>>342723186
i can see why. those graphics look so real.
look at the details in e.t.s face
>>342723443
3ds versions is the objectively best version unless you are a muh shadows fag
>>342723443
It's the same game, so if you've never played OoT, just go for it.

Not really, Metroid model of exploration has some neat quirks, like being able to get to Kraid through walljumping rather than through itemization but in most cases you're just being railroaded into backtracking. It's a gameplay style that's heavily reliant on keys (another word for items) and your progress is constantly being impeded to disguise the linearity of it.
Toki Tori 2 has improved on the formula.
>>342723068
What makes it so great? I didn't play much because the pacing was completely off due to ludicrous amount of exposition married with endless tutorial section.
Please don't use words like "comfy", I'm talking about mechanics and map design. I don't even think the art design is good, it came during heyday of low poly age and its models lack finesse other 3D games had.
>>342724605
Can you give examples of how exploration and pacing is done better in other games?
>>342724850
Now I want to play Nightmare Creatures II
>>342724850
i love how it looks, that pixelated 3D is comfy as fuck and reminds me of Nightmare Creatures
>>342724605
Other games improving the Metroid formula does not mean SM didn't age like wine.
That and you mentioning a more obscure game and going "I don't see the appeal" for OoT screams "I'm a pedantic video game connoisseuir, filthy plebeians!"
>>342725091
I'm talking about gameplay mechanics you fucking retard.
>>342724871
I mentioned Toki Tori 2 which is designed around sequence breaking through and through unlike Super Metroid which does it on rare occasion.
Both NES Zeldas
Fight me.
>>342724605
To be fair you can avoid literally 95% of backtracking if you can do basic sequence breaking and have a well planned route
>>342722786
Yeah sure aged fine,it has like a million useless items that serve no fucking purpose like what the fuck am i going to do with 200 missiles and 50 super missiles when my the upgraded charge shot does more damage,also you don't have any indication on how to get to maridia you just have to buy a fucking guide or nintendo power AND it also doesn't have ingame controlls so you have to have a manual or go to the net to learn how to "metroid crawl" and walljump
>>342723864
Please dont kill me, but i think think everything about this game is bad except for the art-style
>>342725235
When did I ever imply you were not talking about gameplay? Now you're being angry and attacking others for no reason.
>>342725383
i would never kill you for not liking a game however i will always point out that you have an absolute shit taste
I can alway go back to it.
>>342725421
I'm not attacking you, it's a fact you're a fucking retard. You proved that by "quoting me"
>That and you mentioning a more obscure game and going "I don't see the appeal" for OoT screams "I'm a pedantic video game connoisseuir, filthy plebeians!"
So fuck off.
>>342725243
But I really liked both of em, no reason to fight you.
>>342725461
bruh
>>342725235
What you're saying is that you like Toki Tori 2 better because it focuses on a different mechanic. That doesn't mean Super Metroid's mechanics are bad, even if you don't prefer them.

I played this game for the first time 3 or 4 years ago. Undoubtedly one of the best Game Boy games.

>also you don't have any indication on how to get to maridia you just have to buy a fucking guide or nintendo power
I'm surprised this is such a common complaint. I'm a massive oblivious retard when it comes to metroidvanias and I thought that tunnel was suspicious.
The way to get to kraid's lair can go suck a dick though. Fucking spot the block that's one pixel off center.
>>342725830
>Camera's pretty bad
When will this meme end
>>342726551
Great game, must beat every year.
Also pic related. Seasons and Ages also aged well too.
>>342726767
the camera sucks. it was one of the main reasons why this game got more credit then it deserved

Damn, square has fallen far.
>>342726985
It doesn't suck. You are in control of the camera at near all times. If it's in a bad position, it's because you've failed to move it to a good position. The only areas where this doesn't apply is in the sub levels, like the pyramid or the igloo, where the camera is objectively shit.
Compare this to Galaxy, where you rarely have any control over the camera, and when you do your control is extremely limited, and SM64's camera is superior.
(Sunshine has the best camera though, as you always have unlimited freedom to put it wherever you want.)
>>342727216
Aged better than FF7
>>342727216
I really love this game but you can't deny it has aged badly.
Chrono Trigger is a better exemple of great aging IMO. FFVI has too many random phases (especially at the beginning) and difficulty spikes to be considered a game which aged well.
Still a must play and one of the best RPG of its era.
>>342722786
Disregarding the memes and autistic community that surround the game now, it has aged very well in my opinion
>>342727501
Chrono Trigger is my favorite game and I believe both have aged well.
![EarthBound[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/qnIvKbG.jpg "EarthBound[1].jpg")
Sprites age better than polygons.
>>342728284
Agreed, still great. Some sprites are a bit ugly but overall it still is a great experience today.

>art design not good
Ocarina of Time was the first video game to have facial animations, and faces that didn't look like cardboard.
If you can't appreciate even that much, you're a millennial baby. I don't mean it as a buzzword. I mean you are really what the word means. If it wasn't made after the iPhone you can't enjoy it unless you grew up with it. Tell me I'm freaking wrong and did not just peg your entire sense of artistic evaluation in one sentence.
I'm not going to pamper the rest of your post, but it's popular because it's a good game that cumulatively does everything well, whereas other games focus on one thing, but suck at everything else.
>>342725706
As with every Matsuno game, after the first third everything devolves into ridiculously powerful characters finding counters for one another, and the player gets railroaded into a rock paper scissors playstyle.
It's like a tedious version of Fire Emblem with better art and less tactical effort (positioning isn't as punishing, no way).
>>342729126
Animations have little to do with art design. I'd continue replying were it not for the meme image and the "millenial baby" part proclaiming you unable to hold your side of the argument.
>>342727216
I just finished up FFIV. Loved the game, but fuck the random encounter rate. How are V and VI? They're the last ones I haven't played. IV had great characters, areas, combat and story, but the exploration is really fucking hampered by constant random battles. They used the "each step has a certain chance of triggering a battle" formula instead of the racing generated value between two fixed numbers, which completely fucked up the rate.
>>342729749
V is the best 2D FF by a noticeable margin
Would have been 5/5 were it released now
>>342729917
Better than VI despite all I've heard? V is up next for me, then VI.
I always go back to this gem.
>>342724850
>Bloodborne with tank controls
I'd buy it.
>>342729951
It had an Anniversary release a few years back.

>>342730165
Niggaers you can allready play this. You just need a dreamcast.
Somebody please help. I have a vivid memory that brings me great nostalgia.
I remember playing a game 10+ years ago (might have been on a demo disc) and all i remember is running through a very large open field
with a small cave entrance in the side of the mountain and i remember fighting little creatures. I can't remember specific details just the open low poly landscape and it was
very green. Could it have been a Zelda game? I remember playing as a little boy character and i seem to remember there being a large bad guy in the opening cutscene.

Super Metroid has god awful controls, switching between weapons is a pain in the ass.
>>342731119
the 3ds version lacks the shadows that the N64 had and some people have decided that it means the 3ds version is garbage even with stable 30fps and touchscreen inv management
>>342722786
Great choice OP, one of my favourite games ever.
Metroid games other than 1/2 seem to age very well.
>>342725243
I like them but I wouldn't say Zelda 1 has aged well.
>>342723443
For OOT yes, for MM no.
>>342731687
what did they do to MM?
>>342730457
Buy a PlayStation Underground demo disk and try them all. Nostalgia like you wouldn't believe.
>>342731924
they changed a whole bunch of mechanics
>>342731924
Aside from messing with mechanics a bit they fucked the art direction a little more. In OOT it's largely a straight upgrade with the only real changes being in the Shadow Temple I think. In MM in general a lot of colours are much brighter, the moon looks super goofy, NO RAINBOW STAIRS in the Astral Observatory, and all bosses have these goofy big Majora's eyeballs.
There's probably more I'm forgetting, but overall the game just looks a lot less offputting and foreboding now.
>>342725556
This game's so good it's not even fair.
>>342729458
>animation has little to do with art design
>>342733972
Yes, if you knew what the root of the word animation means you could understand it better. You might be surprised, but there is a difference between an artist and an animator.

I always like introducing friends to old classic games I love. Got my roommate to play Super Metroid since he'd never played it. He loved it so fucking much that he speedruns it now and is approaching competitive times. Took him like a month to be faster than me and I've been playing that shit since I was like 7. Fuck me.

It really hasn't.

>>342735253
what has aged poorly?
This will forever be my favorite game on the gamecube.
>>342735142
It's piss easy and you have to complete five entire dungeons before it stops railroading you. It's a godo game but not better than the original.
>>342735559
Ocarina of Time improved on literally everything Link to the Past has done.
>>342736137
OoT and aLttP have completely different moment to moment gameplay. It's like comparing Sonic 3 to Sonic Adventure; nonsense.
And you haven't explained what in particular has aged poorly.
>>342736137
Except controls and graphics. Those don't stand test of time, which is usual deal for early 3d games.
>>342735142
>Zelda 1 aged like milk
bullshit
The only frustrating thing about it is the 3 heart status on continue and low drop rate because Wizzrobes are fucking assholes

>>342736542
>OoT and aLttP have completely different moment to moment gameplay. Other than one being 3D and one being 2D they are pretty much the same type of game. It's not like Super Mario Bros. and Super Mario 64 where both have completely different gameplay styles.
>It's like comparing Sonic 3 to Sonic Adventure; nonsense.
But it's not because Sonic Adventure tried to stray away from the original Sonic formula unlike OOT which expands on it.
>And you haven't explained what in particular has aged poorly.
Why has Zelda 1 aged poorly? Because Link to the Past improves on it in every single way. Same thing for OOT. Better gameplay, better music, better dungeons, more content, more immersive etc.
>>342736662
>Except controls
What was wrong with OOT's controls exactly? They weren't even that bad. It's still very playable even to this day.
>and graphics
If you don't remember Link to the Past looked like SHIT, even for a SNES game. It was incredibly bland looking.

Wow I messed up that part. Lemme fix it real quick.
>OoT and aLttP have completely different moment to moment gameplay.

>>342736662
>controls and graphics. Those don't stand test of time
I wouldn't call OoT better than ALTTP due to all the fetch quests, cutscenes and other cinematic stuff encroaching on the gameplay, but the controls and graphics were extremely solid. It was blocky as fuck but you're comparing it to a game that brought us Pink Link fighting Tall Pokey Minch

Yes, the graphics have aged like shit (and we're possibly bad even for it's time), but the gameplay has aged like a fine Merlot.

>>342740307
Ninja Gaiden has so many technical problems but instead of trying to fix them the devs used them purposefully to fuck you over harder. having only 1 jump height kills the game
>>342740656
I came from the 8bit/16bit era and the "64"bit era for me was filled with PC games. I do feel pity for all the kids who had to endure OoT as their first Zelda game though.
>>342735572
I found that the prequel is much better at aging despite being inferior
Without this game
>>342741035
