Metroid Prime 4 Beyond<\/a> is more mature than your average Nintendo-published first-party game. So players were expecting some violence, sci-fi monsters, and guns. What they might not have been expecting was for so many of the puzzle game\u2019s doors to look like, umm, well\u2026<\/p>\n

As with past Metroid games from Nintendo, a lot of Prime 4\u2018<\/a>s presentation is inspired by H.R. Giger\u2019s designs from the classic sci-fi movie Alien. This is especially evident in Metroid Prime 4\u2018s first large level, Volt Forge<\/a>, which contains a lot of Giger-esque architecture and environmental details. But other parts of Prime 4, like the famous artist, seem inspired by other parts of human anatomy, like vaginas. What I\u2019m trying to say is there are a lot of doors in this game that might make your more prudish grandparents uncomfortable.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cLotta vaginas in this game,\u201d bluntly, but accurately, declared critic Aidan Moher on Bluesky<\/a>. And he\u2019s right! In the early portions of Prime 4\u2018s campaign, you\u2019ll encounter a few different doors that seem inspired by vulvas.\u00a0 Fans online are now sharing screenshots of doors that look very vaginal online.\u00a0 Some are large, and some are small. One of these doors<\/a> even popped up on a subreddit dedicated to highlighting objects and locations that look a bit like vaginas.<\/p>\n

Why is all the discourse on Metroid Prime 4 about Miles and not how all the doors are extremely vaginal? Just curious. pic.twitter.com\/rLRXbypR92<\/a><\/p>\n

Metroid Prime 4 empieza con Samus despert\u00e1ndose frente a una vagina gigante y teniendo que disparar al cl\u00edtoris para abrir las compuertas.<\/p>\n

Nadie entiende esta franquicia mejor que Retro Studios.<\/p>\n

Also the yonic imagery is pretty interesting.
Almost like an inverse of Alien’s whole thing, which is cool to me since Metroid does take inspiration from that series + Samus’ whole thing pic.twitter.com\/bPrJvK7XJh<\/a><\/p>\n

There are even some doors that feature small bumps at the top that Samus must pull down using her psychic powers to open them.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s all pretty hard to unsee once it\u2019s been pointed out to you. And honestly, I think most people will pick up on the vagina doors without any help. I\u2019d pay a lot of money to be in the boardroom with some stuffy Nintendo execs if they are ever sat down and told why, suddenly, vagina door and Prime 4 are trending on social media and Reddit.<\/p>\n
