Super Metroid is great, I wandered for 2 hours once just wondering where the hell am I going or even doing. The original Metroid thats tougher as nothing is really clear and certain things are really well hidden, almost too hard. I wouldn't blame anyone for watching a walkthrough before playing, at a minimum at least look up low key references on how to look for stuff and passage ways
I mean, the game barely teach you to do wall and space jumps lol.
I still can't do a proper wall jump
“Teach”? Man back in the NES days it was “here’s the game, figure it out…. Sure we included instructions but it’s just what the buttons can do and a lot of pretty pictures and background lore”
Yes haha, that's why I bought a lot of video game magazines back then haha
