Let me tell you, this was my first Metroid to beat and it was BRUTAL at times. But it's still just so engaging to explore and simultaneously find upgrades, which then make you all the more powerful. And you feel that power, oh man. This game gets challenging but at the same time, it gives back and rewards you with some exhilarating power. It's challenge that rewards players who are observant and eager to learn. The final boss is brutally long, but man was I so satisfied beating it.

So yeah, I need to finish Super Metroid, play Zero Mission, Fusion and Dread, but yeah I'm a fan. I'd say this is my favorite 3DS game and if you're trying to find a good exclusive before you can't buy anything on the 3DS eShop anymore, this is what I'd personally recommend.
