  • The metroid battle music is all wrong. It needs the violin strikes and actual suspense like in the original.

  • The Alpha Metroid isn't lively enough to me

  • 3 years later and it's still just a "demo" video on youtube.

  • @JranEQ

    ? look at video describtion and download the demo. the game isnt finished but you can play the first part

  • ¿The background of the minute 0:34 are from Castlevanioa SOTN?

  • I can't save in the demo! D:

  • this looks great but didnt like how your missiles get deflected if u hit the metroids head on on the original version u hit them 100% no matter where u shoot , this looks way hard and might run out of missiles at the beginning of the game maybe..but other than that the game looks amazing.

  • @linkpwnsevery1 thats not true i have Metroid 2 maybe its been a while since you played it and forgot plus it should be a lil bit more challenging to add the fun play the demo it just got out like a week ago go to the link in the description to download :)

  • @linkpwnsevery1 believe me, you're more likely to run out of energy instead out of missiles...

  • Guys this is the most amazing 2d metroid game I've ever seen next to fusion this is my number 1

  • although this remake looks amazing, not alot of it looks as if it were from the original

  • @sagen888 well yeah is a remake of metroid 2 he remade like 80% of the game backgrounds, musics etc......

  • sooooooo when exactly is this coming out, because it looks a lot like metroid zero mission, and that was possibly the best game ever.

  • @reallybuffguy3 ... did u pay the demo already?

  • @reallybuffguy3 no, what system is this going to be for?

  • I believe I speak for the entire Metroid fandom when I say

    DO WANT.

  • This should be ported to IPod touch it would be amazing XD

  • Gravity suit doesnt look right.

  • Is this still high bro it's a metroid 2 remake !!!!!!!

  • When this is finished im gona do a lp of it

  • once again...ZERO MISSION!!!..already out..GBA

  • @makorix1 zero mission isn't a remake of metroid 2, its a remake of the original metroid.

  • Comment removed

  • @makorix1 it looks similar graphically to Zero Mission but this isn't Zero Mission dude...it's definitely M2...no Alpha Metroids in ZM...

  • @xXCoDemosXx It also takes place on a completely different planet.

  • Ridley looks tough as shit!

  • THIS IS AWSOME!!!!!!!!!!

  • Will this be available for VBA?

  • @MrCowabungaMoo No because the Doc' is making it with Game Maker.

  • so they didn't just remake the game ! they added the charge beam, the power bombs, wall jumps, and even the upgrade system of the beams, so every beam combines with the one before. nice

  • I've been following this forever and the only thing I dont like is the music I have heard. Hopefully its easy to make a music profile/playlist or just edit the tracks. I havent heard a lot of songs obviously but what I have heard is to cartoonish as if it was a Mario or Sonic game and not a Metroid game. It needs to have serious atmospheric songs like the franchise(before Other M). Maybe OCRemix has some Metroid 2 remixes...

  • It's interesting that they used the Zero Mission engine and not the Super Metroid engine.

  • @osmosys808 To be exact, it's a modified platform engine by Martin Piecyk. The graphics are Zero Mission/Super Metroid style.

  • @kissapoikanen I see so they made their own engine and went with some stock art from both games. Killer.

  • Damn Doctor M64 this is an awesome game! I gotta say if isn't finished you should finish it and release it for download. Many people will dig this for sure!

  • Comment removed

  • they should make this game a WiiWare or for NDS but nintendo is not thinking righ now

  • @darktemplar1010 I don't think it can be ported to a nintendo system or a sony system, because its a game maker game. They could once the technology improves, but at the moment, it can't yet.

  • i wnoder when this wonderful game will be finish, is a shame that nintendo didnt remake this game, is so awesome

  • i would play this game, even if its not a legit nintendo remake

  • 2 people got attacked by alpha metroids while watching this video

  • @TwilightWolf032

    Omega actually.

  • @shpladau Alpha would fit in more, because there are alpha metroids in this video.

  • @3dgisawesom3

    Ehhhhhhhh... I guess...

  • i liked it

    

  • Hmm... The alpha Metroid could use a little more animation.

  • @AeonCommander You have to remember this was made almost 3 years ago, so it probably is different now.

  • @3dgisawesom3 Oh, I know. Just my two cents.

  • @AeonCommander

    What 2 cents? you're a poor hobo on the street. idiot.

  • @AlexRmetroid Hey, that was uncalled for. What did I say to be called an idiot?

  • This game looks AMAZING! I can already tell you put a lot of work into it =D

  • if the alpha metroid its cool, wait to see the omega ones

  • Wtf is that metroid count in the upper right corner?

  • @robto333 That was how Metroid 2 worked. Progression was controlled via how many Metroids were destroyed. There's a huge lava pool that blocks your way until you destroy all the metroids in the area. Once you killed a certain amount, the lava would go down and you could continue to the next area. This continues until you reach the queen at the bottom.

  • @robto333 it's how many Metroids are left in the game...your goal in M2 was to hunt down and destroy every Metroid on the planet...

  • Does this work with the visual boy advance emulator?

  • @Nidolord777 if you look on the blog all the demos are exe files so you can only run it on windows

  • How can I get my hands on this ROM? Have you ever thought of distributing this Doc?

  • @JTisGOD Uhm.. it's not out yet >.<

    And it isn't a ROM, it's an EXE.

  • I know nintedo probably has found this Project out.

    It is fair use however.

    The plot is the only similar thing

  • Man I've finished your confrontation a while ago and now I just can't wait to play your remake >.<

  • holy fuck dude, i cant wait

    i really hope this works out, i want it so bad

  • Nintendo gave us Other M, but how I wished they'd make a classic Metroid game !

    I'm playing all of them twice per year and I can't get enough.

  • you guys know when its gonna be done

  • @dshanea1 Check out his blog. That's our source for updates and downloads.

  • Cant wait till its out. Do you have an ideqa´when you will be finish

  • Hey if you give this out for free, make sure when they come around to stop this tell them "Fair use"

  • Id advise like many have to tread carefully you are using copyrighted material and if used for profit you will be in for a world of hurt my advise contact nintendo and see what you can work out with them in terms of usage rights and Im sure if your work is as good as this video they would gladly work some sort of agreement out with you. Either way be careful Id hate to see this fail because of carelessness

  • This is really awesome. Music sounds fantastic too. I hope you guys don't receive a C&D from Nintendo though!

  • this remake is excellent, it's got features from all the 2D platform metroid games, in terms of environment, enemies, and puzzles

  • 0:34 castlevania symphony of the night background? wut?

  • @llXanatoll

    Why would Nintendo, who owns the Metroid title, Samus, etc., not be able to remake this? While this is a good game, unless he went to Nintendo and got their permission to remake this and use the sprites, he couldn't sue them, they came up with the original game, and so technically, they could just take this game and make it their own, and never give him credit

  • really nice smooth animation for the metroids :)

  • dude this is so awesome pleese finish this so we can play it, since nintendo wont get the hint that we want a remake already

  • awesome, you can hurt the Metroids with your beam?

    FINALLY!

  • @Hawkshadow741 It's testing... in original, it don't.

  • @Fredcat11 ...dammit

  • @Hawkshadow741 And I looked closely, it's Missile, not Beam in this testing game too.

  • @Fredcat11 I'd think if they stacked the beams, Ice, Wave and Plasma could harm a metroid...ah well

  • @Hawkshadow741 Like Super Metroid? Maybe...

  • @Fredcat11 That would help, seriously...just ONCE, I wish you didn't start out with so little

  • @Hawkshadow741 Little power? Or little brat?

  • @Fredcat11 So little power...

    what little brat? o.O

  • @Hawkshadow741 That comment I added was just a joke. But that's how her suit start at that time she went on the mission.

  • @Fredcat11 Heh

  • @Hawkshadow741 But yea, little odd, all in 3D games, she started with 99 Life Points, while at that game, she started with 30 points?

  • @Fredcat11 Indeed

  • @Hawkshadow741 Maybe that's earlier version back in that time when she was bring to life of consoles.

  • @Fredcat11 more then likely

  • DAMN, THIS GAME IS SO COOOOOOOL!!!!! If the developers are reading this comment, please, release it faster or at least give us any information! And please, don't make radical changes on the maps, new bosses (just make the old bosses better) or a stupid extension like they did in the remake of Metroid 1, Metroid Zero Mission, after killing Mother Brain. Just make it exactly like Metroid 2, but with discrete changes. A good remake allways has to be discrete, many differences screw it up.

  • @BrunoSan1986 Remakes always are different from start with the new graphics, so instead of talking bullshit, about doing changes discrete, shut the fuck up, and enjoy it as a new game based on the original, like Zero Mission is a tribute to the original...

  • @luigocelo Wow, you get annoyed by little. It's just my opinion, pitiful freak, relax... =/

    About the graphics, I don't believe you think I was saying they should be the same quality of 1986. Of course the graphics, as the game play and soundtrack, should be improved. The game is fun to play, but I didn't like the extension and new bosses (except the hive) at all.

    Repeating: MY opinion.

  • @luigocelo As well as lack of save station.

  • Dude... I would totally buy this game from u.

  • great game ;)

  • This would be pretty epic on Wii Ware

  • If this is ever finished, they should port it to a downloadable channel for the Wii.....hacking of course. As awesome as this is, Nintendo would never take it with a thank you and your name in the credits, it just isnt their style

  • Loojs kuje nzn....

  • where can i find this game ???

  • Seriously Bro, You can make some Nice Money With This Game.

    Is Buy it

  • @phazon40 If he sold the game he could be sued by nintendo.

    But yeah.This looks amazing and really smooth.

  • Where do I find this music for download?

  • Man, what I find cute is between the constant similarities with Castlevania and Metroid is that both games with the number 2 (Metroid II/Simon's Quest) are not only really underrated, but both games are getting fan remakes.

    All hail the Metroidvania.

  • Please hurry on finishing it I'm to excited. The Demo is awsome too.

  • HAHA ITS NOT GONNA HAPPEN!

  • @Th3MufF1nU8 Oh it is, and it will be awesome. Sorry to disappoint you.

  • I love how youve seemed to fuse the weapons. Do they stack? And I love the new metroid design and how they harder to hit.

  • lol what's funny is...i just beat the original gameboy version about a month ago...and never knew they were remaking it....the new sheeit looks hot as f*5k

  • I can haz?

  • The second song's drums oughta be more orchestrated...using only floor quads with cymbal crashes. I know Metroid doesn't normally do orchestrated but the faux-choiral on-offs would sound better with orchestrated drums...

  • the music at the start sounds awsome, is it downloadable anyhwhere

    

  • @phazon911 would be like 3D don't you think so? o_O'

  • Graphically, this is amazing.

  • After nearly being killed by a bunch of Metroids on her first mission, Samus decided to upgrade her suit and make her very own, custom rogrammed, ultra advanced combat simulator to sharpen her skills.

  • I have new idea, you can have a visor that you select and then press (arm) to activate. You can move it up and down like the X-ray sscope from Super Metroid, but you can switch out different functions for it in the Status subscreen. It would have built-in light amplification (night vision), but you could switch between four different functions, two of which you start out with. Scan, Targeting, Thermal, and X-Ray.

  • You should have 100 units of energy to start with. This is a fan-game after all. Also, the surface should have an accelerated day-night cycle.

  • Nintendo is releasing the 3ds. I bet if you showed Nintendo this game and offered to sell them your idea they would buy it and release it on the 3ds either as download content or an actual game. Please think about it.

  • It would be really cool if Nintendo would do this and release it on DS.

  • is this canon? does it match up pretty close with the real metroid 2? cause if it does, that would be awesome!!!

  • I can't believe there are two ppl that DON'T like this...those two ppl need to fuck off, seriously, this is awesome!

  • is this the official music if so i just came

  • You should send this to Nintendo HQ and ask them to make you a senior creator for some of their products including this one as a lunch.

  • this would be even cooler if you but the super metroid style to it not the zero mission (well at least samus would be cooler) =D

  • I hope you and your allies pull through and finish this remake! You would be my favorite human if you did. :o

  • I sincerely hope you will keep this project under the radar from Nintendo DoctorM64. I would hate to see a great project like this get a C&D letter when it's nearing its completion.

  • were can i play this game ?

    i just play : Metroid: Confrontation

  • YOU TROCK MAN

  • DoctorM64, let me just say, that with these preview videos you've been making put all of the original games to shame! I really would like this to be out this year. Every single one of the new features you've been introducing make me feel that Metroid 2 was missing something. Keep it up! :)

  • wikid!!!!

  • what is that you face as a boss in mp2?

  • ive looked at your blog and this progressing realy well,i cant wait for it 2 b out and keep up the gud work. our the best ever

  • Looking good. I only found out about this recently and I'm impressed. With Other M coming soon, I'm in the Metroid mood and was wondering if I should play 2 again, but I just might wait for this beast now.

    Keep it up, and I hope the "man" won't shut it down.

  • 66666 views!

    This fangame is awesome!

  • I can't wait man is this game already made or what? I've already beaten the original it took me years to do it but I got it beat, the original game is very confuseing.

    does this game also support gamepad controlers for PC?

  • It just looks like a weird version of zero mission

  • when is the real out

  • Looks amazing! Glad someone is out there remaking it! Unlike Nintendo who is too lazy to remake such a cool game.

  • @ShadowLinkk666 The only remake was Metroid Zero Mission.

  • it look really good. some company should let new designers if it looks good enough do updated remakes of past games to allow them to be relevant

  • 1:07 holy shit alph speed boost!

  • Epic. I hope it plays as nice as Super. It certainly looks very promising

  • wow. kinda like super metroid

  • better actally

  • Something still bugs me.... how come you can kill Alpha, Gamma, Zeta, etc Metroids with just missiles, but the standard ones need an ice beam to be defeated? Or can they be defeated without it?

  • First off, this looks awesome. I've played the original and can tell that you've definitely done your homework.

    Second, as tempting as it is, you might not want to give this publicity. Nintendo has shut down non-profit, fan-made games in the past. What's worse is that they usually wind up hitting you with a cease and desist letter when you're about 95% done with your project.

    So, I suggest you figure out a clever way to hide your work and only let a few people in on it until its finished.

  • Like me! :)

  • @llXanatoll That was an interesting and cool comment. I didn't know that about Nintendo, but if that's true, the developers must be very discrete.

    I don't see any problems in fan games based on original series. I've played a lot of fan games from Tomb Raider in its level editor program and I liked some. Well, all we know is that Metroid SR388 is more expected and focused than any other fan game I've ever seen before. I hope they don't screw it up with radical changes. I think they won't.

  • @llXanatoll What other projects have been shut down by nintendo? at 95% completion?

  • @llXanatoll why would nintendo shut down games that dont make any money, they arent making anything from thier product and if anything, this game would advertise metroid 2

    is it because they are to lazy to remake this game themselves

  • @jarrodDS2000 My guess is that it would limit what the official team could do. Let's say that this is completed, made available for download, and then Nintendo comes out with their own remake of the original game. If there is any striking similarity between the two, DoctorM64 could sue the company for royalty rights, demanding credit for an element of the game that he came up with first. On the other hand, if they play it safe, they have to avoid many potentially great ideas.

  • @llXanatoll

    Well then we better hope Nintendo buys this so everyone can play it. If what you say is true, then it might be possible that they would make it's download or anything else, illegal. So if they do find out, I hope Nintendo buys... except it might not be for a console.

  • I hope that the speed, gravity, and jumping are the same as ZM. I took me a while to get used to fusion, and i hated fusion's jumping.

  • I never played Metroid II. I'm glad somebody's remaking it so I'll finally have the chance. This looks incredible so far, I like how it takes certain elements from Fusion and some from Zero Mission. Do you have any idea when this will be finished?

  • As long as he respects the proper copyright (disclaimer, making no money with it, etc) he should be fine.

  • yeah nintendo already owns this idk if they found out about this will it get taken sued idk and i hope it gets finished

  • Should sell pitch the idea to nintendo and they might accept (you'll get rich :D) ... anywayz I'll by this on the DS!

  • You should try to sell this to Nintendo. I would pay $20 for it from the Wii store.

  • Technically, Nintendo already owns it.

  • He doesn't have the rights to the game probably. If he tried to without the rights, they'd sue him.

  • @bklimt Screw the Wii, I wouldn't mine playing this on my DS. One Metroid 2 to go, please!

  • @FireSparkProductions Exactly, and it can be similar to how the new Pokémon games went: the status and map screens can go down on the touch screen. You could change the suit's upgrades in realtime, and when you pause via start, the status screen could shift to the top. That way, you can edit like the older games, too.

  • @bklimt Nah, I wouldn't say the Wii Shop, but the DSi shop would REALLY work!

  • @bklimt he would get sued for copy right tho :(

  • you say this is real? KUZ IT KIX AZZ!!!!

  • when do you plan on releasing the game into the raving audience?

  • He said he plans to release it this year, 2010. It said so on his blog.

  • You can also play the game with a controller? or at least the tastertua switch the y and z with me is baptized And now, he surplus of Z and I can not play (sorry for my bad english)

  • This remake will be for PC, because it's made using Game Maker. I'm pretty sure that DS doesn't have support for Game Maker games :P

  • i must say this looks amazing
