"Marines are not prone to such overkill." My guess is that they did this when they became Dark Troopers.

[@subprogram32]

I was thinking the same too.

[@angelvillegas9604]

They were already dead

This is my favourite of the trilogy. I actually think it's good you're playing the wii version, there a couple of absolutely unbearable bosses on the original that are actually doable on wii.

I loved playing this game when it came out, and yes it did scare me as a child.

[@roxzenova]

Trilogy is super cool

[@binaryftw]

A couple things of note: In this game onwards, the log you get from the scan visor is an abreviated logbook entry, and the entry itself will have a little bit of extra text. Also Prime Trilogy has a setting enabled by default called lock on free aim which you may want to disable; it's supposed to be so you can still move your reticle with the wiimote while locked on but I've never really found it helpful.

[@Quasimofo]

Ahhh, so I *do* still have to go into the logbook. Good to know

21:00 powered by explosions! Does that make it an external combustion engine? Also mouse and keyboard could be interesting as long as it will display keyboard controls. Hate to lose track of a button and have to remember what it was when the prompt is for another controller

[@Twisted_Logic]

They feel so good with mouse and keyboard! PrimeHack doesn't change the button prompts natively, but there's an endorsed secondary mod called Phazon UI that does just that

Super excited to watch you play this! I hope it all goes well seeing as how you had to emulate the game. It's a shame we didn't get a Prime 2 Remastered for Switch by now, but I digress. In any event, I'll comment on each video for this series anything that seems pertinent while simultaneously remaining spoiler-free. - You eventually realized, but yeah, when scanning, always remember that you need to press the A button or an equivalent on your controller to have the bottom text window progress forward to read the dialogue for the aforementioned scan, haha. Additionally, this text window is usually truncated for Logbook scans, whereas the Logbook entry itself will have slightly more information on the given scanned object, so it's always a good idea to just read all the lore from the Logbook. - Dark Samus is not on the official cover box art for Echoes, though there may be fan made renditions of such. - Samus does lose her Morph Ball in the original game during her classic "tripping down a well" moment. In fact, you lose practically all of the same items and abilities in this game as the first, minus the Boost Ball, Power Bomb, and Space Jump, as those are all abilities you acquire in the first game and don't have them by default. Thanks for the episode!

[@Quasimofo]

Yeah, I was really hoping for Prime 2 remastered by now, but at least I get to enjoy it nonetheless!

[@NeoDanomaru]

Wow it didn't take long for this game to go from Metroid to Resident Evil did it???
