Metroid Prime 2 Dark Samus: Disappears in the air after getting wrecked by samus Metroid Prime 3 Dark Samus: Returns throughout the whole game and explodes after getting taken down with Aurora Unit 313 Metroid Prime 4 Dark Samus: Somehow is gonna be alive Result: This fucker is never gonna die!

[@Frostburnphoenix]

Exactly

[@draconicthemoelion7726]

The Metroid Prime requires Phazon to live. Dark Samus is the Metroid Prime. Phazon is a semi-sentient mutagen with a 'hive mind' on Phaaze. Phaaze has been destroyed. Dark Samus is not coming back. Sylux has been very strongly hinted at being the villain in the next game.

[@noisyphilosopherkrk522]

Gregory Sanchez I believe that er should be replaced with a ette because it does at least partially have a gender And if they do comeback my guess its through cloning and genetic memory because let's face it if samus can be Infused with metroid dna then the ever so delightful (not) federation will try to bring her back to (ab)use her just as they made bioweapons and cold proofed metroids (illegally) at the bottleship in metroid other m

[@draconicthemoelion7726]

@d coffey That doesn't work. You can't clone the metroid prime because it's an entity made from pure Phazon. it HAS no DNA. It imitates Samus by examining her DNA and making a reproduction of it by triggering a phenomenal, and violent mutation in its initial host body. Effectively, if you tried to clone Dark Samus, you'd end up with a metroid.

[@noisyphilosopherkrk522]

Draconic Beta-ing Now the question is would the metroid contain the mutated dna still even though the phazon is gone or would it just be another metroid variation? And my second question would be do metroids have genetic memory or not?

*[Starts viewing video nonplussed and bored from a long day of not much happening]* *[Jaw slowly starts reaching the floor in shock, awe, and respect]* I.....I need to extend this. I need to find the loop point immediately. This needs to be a solid hour of music, posthaste. If I didn't do it, I'd never forgive myself for letting the KZbin community down. This is quality. Just, pure quality derived from sheer talent at one's profession. Please let me do what I do best to this. Is it ok? Can I? I'm not even sure if my hands are clean enough to touch it. I'm not even sure if it even should be touched. But....I feel that it would be a disservice if I didn't. I mean, there was the remix that Vomitron did. And then there was the mix HaunterShadow did. But.....holy crap. This trumps both entirely. I...I know it sounds foolish, but I actually feel compelled to applaud as if I was watching a show at a theatre......and I think I will! Bravo! Bravo!!!!

[@ShadowsWrath4]

Ok um, I hope that you won't get mad or anything, but I ripped the video and extracted the audio. And um, I kinda went and extended it already. I'm sorry. I got motivated and hyped while listening to this masterpiece and I think I may have overstepped my boundaries a tad. But seriously, this is utterly fantastic work. I haven't uploaded what I've extended yet and I won't without your permission because I know that'd be the wrong thing to do but if you give the ok on it, I'll upload the results with full credit towards you. I'll put links to this video and your channel in the description like I'm supposed to, I promise. It's what I usually do anyways. Also: HOLY F***.

[@ShadowsWrath4]

Okay it's been 21 hours since I last commented and I'm literally shaking from the urge to upload it but I'm going to stay my hand as much as I can until Retro here actually replies to my comment, if he ever does. I really really want to help make all of his fans happy and stuff but ethics are important and I need his permission before I can actually do this. Must not upload masterpiece. Must not upload his Magnum Opus to the world. Must not make sure he receives full credit and all the attention is focused on him. *[wimpers]* Help me....

[@samus2sexyfordis]

Retro Hero 276 I hope not, tired of nintendo rehashing it's villains

[@dante8554]

Eh, I don't mind it if done right. However, I'm pretty sure Dark Samus is permanently dead anyway.

[@Masternecron247]

Retro Hero 276 Dark Samus is dead for good, this time. With Phaaze (and all the Phazon) destroyed, even if she somehow survived the 6th beatdown from Samus, the death of Phazon would starve her out. MP4 is the gateway for our much-loved sharpshooter Sylux to make a grand entrance as the new antagonist.

[@samus2sexyfordis]

Reckless Redcoat I see him more as anti hero through out the next chapter, I'm sure there will be another evil antagonist group which he may be involved with, or hell it would be badass if the galactic federation reveal their true nature and samus turns on them and allies with sylux and it's up to the both of you to take out the GF and in the end of some scenario stylus ends up risking his life for samus that would truly be a nice twist to nintendo beloved franchise for storytelling

[@Masternecron247]

The NIhilist Despite it being grounded lore that Sylux DESPISES the feds and Samus, I'd hardly call him an antihero; he'll go out of his way just to fuck shit up for them both on an apocalyptic scale. Sylux is full-on badguy nemesis material. But I do see your point. Given Other M, it's obvious the Feds aren't all goody two-shoes, which I like; adds a bit of grounded realism of no true good guys in such a hostile world. I, for one, think Sylux needs to become a pivotal character, at least, given the level of intrigue and mystery Retro designed him with, alongside his cameos in Prime 3 and Federation Force.

It's going to be kind of weird having MP4 star Sylux as the main antagonist instead of Dark Samus. Perhaps some kind of delusion or ghost of sorts will appear as a boss (assuming they don't retcon all phason vanishing from the universe). If dark Samus doesn't Appear then it will be strange having it be "Metroid Prime" 4 and not actually having Metroid Prime in it. (Excluding Hunters and Federation Force, as spinoffs it's not too crazy)

[@Lemuel928]

At least Federation Force is useful for Multiplayer Missions.
