Metroid Prime (Wii de Asobu): Vs Meta Ridley

[jpxstitch]

Lol you get the 100% Items token when you pick up the Artifct of truth.

[kissapoikanen]

Meta Ridley is called X9'_IP'_I- in this version, it seems :P xD

[Zyborggian]

WHOA Artifacts count towards your item collection? didnt know that

[UltimateGuy2000]

Why didn't you use WaveBuster when Ridley was grounded? I mean, you probably already know that it makes the Ridley fight easier, but I was wondering.

[PiccoloCube]

that only helps in the US version.

[UltimateGuy2000]

Ridley's only vulnerable to Plasma in this?

[PiccoloCube]

you can hit him with it but it's not nearly as effective as in the US version.

[UltimateGuy2000]

Ah, I see. What about the other missile combo with plasma? Same deal?

P.S. How do you perform missile combos in this?

[PiccoloCube]

that combo is crap.

also, you do the combos the same way as before. press the missile button when you charge the beam.

[UltimateGuy2000]

Lol, ok. =D Thanks!

[Zyborggian]

Although shooting it will look alot more cool with the wii controls.

I normally just get it because its fun to screw around with it when you have max missiles lol

[kcc09181Playthroughs]

its looks easy hes heath is going nown faster than it used to

[REZAandfriends]

does this still have to lock on thingi?

[Pikachu728]

Are we still able to SB in this version?

[PiccoloCube]

yep.

as long as the tricks don't require scan/combat dashes since those don't work like before.

ghetto jumps, bsj and other minor tricks still work.

[Pikachu728]

That's a relief. :D Although, if the physics are a mix, then I guess it's to be expected.

Thanks. Now I have an excuse to return to m2k2 more often. xD

[MetroidPeter]

What's the boost ball trick?

[PiccoloCube]

in the gc version, if you use the boost ball on him when he's attacking on the ground, you can make him go to the final phase instantly. i have a vid where i use the trick.

[papercanfly]

in this version they only have 1 beam icon at a time? the gamecube version it showed all you along with the different visors. why did they do that? also you know samus' helmet the back of it the long part on the gamecube version it went through the jump pack, but in this version it doesn't which is awesome! That bothered me in the gamecube version. (sorry this comment is so long I want this game!)

[PhazonPhantom]

I'm really looking forward to playing this and Echoes soon.

[papercanfly]

exactly, me too gonna be awesomeness

[Dshmokiez]

Do beams still stay separate or do they stack now?

[PiccoloCube]

separate.

the only changes here are new menus, spring ball and the pointer controls.

all the rest of the stuff is intact. enemies, bosses, places, items, all unchanged from the old version.

[primeEmu16]

hey, when you lock on can you move the reticle like on MP3? Or does it just freeze and lines up the shot automatically like on both MP1 and 2?

Also, the graphics dont seem to be updated, I'll still buy this game, I just figured if Resident Evil 4 could improve the graphics on Wii edition then MP1 could...

[PiccoloCube]

there's an option to make the cursor move like in mp3 after you lock on but i prefer to have it off to have the old style aiming even in mp3.

also, as far as i know, RE4 Wii wasn't updated over the GC version graphically either.

[quizlex]

Really? I thought I noticed some subtle, but definitley actual diferances. The water in certain areas was reflective and refractive on the Wii. Also During the village nighttime scenes it was alot darker, not to mention that the enemies polygons were greatley improved. Still this game looks great, I'll never tire of vaporizing space pirates and metroids!

:D

[supersonicxshadow]

i played the first MP once but didn't really do much. since they're re-releasing 1 and 2 for wii i can get em both now with wii controls and a bit better graphics :]

[X8Arbiter]

the achievements make the cutscenes a little less entertaining :P also........MUST HAVE WII REMAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[PiccoloCube]

don't worry, it only comes up the first time.

when you replay on the same file, it doesn't come up anymore.

[prower42]

oops! MP not MPH!

[prower42]

must... get... equipped with... MPH remake...

[noonewillknow123]

Does this game come with MP2? or is it just the first? Anyway, nice fight!

[PiccoloCube]

only the first.

the bundle was just fan hopes.

[noonewillknow123]

Damn, well I already have MP2 so I really needed the first anyway. So thanks!

[Xcat2]

Dude, I really want this game now! I'm already a pro in Metroid Prime 3, but the question is, "Does Prime 1 have the same feel as 3?" I'm 100% sure.

The Plasma beam looks like a 1 handed rifle.

Awesome video!

[LimmingKenny]

Is the language Japanese only?

[PiccoloCube]

sadly, yep.

i got through without problems because i know the game inside out already.

[TheGoodWillSpreader]

its a disc or it will be downlaoded from wii ware?

[PiccoloCube]

disc. too big for wiiware.

[RockXuXA]

lol

[LordTyphoon]

It's out? In JP?

[PiccoloCube]

yeah. came out on thursday.
