Mono audio is fail. Please fix and re-upload if possible.

@TheEndlessWarlock Sorry. Video is deleted. :( I've yet to determine whether it's my recorder or my video editor. It's been a while...

[legofan20]

What did you use? an emulator or the

Game Boy Player console?

[Soultrigger]

Game Boy Player from the Gamecube.

[legofan20]

How did you record this

[Soultrigger]

Same way you I record anything with an A/V cable:

Gamebridge 1400.

[icervis]

How come you can't blast the crap out of a hatch with a super missle???

[Meckastar]

Pause at 0:14 .... creeeeepy glare! =o

@Soultrigger

Perhaps re-record and playback to see hat the issue is?

[AnMitProductions]

Seriously, SA-X manages to scare the f out of us, but he dies to some larva Metroids?

@Nicksolo85 I think the SA-X tried to DESTROY the Metroids, but it's plan backfired.

[Nicksolo85]

Also, when/if the SA-X spots me (especially the 2nd time in Sector 2), I'm like "Holy shit!"

I also wonder why did the SA-X (in restricted area) release the Metroids? I assume X know the only thing more powerful than them is the Metroids. That SA-X basically brought on her/it's own death.

When I 1st played, I kept thinking I was encountering the exact same SA-X every time, but then [SPOILER] it turns out there was always more than 1 SA-X.

Probably at least 1-2 for every region I guess.

[Nicksolo85]

Sometimes when I encounter the SA-X (1st time in Sector 2, Sector 6 or even Sector 5), I like to terrorize her/it and we have a little shootout.

But I usually quickly press B+A+Start+Select at the same time on my GBA SP (which resets the game) right before I die.

If I do die, I don't press Save Continue or Save + Quit, I just do what I would've done (said above).

Then it seems like you played through the game without dying once.

I can also do it on Metroid: Zero Mission.

The word does exist,but the correct word is "vaccine",as in, Metroid Vaccine.

[SaviourV]

What do you mean by the word "Vaccence", by the way? I don't think that word exists.

[ALAKD3LTA221]

And finally,of course,Samus stated that the X hungers for "form,knowledge,and power...", which meant that the SA-X must've used the suit to take form,but somehow used part of Samus' memories in order to use knowledge,(but not all of it due to metroid Vaccence),and then merge into the suit itself,and with it,most of her latent abilities.

In addition,some people often find that similar to how Dark Samus was created,since they're the only being known to have Samus' DNA.

[SaviourV]

Collective consciousness, perhaps? I mean, ADAM also mentioned the presence of no less than 10 SA-X running riot throughout the station at one point....but then again, why not create an army of SA-Xs instead of various organisms to put down the last Metroid (which would be Samus Aran herself once the Omega Metroid was dealt with, but that never happened).

Of course, it's just a game, but if you were caught in a corridor with many doppelgangers aiming their guns at you, you'd go "Oh shi.."

[ALAKD3LTA221]

@SaviourV

Could be true...

However,so to speak,the X could have just 'grown' pieces to resemble the pieces of Samus's suit; although they can use the suit's abilities, presumably through data in the biological components. Also, when Samus is fighting the SA-X it begins to look distorted as the fight goes on, which also suggests that the appearance of the suit was affected by the SA-X's will and not actually a real suit at all.

[SaviourV]

Could be that the Chozo probably managed to come up with some sort of organic technology. If that is the case (given that they were quite an advanced civilization or so some say), then chances are that the X managed to obtain those aspects.

Also, the X CAN absorb technology, if you recall how one Core-X managed to absorb the Varia Suit upgrade which strengthened its shell. It completely wrecked the machine that housed the upgrade, so perhaps the X are indeed very resourceful parasites.

[ALAKD3LTA221]

It is interesting to note that, while the X was capable of infecting the bio-organic parts of the Power Suit, it is already known that the X cannot infect robotics and technology- thus the technology and metal shell of the suit should not have been infected. Yet it is known that the SA-X had multiplied at least 10 times in the course of Fusion, thus raising the question as to how the SA-X copies obtained the technological aspects of Samus's suit.

[CDclaymations]

EPIC! ahhh i love how metroid uses technical terms to describe a villain. such as: "victim had life drained slowly from body"

(describing a metroid attack).

[JLDSpielberg]

SA-X's eyes look spooky.
