Jack MathewsGUEST
hopefully
Reece ReillyHOST
we can keep it that way i
Reece ReillyHOST
I can give you mine first or you can go first, whatever you prefer.
Reece ReillyHOST
You go first.
Reece ReillyHOST
Okay, well, my overview is that Metroid Prime 4 is a textbook example of why design is the most important aspect of a game.
Reece ReillyHOST
I think from an art standpoint, beautiful.
AshgarHOST
And no, that does not just mean Zelda.
AshgarHOST
It really is very much in the sort of Metroid Prime style.
AshgarHOST
It is not a first-person shooter, however.
AshgarHOST
It's got a very unique sort of painterly art style that I haven't seen anybody try since Guild Wars 2.
FalconHOST
We're pretty psyched.
FalconHOST
If you can't tell from this title screen and the fact that there's no title on it, we have got Metroid Prime 4.
FalconHOST
Right, y'all? We are primed for Metroid Prime 4.
FalconHOST
We are indeed.
FalconHOST
Kevin, Eric, both of you.
FalconHOST
But it's so strange to see a title screen without a title on it.
KevinHOST
Yeah.
KevinHOST
This is like the Metroid Prime way.
KevinHOST
What is a good remake, and what makes a good remake, Falcon?
FalconHOST
Well, that's a good question because, I mean, on one hand, you could say the Metroid Prime remake is a good remake.
FalconHOST
I mean, that's pretty much...
FalconHOST
It's very faithful.
Gardiner BryantHOST
But that didn't really interest me either, and I'm a huge Metroid fan.
HiTechLoLifeHOST
Metroid Prime or the new Metroid Ravenous? Ravenous.
HiTechLoLifeHOST
Well, I mean...
HiTechLoLifeHOST
Maybe another trailer will change your mind, but I'd be interested.
RGTHOST
Yeah, I think it's well-deserved.
RGTHOST
I think if you look at his legacy with Nintendo and what he's done from the original Donkey Kong right through, you know, classic Super Mario Brothers right up to Metroid Prime, you know, he's shown his talent going from... 80s arcade machines to first-person shooters adventure games um you know he's done bits with i think pokemon red and blue he was involved in and legend of zeldas and just absolutely unbelievable he is nintendo he knows what a nintendo game any miyamoto game you play feels nintendo he knows what us about he knows you know what the consumer wants and um yeah i think it's well deserved i think it's absolutely fantastic and uh yeah what an absolute legend he is really and to be that many years still working for nintendo and you know he's probably seen many a person come and go from that company from you know ceos to developers bits and pieces yet he still keeps going on and making great games and yeah absolutely superb well deserved like i say
GeorgeHOST
Yeah, I think I find it almost a surprise that he's the first person since, what did I say, 1930s to win such an award from the gaming industry in Japan, which has been right at the forefront of certainly making some of the more innovative titles, making some of the more kind of fan-loved examples and probably some of the more what URI or the wider industry would class as artistic interpretations of the genre full stop.
GeorgeHOST
Yeah.
Peer SchneiderPANELIST
It's, but, but, like, if you're, if you're willing, a lot of shooters are mature, though.
Peer SchneiderPANELIST
I mean, they, if, if you're willing to buy a Switch, I think you'll have an awesome time with Metroid Prime, uh, Remastered, for example.
Peer SchneiderPANELIST
Uh-
Sam ClaibornPANELIST
That's not co-op.
Alana PierceSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Number 72, a whole new perspective for a classic Nintendo franchise.
Alana PierceSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Metroid prime.
Tim GettysHOST
Metroid Prime was released in 2002, the same day as Metroid Fusion, which is absolutely insane to think about, by Retro Studios, published by Nintendo on the GameCube, and of course it was exclusive.
Tim GettysHOST
Let's see where it landed on people's lists.
Tim GettysHOST
I had it at number 28, but I can't believe that blessing junior had it
Blessing Adeoye Jr.HOST
When a remaster comes out in the 2020s and it's a, for a game that came out, what was the year against 2002? And that lived up to everything y'all have been saying.
Blessing Adeoye Jr.HOST
It's crazy.
Blessing Adeoye Jr.HOST
I've spent most of my life hearing about Metroid prime and being like, all right yeah sure i believe it sure right the game is amazing that game is great like i was never really a metroid person i never really got that into even super metroid which i know is one of the greatest games of all time as well but like when that remaster came out i don't even know why i picked it up i don't know what compelled me but man i got so into it man the atmosphere in this game is so incredible and man did retro studios know what they were doing as far as creating a really good metroidvania action backtrack Sorry, yeah, back traction.
Tim GettysHOST
this really desolate world.
Tim GettysHOST
And yesterday I was talking about Metroid Prime and the atmosphere.
Tim GettysHOST
The atmosphere of Shadow of the Colossus is so special.
Blessing Adeoye Jr.HOST
I mean, think about the open world games that you play where you're exploring around.
57 MINS LATER
Dan RyckertSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Agreed, agreed.
Dan RyckertSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Okay.
Dan RyckertSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Too low for Metroid Prime.
Dan RyckertSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
That's where I'm
Tim GettysHOST
Super Metroid would be the other one that I'm like, damn, how do we make a list without Super Metroid?
Brian AltanoGUEST
Yeah, I mean, again, if you only have 10 games from the 90s, then you're going to lose some darlings, right? But I saw some folks that were kind of, I don't know what the word is, but they felt something about Metroid Dread being 69 and Metroid Prime being 69.
Brian AltanoGUEST
and Metroid Prime being 72, those are both really awesome games.
Brian AltanoGUEST
And they're four spots apart.
Brian AltanoGUEST
I don't really see the debate.
Brian AltanoGUEST
I think that the general consensus is that Metroid Prime is the better game.
Brian AltanoGUEST
I think most people just say that.
Brian AltanoGUEST
But Metroid Dread is incredible.
