Let's Play Metroid Prime--Part 9: Fitting In

The title of this part is doubly appropriate now that I've shortened the video after my first attempt at uploading, which wound up being ONE SECOND TOO LONG. It came in at 10:59 on iMovie and 11:01 on YouTube. Grrrrr... Then I tried uploading it again with a few seconds cut out and it still came in at 11:01. Double grrrrr... I'm glad that my third attempt worked. Anyway, the few seconds that I cut will be in tomorrow's part.

I've returned to the Chozo Ruins, where the Morph Ball has opened up some new paths for exploration. My first target is an item that I've been missing badly since the explosion on the Orpheon damaged the Power Suit's equipment.

Dude I feel your pain. I uploaded a video that was 2 hundredths of a second too long today, (it said 10:29 on final cut), and it rejected the video. But it was such a huge file, (my videos, once I begin uploading in the quality i want, will be in the range of 450 - 500 mbs), that it had been a 10 hour upload and 2 hour processing only to get rejected. UGH. lol

You must have a slow connection. I upload 300-MB videos in 20-30 minutes.

I upload in a room that's rather far from the wi-fi router. I've wondered, though, if a direct connection might speed things... It's worth a shot, anyway. I'll have to try it out.
