Pretty solid run, but still plenty of room for improvement.

Brah some games are just timeless. This is one of them, also a big departure from the original yet adapted it well to 1st person. I still come back to this and prime 2 & 3 from time to time. I

Samus: *Enters the room, jumps down and disables all thermal visor barriers by the time she hits the ground* The turret in the background waiting for the cutscene to finish: Am i a joke to you?

i love how they nearly been everywhere in the game and then just casually grabs the missles later into the run... haha

[@mikeprovost]

Last time I paid attention to Metroid Prime speedruns, 100% was in the 1:20 range...wow. Your scan-jump timing is awesome. On my best day, it still takes me at least 10 tries to nail that early space jump boot grab. Going to rewatch this and fire up the Gamecube. Awesome playthrough!

[@jackychang9148]

It really is incredible. I can't dream of doing something like this.

[@ireneshelton3661]

@@jackychang9148Speedrunning in Metroid is just something else, I remember when I used to watch Dread speed runners *religiously!* Edit: just to hammer in the point, when Metroid Dread first came out, it felt like speed runners were discovering different skips, strategies and other things *every hour,* for a whole *month.* I don’t even see myself attempting a run, I just watch because they’re either super funny or super relaxing.

[@AlphaStrategyGuides]

Congrats! I remember the days when Kip's legendary 1:04 any% was considered nuts! And now it's only two minutes more for a 100% finish. 😳 Amazing work as always.

[@mrspeedrunwastaken1348]

it is reciculous he got this. absolutely mind blowing.

[@Yui-Chan9124]

5:19 - Just landed on Tallon IV and you got Space Jump in less than 10 seconds. Holy shit! As a non-speedrunner (who does enjoy watching speedruns) I'm just baffled!

[@buriedpet]

This is freaking INSANE! I had to double check that this wasn’t a TAS run. I thought I was hot stuff because I can beat the game in one day, and here you are DEMOLISHING it in almost an hour! Mad props dude, I can’t imagine how many hours of practice your poured into this run. Thanks for sharing your hard work! I hope you keep pushing it!

[@loganfox9424]

What a classic game. God hearing the music again. Brings me back. I miss this series. I hope metroid prime 4 will come out soon.

[@mrslabbulkhead]

I find it funny that I've been watching all your MP stuff (and it's all great, btw) the last few days, then suddenly we get todays announcement. The timing is incredible

[@skakirask]

This video inspired me to practice some speedrunning tactics in this game, and there's nothing better than getting the Plasma Beam early and vaporizing all the annoying enemies you constantly have to encounter.

[@itsdanielgray]

I like to imagine a real scenario where Samus is just this efficient and devastating. the entire chozo lore and battle for the planet took an hour

I played the demo back then... I've never felt so flaccid over a speed run. Amazing

[@dudders___1684]

man i love this game. when it came out i remember playing it at walmart when they used to have systems there that you could play on. but didn't get to actually play it until like 2005 sometime. just watching through this is giving crazy nostalgia

[@edwinatwell7423]

Amazing run Justin! Good to see you still enjoying this game. I watched your GDQ run years ago and was so thrilled to see that a prime community existed

[@devinbrice991]

This is kind of funny for me since i spent like 11 minutes trying to figure out how to open the first door

[@DoctorSwellman]

[@shnagashnaga3831]

I hate Phazon mines so much. And hate the space pirates place in Phendrana Drifts. You’re lucky you can do that base in Phendrana drifts so fast!

[@bamboochaLPP]

it's such a stressful atmosphere down there, I never thought so much about which way I will take to avoid all these annoying pirates and metroids. I love backtracking games but at some point it was so annoying that they respawn each time I left the room. Hope it will be a bit less annoying in metroid 2 and 3

[@shnagashnaga3831]

To know exactly where the Omega Pirate would re emerge is insane!

[@thenumberquelve158]

You can speedrun Metroid Prime 100% faster than I can speedrun Super Metroid 100%. This is INSANE. I know the Gamecube version has a lot of things that the Trilogy version patched up (I never had a Gamecube so my Metroid Prime experience has all been on Trilogy). But GOOD LORD. The way you play, the original game might as well be Super Mario 64!! I can't believe you SKIPPED the first half of the final boss. I mean, I can't believe MOST of this video, but that's especially hot.

[@Hughster127]

Yea, I just played through Remastered, and most of this stuff cannot be accomplished but on the original Gamecube version. :/

[@jozitro4554]

This is truly taking advantage of glitching out of bounds lol

[@emishimaru-sama6449]

What an amazing video. Makes me wish to replay Metroid Prime and apply many of these tricks x) [And by many of them, I mean not the out of bounds one. Pretty sure It's not as easy as this video enacted It Dx ]

[@jetty9678]

first time seeing a metroid speedrun but I'd imagine the way you fight the bosses could be lore acccurate.

Is the ghost trigger in the Furnace and Ruined Shrine RNG? I ask because I noticed they didn't appear for you. In one of my most recent playthroughs they never appeared in the Furnace but did appear in the Shrine.

[@JohnCillian]

What's the most difficult part about this speedrun that he performed?

[@not-the-main-character]

from what i recall, all out of bounds movement is very precise.

[@user-ko7lz3kr1d]

It's probably the Metroid Prime exo boss out of bounds skip in terms of one wrong move will lose the run, and the way he got out of bounds was incredibly fast, I remember watching people take up to a minute or more just to get the metroid to hit them out of bounds. But I can't say for sure because I've never tried to run 100%.

[@ireneshelton3661]

Hey, quick question: was this run on the Wii or the Gamecube? I thought it was the remaster until I saw you clip through the floor (very cool btw, I mean no harm).

Gamecube version played on Wii

Really should include that this isn't a glitchless playthrough in the title...

[@paularized1]

How could would it have been if the out of bounds intro meant you got to keep all the upgrades? Sure beats Samus losing them by getting booped on a damn wall.

No, he fucked up a trick in Chozo Ruins three times before getting it. To be fair, though, it looked pretty awkward. If it's not clear, I mean the room with the first save room you encounter in the Ruins.
