...their first Metroid game. 🌌
The environments in Fusion change throughout the game in much more radical ways than in other games in the series, making the gameplay less predictable and compensating for the linearity. 🌋
Some new gameplay mechanics have been added since Super Metroid. For instance, Samus is able to grab on to ledges, which would later become the Power Grip upgrade in Metroid: Zero Mission. In place of the...

I will simulate today's final of the men's #soccer World Cup 2026 between #Spain and #Argentina as a CPU vs CPU match in FIFA: Road to World Cup 98 on PS1. ⚽
Match takes place in Rose Bowl stadium in California, US. 🏟️
Spain with stars like Luis Enrique and Raúl is the stronger team in the game. Can the Argentinian star ensemble led by Batistuta and Simeone keep up? 🇪🇸🇦🇷
Match starts in 30 min, this thread being a live ticker. 🔊

...Grapple Beam, Samus can now climb special ladders and bars to span large heights and gaps. 🪜
Owners of both Prime and Fusion can unlock new features in Prime using the GameCube GBA Cable. If the player completes Prime, Samus' Fusion Suit can be unlocked in Prime. Completing Fusion unlocks an emulated version of the original Metroid game. 👾
A sequel, Metroid Dread, was released for Switch in 2021, 19 years after Fusion. 🎮

Having introduced the character in Super Mario World, Nintendo decided to develop SMW 2: Yoshi's Island starring Yoshi, with the aim of making it more accessible. ⛰️
Partway into the development of Yoshi's Island, Donkey Kong Country was released, resulting in its computer-generated graphics becoming the norm for SNES games. It was too late for the designers to incorporate such a style into Yoshi's Island. Instead, they pushed the hand-drawn style further. 🎨

✔️ Mortal Kombat (SNES)
🥇 @picandocodigo@mastodon.online
💡 While the SNES version's visuals and audio of Mortal Kombat were more arcade accurate than those of the Genesis version, it has less precise controls and due to Nintendo's "family friendly" policies, replaces the blood with sweat and most of the Fatalities with less violent "finishing moves".

💡 The Design for the Nemesis was originally a rejected design for the Tyrant 02, better known as Mr. X, in Resident Evil 2.

...film's production crew and assets, and some of the graphics use scanned copies of their movie equivalents, but there are many inconsistencies with what the film would portray.
Because the game didn't have a finished film to work from, it is heavily inspired by the 1990 novel the film is based on. 📗
Many of the dinosaur animations, sounds and behaviors are based on birds, recommended by a paleontologist consulting on the film. 🦅

✔️ Tekken 3 (PS1) - Taekwondo Dojo (Hwoarang's stage)
🥇 @pedro_mateus@mas.to
💡 During the Tekken 3 era, Hwoarang was known by the pseudonym 'BoB', allegedly because western gamers had difficulty in writing his name correctly. It is possible that the pseudonym was derived from a pre-release Tekken 3 art where he is seen on a motorcycle. As no name was available, he became known simply as Boy on Bike.

✔️ Grand Theft Auto III (PS2)
🥇 @prokyonid@mastodon.sdf.org
💡 For the radio stations in GTA III, Rockstar greatly increased the use of licensed tracks, unlike what the company used for previous games in the series. However, the soundtrack still relies to a large degree in original creations, unlike what they would do in their next game, GTA Vice City.

Turok: Dinosaur Hunter is a first-person shooter video game released in 1997 for the Nintendo 64 and PC as an adaptation of a comic book series of the same name. 🦖
The developers had to push the Nintendo 64's graphics capabilities to its limits, and were forced to compress or cut elements to fit the game on its 8 MB cartridge. ⬇️
At the time, publisher Acclaim Entertainment was in financial jeopardy. The company was a major publisher...

Yeah, with the hardware becoming more and more powerful everything was about the graphics becoming more realistic than artistic.

I was used to play Game Boy games at this time and I never got my hands on an SNES as a kid, but I remember seeing screenshots of the game in the official Nintendo magazine, imagining how marvelous it must be to play this game.

Definitely. It can compete with Donkey Kong Country, which also still looks beautiful.

The tricky thing is, while this sound is quite iconic for this game, it not really represents the game or genre.

For me the DKC titles aged well, too. Visually they may not be as impressive as other titles but compensate this by their platformer mechanics.

It really is a very famous title from a even more famous franchise, everybody here knows. It can even be considered a classic or milestone in gaming history.

What are your favorite platformers then?
I also like the later Rayman 2D platformers. Rayman Origins on PS3 was a blast.
