[TAS] GBA Super Metroid - GBA Edition "101%" by Mikewillplays in

This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see tasvideos.org/5489M
TAS originally published on 2023-08-11
Super Metroid - GBA Edition is a ROM Hack of Metroid: Zero Mission that changes the level design to be nearly identical to Super Metroid on the Super Nintendo. While not a complete 1:1 remake, this hack does what it can to be as faithful to the original game as possible.
Mikewillplays ( tasvideos.org/Users/Profile/M... ) aims to beat the whole game while collecting 101% of the items.

This one is the best original SM "remake" I've ever played. The creativity to recreate elements of the original game is totally awesome.

Igt 36:52

[@enkerzan3755]

I can see there was an engine limitation of moving surfaces, it's neat what you find in recreations like this. The super missile puzzle at the end was interesting, I don't think that has ever been done before. That would make for some interesting restrictions in later games. Overall this was a neat recreation, my only complaint is the lack of bosses. A lot were missing, which makes this too easy. I wonder how this would go on Fusion's engine.

Hope you enjoy this TAS!

[@user-sz3rs6hr1h]

all of the changes from super metroid in terms of progression makes me feel violated

[@chuckthequail137]

54:12 And Now, the Moment nobody was waiting for

[@slavetothecaffeine]

That super missile room made me lose it

[@goremaballer]

Cleanest BT skip I've ever seen

[@JFJD]

Pretty good effort, considering the tools they had to work with. Some jank when dealing with stuff the original had that they couldn’t replicate (up/down facing doors, for example), but all in all a solid re-creation of the SNES classic. B+. Oh, and the TAS was entertaining, as expected.

[@_thresh_]

I didn't even know this existed but I definitely prefer the original

[@RayaneJspVoila]

Just putting that here 6:50 35:07

Terminal montage moments

[@link14GP]

GRACIAAAAS!!!!

[@CjuniorP725]

this made me realize how similar Zero Mission and Super Metroid are 😭

[@AZSprocket]

If this was a real 1st party port back in the day, I would have bought it

[@Versaam]

37:41 that’s gotta be embarrassing for crocomire

[@skk0_0]

that is the best video of a TAS. I Be looked

[@aznxknight]

I know they tried and a lot of effort was made to make it look 'almost' the same as super metroid, but seriouslly though, if i wanted to play super metroid I would play super metroid. It's a very good attempt though. Btw, 51:26 NICE. And then 51:39, LMAOOOO.

[@maxence6168]

How many missiles do you want ? Samus : YES

[@diegor8198]

Terminal montage be like: 1:58

[@lordsquid6652]

Needs explosions

[@demonicar]

What was the deal with the robot head fight at the beginning? It also seemed to be missing a lot from Super Metroid.

[@DexXO-sg5fu]

They were working with zero mission models and scripts so most boss fights are missing obviously

[@Rjciralli]

29:49 Spazer and Plasma together… Oh, Mother Brain is Screwed already.

[@user-sz3rs6hr1h]

murder beam

[@randkami8074]

Personally, wished the Spazer Beam's code was made it's own separate patch for normal ZM

[@Ironeagle21]

that 5 wide beam with all them combined is insane!

[@victoraguilar7950]

Buen video, Super Metroid con graficos de Metroid Dread. Imagina esa posibilidad

[@SuperPonySaiyan9000]

Puede ser, aunque yo creo que eso podría quedar para un futuro remake de Fusion

[@moacruz9861]

Meanwhile i am crying, On the side Because I don't know how to do what pro and speed runners can do

[@PrimevalDemon]

Wait why is it so zero mission-y though

[@randonologic4684]

It's a GBA hack of Zero Mission. This hack tried to recreate Super Metroid in Zero Mission's engine.

[@e621_]

Samus could have any number of toe fungi after running around on countless planets. Imagine a very moist dark green cyst growing on her right foot, along with a throbbing deep red giant mole on her left foot. My son is crying right now because I had to explain what this could do to people.

[@boogaloobender3462]

What the actual fuck is wrong with you

[@romank.5261]

I think the franchise needs to trend somewhere away from the solar system where Zebes planet was located. In this stance the Metroid Dread had a good move. I would also completely revised all suit's features and made enemies looking less cartoonish. All that mosquitos and worm-like insects should be left behind. The metroid franchise needs to breathe life in by making some updates. Regarding this GBA version TAS: good job, it would be great to see also reverse boss order TAS.

[@Putnam3145]

Only ZM/1, Super and Prime took place in that solar system, SR388 isn't in the same system

[@thehellsage]

@@Putnam3145 IIRC, you can also include Prime 2 in that list. Aether and Tallon IV are in the same system. UPDATE: Per Wikitroid, they're all in the same galaxy, though not explicitly the same star system.

[@romank.5261]

@@thehellsage Exactly. Prime took place there. There was even observatory room in the game where it was shown. Scroll 6, Threat never ends could be added. It's homebrew but whatever. I mean Ridley, sidehoppers, ripers and other that type of creatures should be eradicated from the franchise. Now is next gen era, right? So let's make next Metroid more brutal, maybe even bloody and more enhanced in terms of graphics, we fought bugs enough. No matter if it's 3d version or sidescroller. Many criticize the Metroid other M for some silly story moves "missiles not allowed" etc but i also think that adding really good story line is good idea for the game. Also, bad thing is when you about to complete the game, let's say 80 plus percent you usually got only extra missiles and bombs to collect, it is boring. We need some really interesting feature to aspire to when you reach 100%. Extra level maybe. It's just important not to spoilt everything like they did in the Price of persia lost crown"😄

[@Putnam3145]

@@thehellsage there's an orrery with every planet in the solar system in MP1, which is actually the only place that establishes zebes is in the solar system of tallon IV IIRC?

[@eg1789]

I like the added detail but never liked the sped up twitchy movement.

[@jeremymartin3724]

101% quoi

[@user-FGHC]

🇷🇺👍

[@Yostuba]

>GBA Super Metroid >remaking super in zero missions engine BASED... but fucking why lol inb4 because I/we fucking can. Metriod fandom can be so autistic man. Lets see someone do dread in fusions engine so it can go full circle. Wait dread in fusion would be really fucking cool art wise MAKE THIS HAPPEN.

[@burningwreckage00]

Considering there's a Zero Mission hack for Super Metroid, somebody probably felt some strange obligation to do the reverse...
