hey, anyone know the street value of this item as of late?
I only ask because I found mine recently after it having disappeared from my collection for a looong time. I'm not *planning* on selling it, but depending on how Fiscal Year 2012 runs, it might become an option. |

I'm not sure how much this helps, but maybe it's something to start on. These shops on YJA seem to be selling this new (actually, it looks like the same shop twice but...)
http://page14.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/j...ion/s248372824 (¥3360) http://page3.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/c307335398 (¥3058) Maybe that's a little strange because this is out of print in other shops, so maybe they don't really have it in stock? That seems weird for a YJA listing though. |

Those do seem like weird YJA listings to me too.
Anyone seen an eBay auction of this one lately? |

No, but it's selling brand new for about $55 on eBay and only for $40 at otaku.com, so I wouldn't expect your copy to go much over that.

Yeah, I just nabbed this sealed for around that price. I have to admit I'm kind of surprised by that considering it's age (almost 10 yrs) but at least I was able to add it to my collection.
I had heard the album years ago but after hearing it in game (I just played the game for the first time last month) it made a much larger statement. Not saying you can't appreciate it outside the scope of the game, but it really helped me for some reason - especially with the boss and Phazon Mines themes. |

Just snagged a couple of these “sealed and new”, considering their age, wondering if they are legit...are they officially still running reprints?

Nah, this soundtrack has just been in print that long and for whatever reason there's still plenty of stock left. I guess they overestimated how many would sell or something. I bought mine new from Amazon a couple years ago. Kirby 64, Smash 64, and Megami Tensei I & II are/were also like this.

How do they get away with calling a game Metroid Fusion and not giving it the sickest of jams.

The Nintendo Switch remaster has localized names for the tracks but it's not 1:1 to the official release, should we update the tracklist to reflect that?

Also, can anyone confirm, did they address the issue with VS. Flaahgra in the remaster? Didn't only the first part of the track play in certain versions of the game? I have the remaster but I haven't gotten to it since I wanted to get to Octopath II first since it was a new experience for me having played Prime on the cube. |

As someone who doesn't have Metroid Prime Remastered yet, would anyone be willing to list the track titles from the sound test here please?

Here you go:
Code:
Metroid Prime Titles Samus Arrives Pirate Frigate Parasite Queen Tallon Overworld Tallon Overworld Revisited Chozo Ruins Chozo Ruins Depths Hive Mecha Battle Flaahgra Battle 1 Magmoor Caverns Magmoor Caverns Entrance Phendrana Drifts Phendrana Secrets Phendrana Battle Thardus Crashed Ship Space Pirates Phazon Mines Battle 2 Omega Pirate Chozo Shrine Meta Ridley Metroid Prime Battle Metroid Prime (Core) Battle Credits Victory Samus Appears They look a bit rushed and roughly a third is missing compared to the album. But it's better than nothing! |

After playing the remaster of Resident Evil (aka Rebirth), ICO and Shadow of the Colossus on PS3, I wonder if this game's original GameCube release is also much better than said remaster.
Yeah I know I'm that old grumpy guy. I don't like remasters, no matter how many extras they throw at me. Licking up the resolution and cleaning the textures means nothing to me. |

For purists, it's always original hardware over remaster. I see remasters more as a way to preserve the games for younger generations since they don't have access to the older hardware.
Metroid Prime Remastered goes above and beyond what a "normal" remaster would do. They didn't just bump up the texture and rendering resolution but have an entirely new lighting engine, adjusted models and so much more. Yet there's certain things missing which the GameCube release had (such as Samus reflected in the Chozo Ruins mirror, the Fusion Suit). I wonder if the music was improved quality-wise in the remaster? |

I was wondering if they fixed the problem with the first boss theme in the game. Didn't some versions just keep repeating the same part over and over instead of playing the whole track?

Looks like they went back to their archives and upped the music's sampling rate to 48 kHz for the remaster. The boss track you mentioned is the extended version but then again I think that was the case for all versions but the first US release on GameCube.
Edit: It's pretty telling how much praise the remastered music gets when you compare it to remasters with re-arranged music or releases where the music's even just implied to be redone. Last edited by zierts; Mar 13, 2023 at 09:09 AM. |
