Metroid Prime Trilogy - First Person Perfection 

One of the best things about these games is the world building. From the lore to the architecture, there's rime and reason to everything you do and see. Scanning the floating platforms in Phendrana Drifts, for example, explains how they're being levitated, and you can just straight up see the propulsion mechanism yourself. I love these games, can't wait for my copy of Prime Remastered to arrive!

I actually bought Metroid prime trilogy on my Wii U like four days before they announced Metroid prime remastered😂

Imagine how good Sanctuary Fortress or Sky Town would look in a HD remaster.

I love all 3 games for different reasons. And that's a good thing, a trilogy shouldn't feel all the same and I'm glad Retro had the courage to make each entry feel vastly different from each other. If you want classic Metroid in 3D, you have Prime 1. If you want a darker and tougher experience, you have Prime 2. And if you want a more cinematic and action styled Metroid, you have Prime 3. My personal favorite is Prime 2, but I really like 1 and 3 as well. I always replay the trilogy once or twice every year, it's almost like a tradition for me now. And with Prime 1 having got a remastered, it's making me desparate to see a Prime 2 and 3 remastered with the same amount of love. I really hope Retro gives us those remasters, even if they release after Prime 4 if they want to take their time with it!

Man, Metroid Prime has been a trilogy of game I've played for my very first time fairly recently. I played through Prime 1 when I bought a GCN in January 2021. It took me a while to get into it and learn the controls but man I was impressed. I would still rate it a solid 10/10 game. I love everything about it. I then bought my Wii U second hand(got a good deal on it 150 for the system, 3 games, 3 wii mote, 2 3rd party wireless nunchuke, 1 3rd party USB controller, and all the little nick knacks too) in Jun of 2022. I factory reset the system and connected my nintendo account to it and merged my switch account with it. I then bought the wii trilogy for just $20. Much better than finding a loose version for $80. I played through Prime 2 over winter break and that is another solid title. At that point I was going "Why the hell is this not on Switch? These are some of the best games I've ever played, I don't understand it". Then I looked up metroid sales numbers and I understand why. Even though the metroid games are always at least a 8/10 they do not sell well when compared to Mario or Zelda. I finished up 2 and then jumped into 3. And 3 is a lot different from 1&2. It being on the Wii means jankey motion controls. But so fat I've enjoyed myself with it. Having the ship be another piece of equipment to use and upgrade is neat. Traveling around is a little clunky. 1&2 had one map which all connected to one another. In 3 its separated into little sections on the planet. But maybe it will give me that wow moment if I play it some more. What's even more crazy is I've technically always liked metroid prime even when I didn't know the games existed. Thank you Sakurai for making Super Smash Bros. Brawl. I would say Brawl is where I really experienced my love of gaming story modes and music. In the Sub Space Emissary there's a few missions where you play as Samus. The music that plays in parts of them is Prime 1 menu select theme. This right here is what I loved about metroid prime even though I didn't know these games existed. And thank God for Brawl in general for preserving gaming history to that point and to expose different and obscure games to new players. I'm so glad Prime 1 got a remake, it desperately needed to get one. Just so that more people can play it. I would of liked the trilogy but they might release a remaster of 2 next year in 2024, Prime 3 in 2025, then finally Prime 4 in 2026. One can hope. Glad to see you review this amazing game series

Idk what it is about the Metroid Prime games, but I really like the aesthetic of them. Kinda wanna get a Wii again and play it on an old ass TV just to get that retro nostalgia experience.

Metroid Prime was the first Metroid game I ever played to completion and I've always gotten bashed for having this opinion, but I hated how the story was told. 2 and 3's very forward approach of involving Samus was so much better IMO. Even if 3 suffered from 7th gen FPS tropes other games were skyrocketing with at the time. Still, all 3 games are classics. Now time for Hunters.

The Metroid series is so important to me that I became a top speedrunner in Metroid Prime and play randomizers for pretty much all of them. Always glad to see this series get such high praise.

You’ve earned my subscription for your great F-Zero video and this. You have some of the best takes I’ve ever seen of any RU-vidr.

which one is your favorite?

This was a great video. Keep it up man

I’m playing metroid prime remastered. Never played these games before. But I’m loving it

I think it would be cool if you make a follow up video about the other prime Metroid games. Those being hunters and federation force

They also developed Donkey Kong Country Returns and Tropical Freeze.

Have you played Other M. Lots of fans hate this game but I like it. It tries ti be different and like Corruption it got some things right and some things wrong. I am glad you found the light. Now go fort and soread the word of Troid, Metroid. 😅

I love the prime trilogy, but I have a "first game" bias to Echoes and it is amazing especially when a randomizer is being played as well

Great video! I disagree with how you think the Prime Trilogy is tacked into the timeline between Metroid 1 and 2. I believe that the events of Metroid 1 happen, then the prime trilogy happens, then something with Prime 4 happens that convinces the Federation that the metroids should be destroyed, leading into Metroid 2, which then leads into each other game in succession. In Prime Federation Force, Cylux steals a metroid being kept in the federation, which could lead into prime 4 having some sort of big metroid thing go down, leading to the Federation ordering Samus to destroy all remaining metroids. It all depends on how they handle Prime 4 to see if the games are tacked on in the timeline or not.

The Doomtroid Prime trilogy

Actually during an interview with the Metroid Director in 2009 he said that the prime games aren’t canon and that they actually do exist in another universe where only the first game happened.

BoTW vibes when you talked about music

Never have actually been into Metroid, but I was considering getting the Trilogy for my Wii. I’m into a lot of other Sci-Fi games like Halo, Mass Effect and such, and I like Fantasy like the Elder Scrolls. Can someone tell me if I should get it, or tell me what are reasons I might want to get it? Cause second hand purchases for Wii stuff is expensive these days

I love this series

im a new metroidd fan and all i want is remasterd prime 2 and 3 for switch cuz 1 was sooo good

They should’ve remastered Trilogy instead of just the first one.

I played the first two games when they came out and I remember being disappointed with Prime 2 at seeing what I felt were some Halo-inspired elements (honestly, my first thought at seeing those troopers overwhelmed in that early cutscene was, "oh look, it's the flood"). They even added a multiplayer battle mode which felt like heresy to me and like the devs were caving in to what mainstream gamers expected from FPS games at the time. And I didn't like how Samus was made to look less realistic and more like an anime barbie in Prime 2's ending. That's part of why I thought the first Prime was a masterpiece which felt fresh while still being faithful to the Metroid formula (and the scanning was a way of giving people lore details without interfering with that). The second one was a good game for sure but one which also rubbed me the wrong way a bit. I couldn't shake the feeling that Prime 2 was trying to alter the series to appeal to non-Metroid fans who wanted more edginess, more story, and more twitch FPS action. Saying all that, it would be interesting to play them again and see how I feel. Maybe I could appreciate Prime 2 more now. Also, I've never played the third one because I never had a Wii. I do have a Wii U and I've thought about trying out the trilogy (and I know the eshop is closing for good soon). I'm just not big on motion controls.

Metroid prime remastered is my favorite the one after this is too kiddy for me

If you had to choose between Prime Remastered or the Trilogy on Wii (U from eShop for $20) which would you choose?

After playing the Prime remake it would be a major disservice if Nintendo didn't do the same for the entire trilogy

Why do people keep saying that there's a fetch quest at the end of the game? You're supposed to visit the Chozo temple as soon as you get missiles and collect the artifacts as you go along. That's the way I've always played it since the first time I played on Wii a few years ago. It never occurred to me that people would wait until the to start looking. You do a lot less overall backtracking if you just go back and pop every missile door you spotted once you get the missiles. It's the same thing with bombs. I spend a few minutes going back to blow up every bombable wall I spotted before moving on.
