My frist Metroid game, I thought it was good, but I have a few problems.
I found the game pretty frustratingly difficult towards the middle and end of the game, with many tedious segments and annoying bosses that just felt like the game was spamming attacks at me without real ryme or reason(Mecha-Ridley).
I also thought some abilities were pretty inconvienient to use as the SuperSpeed requires so much space to pull off oit becomes inpractocal in most situations, and the ScrewAttack can lead to accidentally killing a frozen enemy I was trying to stand on, as well as the flying part of ScrewAttack in the end of the game being really picky on the timing of the jumps.
However I still like many parts of this game the Music and Graphics are a highlight, and the first two thirds of the game I had a lot of fun exploring the main map for the first time.

I like the game I just wish it just wasn't so speratically annoying, not a terrible first impression however, I will definatley try out more of the series.
