Although it is the third Metroid game, this is what I consider to be classic Metroid.

Top 15 greatest game of all times

In my opinion, this is the very best of the Metroid series.

The art, music, and gameplay mechanics make for a truly unforgettable experience.


"The Last Metroid Is In Captivity. The Galaxy Is At Peace..." - Results determined that was a lie.

Met-, sorry spoilers, I mean Sammy's third escapade with Nintendo is where her space adventures really hit their stride! As my first exposure to the series via the 3DS's e-Shop, I can see how it was a genre defining experience. It did Baby Yoda and Mando way before it was even a thing and this game proudly stands with Castlevania as the pioneers of the Metroidvania genre to this day! The set pieces and gameplay are still fun to play in.

Best in the series. 80% completion, might go for the 100% one day.

This might be the greatest game of all time

Played this again today just because I needed a reminder that this series is actually really reallllly good after the disappointment I had with the Prime series.
This game is genuinely perfect, I skipped high jump boots just because I can lol and this game allows you to do that with no glitches just wall jumps and bomb jumps. It's insane.
This is the best designed game ever and I really want a metroid sequel that is designed like this because I'm really tired of the zero mission approach.

Classic!
Started a new genre in a way.

Favorite game of all time without a doubt. Great atmosphere, great soundtrack, fun gameplay, hits the perfect sweet spot in difficulty, fucking cool boss fights--it's well deserving of its Classic status.

every good thing you've heard about this game is true
