This remake breathes a new life out of the original Metroid game. The controls felt really fluid and intuitive coming off the success of Metroid Fusion. You return once again to planet Zebes kick Mother Brain's ass all while figuring your way through the planet full of secret paths and bosses. Out of all the Metroid games I played, this one felt less stressful and was fun to get by. This could also be translated as: the game is a just a bit easier than the others. It's also a bit shorter than the other games.

The stealth sequence at the end is by far the biggest highlight of the game for me. At first it's like you put in all this time getting your suit powered up just to lose it... just to get even better and OP suit right after. That's kinda badass to me.
