What are some remakes that completely replaces the original?

>>714664795 (OP)
An obvious one is the RE1 remake. Pretty much no reason to bother with the original.

Zero Mission. Fuck NEStroid, literally no one likes that game.

>>714665219
hmm, i usually like experiencing originals but since im not big on metroidvanias i guess ill play zero mission

Isn't Earthbound kind of a remake of Mother 1?

>>714664795 (OP)
Wait a minute, I don't remember Shulk or Melia ever wearing those outfits?

>>714665219
AM2R. It also replaces the shitty officlal remake Nintendo made for 3DS.

>tfw didn't use Melia in the Original game
>tfw had to learn how to use her on Future Connected

Gotta be honest with you bros, after playing Demon's Souls on PS5 I'm having a real tough time going back to the original.

>>714665943
Same lol. But to a lesser extent, when I was working on a 100% playthrough on the original Wii, I did learn some of her. I stopped around Mechonis because of other distractions.
But when DE dropped a few years later, I put 200 hours into it, doing FC first was worth it to be able to buy Level 12 Arts haha. Master Mode letting you adjust levels is so damn good, makes the whole thing 100x more enjoyable.

>>714665343
What's funny is they didn't even officially announce this during the Direct E3 presentation. It was during a separate presentation at Treehouse Live later in the day, that they were like "oh btw we have a new reveal!"
Idiots.

>>714665943
She is optional, Kino and Nene replace Reyin and Sharla so you can use them with Shulk if you want. I always liked to use Melia though.

>>714666473
Nintendo really don't give a fuck about Metroid do they

>>714667397
Why is that anyways? Prime was a huge seller back on the GameCube, it was seen as a main reason to get the system. Why did they stop caring about it?

>>714665943
Played the original twice and still only know how to use shulk/reyn/sharla.

>>714667468
Because Retro got sick of making Metroid, Dread was deemed impossible to create on DS, their attempt at a new console game with Other M was a complete fuck up, and whoever they had working on the original version of Prime 4 did such a shit job that they completely axed it.

>>714667862
ngl that new prime game looks like ass

>>714665943
>>714667524

Melia's problem is that AI is abysmal with her so you either main her or don't use her at all. That being said if you play her properly she kinda breaks the game, allowing you to fight much higher level enemies and take zero damage from most enemies due to her agi buffs.

>>714665219
baste

All remakes are shit. No exceptions.

>>714664795 (OP)
>remakes
That's a remaster, not a remake.

>>714672973
>No exceptions.
Except this.

>>714673075
It's an HD remake.

>>714673265
It's an HD remaster, retard.

>>714673397
They're literally called HD remakes moron.

>>714673512
They're literally called HD remasters moron.

>>714673537
People have called them HD remakes for years. You're not gonna gaslight me on this. I know what they're called.

>>714664795 (OP)
I've never played xenoblade, is that supposed to be shulk?

>>714664795 (OP)
I can't get into this game. I just kind of question around the starting area then drop the game for a year or two, rinse and repeat. I don't know why. I found WoW to be extremely engrossing and it's pretty similar gameplay-wise. Is this one of those "it gets good 20 hours in!" games?

>>714673682
>People have called them HD remakes for years
Yeah, other retards like you who don't know what they're talking about.
Remake = game is remade from the ground up (Silent Hill 2 remake, Resident Evil 2, 3 and 4 remakes, Dead Space remake etc)
Remaster = same game with better graphics (Xenoblade DE, New Super Mario Bros U, The Last of Us PS5 + PC remasters, etc)

>>714673758
Yes, who the fuck else would it be?

>>714673869
quest* not question

>>714673914
he looks pretty different despite the fact that it resembles him so I wasn't 100% sure

>>714664795 (OP)
>remake
they changed the textures
removed tree animations
fucked up porting the lighting
fucked up facial riggings with the new models (like ffx)
added new censorship on some outfits

its cool they made the cut bionis' left shoulder a post story thing, but as a port its not ideal

>>714666050
Then you're a faggot and don't belong on this board, demake is worse in every aspect

>>714673886
Everyone called them HD remakes back in the PS3 days when you were still shitting in your diaper. It doesn't matter that you all of a sudden now years later want to go around changing definitions.

>>714664795 (OP)
I only played the "original" Wii version. Based on screenshots I've seen of the "DE" version, it lost a lot of its originality in art.

>>714667468
Because Metroid was never big in Japan. It's sales always came from the US.
You know why Splatoon is always pushed so hard by Nintendo? Because it's fucking huge in Japan. It's akin to Pokemania 2.0 in Japan.

>>714673758
No, it's another blonde short-haired dude in red wielding the Monado.

>>714674358
>pretending to be an oldfag
Lmao pathetic.

>>714674438
>PS3
>oldfag
get a load of this zoomer

>>714673869
If the story doesn't hook you, then there's not really any reason for you to continue.

>>714674510
>t. zoomie

>>714674179
>added new censorship on some outfits
really?

>>714674179
>they made the cut bionis' left shoulder a post story thing
Damn, really? That takes me back, I remember watching videos on how to reach that area on the Wii. Maybe I'll pick it up then.

>>714674409
Bro let's not pretend that the western market doesn't matter to the Japanese.

>>714674939
Not as much as Japan.

>>714664795 (OP)
Nope, the original artstyle was better.

>>714674995
Yeah? Explain capcom.

>>714675032
That wasn't an artstyle, that was just the Wii being a potato.

>>714664795 (OP)

Not this one, that's for sure. The art style sucks and so does the epilogue shit. Honestly I don't think there's a single remake that can replace the original. The vast majority of them aren't even sidegrades.

>>714675062
They're not Nintendo, Capcom doesn't sell hardware

>>714675119
Art from adversity. Original Xenoblade looked unique, now they have the resources to do generic animu and it just doesn't look as good.

>>714675168
That's right, shift that goalpost. You know I'm right.

>>714675592
>shift that goalpost
Huh? We were talking about Nintendo retard. >>714667468

>>714675693
We were talking about software. You try and make it about hardware. Nice try.

>>714675941
The question was literally about why Nintendo doesn't care about Metroid. Cope.

>>714676084
And Metroid is software. You put yourself in checkmate.

>>714676154
Metroid and RE both appeal to westerners, but Nintendo has a wider pool of IPs. No shit Capcom goes harder on the western fans.

>>714674939
It's not about ignoring the western market, it's about prioritizing their home market and its preferences first and foremost.

>>714676659
Japan doesn't have children. Their market has no future.

>>714676703
>Japan doesn't have children
Neither do Gen Z Americans.

>>714676231
So the Japanese only care about their own market... except when they don't. Thanks for that insight.

>>714676938
>Japanese only care about their own market
Never said that retard.
