move starts. You also didn't answer the question about the combos. I'm sure there's lots of people of equal or greater fanaticism than myself, but you aren't among them.
@Recola1000 AUGH!!! I'm sorry Recola, but looking at your comment made me want to gouge my eyes out and scream. Samus Aran is her name, the armor is a suit she wears, and the arm cannon is not fused to her actual arm, but instead to the suit. May I suggest some research on Samus Aran?
At the end sequence, Adam screaming Samus' name? And holy crap James Pierce DOES look like David Beckham!!! Who's the first one to point that out??!!! :O
@Rane909 I actually think that was just meant to explain where Metroid Prime: Hinters fits in chronologically in the Prime series... It's not actually after the first Prime game like most people still think it is to this day for some reason... (Probably because the order of the game's release) That said... For whatever reasons they so sought it fit, the Prime series has now been officially deemed by Nintendo as "non-canon" to the series overall plot... (Which is straight up BULL in my opinion)
Im sooooooooOOO fucking ready for this game to come out. I cannot wait for it. Just thinking about it makes me all giddy and wanting more. Team Ninja's Ninja Gaiden games were amazing, and with Nintendo teaming with them, we'll most likley have an epic adventure that will be one of the best in the series. I have my hopes up. I have money ready to run to walmart stright after school ends to pick it up, then to play it on end skiping homework till I get to school the next day.
Man I hate how it takes the good Nintendo games so long to advance the story in the series but it seems like every time it is well worth the wait! BTW 2 people missed the like button but youtube could do a better job and not have them so close to each other. Why not put like on the left and dislike on the far right past the little views counter.
@juventinorocks I kno not original but the metroid for snes. I play that game still all the time and love it. Theres just parts i dnt know will be as fun playing 3d. Im sure it will be an awesome game. Guess im just so used to the slide screen for metroid.
did anyone else noticed that @2:40 there are only 4 GFeds instead of 6? D: and i think the ones that are missing are lyle and maurice, well thats just my opinion idk tho
@4ragorn08 Metroid and Halo are both brilliant game series. The plots are completely different, but they're both amazing. :D Reach and Other M are the two games I'm looking forward to this year. :D
@Discobear93 Really? Trivia? And you even screwed THAT up. There are TWO optional beams. Pretty sure I've beaten Super without plasma too. All plasma gives you is extra power and armor piercing abilities. You don't need it to get to Mother Brain. Now then, since we're on the subject, maybe you'd like to answer a harder question: What are the effects of Samus' four charge beam-power bomb combos, what are the requirements for executing the crystal flash, and how do you execute it?
i always wondered, who is Justin Baily ? was he simply the name samus would have taken had they chosen a male lead ? or is he another character in the metroid universe
Hell yea I seriously can't wait to play this game.. I'm really REALLY glad I bought a black Wii bundle a while back.. look at all these great games coming out soon lol Finally the Wii is a damn good addition to the rest of the big systems :) (yea yea I'm sure it was a "good" addition but notice I said DAMN GOOD.)
@palientologist I agree that Metroid is taking a different direction, what with all this human interaction or the lack of "being alone", but I think fans are tired of being in the dark. We need the story element because that's what makes a game nowadays. Graphics and weaponry alone cannot sell a game unless you're just bred stupid to play those games. But it's not like the troopers follow you every step. From what I've seen, there's plenty of alone time.
@tetrisclock In other words, that was addressing your comment about it odd for a black dude to be speaking Japanese, even though there were other ethnicities speaking Japanese as well.
I'm loving that melody(so dark and omnious) right at the beginning,it brings back that old sckool metroid feel.
@lioneyejr What else we saw new (I might miss something): The grappling beam (although we saw pictures before. I wonder how that works btw), we saw what looks like the wave beam at 2:01, 2:33 boost ball? i wouldn't bet on it, i think it's more something like the chozo statues that can hold you, but it might also be a form of shinespark, since it's clear at 2:48 that she uses shinespark...deffinately gonna be a bigger game than i thought it would...
@palientologist Keep in mind that this is a story trailer, not a gameplay one; Which I'm sure will be all about Samus. I'm guessing most of the story is about Samus, these Marines, and Ridley.
3:00 RIDLEY!!! (Reflection on Samus' visor)
Well, well, well. Yet another reason to keep my Wii for a longer while. Thanks for the video.
@Flash11I19 NO, Metroid 4 (AKA Metroid Fusion) takes place AFTER this. however this DOES take place AFTER the entire Prime series
@megamanX20X Yes, that's Adam. Other M takes place before Fusion so he's alive and well in this title.
@mechaviper I have happened to notice a heckuva lot of ass shots to make up for the lack of jiggiles.
Oh, no doubt that I'm likely to at least rent this and play it to completion at some point. But judging by the quality of Samus' voice(Shellshocked and being a social recluse does NOT mean a droning monotone!), I'll be playing with the voices turned all the way down.
Metroid has a kick-ass story that always has me back for more.
@enterprise0709 I know, i was talking using the "remember me" joke.
@ScarPredator040365 Actually, this is a direct sequel to Super Metroid. So it isn't a prequel or anything like that.
@purplecowadoom My god youre right i completely forgot about that thank you for correcting me but theres has to be another game when and Why Samus left the Federation she was still in it during Metroid -Metroid 2 including the Prime Series face it Other M wont cover much on why Samus left the Federation
@internisus well actually if they still used that style for every metroid game, wouldn't get repetitive?
@alwynnan no theres still unsolved questions what about the secret ending of metroid prime 3? i bet they make a sequel or prequel game like this after prime 3
anyone noticed samus used a stackable beam ice/wave beam that she fired at some skree enemies above her? it's not just the wave beam.
if you look close the last skree gets frozen.
@0503892811 If you really listen to it, you can hear that it is in fact still "Samusu". The "su" at the end is kinda clipped, but it's there.
@purplecowadoom ok then here a question
What is the only optional beam in Super metroid?
@druha10304
same here, I can feel the nostalgia in this trailer. Seeing the wave beam in that trailer made me feel all happy for some reason,lol.
This game is looking out good. I'm still waiting to see if it's all just fancy cut-scenes or if the game itself will actually be enjoyable.
umm did i miss the memo cuz y do the galactic federation soldiers have different suits than the prime series? did they decide to change?
Is it just me, or when Samus screamed in japanease at the end..it was cool seeing Samus show emotion?
@enterprise0709 "The universe is in danger, we have to kick some ass!"
@wildzeromadness The thing die-hard Metroid fans want the most is al least a back story of the series. A in-depth back story. We've been waiting over 15 years for a damn back story and we finally get it. That is the point of this Metroid game... to finally answer those 15+ year-old questions. :D
I always loved on metroid that they put in every new game, an arranged version from the good old Super Metroid Score in it...
My god i need Other M so much, i don't want to wait any longer.
After the whole Prime Series i am so happy they'll made again a non First Person Shooter out of the Series and go back to the roots, just in a new design~
That's how Metroid should be~
Btw wonderfull Version from Ridley's Battle Theme
this looks like one of those games you will keep playing over and over and over....
Looking good. Hopefully the English version of this story trailer does not lag too far behind.
@casper9013 It scatters charge beam shots around samus, it shows it at 1:56
Holy**** this looks good! I can't wait to get play this game!
@sterbehilfe01 how does this look like a cheper version of super smash brothers!? i dont see other smash charitors in it
Only about two weeks. I can't wait to play this game.
@TheToenninga the short version has been obvious to me for a long time now. I need the detailed version =)
@jaws5204 :D WONDERFUL! This will be heart-wrenching and entertaining at the same time! And I pre-ordered it! I can't wait!
@BlaizeTheDragon havent you see any space horror movie? a abandom space station, people going to investigate, aliens that attack the people, the black guy died first, then the latin one, the smart guy is kill too, one of this people sacrifice himself to save the rest of the group, they discover something important, the boss betray everybody and later died, the main character blow the space station and save himself or isnt it? (is not spoiling, is something that everybody already saw)
I want to know what that diffusion beam at 2:14 does
Epic. August 31st couldn't come soon enough.
@animetodamaximum yeah we need a game between prime 3 and Metroid II. One in which the space pirates actually do SOMETHING evil (finally) with their metroids promting the federation to order their extinction.

I can't wait for this game.
You can see Ridley's reflection in Samus visor at 2:57
@EpicPlaythroughs Now 14!! What's going on??
Hurray for Megaman suits! I'm a tad skeptical seeing some trailers but I do feel that thus far it's good.
omg 2:00 that music, brings back great memories :)
@druidboy01 the prime series is set several years after the events on zebes so they probably did change their suits. (I only know this from a walk through I got with prime 1).
@EvanTheFox :D I want to hug you. I'm just feeding the troll because it's interesting. I'm extremely happy I pre-ordered this game. Even though school comes out soon, I want the days to pass by more quickly so I can get this game quicker!
that was pretty awesome, not sure if I'm a shooter fan though, all I have is Sin and Punishment SS, and Kid Icarus on VC and I played some megaman games too
I'll probably pick this up though, its Nintendo after all :)
Damn. This is amazing. No wonder I got the pre-order.
@grayfore
I preo-ordered the game this morning. Hi 5!
@religiousjedi I was talking about a home console version
i wonder what the plot is because why the hell are there space pirates? Space pirates only appear when there something of great value like phazon or metroids but so far there hanst been a single metroid what so ever but as i recall the last metroid was killed so any ideas what the plot might be?
@Discobear93 See? This is what I mean. You left out the part about needing to have 49 energy or less and no reserves, and that you have to hold down L, R, and X until the move starts.

This game is looking good. Hopfully it keeps the same exploration aspect in this game. Im picking it up day one.
@soridosuneku Yes, I know. I was just saying that whatever that thing is couldn´t be ridley because it doesn´t have wings
CANT WAIT, GETTING THIS TOMORROW!!!
2:40 That blue sky looks so strange in a Metroid game.
metroid series are the best i cant wait for this game!!!!! I MUST GET IT!!!!!
At the end sequence, Adam screaming Samus' name?
And holy crap James Pierce DOES look like David Beckham!!! Who's the first one to point that out??!!! :O
@chacrawarrior I would have thought the fact he calls her "princess" would give it away.
0;17 thats not the bsl research station?
@Discobear93
Ah, good catch! Thanks for correcting me. ^^
Sidescrolling+Platforming+FPS+Giant ass thing with an eye= Epic
@Bubbasmith94 I'm well aware of that. Godspeed to you.
You know you're badass when you are the only one not using bullets.
2:56-2:59 Ridley on Samus' visor....guess that bastard just wont die!!
This game is going to be frakkin' awesome.
@ 1:52, it's Reidley's NEW THEME!!!! Sweet!
@KawaiiDesuNekoBCSK Her voice fits her personality and experiences she experienced in life.
O.O this was my expression when i saw the video... action filled game!no other wii game can be compared!!!
AMAZING!
@boaksls
Is it christmas already?
@Rane909

@3rdSamurai lol, it IS in english, in fact, you can even BUY it, RIGHT NOW! (GASP!)
Man I hate how it takes the good Nintendo games so long to advance the story in the series but it seems like every time it is well worth the wait!
BTW 2 people missed the like button but youtube could do a better job and not have them so close to each other. Why not put like on the left and dislike on the far right past the little views counter.
@boaksls it depends...who got shot?
APPERENTLEY YOU'RE ANTHONY HIGGS.
MYSTERY SOLVED!!!
@juventinorocks I kno not original but the metroid for snes. I play that game still all the time and love it. Theres just parts i dnt know will be as fun playing 3d. Im sure it will be an awesome game. Guess im just so used to the slide screen for metroid.
@TheMostBleedingHeart im sorry i always feel like MP are last since i played the other metroid games before prime so yea lol
This looks amazing.
@iisaaaaa Yup, that guy. So you'll probably know what will become of him in Other M.
did anyone else noticed that @2:40 there are only 4 GFeds instead of 6? D: and i think the ones that are missing are lyle and maurice, well thats just my opinion idk tho
damn that looked amazing

RIDLEY THEME SOLD ME.
Shinespark is back, therefore this game is on my list.
i always wondered, who is Justin Baily ? was he simply the name samus would have taken had they chosen a male lead ? or is he another character in the metroid universe
@grayfore I got the pre-order a month ago, too xD
In japan the black guy never dies... hes always either the comic relief or the person that supports you more.... xD
Hell yea I seriously can't wait to play this game.. I'm really REALLY glad I bought a black Wii bundle a while back.. look at all these great games coming out soon lol Finally the Wii is a damn good addition to the rest of the big systems :) (yea yea I'm sure it was a "good" addition but notice I said DAMN GOOD.)
@cholifut2
I think it just caught her by surprise.
@jogarort You half expect him to jump out of his armor in a football jersey and shorts and kick the Space Pirates asses with some good old football!
so is it hitting store in september...in japan, or america
or is it both
I'm happy I preordered.
@ThePivotAdventures Chuck Norris is a Metroid?
@palientologist
I agree that Metroid is taking a different direction, what with all this human interaction or the lack of "being alone", but I think fans are tired of being in the dark.

But it's not like the troopers follow you every step. From what I've seen, there's plenty of alone time.
@alexdom2
Ooohh. Yeah, the super hot one. I remember now. Of course, the power beam, how can I forget.
@tetrisclock In other words, that was addressing your comment about it odd for a black dude to be speaking Japanese, even though there were other ethnicities speaking Japanese as well.
@chacrawarrior I hope your not trying to spoil anything.
ridley's theme sounds BADASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
