LOL i guess they didn't want anyone hating on it since it isn't a REAL Metroid game.

They shut down a good remake made by fans so that people would get there dog **** soccer game. That's a whole new level of suck and desperation for a game franchise.

You talking about AM2R? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QUwI_rYJ-TU

Yeah.

And thats not even the best part. This game was not going to be for sale. And this game was in development for a while now mind you. If Nintendo was going to shut the project they had a long time to do so. But as soon as the project is released "oh sorry fam, that **** ain't go fly". And this isn't even the first time they did this. A while ago, someone made a 3D remake of the original Legend of Zelda and it looked awesome. And then Nintendo shuts it down. And then Pokemon Uranium (another dedicated fan game) and that was shut down. But I can see the other side of what Nintendo was thinking a bit. AM2R is a remake of Metroid 2 and that's on the Eshop for sale. If people go out and get the free better version of a game, then why bye the old version which will cost money? Its a valid business decision on paper, and plus it's their brand anyway. But making a game takes a lot of work, especially with not much money put into it. It's a video game dedicated to what you built and inspired them with. Its kind of cold to do that to a fan if you ask me. Capcom take's fan games and places them on their websites and even places them on their facebook and twitter. That's awesome. But for Nintendo, they do the opposite. It does not help the franchise, it does not help the fan base and it does not help the company in the end.

I wholeheartedly agree with you. AM2R was created by fans who loved the Metroid series and wanted those who also loved the series to give it a try. They weren't trying to get people to buy it, it was free to play. But Nintendo be like, "Hah, nope." I understand that it's their product. Don't you think fan games of your characters might help boost their popularity and maybe make people try out the actual non fan games of the series? seriously Nintendo c'mon.

 

[The Merc]

I think the sadder fact is that the Soinc twitter account did more to celebrate Metroid's anniversary then Nintendo did.

I'm not a huge Metroid but even i think that is unfair of Nintendo

 

[Lord Renning]

To be fair, the Sonic's twitter shares a tier with Denny's twitter.

So apparently it's cool for Smashboards to write an article about a Japanese Link pulling off combos on FG, but very little is mentioned about T's or Cat's multiple top 8 placements at tourneys. Here's the vid. the writer was drooling over.

The only notable thing I saw was the footstool to bomb drops on Bowser.

 

[Dumbfire]

"they tend to exploit lesser-used characters to their full potential and show us what they are truly capable of" lol yeah doing some silly **** on FG, LINK'S FULL POTENTIAL, go ahead and shieldgrab mac's fsmash gonna bring you a lot of joy when facing all those weeaaak american macs who haven't unlocked his "full potential"

That kind of stupidity used to bug me a lot but I'm trying to not care and ignore it :/



I found an AMR2 speedrun. So this is what we're missing.

AM2R is so dope dude. It feels nice to actually play a Metroid game that isn't bad over the last 6 years. The best part is how good Samus controls accompanied with the music. I just got done beating the thing with the shell. The bosses I will admit are pretty hard at first, but its basically just remembering the move sets for them.

Me, Tsage and Rooky all made it out of pools at Shine!

I got M2K right away tomorrow so stay tuned and get hype!

It was a nice shot man. you'll get Gramps2king next time.

Yeah dude still on another level then me. But I'll get my revenge someday.

 

[link7]

Is Tsage vs Rooky being streamed? That's something I'd like to see.

 

[LordXav1er]

I don't think either made it to the stream for singles off the top of my head didn't see any other Links. But I'll check archives later maybe Rooky vs Larry or Mekos was.

 

[Rizen]

My kitten gets a ridge-back when she's scared; it's so cute. I'll try to sort through my pictures and upload some. I haven't had much time for that lately.

edit, here's her "helping" me play smash.

 

[Lord Renning]

Nice cuticle.

Went to PAX today, kinda disappointed in the lack of stuff from Nintendo. Other than a room dedicated to their indie games, they honestly had nothing going on. Their main booth only featured Dragon Quest and Yokai Watch as playable games, with a little Pokemon Sun and Moon on the side, which sucked cause you'd think they have something Breath of the Wild related. Hopefully it turns out better for them next year.

 

[IMßA]

Yo Cat, I saw you lost to the same player in losers @ avalon... the Zard main (Mank). Any thoughts on how we should have played against him? I had a really though time against him. He just shields everything, spot dodges on point. I just could not get anything started. What was your experience with the MU? It wasn't on stream, so I did not see the match.

I was doing pretty good up until I faced Mank. Got bodied by iStudying in winners round 2, but I'm not going to beat myself up for that . I was glad I could at least win a couple of matches. First time at Avalon it was the amateur bracket for me. This time I made it to 64th. Aiming for at least top 32 next time.

Btw Foxy, nice talking to you at Avalon. It was great seeing you rooting for your fellow Link mains

Oh hey man. Nice to see you've finally said something XD. I'd point you in the direction of some threads but you already know your way around.
Remind me, were you planning on going to syndicate? I was a bit tired due to jet-lag at the time so I don't remember a whole lot from that day.

 

[Dumbfire]

Yes Foxy's memory of that day is hazy (I only took mild advantage of it, a few touches in the no-no area, lock of his hair, some stolen goods the usual)

 

[IMßA]

@Foxy, I would have loved to go to syndicate... but by the time I knew it was going to take place, it was already full up . So my only option would be to go as a spectator..

Dumbfire , Nothing like taking advantage of a jetlagged moderator haha. Btw your Wii Fit Trainer looked flashy. Did you play Link in other matches, or did you go Wii Fit the entire tourney?

Why.... Hello Links.

Nice to see (some) of you are still standing. Good. I almost thought another incarnation of Demise destroyed you.

In my case, I've been posting more in other sections on Smashboards. (And I'm also looking forward to Breath of the Wild.)

So you flew to the Netherlands? Cool.

I played a Lucario; it's really hard to space him at first but I ended up winning about 1/2 the time. He has a lot of burst movements and techs. I need to practice several MUs.

Been buckling down, getting ready for university. Been playing more Melee than Sm4sh also.

^I barely have time to play either except at ungodly hours in the night :/ I'm enjoying playing tonight even though my timing and controls are terrible. Link's really fun to play

 

[Fox Is Openly Deceptive]

Well I'll be there in any case. I'd tell you to just come along as a spectator anyway, but they did raise the price so I wouldn't blame you if you chose to just watch the stream instead.

So you flew to the Netherlands? Cool.

It was kind of a spur of the moment decision. I was in between courses, I had the time and the money, it's something I've been wanting to do for a while, so I just went for it.
32 hours of travel later, it's really nice to be here.

 

[Nd_KakaKhakis]

Good luck at Syndicate this weekend Foxy.

Also there's no reason to at all but if you want to support ya boi Khakis getting to big house take a look below.

I bought 5 bottles of Crystal Pepsi. Apparently they're being discontinued again. Time to savor 3 of them, and save the last one for 20 years.
