- "Parasite" Metroid Fusion commercial that differs from the version that aired on television in 2002. This cut features additional shots and a different musical arrangement and voiceover, with less in-game footage and no rating. This was recently shared in high quality by the director, Bruce Hunt. A brand new interview with him can be found on our website: shinesparkers....

Directed by Bruce Hunt
I genuinely cant believe what I'm seeing, never in my life did I expect to see this in perfect quality. Also, the detail of the Varia suit wrinkling and the left glove on the Fusion suit is the funniest thing I've ever seen.
Bruh why is her left hand so small 💀
@@Silencersix I think it's an optical illusion, it just looks small compared to the beam cannon on the right side.
But I mean come on it goes so fast you can't even see it 🤣
Wdym
@@psychoapplesauceeater8562 Splitting-second frame of that "comparison" as they called it.
It’s crazy that this exists in hd
Why?
@@youdontseeanoldmanhavinatw4904 Because it didn't exist back then.
It's pretty cool what we can do now. Especially with Ai upscaling. I use Topaz to do stuff like this all the time.
@@Rith9789 oh was this ai upscaled?
@@youdontseeanoldmanhavinatw4904 bro.
I remember this. I was watching Spider-Man on Fox Kids at my Uncle’s house when it hit an ad-break then this trailer came on and blew me away to the point where I practically annoyed everyone in my family about Metroid Fusion and got it for Christmas 2002… I was 9 and thus began my journey into Metroid.
Somehow I’ve never seen this commercial, and yet it’s one of my favorite Metroid games.
Me neither
I never saw it either. Probably why Metroid games never got good sales because it was never marketed well. It sad because this commercial goes hard.
My dad took us to Curcuit City once and I just happened to have enough money in my pocket to purchase it. It was a good time because I recently broke my wrist and couldn't participate in PE so I just sat in the bleachers and played the hell out of this game.
@@SocialRebellion That’s awesome. Not that you broke your wrist, but that you were able to chill and play it. 😆
I remember seeing it, especially during cartoon cartoon Fridays on Cartoon Network.
Knowing Nintendo and their advertisements for games that ARENT Mario games....Im sure they aired this AT launch and maybe 3 weeks afterwards
So, I KNEW about Metroid at that point in my childhood, but it never had my attention.
This commercial, THIS COMMERCIAL... got my attention.
Metroid Fusion is one of my favorite games of all time, and I still break out my GBA every now and then and replay it.
I love how cheap yet detailed the Fusion suit is in this. Its my favorite next to Dread's suit design, and its a shame more people haven't done cosplays of it.
My fave is phason then dread (all suits) then fusion power
Fusion suit is awesome but Dreads base suit has to be my least favourite. The neck of the helmet is pencil thin. Looks demented.
@@swansong5960 Honestly I prefer the neck on that out of all of them.
@@nikolasperez7745
It looks like one good nock and it'll snap off though. Different strokes for different folks I guess.
My fav is either Echoes Dark Suit or Samus Returns Gravity Suit but the Fusion suit is so good, especially when Mercury Steam put their touches on it.
Love these classic metroid commercials. Live action cheese but still awesome.
"Live action"
It's full CGI...
@Sabrak is it? I thought the old metroid commercials used a combination of costumes and stop motion. Obviously the monsters are CG.
@@sabrakt no it's not, some of it is but like the actors in the suits and the sets are legit
Yeah, the last scene made me want a Metroid tokusatsu lmao
Man, this along with the OG Resident Evil 2 live action trailer and the 1990s Fire Emblem commericials were the shit
Can I just say that this commercial is awesome? Really captures the intensity of the game.
Man, i do miss ads like that! Bring 'em back any time, internet.
Short, corny, perfect.
マジでこのCMをこの画質で見れるの奇跡だろ。ありがすぎる。
GBA had some incredible commercials back in the day. Nintendo loved using that deep, ominous voice haha
I'm so glad stuff like this can actually look this good even 20 years later. It looks like it was produced in the last 10 years and not upscaled or anything like that for a commercial from the 2000s
If it wasn’t for this ad, I would’ve never played this game as a kid. Still got my original copy from 2002!
Look how you see SA-X draw in the reflection, but Samus is still faster
Brings a tear to the eye
Man imagine acquiring those costumes for the Metroid Museum! I would be so stoked. Awesome commercial.
Probably the best live-action adaptation of Metroid we'll ever get in our lifetime.
This commercial makes me really curious of what it’d be like if Metroid Fusion was remade in a Metroid Prime format.
Thanks for uploading this. Having this commercial in HD here really showcases how much of a love letter this commercial was for the metroid series. You can really see the attention to detail they have here.
Back when we had that ominous voice hyping up our game ads. Now we have a spokesperson representing every major game that gets released, and every damn one of them has that creepy ass corporate smile with no soul eyes. Everyone's always smiling while everything's burning around them.
I never noticed that the SA-X costume is the same one from the Metroid Prime Commercial
Oh man, I LOVED this commercial when I was a kid. I so wanted a cheesy live action Power Rangers or Beetleborg-esque Metroid show that looked exactly like this after I saw it.
Omg I remember this ad. I watched it in 2002 on Cartoon Network. I always loved Metroid and I played Super Metroid so many times as a kid, this was just like a dream to watch something live actions.
Hands up for a Fusion remake!
Yesssss!!
Why? Super and Fusion don't really need it. I'm not saying I'd be against it, but it isn't necessary.
Nah. Fusion is already great as is. Better to spend more time making new games than rereleasing old ones
@@sion8 honestly, fusion? it really does need something.
There is, on my estimation, probably around 3 hours of unskippable dialogue in the game.
You cannot progress to the next area wothout passing through a navigation room, at which point the doors are locked and you can't get out until you've been thoroughly navigated by Adam. This creates so much stopping and starting.
Ok, this is a byproduct of story, right? First metroid with dialogue. Just make it skippable. Summarise in short paragraphs, please just make it faster.
Simply starting a new save file on metroid fusion means you're going to have to sit, constantly tapping A, through like 10/15 minutes of unskippable cutscene.
Not that fun on your 2nd playthrough, torture on your 5th.
The game is amazing and i love it, but i would give anything for a mod or remaster/remake that could make it faster.
Mercury Steam was supposedly developing the Metroid Fusion remake, before changing plans to later develop Metroid Dread, so we may see that one day
Metroid Fusion was my first Metroid game. Its still my fav to this day followed by Prime, Dread and Super
Back when we had epic commercials. God I miss awesome marketing
Unironically badass
I literally only saw this commercial once late on Cartoon Network. I had completely forgotten about it!
I watched soo much tv as a child and never saw this commercial until now. Crazy how prices have skyrocketed.
Love how this amazing game introduced so many people into Metroid, even though it was originally the last in the overarching story's chronology (until Dread in 2021) 💀
WOW ! For the first time ever....we can see lines and textures! I Never forgot this commercial !!!!111 I'm crying ; _ ;
The production value on this is off the charts.
I haven't seen it look this good since it first aired. All the rips before the director's cut were 240P AT BEST and the sound was compressed. Thanks for uploading.
It's insane that a commercial for made in 2002 looks incredible today.
It’s crazy seeing the BSL for the first time in HD (no I am not counting the intro of Dread)
Wow. Brings back memories.
Recuerdo que en la MTV de los 2000's pasaban los comerciales de varios juegos de Gameboy Advance y este en particular me impacto totalmente. Fue mi primer acercamiento a la saga de Metroid . yo estaba en la secu en ese entonces y mi pequeño cerebro adolescente exolotó al jugarlo. Bella epoca de los cartuchos y juegos portatiles.
I remember seeing this trailer back in the day and being in awe about the production qualities and design for it's time. The suits of X and Samus looking pretty good for what they are.
It’s funny how this and the trailer for Prime are the only bits of live action Metroid media with power suits of some kind to ever be released. We need a live action R rated Metroid movie
These are awesome commercials can we have more of this
I haven't seen this commercial in over 20 years, thank you
I love this one and the one for Prime... I miss these types of ads!
I have never seen or knew of its existence of the commercial before today. I remember the one for Metroid Prime, but not this?
THIS IS INCREDIBLE, AND SHOULD BE THE STANDARD FOR ALL GAMING ADS GOING FORWARD.
The 2000’s were the BEST time to be a kid. Change my mind.
Wow I haven't seen this commercial in so long. Thanks!
One of the best Commercial ever most be wow thnxs and rare one too!
This is a really good job at selling the game idea.
You go really strong but you encounter your evil shadow and grow terrified of what it's become.
why is this the coolest commercial ever made
Wow! Always cool to see cut content
It’s insane there’s so many details to Metroid Prime like the Varia Suit and the hallway scene
Can't believe this was actually restored in HD, lol
Ok now I want a live action movie. Damn. An origin story with Samus chozo upbringing and subsequent early battles with the space pirates.
What makes this even better is that fusion is coming to NSO expansion pack NEXT WEEK
Never thought I'd see this in higher resolution! Thanks!
The early 00’s baby
A timeless classic…
Fun Fact: From what I’m seeing of this commercial, it looks like they’re reusing parts of the Metroid Prime commercial’s Varia Suit, things such as the helmet having the same shape, and the chest lights having the same LED glow that were present on that same suit.
That was wild! I miss when ads were This cool!
I remember seeing this super late at night on adult swim and then using a VHS player to record it off the TV. See folks you got to remember back then CZcams had yet to exist and finding videos online was much more challenging.
We want / need a Metroid movie......
Holy shit... I have never, in my life, seen this commercial. And it looked so fuckin awesome!
I saw this commercial before many times, but never in this high quality. The dialogue also reminds me heavily of the one from Prime 2.
"Where the difference between life and death is a few inches of metal."
What the hell have I been missing out on?! This is freaking AWESOME!
Never saw this before , I bought Metroid Fusion as a blind buy hadn’t even heard of Metroid back then, good pick
It would've been killer If Nintendo upscaled the OG prime live action commercial and mixed in with new game play and used it as the remastered release trailer. I seriously miss commercials like these for any game.
That commercial brings back memories. That makes me ask who’s the blue person? And is Samus possessed? Got a love the mysteries before Internet was a thing.
The blue person is Samus and the Samus in the Varia Suit is an evil clone of her made after the X Parasite infected the outer shell of her suit.
Fusion is probably one of the most out their games in the series besides Dread and I love it.
@@nikolasperez7745 I know that now. I’m just saying those thoughts were in my head before I played the game 20 years ago.
wow in good quality and not fuzzy as shit. cant beleive they still had this somewhere
I never saw this commercial before. Holy shit its amazing.
Now I really want to play Metroid Fusion again.
I pre-ordered this game and picked it up the day it was released, and 22 years after beating the shit out of it I still have my original save.
*GETTING FUSION GET YOU STRENGTH*
I wanted a live action Metroid movie for so long now
I like how it says "And then you grow scared" even tho Samus clearly ain't even flinching at SA-X and just gets to blasting haha
So perfect!
just casually droping an HD version of the comercial
Holy shit, I remember watching this and it absolutely blowing my mind.
Had this game back on the Nintendo SP. I can’t believe I threw these games out after I got the ps3 and 360.
I was just thinking about this commercial. It’s crazy that they made 2 whole ass Suits for a really short commercial
I need a whole action movie like this
This is incredible
I miss when practical effects were used more heavily in commercials and movies!
Huh, seems they used Burton's Planet of the Apes score as a placeholder. Honestly fits, just didn't expect to hear it here of all places
I want a metroid movie. This would be so awesome
For once, YT recommendations are on point recommending me this within a few hours of upload lol
I wish Echoes and Corruption had an ad like this. For Echoes they even had a tag line I think, it was something like "to protect the light, sometimes you have to embrace the dark" or I dreamt that or something.
Duuuuuuuuuuude this commercialllllll!!! Thank ypuuuu! This is epic, I remember when i watched so many years ago!
What the hell !?
There is a huge problem of not publishing gold adds like this worldwide.
Yo they went all out with this commercial. SA-X looks exactly like Prime 1 Varia suit. Glowy bits n all.
we need more Metroid ads
I miss these old live action ads so much.
It’s interesting that the SA-X’s model appears to be based off Metroid Prime’s version of the Varia suit.
EDIT: Wait, aren’t those flying bugs War Wasps?
The SA-X suit was reused from the Metroid Prime commercial shot by the same crew.
I still have the gba copy of fusion. In fact, i last played it while i was deployed in the middle east a few years ago. Best gameboy game ever
Wow. Thats amazing
A lot of effort put into an awesome commercial.
This ad is so damn cool!
Excellent.
I have never seen this in HD before.
What the hell? Am I dreamin here??? This is awesome!!
Can't believe I've never seen this...
