I'm just mad there was never a shitty Metroid movie during the 90's.

What happened to the Chozo after they spawned Tzneech?

They made the Metroids to eat all the Psyker Energy and modified Samus with these genes when her pod landed on their planet.
After the Emperor reclaimed his Female Primarch, he sent her off on a mission to exterminate these "Dangerous Bio-weapons" while he quietly exterminatus'd the scheming bird people.
She was, of course, pissed to find out Big E wiped out her adopted people, and she was subsequently un-personed from Imperial History after the resulting fallout.

gross, they're like siblings or something!

Metroid pretty much defined vidya for me - Zero Mission was my first video game ever, and Metroid Prime has a special place in my heart for another reason. My parents never did the whole Santa thing, so one year when we had been going through difficult times they let me and my sister know that it was probably going to be a small Christmas when it came to gifts. We understood, and were okay with that.

Imagine my surprise when I opened my gift and found a Gamecube, complete with a copy of Metroid Prime. Some kind person had given my parents an anonymous check, so while it was still a smaller Christmas celebration, my parents were still able to surprise us.

Metroid Prime was so defining for me. As a kid, I'd never expected that a game would make me stop and gawk at the beauty, or that it would scare me absolutely shitless, or that a silent protagonist could be so heroic, or that lore was an even more compelling reason to explore than upgrades. Samus set my standards for heroes - that they're ultimately defined by doing, even if the deed is unknown and thankless.

It's nice to know that Metroid holds a special place in other people's hearts as well. It's a beautiful series, and I really hope future games do it justice.

>The Emperor
>Possessing even the -slightest- ability to fight the Chozo, let alone -beat- them.
He dies a horrible screaming death. Or if he somehow -does- manage to best them, Phaaze makes him It's bitch.

But user, of course they're both children of Ripley.

>>Possessing even the -slightest- ability to fight the Chozo, let alone -beat- them.
You act like being beaten wasn't a part of the plan the whole time...

>Space Dragon ate my parents. You?
>Demons killed my bunny.
>That's rough, buddy. Barkeep, another round!

Why are her nipples hard?

Because it's fucking cold on Zebes since Mother Brain turned off the heating.

Why aren't yours?

Anyone have a pdf of the Metroid marines rpg people made a while back?

wait is there a serious prpg metroid community?
I want this because of reasons then.

In the ultimate irony, the greatest Xeno-slayer is the one most sympathetic to Xenos.

I bet Tzeench is responsible for this.

Still no Samus/Doomguy porn.

Triply ironic is that her "Primarch Hat" was suppose to be Diplomacy and would have been Pax Imperia's foremost Xeno Relations specialist.

As it should be. Doomguy is pure. Pure rage.

Fuck off trips, Doomguy needs to blow off some steam. In Samus's pussy.

Trips confirm, Doomguy's purity is what allows him not to fall. He has no need for such things.

This is why Samus fucked that manlet boxer.

Nope, too busy trying to get his bike back.

The evidence says he wasn't THAT busy.

The zero suit was a mistake.
I'm saying that as somebody with a huge latex fetish, but it is really shitty how Samus went from badass bounty hunter to Nintendo's primary fap-bait.
Nevermind the whole Other M shitshow.

she was sexier in a bikini anyway

>pencil-thin arms
They nearly had it

And not manlet-sized.

That proof isn't exactly convincing. I could just as easily find proof that he was, indeed, trying to get his bike back. By ANY means necessary.

Eh, Samus had plenty of porn before the zero suit was a thing, if you control for the expansion of the internet.

And beyond that, Samus is a much better subject for submissiveness as a contrast to her regular persona. It's when that fetish element overtakes the main game that you get shit like Other M.

Fanmade, but it could be fun to make a squad and try and get shit going.

>You act like being beaten wasn't a part of the plan the whole time...

Oh, of course there was porn of her, but now they obviously feel the need to show her off all the fucking time in her zero suit in order to cater to whoever the fuck.
Part of the appeal (for me, at least) has always been that contrast between unflappable badass in cool armor and the glimpses of attractive woman.
But I guess now that she's no longer either strong, silent, independent, amazonian or even a bounty hunter that's all a moot point.

Super Metriod Samus is best Samus.

>Developer tries to make bounty hunting part of the game
>Nintendo doesn't like the concept of bounty hunting
wew

For as shit as Federation Force was, it at least cements that Other M's characterization didn't stick.

Given that we're getting a remake of Metroid 2 and a new Prime game, I'm fairly certain that Other M is being quietly swept away from the series canon. Not that it's HARD, Other M contradicts both itself and other material so much it's impossible to really ever say it was canon.

>Super Metroid Samus
>Not Metroid Prime Samus

Prime 2 and 3 Samus were shit, to be fair.

You misstyped Metroid Prime there.
Best official depiction we had.
Of course, then same malet in the development team had to turn her into a realdoll so he could fap to her without his dick getting scurred.

Checked.

I do not think Samus was involved in Mac's missing bike.

>They don't know
Canon evidence of the company Samus prefers.

Samus' Return is supposedly really good and retains the old characterization, such as it existed. I'm really curious to get my hands on that game, the original was pretty amazing for its time.

But user, anything Metroid post-Super Metroid does that. It's best we pretend Samus wandered off & did other shit after Super Metroid.

Ah, so she's like the Lion.

SAY THAT TO MY FACE NOT ONLINE, DOGFUCKER.

The original was alright for a portable during its time.

Sorry, I don't do business with Traitors.

Let's talk lore for a minute. At the end of Fusion, Samus is a fugitive, and possibly (by the Federation's word, at least) a terrorist. It's also probably safe to say that the Federation likely has a sort of ONI and UNSC setup going on, where the higher-ups are some kind of shady spooky types and the grunts are generally alright people.

Knowing this, do you think that Samus would willingly turn herself in to avoid unnecessary loss of life? We've really never seen her deal with other humans before, so we don't know what kind of value she places on them.

Also, think about it: Samus is absolutely stupid powerful. Would the spooks really WANT to try to chase her down and take her out? Certainly they know that wouldn't work. Perhaps they'd approach her with some kind of plea bargain?

It'd be a neat introduction to a new game.

Pic somewhat related. It's Metroid.

Did't try Federation Force, I just heard it was garbage and kept away. I don't think my heart could take another bad Metroid game; Other M broke something in me already.
If you guys excuse me rambling for a moment: In the late 80's and early 90's role models for girls in vidya were rare as fuck. Sure, male role models were also cool, but when I learned that the protagonist of that game I had been playing non-stop was actually a woman underneath that armor I was just blown away. I could lord that over the guys in school and everything. Samus was sort of a proto-crush, in a weird way...
And Sakamoto, that fucking asshole, ruined her! To hell with him!
I dread the fact that Prime 4 is not done by Retro Studios, but by some Japanese dev team, which means Sakamoto might have a lot more influence. Gah.

If we changed her hair, eyebrows & others abit, we might be able to turn her into The Boss.

Honestly, if Samus had a personality, I feel like it would be similar to The Boss'.

Samus by the time of Fusion is also exceptionally well-known and well-liked, not the near mythical figure she was to the rank and file in earlier games. Federation would have to undertake a smear campaign of some kind first to try and turn people against her. At the same time Federation is doubtlessly going to try something stupid in the future, and when it goes out of control, they'll need her help. Plus who knows what'll happen next time Ridley shows up; he's got a way better track record than someone like Abaddon, and WILL keep showing up again somehow, just like ol' armless.

Really depends on which portrayal you're going with:
Western Samus (Prime, older canon) has a generally more positive portrayal of the Federation and both sides seem fairly chill around each other. That said, I doubt this Samus would hesitate much to mulch Federation marines by the truckload if they actually went after her.

I remember hearing that. I think it was literally a case of the Japanese Devs picking a sci-fi job that sounded cool without really getting what it meant.

Really, it'd be fine if they just made her like Link. Strong silent type, good heart, very good at getting the job done and may amass a hoard of treasure along the way.

Did you watch Alien? Play Chun-Li or Cammy in Street Fighter?

Never watched Alien until I was like 14 or so.
Didn't like Chun-Li much, but played the shit out of Cammy when Super was released. Before that I was more of a Blanka and Vega (as of Turbo) user. But all of that was way later.
In my limited scope back then it was Peach or Samus, and Peach wore dresses which was a big no-go, while Samus wore a space-suit and shot lasers. Not much of a contest.

...

here ya go user

This picture gives me conflicting feelings. The scars are a nice touch that make Samus' vacant expression a slightly awkward and almost adorable, like she's asking herself "Am I doing this right?". But then I see that she somehow got Blue Hair pregnant? How? ...Is it Bird Magic? I'm guessing Bird Magic.

Yis....

>Knowing this, do you think that Samus would willingly turn herself in to avoid unnecessary loss of life? We've really never seen her deal with other humans before, so we don't know what kind of value she places on them.

I had a post-Fusion Metroid plot idea, but it was before I heard Sakamoto retconned Samus' Metroid-y-ness.

I've been to /d/ enough times to know exactly how she got blue pregnant.

Bird Magic, right?

fuck, can't unsee

>Bird Magic, right?
GLORIOUS BIRD MAGIC!

I know other people might not feel the same, but I want you to know that I appreciate you telling us your story. I'm glad this holds a special place in your heart.

Thanks, user!

This is the chozo user
A little things like "Death" or "Extinction" isn't going to slow their civilization down at all

It's fun, a little repetitive with the enemies so far but fun

I've actually been thinking of running a campaign with this, but I don't really know what it should be about. Anyone have any ideas?

...

>This is the chozo user
>A little things like "Death" or "Extinction" isn't going to slow their civilization down at all
Indeed, but it does affect the emotions of your adopted Daughteru/Perfect Warrior, setting her against her creator and his purposes.

Don't try to pass off Inquisitor Samus as a Primarch!

But user, you mistake Inquisitor Vail for Samus.

>But user, you mistake Inquisitor Vail for Samus.
THEN WHO IS THIS TECH PRIESTESS?!?!

A Chozo in disguise.

A team of space pirates trying to survive their coworkers, Science Team's newest abominations that need testing, their bosses, and at the end of the game, The Hunter.

two left feet

I don't see an =][= anywhere on that armor
