Turkey Posted July 17, 2002 Share Posted July 17, 2002 Thats right. Nintendo just made it official. Just as they had the special Captain Olimar trophy in Smash Brothers Melee, you will soon be able to unlock 2 more trophies. [IMG]http://cubemedia.ign.com/cube/image/smash_newsamustrophy0715.jpg[/IMG] As you can see, the famous bounty hunter Samus Aran has been given a fourth trophy, and this one has no helmet. Unlockable with a Metroid Prime save. [IMG]http://cubemedia.ign.com/cube/image/smash_newmariotrophy0715.jpg[/IMG] Recalling one of his most glorious moments, Cape Mario once again mounts Yoshi for this beautiful trophy. Unlockable with a Mario Sunshine save. Looking at this nice surprise, I wonder about 2 things: Which other game will feature new trophies? And when the hell will we see Samus' trophy from the front?

Juu Posted July 17, 2002 Share Posted July 17, 2002 Wow, more trophies.... I just got my GC, and don't have a memory card yet, so.. I don't have any trophies each time...T.T well, anyways, that's KEWL! but, I wouldn't get a whole new game just for those two trophies..lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desbreko Posted July 17, 2002 Share Posted July 17, 2002 [color=indigo]I just [i]knew[/i] that 290 just wasn't right... I mean, really, 290? Why couldn't they have gone all the way to 300? ...That's what I had been asking myself ever since I got the game, and I may finally be getting an answer! If there are more unlockable trophies like these two new ones, then I may get my wish of 300 afterall. :) Samus has brown hair, though, not blonde! :mad: Just take a look at this screen shot from the original Metroid: [img]http://www.desbreko.netfirms.com/Misc/Samus-NoSuit.jpg[/img][/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semjaza Posted July 17, 2002 Share Posted July 17, 2002 It depends on the game. Samus is blonde in Super Metroid. The same with Metriod Fusion. You see this at the end if you do well in SM, and also when you die in both games. Samus probably only has brown hair in Metroid do to color limitations. Each sprite on the NES is only allowed so many colors, which must also fit into how many the NES can show at once. I swear in my copy of Metroid she has green hair...but I haven't played it in like 5 years :D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saiya-jinro Posted July 17, 2002 Share Posted July 17, 2002 Both of the trophies look ace. I like the Mario one more though. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninjaman Posted July 18, 2002 Share Posted July 18, 2002 Aw man, I haven't gotten all the trophies as it is and I have more to get? Oh well, I was planning on playing those two games anyway(big "duh" in head). Anyway those trophies look cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With brown hair! I dunno, I guess I just like brown hair better than blonde on her. But anyway, the new trophies do look cool, and I'll be getting them since I'm getting both Super Mario Sunshine and Metroid Prime.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vicious Posted July 21, 2002 Share Posted July 21, 2002 [COLOR=darkred]::Smiles:: Ah! Some new trophies have arrived. I managed to get all except for 3 or 4. ON eo f them being Captain Olimar. I have not even played Pikmin yet. But I will, I will! As for the hair issue, I just can't remember the last time I beat it. I have played it alot lately. But I haven't beaten it in a while. It just isn't as involving as it was when I first played it 4 or 5 years back.[/COLOR] :smirk: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sensei-San Posted July 21, 2002 Share Posted July 21, 2002 Alright! Some more Trophies! SSMBM gets more interesting by the day. I just got my 280th one last night. Maybe this is something to tell my grandchildren. As for Samus Aran's hair colour, it is officially brown, like Desbreko said. I remember it this way from my copies of the Super Metroid series, but we'll see what Metroid Fusion (the GBA release) has in store for us. Semjaza, are you ok man?

Defcon5 Posted August 1, 2002 Share Posted August 1, 2002 I would imagine that they would have a Cel Chaded Link one. And I Fox McCloud one from his new game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semjaza Posted August 1, 2002 Share Posted August 1, 2002 Watch the Metroid Fusion video... when the weird looking Samus dies, you can clearly see it's the same as in Super Metroid - a blonde Samus. In the actual game, when Samus' suit is destroyed, you can see her in a swimsuit wrapped in a ball. Looks blonde to me :). I can't seem to find a shot of that though. The best ending in Super Metroid seems to suggest brown hair though, although it's a LOT lighter than on the NES shot you showed. And this is why I said Samus has green hair in my copy: [img]http://www.classicgaming.com/mdb/m1/samcol2.gif[/img] There was a repackaging of Metroid later on in the NES' life cycle. It's possible they changed the color later on. But in mine (which I know is from the first batches, the cover is different), she has very green hair. I have NO idea why though. So either way, they changed it anyway lol. I think she looks better blonde personally. In the comics it was pink... So either she dyes her hair constantly, or no one can agree on what it should be :D. [img]http://www.classicgaming.com/mdb/sm/nms15.jpg[/img] Weird looking picture I found.

Desbreko Posted August 1, 2002 Share Posted August 1, 2002 [color=indigo]Were you, perhaps, using the Justin Bailey password, on the original Metroid? I went and tried using that, and she had green hair. I think maybe she has green hair when you use that.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semjaza Posted August 1, 2002 Share Posted August 1, 2002 Yeah, that must have been it. I'm not sure why Nintendo insists on changing it so much. Anyway, a SMS save does not unlock the new Mario trophy in Japan. It sounds like it is unlocked somehow at Toys R Us, kind of like how Mew was added to Pokemon Red and Blue later. That was mainly a Japan only thing though, so maybe they will do it another way here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
