Your Favourite Metroid - General Discussion Forum

What's your favourite Metroid? what's your favourite type of Metroid? Are you 2D sidescroller or 3D First Person exploratory Adventure? Well I first played Metroid with Metroid Fusion on GBA when that first came out and I enjoy the 2D Metroids over 3D ones personally because I find it way easier to remember the entire 2D maps off by heart, then try and memorise a 3-Dimensional Metroid game. What I enjoy most about 2D metroids, are the ones with no map system, specifically the original Metroid and Metroid II: Return of Samus, that doesn't mean to say I don't like the other 2D Metroids, but I love a bit of a challenge. Speaking of challenges, I'm not a big speed runner, but I have speed-runned Metroid Zero Mission at least a couple a dozen times, mostly because I feel the original is too old for that and is significantly harder for speed runs. I think the fastest i've ever beaten Zero Mission is 1hr 15 mins, including post game (mecha ridley etc), pretty fast if you ask me. Of all the Metroids, I own the Original Metroid on NES (including the bonus copy on Zero Mission), Metroid II (3DS VC), Super Metroid (Wii VC), Metroid Zero Mission (GBA), Metroid Fusion (GBA, 3DS VC), Metroid Prime Hunters (DS) and Metroid Other M (Wii). I pretty much love all those games, yes, including Other M, I enjoyed that a lot and personally I don't see why people over-reacted the way they did. I think Samus needs character development, she isn't a robot, she's human and after all we got to see and hear more about the Galactic Federation, who for the most part of the series, has been in the shadows the whole time. I don't know why Nintendo hasn't given us any news about a new Metroid in development, after all the games aren't always released or set in chronological order, for example Other M is actually set in between Super Metroid and Metroid Fusion. I have heard Team Ninja has expressed interest in a new Metroid, but I'd rather this time Nintendo have one of their R&D groups handle it and further more have Yoshio Sakamoto write a game that's set after Fusion, I'm dying to know what happens to Samus now and I say it's the next logical step for the series in general.

Can't decide. Fusion and Super Metroid are both great games. Super Metroid has better map although Fusion's map isn't bad either. Fusion has better bosses. Fusion is a bit harder because of Nightmare and I like a good challenge.
Can't say which one is better so I think I'll just say what's third. Metroid Prime.

Zero Mission > Metroid 2 > Metroid Fusion > Metroid Prime Hunters > OG Metroid > Metroid Pinball
And I for one consider them to be Great games. I'd list Super Metroid, but I can't really give an opinion since It's been years since I barely played it and my SNES has long been gone. Will buy it again if, and thats a big IF, it comes out in the form of Metroid: Super Mission, most preferably on the 3DS.

Super. I'm not a big fan of the other games, but Super is absolutely amazing.

I've played the most of Metroid Prime which I thought was exceptional, but I thought Other M was fun though a little weak in the plot.
