Super Metroid is about as flawless as a llama wearing a top hat on its dong.

Zero-Seven. Hehe. ^.^

I'm not sure what to call it, it's kinda a mixture between a few things. But it was pointless none-the-less.

Was that comment about super directed good or bad at my part? >_>

So your saying Super Metroid isn't flawless? :P

Ofcourse, it isn't perfectly flawless, but there aren't too many things they can do to make it better.

Besides making the physics not suck ass, item selection not be a pain, music not be boring save for two songs, taking away Ridley's beard, making the game actually hard in any way save the second Ridley.... Yeah, you're right. >_>

Whatever, I think Super Metroid is great the way it is.

And Ridley has a beard because he is actually Osama in disguise. >_>

With no fear of everyone beating me up for saying this, Prime will never replace what Metroid started as and what I believe it should continue to be. Metroid has always been a platformer maze with chances of getting lost every five minutes. Prime was infact a FPS maze with the same chances, but for some reason I can't say it was my favorite (Though I did like the look into the Chozo history and the whole Phazon thing). Overall I liked Prime but it's not my favorite.

Super Metroid will always be my favorite Metroid game because it was huge, the upgrades rocked, the difficulty was intense, and the minibosses ruled. Oh yeah and the graphics were cool too for it's time and hell it beats Fusion or Zero Mission any day.

I agree, I think Super Metroid has a special feeling that both MP and MP2 lacks. It has a connection to Metroid and Metroid 2 and the story feels like it's based on the two first games. MP and MP2 dosen't really feel like they have anything to do with the other games exept they are feauturing the same characters. Don't get me wrong, I thing MP and MP2 are great games but they donīt really have that "Metroid"-feeling.

Super Metroid is simply, in my opinion, the best Metroid game.

Super Metroid for the 2d series. Metroid Prime for the 3d series (so far...)
Why Gameboy / Gameboy color games don't work on the DS
 
[size0]Look at the back of a gameboy advance catridge, and look at the back of a gameboy or gameboy color cartidge. On the GBA catrige you should see two "notches" (or whatever you call them) on both sides, that aren't on the GB/GB color catridges. Now, look inside the GBA game slot on the DS, and you should see two parts sticking out, where the "notches" fit into. The GB/GB color games won't fit because they don't have the notches.

I love Super Metroid. Best Game Ever.
"Sometimes when I feel like killing someone, I do a little trick to calm myself down. I'll go over to the persons house and ring the doorbell. When the person comes to the door, I'm gone, but you know what I've left on the porch? A jack-o-lantern with a knife stuck in the side of it's head with a note that says "You." After that I usually feel a lot better, and no harm done."

I prefer Metroid Prime 2 Echoes BECAUSE everything was deadlike. It's no fun when everything's so happyish. There's not enough OMFG I'm going to die in the next room, and there's no HOLY COW I SURVIVED YAY in Prime.
In terms of 2d, I enjoyed Super Metroid more than anything else...Metroid1 is nigh-impossible for me, and Metroid2...is also nigh-impossible for me. Though it was very original.
Fusion was fun, difficult, but the stupid computer couldn't be turned off. I WANT AN OFF SWITCH FOR ADAM! He talks too much. Zero-Mission was so fun, cause I sequence breaked at least 4 times on my first run...but after a while killing sprees just don't appeal to me anymore.
I've played all of the Metroid games so far, and i really do like Echoes more than anything else.

Hey, it didnt let me vote!? What!?

Oh well ...

Anyways, I know alot of this has probly been said already, but whatever.

Metroid Prime Echoes had that feeling, as stated in the above post, HOLY SHIZA I am gonna get RIPPED APPART. Most everything was aggresive and wanted to eat your brains. Also, the graphics were awesome, the AI was pretty good and the atmosphere was scary. BUT ... But ... the story sucked. I thought it was absolutly retarded. And Dark Samus? What? Lets cause meaningless damage and shoot at stuff pointlessly and charge up with phazon and ... how did phazon get there anyways? What was the purpose behind that? Nonsense.

Moving on. Metroid Prime was great. Like Daz stated earlier on in this topic, it had something. This weird feeling you get when you play it. It looked into the Chozo civilization, gave insite into the pirate ways, and had a crap load of insite about metroids. The whole fact that the last big bad boss of the game was a metroid itself was cool. As for 3d Metroids .. Prime 1 was my fav.

For an all time favorite I am gonna have to go with Fusion.
Absolute best. Scared the freakin crap out of me.
I remember sitting on my couch in the living room at night, the only light coming from my GBSP, nobody around, headphones on, windows dark ... and being so scared I wanted to run and hide. Nothing has captured that feeling like Fusion did. It was awesome. I wish they would make a 3d version of it.

I still have to go with my vote on super metroid because of the idea that there are no Quest or people tell ing you where to go you roam around do what you want really.
