    Interestingly, her time as a pinball is oddly similar to the events in Prime 1, where she was not a pinball. It’s entirely possible that prime 1 was all a dream, and Prime pinball is canon.

    Metroid, Metroid, Metroid man I cannot get enough of all the recent Metroid love I'm seeing. I grew up with this game my whole life and it's been very underrated, but that's changing.

    Also not mentioned is that the ai WAS Adam When commanding officers died their suits took scans of their brains, samus collected his helmet at the end of other m and the ai in fusion is the result of the brain scan and her calling him Adam essentially woke him up.

    The telling of Samus's past is very faithful to the manga.

    12:07 And during their downtime, the Marines played giant robot soccer basically.

    Great video! Here’s something not a lot of people put emphasis on, but worth mentioning since you went over the manga: Like when Samus was a child, and Ridley killed her parents, Samus saw HERSELF as Ridley when confronting the infant Metroid. That’s why she let it live at the end of Samus Returns.

    would like if this had some visuals from the game, is a video after all
  • @SoulsOfWisdom
    I knew most of this plot, but I didn't realize Samus tried to befriend Ridley. This gives a lot more context in the Samus and baby Metroid dynamic. Samus did not want to be a monster like Ridley was. Very very nice touch to the storytelling.

    It was said in Fusion that there were "no fewer than 10 SA-X" . I'm kinda hoping that one managed to sneak aboard Samus' gunship and we see it again in Dread.
  • @AuraKnightStar
    Great summary. One amendment I will make is that it was a rouge faction within the Galactic Federation Military that created the Bottle Ship. After the Events of Other M the Federation Government attempted to root out the corruption. This is why Samus agreed to work with them in Fusion in what was supposed to be a purely scientific zoological study.

    Please do this for more series, especially Fire Emblem, as I can't find a good timeline explained video for it!
  • @wesley6571
    I've never really played Metroid but i'm hyped for Dread so this will be a lot of help :D
  • @CrispyCL306
    This was probably the best summary I have seen. And I have seen quite a few to see the consistency through them. Great work guys.
  • @Pizzaquirk
    I've played nearly every metroid to date, and I really appreciate the succinct recap of the story! So excited for a new mainstream entry to the series, and thanks for making this!
  • @ryantimlin5160
    For me, this was a nice recap but for many others this can be used to help catch them up in time for Dread. Thank you SO MUCH for making this video!! :)

    The Phazon planet in Prime 3 is called "Phaaze", not "Phazee"

    Today I ended my first Metroid game (Super Metroid). It's amazing game and not feel it's 27 years old.
