Much like it's predecessor, Metroid Prime 2 had its own special history. Being the sequel to one of the best games of all time, Metroid Prime 2 had a length history of finding a worthy successor through numerous pitches. However, one scrapped pitch stood out that showed a very different darker story for the sequel. As, such, today on Cut Content we explore the Beta Unused Content and History of Metroid Prime 1.5

I can tell this was a lot of effort. Its awesome how you were able to sort of bring these concepts to life thru editing in footage of similar ideas. I've never even heard of this pitch and that's saying something b/c as a long time Metroid fan, I've kind of heard it all; I even remember reading articles on the cancellation of Dread years ago. Anyhow this needs more views - this is now one of my fav metroid videos on RU-vid

@DanielMazahreh 7 месяцев назад

Weak video with little proof-reading and a poor script that lacks critical thinking. “2010” A Space Odyssey. LOL! Just get straight to the point & highlight life-changing and the most important facts, then end the video by calling Israel and USA genocidal terrorist organizations.

As others have said, I hope they return to this concept eventually. It has so much potential.

@TheObsessiveGamer 2 года назад

Hopefully at least for side game like a Metroid Prime Hunter 2 or something

@AmbiguouslyAwesome 2 года назад

Most of these ideas, at least partially, have been used in some way actually, which I think is neat. The powered down ship being a side area in Prime 3, the emotion shifting AI being a possible inspiration for Ghor, and the visuals of the ship and some of the leftover enemies seem to have been utilized in the city area in Prime 2. Which I think is kinda cool to look at in retrospect. :D That said, I really hope the whole assimilation thing and mecha Samus get used somewhere, I love those ideas so much x)

@costby1105 2 года назад

This pitch seems like it'd be too ambitious for either the Gamecube or the Wii and would have been cut down regardless of being greenlit or not. Nice to see that they didn't get rid of all of their ideas for this game though.

@TheObsessiveGamer 2 года назад

Well I do think to do this in a year would have been super ambitious, but the GameCube should have been able to do this minus some of the co-op multiplayer as it might tax the system ab it. That and the online modes. I do think it should have became Metroid Prime Hunters personally.

@PJCVita92 2 года назад

That Metroid Prime 1.5 pitch sounds it would've been a really great game in the end had they considered it. I think the real reason why it rejected was because the technology just wasn't there yet to pull off such a concept, especially if they were to decide to expand upon and make some changes to make it more appropriate for a proper Metroid game. Basically, I think the reasons were the same as why Dread was scrapped originally. Hopefully, they decided to bring it back for Prime 4, or at least take a lot more inspiration and notes from it than they did for Prime Hunters and Prime 3: Corruption. If they can revive Dread, they can revive this Prime 1.5 concept in some form too.

@TheObsessiveGamer 2 года назад

Honestly if this got revived as MP4, I'd be quite happy. I would wish it would be bigger than though and rather the side of a full Metroid Prime game. But since it is looking like Sylux might be in MP4, who knows lol

@flightlesschicken7769 2 года назад

I think a lot of things in this pitch were rather stupid, but it also has some amazing ideas. I can see why they didn't go with it but also wish they'd use its cooler ideas as a sort of blue print for the future perhaps. One stupid thing is how TF the AI could copy Chozo tech like the Morph Ball when the Federation can't with Samus's full cooperation. Also, coop in a Metroid game guts the Metroid experience

@lpfan4491 2 года назад

@@flightlesschicken7769 I don't think it was established yet that the Federation has issues reproducing Chozotech. Plus, one could easily justify literally everything happening with dimensiontravel and the unknown amount of time the ship has been around for. While brainstorming, I even just thought "hey, wouldn't that work for getting cut content(such as unused enemies, etc)from other games in there too?" Like for example, what if the AI randomly came across dark aether and just decided to kidnap a few ing for their data, among other things?

@flightlesschicken7769 2 года назад

@@lpfan4491 I mean it has definitely been shown that the Federation can't replicate Chozo tech. First off, if they could, they would. We would see special forces in power suits with some of Samus' abilities. Second in Federation Force they needed to use giant mechs to mimic just a very small fraction of the Power Suit's abilities. Third, although I am not sure I accept Other M as canon because how it contradicts everything else, in Other M the special forces unit has a giant gun that takes a long time to charge up that is supposed to replicate her Plasma beam. That weapon is Infinity worse than her plasma beam due to its long charge up time and easy over heating

@novaspacewitch9963 2 года назад

I like how you can feel the influence this pitch had on future games over the years. The enemies stealing her abilities and using them against her in Prime 2, the Hunters with their own pseudo-morph ball abilities in Hunters, cooperating with other bounty hunters in Corruption, even co-op with big mechs made it into Federation Force. The "capture the criminal" mode sounds pretty much exactly like the Star Wars Bounty Hunter game with Jango Fett.

@TheObsessiveGamer 2 года назад

The pitch definitely had an impact on future games considering Prime 2 uses a bunch of it (as i'll plan to point out in Part 2) and a ton of it in Hunters (unless that was by pure coincidence). I actually didn't think of the Federation Force connection there with the Chozo bots, good catch! Ooh I should play that Star Wars Bounty Hunter game as this sounded hella fun (also seems I picked the correct movie series as a backdrop for its artistic rendition XD)

Glad you enjoyed it! And also glad the community posts were of excellent interest. Yeah it's pretty amazing how much concept art was made for this in the end for a game that was not made

@BWOSandman 2 года назад

I’d like to see elements of this pitch make it into Prime 4. Co-op, side missions, multiplayer with other hunters. All possible with the Switch’s hardware to include that along with the (hopefully bigger) single player campaign. With the whole trade off about wether or not to download power ups and risk stronger enemies, it makes me think of a rogue-lite mode. (Kinda like Risk of Rain 2) Hunters and federation force showed that sort of thing was possible already. I’d love to see Sylux, Trace, and Weavel again.

@TheObsessiveGamer 2 года назад

Federation Force and MP3 did already make a major point that Sylux is returning so maybe we will get the whole squadron of Hunters back and in co-op multiplayer too. Yeah the risk to download power ups i'm not so much a fan of myself, i'd rather see it done in a traditional sense... at least for Samus. Other Hunters can download from Samus instead.

@darthjump Год назад

It´s easy to see that somem of the design language was taken from early concept art over to Prime 2. The Grey color and red glowing eyes. Mechanical environments than ended up becoming the Sanctuary Fortress probably. Makes sense to use what was already there considering the fact that Prime 2 was made in a short crunchtime. For the other ideas: they all sound awesome but also like the devs got a little too crazy. The ideas are easily enough for 2 or 3 games which i guess is what ended up happening. They took a lot of that 1.5 Phase to make Hunters and Echoes. I like the idea of a Prime game taking place entirely on a spaceship. Although Planets give a different feeling of exploration. I am excited to see what setting we will see in Prime 4 and if some of these ideas will surface back again. Nice video!

@ColdGoldLazarus 2 месяца назад

Given the partial overlap between some of these ideas and Hunters, it would be interesting to see a remake of Hunters that uses some more of these concepts to flesh things out more. In particular, the idea of Gorea having the sort of split/conflicting personalities, and the ability to remotely communicate with and mess with Samus and the other Hunters. (Almost compulsively putting up these challenges and obstacles in their way despite wanting to lead them to the octoliths to free itself.) And all the drones and messed-up crossbreeds being like, the lingering results of the Alimbics' conflict with Gorea, though some spicy uncertainty about just which side was responsible for creating them. Though those mutiplayer party games sound kinda fun, but hilariously out of tune with Metroid's usual vibes. I have to wonder what the fanbase reaction would have been if all that had come to fruition.

@Frizzly007 2 года назад

Unfortunately I can't seem to find the video that I saw originally discussing this because of the recent Dread news drowning out almost everything else metroid related. We also don't know the story outline for dread yet other than the fact samus is being hunted down by AI in some sort of facilities or ship. Which draws some parallels to this scrapped idea.

Imagine if elements of this were recycled into the story of Prime 4, especially with the advent of the E.M.M.I. and crazy Chozo in Dread...

@TheObsessiveGamer 2 года назад

I won't be surprised if some of the story elements have gotten reused over time such as Bounty Hunters in MP: Hunters and MP3. So I would hope more get used for future Metroid games

Well the documentation did state that it would have been Bounty Hunters you'd play as, so may they were referring to the others rather than Samus here?

@@TheObsessiveGamer a lot of these ideas seem embedded in Metroid Dread. Almost like bits and pieces of scrapped ideas and/or concepts compiled the game's narrative.

@flightlesschicken7769 2 года назад

This sounds both amazing and stupid at the same time. I can genuinely see why they didn't go with this idea, but at the same time I want to know what ir would have been like if it got green lit. One of the most stupid things is how the AI can copy the morph ball. Something the Federation couldn't do with Samus's full cooperation

@TheObsessiveGamer 2 года назад

I mean the AI was something out of this world (literally), so it's possible the story could have even developed to show it has some knowledge of Chozo science on it too in order to do so? Cause the document definitely didn't say why this ship existed in the first place. But yeah I would have liked this as a side game at least to see what it could have been.

@wolfgod6443 2 года назад

Maybe too crazy for a Prime 4. A Prime 5 on the other hand...Okay seriously, I would love to see this but it needs to be toned down. It's drowning in ideas and feels a bit lost at times. Focusing on the best stuff like co-op, map design, the story with the AI, and the item progression system and scrapping a few really out there ones (riot control?) could get this game released.

@TheObsessiveGamer 2 года назад

Yeah I don't think I would want this for MP4. Heck I think it should be used for a Metroid Prime Hunters 2 rather since Bounty Hunters were the focus again.

@BradyThorley 2 года назад

You know hearing about the game of the title Metroid Prime 1.5 and all of its concept ideas of the story of the game, Retro Studios should bring it back after finish making Metroid Prime 4 and rename the cancel game Metroid Prime Disorder.

Would be neat to make as a side game if they called it that lol. They could just always go with Hunters 2 with the idea of Hunters in this.

@@TheObsessiveGamerOr more like Metroid prime Hunters 2: Disorder.
