Oh, we're ranking now? Zero Mission has the best controls and the best victory lap Fusion has the best bosses and is the easiest to set down and come back to without being lost Samus Returns is the best looking and has the most engaging combat and Super is still a competitor to currently released games 25+ years later. Then you have the Primes, a textbook worthy example of how to translate a 2D game into 3D and retain the feel of the originals. The Metroid series has never had a completely irredeemable game. Even as flawed as Other M is, if you ignore the story the game play is pretty fun.

Explopyro posted:I honestly think my favourite 2D Metroid is AM2R (yes, the fangame one), but Fusion is a solid experience. AM2R had a couple spots I didn't care for, but it was really good. Had that game had different, non copyright infringing art work and advertised itself as a "Spiritual Remake" of Metroid 2, it could have easily sold thousands of copies. I wouldn't have been disappointed had I paid money for it.

Explopyro posted:Your reactions had me grinning through the entire Serris fight, it's wonderful. The suit upgrades are really solid levels of damage reduction. Combined with almost every enemy dropping health, you don't really notice how much you're taking until you face off with a boss that's actually a threat (Core Xs don't count there)

Quackles posted:Another tip: You don't need to hold B (or anything else other than the D-pad) to run in this game. The Speed Booster just kicks in automatically. Does that make Samus the Imposter? She's doing an awful lot of killing and loves vents for getting around...

C-Euro posted:It was bugging me so I dug out my SP to confirm, and yeah it's a pillar (which can also be triggered by a couple of mid/late-game upgrades!). I'm not the only one who found their old SP!! First gen with original battery. The front light on this thing is so much worse than I remember it being.

Oh Yakuza, you have the BEST RNG. There's still one more boss I can't wait to see.

I've been waiting for Nightmare since Nat's inability to aim at a 45% angle was discovered.
