My "Metroid Prime 4: Beyond" Reaction 

To be fair, they were VERY scary green letters

​@@EMLtheViewer True. I admit I may not have screamed, but I was definitely trembling and twitching with terror.

Donkey noises:

I almost screamed out loud in the middle of work...

It's a very normal reaction. I cried my eyes out when that green text hit

Green letters jumpscare warning

Rip arlo

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

it will make a great sound for memes

**Video of Squidward being crushed inside the spike-pillar car**

I was still in elementary school when Prime 3 came out. I just graduated from college 2 years ago and also moved 2 different places. Looking for my 2ndjob now haha

I have literally spent my entire life waiting for prime 4

I had just been married for a few days when it was announced. Now, our son is almost six and he watched this with me.

But everything needs to be stopped for a moment for this masterpiece unfold

I got my own place with my gal, I was only 2 years out of High School, working my first job. I don't even like Metroid and I got excited for all the fans.

Same. It took my brain a while to reconnect to my motor functions.

I just stared at my screen repeating "this isn't real" like he did

I screamed holy shit out loud aat work, and was shaking for a whole minute

I got goosebumps when the title was revealed just chills sucks I was at work when I saw it but dmannnn

I was fumbling around looking for my jaw... I understand how ya feel.

Nintendo sneakily killing off Nintendo youtubers

They already did with their BS RU-vid program years ago. Why you think they stopped?

Nintendo is like that fun uncle with an alcohol problem that occasionally will do something really stupid

​@@jackall-trades6149 Could be worse. They could be doing Microsoft has been doing recently.

Don't forget the pikmin 1 and 2 HD versions

This is the funniest comment I've seen in a long time

No that was Arlo turning into a Pikmin for a split second

literally the whimpering was the best part it had me rolling hahaha

My reaction to said fly whizzing by my ear: 0:28

Lmfaoooo I’m actually breathless thanks for that laugh

It is a small detail, but it is also such an iconic part of Metroid Prime. I remember playing the first game as a kid, and when the camera flew into the helmet and suddenly it switched to first person, it blew my mind. It felt like such a cool way to transition from cutscene to gameplay.

I appreciate you coming back to write this comment before returning back to your afterlife bliss

I was hoping the camera would hit Samus and knock her out

How's afterlife?

@@lupolinar not bad, but could use more pretzels

SYLUX

@@Jabeeps what are you talking about that’s the iconic That Guy, Arlo would NEVER lie

Ah yes, That Guy, of course he wpuld be the big bad of the game.

the metroid trainer

Um, clearly, THATS METROID himself

Like Dread, Prime 4 took 19 years to happen. Ain't that a bitch?

Same director and some of the det team also worked on those other Prime games.

I don't know how Nintendo would do it but they need to bring a remaster of Metroid Prime Hunters to Switch! That multiplayer was my childhood. That and monster hunter and Mario kart on DS/3DS

Props to Sylux for officially joining the vaunted, exclusive ranks of returning Metroid antagonists.

@@grantchoitz1420I logged 1,000 hours in Prime Hunters online multiplayer. I was in middle school. Used Neoseeker forums to play with people😂 Would KILL for a modern remake of that, multiplayer and all. The single player mode of Hunters was “meh” but it is still a decent game.

saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaame

And then the “butter cream on top of the icing” they put it into first person right after. Honestly 10/10 reveal. Surprise, timing, and the game reveal itself was all perfect

​@@TheCookieCookthe reveal was mid as sht for a game with Metroid Prime 1 looking visuals. the abrup cut revealing the title and logo felt so janky and out of place. You can tell this shit was put together at the last minute

@@jigsawlol242 Your opinions are not universal.

@@EGRJ yours aren't either. Good thing everything I said is a fact that any person with common sense and 2 functioning eyeballs would notice. Have fun having no standards and 0 self respect I guess.

I was personally expecting a new kirby but NOPE

Was hoping for a remaster/remake/sequel of Kid Icarus Uprising, but admittedly Prime 4 is *too* important to not be excited about - it’s *the* game of the generation

They would never show something Pokemon in a Direct unless it’s something they already had in a Presents

@@owenbridgers That's true, that slipped my mind lol. Was also thinking that it was probably some new 3d mario

Seeing as how they didn't end the Direct with the new Legend of Zelda game, I knew it had to be something massive and Metroid Prime 4 certainly fits the bill.

So glad Arlo is streaming these live now, was an awesome time in there

Me too. I saw those letters…we all knew what it was.

What? Luigi?

As a fellow Metroid fan, I live for specifically Arlo's live reactions to upcoming Metroid games.

Dread was funnier

Makes me so happy for him 🥹 I immediately thought: "Oh Arlo is freaking out right now I bet" when I first saw the trailer 🥹🥹

Were they asking for microphone volume up the whole time? I had no idea it was because they wanted arlo to react louder, I thought they meant direct audio

We (at least I) wanted louder direct volume, not mic volume. But people weren't specific enough.

I really hope it’s Kenji Yamamoto.

That song is heavily inspired by phendrana drifts. It has the same melody

@@Manoffire97 love how dreams and hopes get upvotes but real facts like your comment get slept on.

The guitar riff REALLY reminded me of Rundas’ boss theme, and personally I think the Metroid ost and guitar like that go together REAAAALLY well. And yeah that ethereal music at the end…beautiful.

I love that little guitar riff! It's like a solo but with zero humanity.

I remember a guy commenting about tiers of fans: tier 1 is the text, "omg, Prime 4!"; tier 2 is sylux, "omg, sylux!"; and tier 3 is mochtroids (still hypothetical), "omg, only 1 nucleus." But yea, if you know your stuff, that text had you jumping!

Or 3000

Let’s hope he’s watching, and can play the game alongside you when it comes out.

Sorry for your loss, hope your brother will be with you one way or another when you get to play it.

Bro sounded like he saw a spider

During the stream i was right there with him making similar sounds. I'm so excited too

@@droids75 ditto

So we're all stuck on the WiiU?

@@Fancy2209Real Rough. At least we have that Luigi's mansion minigame over here, that one's fun

To be fair, if you didn't ever read the instruction manual for Metroid Prime: Hunters, you probably would've never been exposed to his name. Despite being one of the main rivals in that game, as well as being teased to be making a return in the endings of a couple other Prime games, I don't believe his name ever actually came up in any of the games.

@@gurvmlkif you scanned him I believe it was shown, also in the opening cutscene, and ALSO in the overworld menu 😅

@@eitang.6292 The scanning is probably right, yeah. In my defense though, Hunters is the only Metroid game that I just didn't like. So while I did beat it, I was basically just going through the motions. Heck, I even preferred Metroid Prime Pinball, and I'm not very into pinball. But either way, that game came out ages ago. So it's very easy to have forgotten a character's name. Heck, I think the only reason I even remember Sylux' name was because of the ending of another game that made me go back to that manual to double-check his name, at which point I committed it to memory because he suddenly seemed like he would matter down the line. Whereas I couldn't tell you a single one of the other hunters' names.

@@gurvmlk It’s probably fine if you didn’t remember, I only do because I played Hunters for the first time recently. And yeah the campaign is kinda mid- I can totally see how this game was originally a multiplayer title only lol

@@eitang.6292 It wasn't even the campaign I disliked. I just couldn't enjoy the controls. I found them to be so awkward, and so much of the challenge came from simply feeling like I couldn't aim properly. Heck, some of the bosses I swear took me an hour to beat without dying, and not even because they were challenging, but because I simply couldn't hit them. Making the whole game feel obnoxious to play because I didn't like how it felt to play, regardless of the game's actual content.

Sustained adolescence is what it's called

that sounds weird but okay

7? More like 17 lmao

it's like Halo 2 meets Halo 3! wait, wrong channel

Switch 2 launch title trust

@@char1194 that's be an amazing port launch title!

Metroid usually doesn't sell too well but considering how much hype this game is getting I have a feeling it'll sell about 4 maybe even 5 million.

​@@totallynormalclonewarsfan Dread sold well

@@totallynormalclonewarsfan I just want Nintendo to make more Metroid content...if anything the Metroid IP would be amazing sci-fi/horror movies.

Tbf, I thought it was a Samus Returns port

Genuinely thought it was going to be a Mercury Steam Fusion remake, since they've talked about wanting to do that.

@TallonIV581 Honestly Super Metroid aged pretty well, all you'd need to do is probably just update the controls. It was a bit cramped on original hardware trying to run jump and shoot at the same time.

Dread is nowhere near like Fusion. First, it's not scary. Second, Fusion had way better soundtrack and third, Fusion has a good plot that doesn't feel like an afterthought that explains nothing about the Chozo or why they vanished.

not really, they don’t generally use the snap for the big announcements

No it doesn't. :/ Looks good though, no doubt. That Prime Remastered engine seems to be put to work even harder here.
