Bounty Disclaimer:
To collect the $1000 bounty, the source needs to be able to prove who they are, and that they worked at the studio in question. There's only one bounty -- if 10 people email us with legit stories, we can't pay out $10,000. But if two legitimate stories are emailed to us at the same time, it's possible the bounty gets split between both sources.
We'll investigate all plausible claims from verifiable sources, and we'll pay the bounty if the story is legitimate. For example, if John Smith from Gametek emails us saying he heard a rumor around the water cooler, that's not solid enough for us to use. The source has to be willing to prove their identity, and their tip has to lead to at least one verifiable relevant source

@PIKMINROCK1 Год назад

It sort of makes sense. Interviews about Federation Force mentioned that the game started on development on the DSi. I originally figured Project Valkyrie was originally a 3DS pitch after Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon before Tanabe asked them revive the DSi idea (which became Federation Force) but, I was expecting Project Valkyrie to be an action platformer. Once they mentioned it was a shooter at first, I realized they were one in the same. The phase 2 lines up with so LinkedIn profiles listing Wii U Online project I recall seeing after Luigi's Mansion (though at the time, I figured it was for a Wii U Strikers or Luigi's Mansion 3)

Repent and follow Jesus my friend! Repenting doesn't mean confessing your sins to others, but to stop doing them altogether. Belief in Messiah alone is not enough to get you into heaven, you must become a new creation and be born again by responding to the Holy Spirit. - Matthew 7:21-23, Revelation 3:15-16 cf. Hebrews 10:26-29. Pay close attention to your thoughts and how you respond to your inner monologue because it has a greater impact than you think. Call on the name of Jesus and pray for Him to intervene in your life, and do all that you can to follow His ways.

@RandomPerson964 Год назад

Blame the marketing. Marketing is the absolute worst aspect of the video game industry. They can't let things stand on their own merit, they can't allow niche games to appeal to a niche market. They just siphon off of creative and original works and demand that a million numbered sequels are made until the IP is milked dry like a dairy cow, and dies. If a game is good, advertising it should be easy. Just shout to the high heavens that the game is great and everyone should play it. Instead, these absolute dirtbags want to coast on an already known name and go to lunch early. It also doesn't help that they mostly advertised the Rocket League ripoff mode back when Rocket League was most popular. Making people think it's just a hasty clone trying to ride off a trend.

As cool as it is seeing Justin Bailey be referenced in what would have been a modern metroid at the time, I think it would have been cooler if the player character for Tactics was Adam. Had Other M not happened and this game came out instead, we could have even had the final level be some kind of sacrifice mission where we have to move all of our units + Samus to an extraction point while the stage is gradually being destroyed more and more each turn. Kinda like a fire emblem style twist on the Escape Sequences in Metroid

There was another proposed game with the placeholder title Metroid 1.5, I believe meant to take place directly after Prime (so a Gamecube game that never happened), that had a personality shifting insane AI as the primary villain, lots of robot enemies, and humanoid Metroids running around.

You guys are so next level. The depth of research and just how many video you guys are able to pump out is truly astounding. We live in a very special time where this type of information is readily available to regular people like me

All this Metroid content... my heart can only handle so much

@mast3734 Год назад

I’ll admit I stoped watching DYKG around the time they put out the video basically saying “guys somethings wrong you didn’t watch this video as much as you were supposed to”, but I’m so happy to see you guys bringing this in-depth stuff with interviews and things I’ve never heard anywhere else. Hope you guys keep at it, feels like your finally back!

Can't believe they got News celebrity Vinny Vinesauce to host an episode of DYKG

Well done Vinny, so cool to see you in a channel like this

What's interesting is that there was a old (2008) Half Life 2 mod called "Project Valkyrie" that too was a multiplayer FPS game inspired by Metroid. Wonder if there's a connection there that didn't get mentioned.

Wouldn't surprise me if the devs that were asked to make Metroid 64 has some connection to Iguana Entertainment & Acclaim Entertainment, the studio & publisher of the Turok games on the N64.

There’s ID software and 3D Realms too, I guess. But I could see Nintendo around that time being more open with the idea of a Quake-styled Metroid game.

@IronicSonic83 Год назад

You can tell all the work it went on this. Amazing feature. Congrats!!

@mitrikgaduk347 Год назад

I think Splatoon may have had something to do with the way Valkyrie was handled, the timing seems appropriate, and having 2 big multiplayer competitive games, both published by Nintendo, both shooters of a sense, and given where we are today with Splatoon, it just seems like Nintendo didn't want their franchises competing in that space. What gives it even more credence is the fact that they shifted it to a co-op based game.

That tactics game had me drooling, super sick concept

Impressive how this channel has evolved from random game trivia to full-on journalism.

@simoxyz8630 Год назад

It’s fascinating to think that franchises that you love and grew up with coul’ve been completely different, if some of these canceled games had actually been made.

A Metroid Tactics would be great on switch

Those were Blizzard/Warcraft Ability buttons from that Metoid Tactics screenshot at 5:18

"You're out, I'm in. The people want more Vin." We did get more Vin and I highly approve of him to talk about more stuff on DYKG.

So some small chance at some incredible coincidence. If Metroid 64 was pitched to somebody, then it was probably to one of those Dream Team studios. One of the Dream Team studios was Acclaim Entertainment. Acclaim Entertainment published the Iguana Studios Turok games. A good amount of the Turok guys left Acclaim to follow Jeff Spangenberg in a new startup studio of his called Retro Studios. DYKG already talked to quite a few people from Retro, but it would be some incredible fate to find out the proposal back then was to the same guys that ended up making Metroid Prime.

Hey Ultimate, I'm the guy who wrote this video. Every time I talked to a Retro dev over the past couple years (maybe about 10 total), I asked about Metroid 64. No one knew anything unfortunately. John Whitmore who's quoted in this video was the only one who said anything substantial. The quote was cut short because I didn't wanna spend like 2 minutes on kind of a nothing burger, but basically he said Retro wasn't asked to do Metroid 64, and Nintendo of America kept them in the loop on what Rare was up to, and he didn't think it was Rare either. Unfortunately.

@@DJIVision Ah. Well damn. Thanks for the informed comment though. Good luck with the search!

I don't press the like button on most videos I watch the way other RU-vid users do. In fact, it's practically once in a blue moon that I hit like on a video. But I had to like this one, both for the great content and to support Vinny.

@Abracalyn Год назад

Wow. Such a surprise and a shame to see just how badly Metroid has performed across the years. Paul Tozour clearly has some immense passion for the franchise and I can hope that he is involved in the (forever upcoming) Prime 4. Amazing research done by everyone involved in the making of this video and the great love for the series is very apparent.

@eckitronix Год назад

Today I learned: How Xcom works Justin Bailey is basically canon There WERE plans for Metroid 64 How cool Metroid Tactics would be How cool Valkyrie would be I would be interested in that Heroes of Hyrule game How interesting it is that Valkyrie became Federation Force Metroid 64 could've been 2D! Miyamoto was definitely supportive of M64 They didn't know what to do for story, until Prime and Fusion Vinny is quickly globetrotting his online presence and it's cool
