If you could change ONE THING about the Prime series...

[Toxsyl]

I'd add a boss to Magmoor Caverns, Allow for a zero suit mode (super hard mode... dirty joke damn), have the mp2/mp3 scan visor in Prime, wall jump, and speed booster.

I agree with all of those, as "hard" to read as they are. (referencing your dirty joke earlier)

I would give Samus' running a slight boost (not to Other M speeds, think more Super Metroid speeds) and add in a speed boost/shinespark mapped to a sprint key. The Map and Pause screens needed to be one screen, maybe freeing up the Z button for Morphing.

Normal:
(Control Stick) Move/Turn
(L) Lock Onto Target | Lock Aim | Lock Movement
(R) Fire Weapon | Rapid Fire (partially hold down) | Charge Beam (fully depress and hold) | Seeker Missiles (select five targets while fully holding down trigger) (Missiles Only) | Lasso (Grapple Beam Only) | Swing (Lock onto a Grapple Node) (Grapple Beam only)
(A) Jump | Shinespark (Hold while Boosting, aim (movement will autolock) with Control Stick, release within 5 seconds to go flying)
(B) Sprint | Speed Booster (Hold until Boost begins, then feel free to release the button and utilize Autorun)
(X) Select Grapple Beam
(Y) Select Missiles | Press with charged Beam for Missile Combo
(Control Pad) Select Combat Visor | Select Scan Visor | Select Thermal Visor | Select X-Ray Visor
(C Stick) Select Power Beam | Select Wave Beam | Select Ice Beam | Select Plasma Beam
(Z) Engage Morph Ball

Morphed:
(Control Stick) Move
(L) Spider Ball
(R) Bomb | Power Bomb
(A) Spring Ball
(B) Boost Ball
(Z) Disengage Morph Ball

I would change to story so that it would actually have flow and fit into the Metroid canon.

First off, welcome to the forums, Ether101 Prime!

And second off, it already does fit in the canon. Metroid (Zero Mission), Prime (Pinball), Hunters, Echoes, Corruption, Return, Super, Other M, Fusion.

One thing I'd change: I wouldn't have released Hunters until the 3DS came out. It could benefit from 3D graphics and using the tilt sensor to aim instead of the stylus.

All the characters/groups in the Prime Trilogy ooze incompetence to the point that there's noway galactic salivation could have survived. There's a scene in Echos where Samus shoots at the ****ing sky for no reason at all.

[ddddd]

And to think the fanbase has been looking for a definitive answer to the "canon or not" debate, and it was all the time on that scene!

She does so, She shoots the sky cause the Power beam is a gun, so there for, she was setting of a flare, to let people know she was being attacked, if there was anyone around. So yes, there is a reason, its not for no fucking reason at all.

Prime seems off better as a side story.

[Ridley11]

I'd rather in Prime 3 you were a bit more isolated.

[Toxsyl]

I wish Corruption had a more solid and better soundtrack. The Gandrayda, dark Samus, and Rundas themes are good, but alot of the environment sound tracks were bland to me.

[YamI]

But Metroid Prime 3 has the best songs in the series, behind Prime 2. How could you not love Omega Ridley? Hees soooo cuuute.

No I'm joking, seriosuly though, there is a Remix of the Ship in MZM for the Pirate homeworld.

[Toxsyl]

I found the sound track bland in Corruption.
Echoes had a couple good songs.

[HYRUL3]

The discussion about whether or not the Prime trilogy is canon is stupid. It is nowhere in the rest of the series directly contradicted.

Therefore there is no reason it can't exist.

Take it, haters.

Fix'd, I'm not a hater, I don't hate nothin' about the prime series.

[HYRUL3]

Oh. I didn't specifically mean you. Sorry about that. haha

[YamI]

No need for apologizing, I'm aware that you didn't mean me. Thanks anyways.

[Toxsyl]

I wish in Metroid Prime you could use a melee attack in first person.
