This was the games that took over the school yard after yu gi oh, beyblades and Pokemon for my school. Every recess for months was prime hunter, 2v2s and free for alls. This multiplayer on a hand held was awesome. But near the end of its life span the games degraded into sylux vs trace. Good times.

I... really liked the game, am I alone? Like really? - Story was not really great, but environments were not that bad! + Best FPS controls for DS in my opinion. + Voice chat over internet play + Friends list + Rival list (with no need for friend codes) + Radar to search for rivals (Street pass was not even a thing at the time) + Online text chat with friends + Multiplayer game modes + 1 Game cartridge allowed for DownloadPlay and allowed to play every map with almost no restriction + Allowed to mix multicartridges with DownloadPlay + Player licenses with stats from player, friends and rivals + License achievements + 2 endings, completion ratio, playtime stats, cinematic view + Music and Sound Effects menu + Multiple audio options + Nice control settings + A few multiplayer maps really different from each other + 7 playable bountyhunters + Several weapons allowed for different playstiles and each bountyhunter had a special ability linked to its weapon + Player ranking + Online filters (Match my rank, any rank, worldwide, regional) + One of the very few games to support the rumble pack Maybe the other Metroid games were better in its story mode and graphics, but this game was really an awesome game in every category, except maybe... single player. (and just... Maybe...) It basically used EVERY SINGLE feature the Nintendo DS had access to and was one of the early games! BTW, I liked the video but you focused too much on the worst aspect at first, and some people who don't watch the full video still think this is a crappy game or something xD

I played the shit out of this game multiplayer when I was a kid & it was weirdly enough my gateway into Metroid series so I have to thank it for that. Fun Fact: Samus was actually considered the best character in multiplayer because her weapon perk was her super missiles locked on & you could do crazy Morph Ball speed runs around a stage to get to Vantage points. Noxus & Sylux were close seconds. The worst character was Kanden by a landslide.

I was a 5 star legendary hunter and honestly all hunters were good, but id agree that Samus was the Uno. trace was for the snipers, noxus was for the cheap freeze and shoot players. sylux was a "rusher" fast pace character with a nasty lockjaw 1hit kill alt. spire could climbs walls... but could shred you if you chose to stand in front of his Alt form. kenden and weavel were "alt and run" characters because their alts could mainly do damage if they were being chased . really fun game.

Does anyone remember Noxus' freeze glitch where you could aim at the ground and freeze someone from miles away?

Samus was definitely the strongest character and pretty much everyone who was really good at it chose Samus. The morph ball was the 2nd strongest alt form after sylux'. But auto lock missiles > health regeneration. god I loved this game.

i was writing a comment about how much i liked the video and as i was about to submit it the video got taken down so it didn't go through but i'll just say i enjoyed the video thanks for making it and stuff

I can play as a bounty hunter that separates his lower body and uses it as a turret and another one that turns into a caterpillar instead morph ball That alone makes it great, also it’s multiplayer was great back in secondary school (Mario kart DS was still the shiz tho)

Hunters was my first Metroid game and I really loved it. Imo the controls were quite possibly the best possible for a shooter on console.

You nailed pretty much all of the game's strengths and weaknesses, but... it was still the best portable FPS of it's time; especially the multiplayer. It was in some aspects outdone later by other games like COD WAW, but I still consider it an impressive work.

I love the original Doom and still sometimes play it, though with more modern mouse controls. As for modern FPS games that aren't purely linier but still follow a path: Half Life, Wolfenstein NE/ OB, BioShock, Metro, and Doom 4 are all pretty good. I do understand a thirst for more of that though, especially on handhelds. Metroid Prime games aren't exactly in the same category as Doom, but they still remind me of it.

He mentioned it in the video, joking about how you wouldn't be able to hit anything.

And this is where most Federation Force defenders fail to understand why people are so mad at the chibi feds when Hunters was also a subpar Metroid experience: the context behind each release! When Hunters came out, Metroid was at its prime (pun semi intended), with Metroid Prime being the best selling game in the franchise and Echoes just around the corner/just released (don't remember exactly which). In contrast tot hat, Federation Force came 6 years after Other M nearly killed the franchise! The idea that Federation Force is just a spin-off doesn't excuse its existence. If your franchise is going through a hard time, it's not a spin-off that's going to save it, it's a main entry in the series. Imagine if the last game in the Zelda franchise was one of the Philips CD-i titles; then after 6 years of no news about the franchise, they release Triforce heroes, but instead of playing as Link, you play as generic Hyrule soldiers. Every game has a context behind it, a timing that can determine weather or not the game will succeed. Look at Duke Nuken Forever: the game so long to get released, when it came out, most people had grown out of its humor that it became a bad title, whereas had it been released two or three years after its development begun, it would have been quite a good title for those same players. The visual style and lack of focus on Samus are the least of Federation Flop's problems; the real issue is the poor timing. Had it come out after, say, Metroid Prime 4, nobody would have felt it was a middle finger to the fanbase. But after 6 years of ignored complaints about Other M, and no new game in sight, it did feel like a giant middle finger! Context can make or break a game!

Well, Gorea's lair did appear in the middle of the Alimbic Cluster, pretty noticeable for the hunters while Samus was in the octolith temple of Alinos.

Believe it or not the game is stupidly well balanced. The primary fire is the most viable weapon to use in any situation so it makes the choice to use alt weapons actually meaningful. Short of a few bugs (Shadow freeze, boost stacking, OOB clipping) the only thing that is unbalanced is Samus' homing missiles. You can be anywhere on the map and that shit will hit you if it's even remotely flying your way and you can't avoid it and unlike alt ammo, missiles are REALLY common. Think you can get a sneak attack on her with the invisibility perk? Guess again, because she can just spam missiles in random directions to find your location way faster than any other hunter can. None of the other characters fare any better since their affinity boost is much less effective being either out-ranged or out DPS'd. You can always try using your alt-form but she also has the best alt form thanks to boost stacking so you'll lose there too.

Just wanted to say having been playing this... They do explain why Samus has to leave every time she gets an octolith. It says some security measure has been activated and that's probably why the guardians and all these things come out and she has to leave for it to reset. That last part is speculation on my part and sure it could have been better explained but they did give a reason.

I hope he just reuploads this video every day until the end of the year for a laugh lol

So did nobody use the lanyard that came packaged with the original DS that has a thumb-stylus on it? I keep hearing about the stick stylus complaint, but nobody was ever smart enough to use the lanyard thumb stylus. The game was miles easier to play with that. Same goes for Kid Icarus Uprising.

Metroid Prime 2: I am tired of searching keys, guess I'll watch the bossfight on youtube. Metroid Prime 3: Playing on Veteran gave me the best experience. Like if you cried during Rundas Death... Metroid M other (of God): JESUS KILL IT WITH FIRE. THEY PLAYED US METROID FANS LIKE A DAMN FIDDLE. GIVE ME BACK BY 50 BUCKS. I WANTED TO PLAY THE GAME, NOT WATCH CUTSCENES. I RESPEC THE WAMEN.

The 'fear factor' of this game is a very interesting point to bring up. The hunters were scary as a kid. Their intro cutscenes make them all out to be menacing and when they showed up I would get legitimately tense. Of course I was a little dumb ass kid, but I played it through again in high school to celebrate Samus Returns launching and it was a somewhat ominous game. It's not scary, but the game definitely has a moody atmosphere. Didn't really think of it like that until you pointed it out in your review, though.

Thanks for reminding me about one of the few nostalgic feelings I had towards highschool

Weavel's little laser-blade brandish in the intro was some of the hypest ass shit out there.

I like it when games import the multi-player maps into the campaign, it's pretty cool seeing how areas interlink.

The Hell you expected? The game is 11 years old and it was a ds game.

And yet the two Metroid games on a weaker handheld system, Fusion and Zero Mission, are still fun to play today!

Tenshi Cat I realize this is an old comment but I had to respond. This is because Fusion and Zero Mission replicate the SNES style of Metroid games. Which is easy to do with the hardware provided. With Hunters being a Prime title, people expected Prime 1 on DS which simply isn’t possible given it’s hardware limitations. Hunters is repetitive and lacking compared to its mainline titles, but it’s was never supposed to be one. It’s a spin off and, quite frankly, one of the most graphically and mechanically impressive DS games to come out so early in its lifespan.

Then why didn't they make a game that wouldn't have been held back by technical limitations?

What's up with the fuckin like Jontron voice at the beginning? Please don't end up making videos just like everyone else.

You mean you're not sick of the "slurred lmao XD so funney" talk that every game reviewer does now? Golly. Also I believe the slurred speech was started by the Mr. Plinkette reviews way before Jontron did it.

Yeah, I'm just being vague about it. It's an overused thing. That mixed with Jpegs flying over the screen while you you speak. It's stale. Just dont want TGBS to overdo it 'cause I really like his stuff.

Its only for like 30 seconds in a fucking 18 minute video...

"Where did you go, Samus Aran?" Oh boy, I have some good news for you.

Ah yes, another Metroid video from gaming brit. Excellent! I love these.

Just returning to this video to drop a cheeky little comment about Sylux and Metroid Prime 4 Beyond...

THE RETURN OF SYLUX! Finally 🙂

Man I feel that part about the logbook scan percentages, the closest I ever got was like 98% to this very day I don't even know where the last couple of scans may even be.

SYLUX IS COMIN BACK BABY I hope there's a lot of Kriken presence in Prime 4 as well :s I think it would be insaaaaaaaaane to be able to go to their empire's capital planet. Idk.

i loved metroid prime hunters. i would love a remake of it, though with updated boss fights (including adding more mini-bosses)

The bounty hunter designs were so good, diverse and memorable. Also this game was creepy af. It was actually traumatic, paranoia set in whenever you sensed a bounty hunter would appear. I definitely agree that they could have fine tuned that concept

I had so much fun with this game’s online multiplayer back in the day. I remember vividly sniping people as Trace while cloaked high up or playing as the snake guy in his morph form and just spamming his homing tails to screw people up. I was a pretty darn good rank at one point lol

This was my first Metroid game and what made me a fan. It's nostalgic to see it again

love the way you write!

I swear the guardian in this lava room shocked me back then

One thing I'd really hope to do in a future Prime installment is to be able to play as the other bounty hunters from Hunters in a single player campaign. It'd be really cool to be able to play a story through a completely alien perspective. They're too cool to be used only once as playable characters in a multiplayer mode from a DS game.

Where did you got the uncompressed cutscenes? can you show the link?

I like how they actually had some lock on controls in mind originally, but scrapped them for the multiplayer....

I liked how it kept the the count down from the retro games for the gameboy

Man, I loved this game when I first played it. I remember actually training myself in order to acclimate myself to the crazy control scheme. This game will always hold a special place in my heart. But, on a different, yet similar, matter, how amazing would it be to have a Mass Effect style Metroid Prime game where you can actually catch bounties, explore dozens of planets, and find ancient alien artifacts, all while being able to play as different bounty hunters. Just imagine if the game also allowed you to play with other players online. You could team up with friends or strangers or catch others who have racked up bounties on their head. Ahh...one can only dream.

Anybody who played MPH on Wi-Fi but stopped because the servers were shut down, there is still a forum of players that are still online with a different server. We are looking for even more players so anyone who wants to join us to play mph in 2017 is welcome :)

So... is that beginning bit a Plinkett impression, or a "Super Bunnyhop does a Plinkett impression" impression...?

subbed!!!!!! quality content man

This video just showed me the last thing that I haven't scaned and that I was searching for so long: Sylux's spaceship. Great, now I have to restart the entire game just to not miss it this time.

Wait, you can't use your finger for aiming? I played it on an emulator, and touch (finger) controls are so damn crisp! Also I could jump with any of action buttons.

Crazy how this managed to run on a DS

Could've sworn I was subscribed to you since your Ratchet analysis movie thingie. Bless KZread for recommend videos

As a lefty who quickly discovered that trying to use the face buttons to move was like trying tighten bolts using a G-clamp with my armpits I actually did aim with the face buttons, yeah my accuracy when fighting bots was like 17%

Also meant Spire wasted me once in single player and damn I hunted that prick down

Ah Memories. Played this game to death in school when it came out, had some classmates to play it in local multiplayer. It was great fun and the different hunters were a good idea for multiplayer. I actually broke the shoulder buttons of two different DS.

At least that Sylux thing is gonna play out now, Metroid Prime 4 babyyyyyy

8:04 I believe this does happen albeit only twice - there's a point in the second level's second half where one of the hunters is scripted to show up in the next room (I think it's Spire) and you can scan something in the weird loading hallway that clues you in to this. There's also another one in the ice level but I forget where cos its been 4+ years since I played the game

I never used the Stylist for aiming in that game, props for playing the whole game that way.

I’ve wanted a console multiplayer metroid with your choice of hunters ever since this game, so YES!

As far as gameplay balance went in multiplayer, Sylux, Trace and Noxus were the dominant characters. Sylux was by far the best, not only because of how his weapon workd, but also how his morph mode could dish out ludicrous amounts of damage if used properly (plus it was the fastest non-Samus morph mode). Trace could get his sniper weapon on any map so his presence was always headshot central, and Noxus had a glitch associated with his ice beam that allowed him to freeze opponents from far away. Kanden's weapon had the highest damage per second however, due to how spammable and fast the uncharged shots were. Samus unfortunately was easiest to headshot (iirc), but more often than not you wanted to morph ball with her and just slam into opponents while laying down bombs. Weavel had the benefit of being able to glitch into places other characters couldn't, so he could take an early lead and run away. Poor Spire had basically nothing going for him, poor lad.

This game's soundtrack still kicks arse and is in general my favorite soundtrack of the series. The haunting melodies of Arcterra, the creepy as shit second visit to Celestial Archives, the moody yet catchy first visit to Celestial Archives and Vesper to the badass multiplayer themes. Barely any of it was flat remixes yet all of them remain so memorable to me.

this was my first game of the series and i loved it thank you for this vid (btw my hand never cramped up during 6 hrs of playing)(also jumping is ez u just dont have practice)(it also took me 25 hrs to beat rather than 5)

There were so many clans in this game. Plus NS and GF hated eachother until the day NS died. This is literally my favourite game of all time.

Got a link to those higher quality renders?

It's a little imprecise, but there are control options to move jump to one of the shoulder buttons and use the ABXY buttons to move the camera. EDIT: Okay, you did cover that. Like I said, it's not very precise, but with practice I saw some success (Especially since the game has pretty generous hitboxes on most enemies).

Where did you find those uncompressed cutscenes, I can find them anywhere!

Still it made a good introduction to the series for me since I loved the game when I played it and it inspired me to metroid 2 and then I got more and more of the series, so I owe a lot to that game, very nostalgic to me
