Yeah, kinda like why Chadwick bosemans physique made more sense for a nimble jumping around black panther than say, Winston Duke (M'Baku) would have been a hard sell for the movement of the character of T'Challa, if nothing else changed. Of course it's a movie so they can do whatever they want, but still.
Yeah, that physique makes no sense for Samus. Samus would have a physique similar to someone who does calisthenics or a gymnast (although I doubt there are many 6ft+ female gymnasts)
In the real world sure, ok. In science fiction and fantasy? Sure she would. I remember seeing this all the time.
youtu.be
That would be great. Nintendo opts for generic 3D art for their 2D games.I've always wanted a cel shaded Metroid.

Look at my boy Conan pull off a backflip down stairs when kicked off balance. God damn I loved the shit out of this show.

Preferably all the variations of an area theme too if we get it. The game does that classic super metroid and metroid fusion thing of having specific music for different rooms to set particular moods alongside specific versions of the general area theme for different environments in a given area (so no more "time for norfair" that samus returns did a lot)
I'm not always up for reusing music from older games, but give me as many new renditions of the Lower Brinstar theme as possible.
That's what was throwing me off as well. Having all that black on the screen can make some areas look empty, visually. However, after watching the videos a little more I think the black gives the scene a kind of diorama effect. Like, they're meant to fade out so you focus on the lit areas in-between.
I know I am late in replying to this, but she never was. I don't know why people inferred this from the ending of Fusion, but its not there. She talks about there being tribunals and investigations, that doesn't mean she's on the run and a fugitive. An entire space station was just destroyed of course there's going to be an investigation into it.
comments like this are the reason why so many industry professionals grew to absolutely despise GAF during its height
Sorry for replying to a days old post but I saw it before my account was approved.I think the blue on the new Dread suit looks great too, but it doesn't really match up with how we last saw Samus at the end of Fusion.
Also, since people are discussing how Samus should appear outside of her power suit, Emily Blunt in Edge of Tomorrow remains exactly how I'd like to see Samus portrayed if they're going to keep her blonde and white.
Well, the implication is she believes she will face charges, but the implication is also that the Federation itself isn't evil since Samus and Adam believe the Federation will ultimately believe her story and not throw her in prison forever. Sakamoto clarified that point further in Other M.
I mean they didn't do it to be cheap or anything. They simply wanted 3d animated cutscenes with a camera that could seamlessly transition in and out of them and an animation style that would work fluidly as in the case of the EMMI (I'm not even sure how this thing could be animated in pixel art gameplay without it being really janky)
If anyone has the capital to fund a game with high-quality, sprite-based 2D graphics, it's Nintendo.
I keep seeing people here talking about how disappointing the trailer was but yet everywhere else online I see people just hyped about it lol
None at all. People around that time were just discussing what they thought could be improvements to Samus' out-of-Power Suit appearance, and there were also a few members that either presented the idea of a race swap, or just a more interesting face or design if she remains white. I don't think anyone seriously believes that Nintendo will drastically redesign the Zero Suit or Samus' appearance, it's just wishful thinking for fun.
Congrats on beating the game but I will forever defend the artifact hunt to the death. You could have actually completed it organically while progressing through the game as soon as you unlocked the missiles. What's more is that the game shows you the locked missile door to start the quest at the very beginning of the game.
The other thing is that I can easily imagine a scenario where one of the reasons Dread got cancelled in the first place was because Sakamoto, himself, wasn't completely satisfied with what they could've accomplished with 2D sprites. That likely was the reason he and others were shopping around for partners like Team Ninja, and later, MercurySteam, in the first place.
And I mean, Nintendo's firmly been on the "polygonal graphics make more sense economically" wagon for a long time now. They really don't seem to have any reverence for pixel art except for purely retro/nostalgic appeals.
they gave us a chance and we squandered it. (though this isn't pixel art)
Wario Land Shake It did so poorly it killed not just this style from Nintendo but also Wario Land games period if I remember right.they gave us a chance and we squandered it. (though this isn't pixel art)
I see. That makes sense. I do think there’s a decent chance we’ll see a significant redesign of Samus if not for Dread then for Prime 4. She’ll of course be the same character so don’t expect different colored hair (much less skin) but by judging her most recent appearances in SSBU and Samus Returns I’m confident we can kiss goodbye the Barbie doll and expect a more muscular and toned Samus moving forward. Just don’t expect full on Abby from The last of us 2, not because I do or do not want that but because I don’t think Nintendo would go that far. Still I think the worst days of Samus and her ZS are behind us.
have Zero Suit be barefoot with stirups. just as fetishy, but more logical
It seems like instead of making every enemy really tanky and mostly one at a time, they make encounters generally have more enemies with less health to deal with so the counter isn't as good but still potentially useful.
It’s incredible I swear Nintendo could’ve made it. I recommend to change the controls so it works like in the GBA games (Hold R + Shoot to use Missiles instead of having to toggle like in Super Metroid) and you’re golden.
But hey at least Wario Ware is still alive, really wish the characters appeared in Mario spin-offs like DK
