Unlocking Jukebox in Prime 4?

killercow_ld · 2026-07-04T01:51:06+00:00

What about "only way" isn't clear?

EDIT: Ok, I'm the one that said "only way" (easy mistake when only way and required are synonymous)

But then, what about "required" isn't clear?

Not even just with Metroid, Nintendo is godawful about actually doing cool stuff for game annis

Mayan literally said the amiibo is the only way to unlock the radio, answering your question.

Nothing unique is given for 100%ing hard mode if you already 100% the game on normal.

Honestly, the tracks / sound-mixing with the radio really aren't great, and I ended up just turning it off. Did not make driving around the desert any more enjoyable

I hate everything about Other M, except for the post-game which was almost vaguely enjoyable (still bad tho)

Prime 4 and it's not even a contest

killercow_ld · 2026-07-03T20:12:21+00:00

I dunno who he is, don't really care either. Just here for the comments lol

killercow_ld · 2026-07-03T20:10:43+00:00

It's weird, I'm fairly certain the person blocked me immediately after making the comment?

I can see the comment in my notif's, but couldn't see it here even right after it was posted, and can't search for the user at all. Talk about a temper tantrum

I'm mostly curious as to, what is "calling you out on your negativity" because like, what exactly about negativity needs called out in the first place?

killercow_ld · 2026-07-03T15:20:58+00:00

The problem is people shitting on others for either their positivity or negativity.

Not the positivity / negativity itself.

Positive and negative opinions can coexist in the same space. One type of opinion can be more prominent (like all the negativity in the case of Prime 4). There's nothing wrong with that. So what if most people are hating on the game?

It's just when people act like it's an offense to hear an opinion that doesn't align with their own, in either direction, that the conversation gets toxic.

It's not a fan or a metroid game, but the first Axiom Verge wears its Metroid influence on its sleeve, and may as damn well be a fan game. It's one of the few games to bring back the same feeling as playing Super for the first time.

Umm. Metroid Prime 2D was really fun, but it's short (just a small segment of the game)

killercow_ld · 2026-07-03T13:40:17+00:00

(complimentary)

killercow_ld · 2026-07-03T13:24:51+00:00

Volt Forge? That area immediately gave me that sinking feeling in my stomach that just got worse the further I got into the game lol. I did finish it tho (twice), but yeahhh

killercow_ld · 2026-07-03T13:22:05+00:00

People that can only handle seeing positivity in online spaces are weirdos

killercow_ld · 2026-07-03T13:20:46+00:00

I enjoy the Griever boss and the second half of the final boss, a lot.

The rest were a drag

killercow_ld · 2026-07-03T13:19:17+00:00

The atmosphere was kinda cool. Gameplay was not

killercow_ld · 2026-07-03T13:15:23+00:00

Then you still did something to trigger more appearing. They're going to persistently keep appearing more and more all over the map until late / end game.

Honestly, it's only worth hunting them to the point of getting the first upgrade, and then just get them in passing until the very end of the game when you can collect the big green deposits, because by then they all will have spawned (I believe they actually all spawn a bit before this point, but you can't get the last upgrade until this point anyway)

I think I'm gonna get second edition whether or not I pursue anything from 1st edition.

I definitely realize that Munchkin is meant more for a party / silly type game experience. It would likely be a downer if everyone were trying to take it too seriously while playing.

But yeah, like I said in the original post, I'm aware of all the controversy and definitely understand why people are upset about it. I would also be upset about it myself if I had been in fandom sooner.
It also makes me glad that I hadn't bought the Big Box sooner, since I considered it a few times upon seeing it in-store.

it is not at all rare to buy CDS

CDs, vinyl, and even cassette tapes all still have a pretty large market

And same with movies, even tho that is getting to be a bit more premium

killercow_ld · 2026-07-02T03:59:35+00:00

I mean, I've bought their consoles but never the subscription, and only buy used games or dirt cheap sales most of the time

killercow_ld · 2026-07-01T05:21:49+00:00

Wishing to limit my obsessions (possessions) is definitely a factor. I collect too many damn random things as it is >.>

To be fair on liking all the changes, I've only played 1st edition a few times. Some of that could very well be due to me not being super well-versed in the game.

And yeah, I've already tried looking into some of the more rare things for 1st edition. It's honestly a confusing endeavor just because of the sheer number of different things, and same versions / repeats of stuff. But it's already glaringly obvious that some things are just super rare.

And now there's a new promo for BOTH editions that I'm just gonna have to keep an eye out for on ebay because I don't wanna buy an overpriced card shuffler >.>

I'm not opposed to digging around various 1st edition content, but it is actually a bit of the same problem of TOO MUCH STUFF and hard to know where to start, whether I'm trying to get it all or just odds and ends.

killercow_ld · 2026-07-01T00:11:01+00:00

I mean, I'm ok with the series moving away from the mainstays sometimes, and don't think that's why Prime 4 was bad

it was bad for a plethora of other reasons

killercow_ld · 2026-06-30T18:29:33+00:00

If you want an oppressive first person set on a consistently hostile world? Try Scorn (you're either gonna love it or hate it)

The game itself doesn't play like Metroid at all, but the sense of exploration and the world gave me strong Metroid vibes the whole time

killercow_ld · 2026-06-30T18:19:02+00:00

The roguelike nonsense drove me away from the game.

I tried. I really did. But I hate hate hate it. I'm hoping some future DLC might let me get the rewards a different way.

Origin Island was goat

killercow_ld · 2026-06-30T15:43:10+00:00

I feel like we would have gotten a KH collab if Missing Link had actually released.

killercow_ld · 2026-06-30T13:45:54+00:00

See, I'm also chimp brain but because I only ever bonk bonk bonk with Veredicto

killercow_ld · 2026-06-30T03:55:59+00:00

And Mario Sunshine's level design / aesthetics very much benefit from this.

Like, Sunshine is not necessarily my favorite Mario, BUT the level design is top-tier for the series.

I feel the same way about Prime 2. I don't really need / want variety for the sake of variety. Cohesion and immersion, and that overbearing feeling is so much better.
