Also I wanna see more entries for the contest. Only a few have taken photos for the contest so far, so you actually got a pretty good chance at winning without putting much effort into it.

There's a good chance that Yoshio Sakamoto will turn back Metroid Dread sometime in the future. He just finished Rhythm Heaven Wii, and we don't know what his next project is going to be. There's a good chance that he's working on the next WarioWare game, either for the WiiU or 3DS *shrugs*darkjedi187 said:when will we get a new metroid for 3ds and any idea when metroid 2 will be out for the eshop?
Now we don't know which console Dread was planned for, but I highly expect it was for the DS, which would make it appear on the 3DS if it ever gets developed.Yoshio Sakamoto said:I cannot deny the existence of such a project in the past but cannot say if it will be what I move onto next or not. Im sorry but we would like to keep that game a mystery. After all, there has been a lot of speculation surrounding Dread. And my hope, if at all possible, is to reset the situation at once and start from scratch.
Mockingbird said:Just started Metroid: Other M. Do I have to constantly go into first person mode to look for things to scan like in the Prime series if I want to get 100%?
Electivirus said:No, the scanning only shows up at plot-important scenes and doesn't count towards 100%. IIRC, only items/upgrades count towards it.
Mockingbird said:Cool. are there any things that can be missed if you don't get it at a certain time?
Kontergurke said:Actually, there are no items that can be missed permanently in Other M (or any Metroid game for that matter).
In Other M sometimes certain doors, rooms or passages become temporarily (or permanently) blocked off, but even then, if there is still an item, there will be another way to get to it.
Some items, if not picked up at the first opportunity, will become unavailable until much later in the game (), but no matter what you do, you'll always be able to complete your item collection rate to 100% in your save game.Some of them can be only revisited after the secret Boss battle
... at least if you don't trigger the "door-won't-open"-bug. In that case, you'll have to delete your save and start all over!
Shin Johnpv said:My entry for the contest. I didn't know if we could only submit one photo or multiple ones, so to be safe I combined them all into one file. Best fucking video game series ever. I don't have any of the awesome statues since I just can't afford them, but I have a bunch of promotional stuff. I know have some more things, and all the boxes for the cartridge games they're just all packed away right now.

you're missing the Metroid prime 2 demo bonus disc!! :p
Electivirus said:A few, yes. I can't remember exact places, but there are expansions in areas that become blocked off/destroyed after a certain point in the game.

Shin Johnpv said:Actually I do have it. It was inside the Metroid Prime case. I realized after I posted the photo that I had forgotten to take it out. Decided not to try and take a new photo. I can always amend it some how though lol.

He doesn't have the shit-tacular figure that GamePro/Joyride made. Or the First4Figures statues.Mockingbird said:Do you have the LE lenticulars given away at Circuit City if you bought Prime and Fusion there? Because T-Shirts aside, I can't think of any other U.S. merchandise you're missing.

Ah, I'd love to have that Zero Mission stand.
You are a lucky man. :)

I have a snazzy little "Ask me about Metroid Prime/Ask me about Metroid Fusion" lanyard from when those released. The Prime logo is embroidered all along the strap, pretty nifty.

PixyJunket said:The Zero Mission stand is awesome, I have one as well (including a giant Metroid Fusion promo box).
I also have framed posters for Prime 2, Zero Mission and Other M (signed by the guy who did the chalk art, for whatever reason).
I probably have more than Shin Johnpv but I'm too way lazy to take it all out to capture it. He has the FDS Metroid and Metroid Prime display over me (although I could have gotten the Prime display, I just had nowhere to store it), I have boxed copies of Metroid NES (both versions), a boxed Asian Version Metroid NES, boxed copies for all the Game Boy/GBA games plus a lot of Japanese strategy guides and mangas (Samus and Joey, LOL). I have the Prime t-shirt a little GameCube disc caddy with the Prime logo on it, plush Metroids. The official Prime/Fusion soundtrack (one track has a bad audio encode, ugh), a fan made DVD set, a Metroid Prime GameCube box. The Prime 2 demo disc.
I have a really, really sad amount of stuff. o_o;
Okay, as I was typing this I remembered that I DID take a picture of a lot of this stuff, around the time Zero Mission was coming out. This is probably a fraction of the stuff I have now. Except for the games themselves, all of this is scattered all over the place in different boxes, no time/energy for a reunion tour, so here's my OLD picture.
From 2004.

Yours is excellent as well. The Zero Mission stand is a right pain to dust, eh? I remember I used to bribe GameStop managers for these things, like "I'll pre-order Metroid Zero Mission if I can have that stand when you're done with it." it worked every time. Ultimately, I think I only kept the Metroid ones and a giant Final Fantasy IV GBA box (and I was distraught when they didn't make one for V and VI).Shin Johnpv said:Mighty fine collection there. That Prime 1/Fusion OST is absolutely amazing.
Yeah, I suppose so...Boney said:Zero Suit - Metroid Zero Mission

Dude, get your poster framed, Target sells frames in that size for like $12, trust me, you'll love the difference it makes.

Shin Johnpv said:No I didn't even know CC gave anything like that away. I must have missed it back then. I have like 2 or 3 shirts I think somewhere, part of the problem is shit gets packed away and then its like hmm where the hell did I put it.
Chet Rippo said:Yeah, I suppose so...
Except for both games using first person view I don't think there are any connections. Had Kenji Yamamoto been on board for Other M I'm sure we would have witnessed some prime music remixed.Mockingbird said:Just beat Other M. Starting post-game tomorrow.
Does Other M have any references to the Prime series at all btw? I've only played part of Prime 1 and none of the others, so I don't know the story.
