Super Metroid for Super Nintendo

Pros: Everything except...
Cons: the fact it's a little too easy

Best game ever made? No, but that would be Metroid Prime, Super Metroid lost the title after Prime’s release. I had thought for the longest time that this gem of a game was one of the best, if not the best game I have ever played. I didn’t think many ...

Pros: It's Metroid..c'mon. The gameplay, graphics, sound, and story make it a classic.
Cons: ...but are you willing to shell out 20 smackers for a SNES cart? Do it.

Now that I’m done sneezing from all the dust I just blew off my Super Nintendo, let’s get this review started…

I had to go back in time for this one, Reader. I was fishing through my closet and came across my trusty SNES (that...

Pros: Super Metroid is truly gameplay at it's best. One of the best SNES offerings.
Cons: It ends, but you don't want it to!

Estimated Price $10 (if you're lucky)-$30

I'm going to say it here. Super Metroid is flat-out the best game ever made. And I MEAN it. Not just because a magazine said so, or other people and sites said so. But this is my personal...

Pros: Simply put, this game is everything an adventure game should be...
Cons: ...but I still wish there was more.

Prologue

Metroid. New...

Pros: An addictive and engaging action game with all the right stuff.
Cons: It should only take a week or two to fully finish everything here.

SUPER METRIOD (Nintendo, Spring 1994) This is only the third game of the Metroid series but despite the lack of sequels (Super Smash Bros. doesn't count) to the games they still receive a good cult following and Super Metroid is still ...

Pros: great graphics, great gameplay
Cons: easy enemies.

Ok I'll admit Metroid isn’t my all time favorite game for the NES, but several years ago when I rented Super Metroid I didn’t know what to expect. I mean the commercials looked cool with the advertisement putting a big pitbull in a room, and...

Pros: I like being able to use Samus's ship to replenish ammo and health.
Cons: Personally I would have liked it if Samus didn't lose health when doing speed flying.

This game is the best side scrolling Metroid game ever. It's superior graphics and beautiful music sets the mood for killing all the different types of creepy monsterous aliens. Futhermore The lenghth of the game is amazing with all the secrets and surprises it's just absolutely amazing. Also the bosses of the game get tougher as you get further in the game such as, like when you first start you have to fight a revived Chozo statue which is kinda easy, but then much later on in the game in Norfair you have to fight another revived Chozo statue but it's much more powerful than the first like the first one does'nt shoot laser beams at you and you can only damage it with charge shots making it pretty difficult.
