What went so right ?
It spawned superior games 8 years later.

Good one.
>>319236998
the natural evolution of metroid 1, fixing basically every single thing that made it shitty and keeping/refining the aspects that made it good in the first place
>>319238847
Are you talking about the scanning simulator game or the one with a permanent GPS?
Thoses two game are great, but no close to this one

They're better than Backtracking Simulator '94.
Very good design.

>Implying there isn't a load of backtracking in the Prime series
>>319241286
Prime 2 is the worst with that with those fucking light/dark parallel univers

Gunpei keeping Sakamoto in line.
ITT: People who don't like Metroid.
And to answer OP, the whole atmosphere and the OST, they make a great combination, add some monsters with good designs and creepy yet mysterious alien locations and there, you have a great Metroid game.

I honestly feel like seeing Samus outside of her suit at all for any reason was a mistake.
Waifufags are repulsive.
>>319242478
>>319242793
Zero Suit was a mistake. But I guess they didn't want her running around on the Space Pirate ship in a sports bra and shorts.
>>319242793
It's actually a really cool addition to the game, in the 80's/90's, nobody actually expected this badass bounty hunter to be a woman, it's a little detail but a good one.
Now, if you're talking about moderns ZSS? Then yes, I agree with you.
>>319236998
Everythingexcept that the gameplay is a little to floaty to my tastes, I prefer the physics of Zero Mission but the Super Metroid physics are still fine. I have yet to find a flaw in this game.
>>319243167
>>319243189
Yeah, it doesn't bother me so much in the old ones. I meant that it was a mistake because of what it became.
Hey since you all are bigger fans of Metroid than I am, what do you think of that remake of Metroid 2 that fan is making?
>>319244213
It's fucking amazing.
>>319244213
Why didn't Nintendo make one already?
>>319244213
I don't know if it will ever get released, it's been in development for a few centuries
>>319244213
Is it still a thing? I feel like it's been in development for like 10 years. It's amazing to me that people are still excited for it. Has he released more or less complete builds or something?
>>319244621
They're getting pretty close man.
From the blog:
>At this pace, development will shift to the final areas pretty soon, bringing us closer to the finished game.

adding color is more effort than the usual rehash

The fuck is this Danmaku bullshit doing in my metroid game?
>>319236998
It had a huge amount of re-playability thanks to mechanics that are introduced later into the game such as shinesparking and wall jumping.
