Topic: Super Metroid


  
 Metroid series - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Metroid (Japanese : メトロイド)games are a series of video games produced by Nintendo.
Super Metroid is set on the same planet as the original game, but with help from the capabilities of the SNES (and an unusually large cartridge at 24 megabit) features larger and more diverse environments, as well as a more detailed in-game plot than was found in the first two games.
The Metroid games are particularly associated with nonlinear gameplay, which was pioneered by the first installment in the series.

There's a reason Super Metroid is Gaming World's first Classic Game of the Week.
From the molten lava to the underwater caverns, Nintendo convincingly immerses the player in Samus' armor and sets her on her quest through some of the most ambient level design in gaming history.
With its eerie atmospheres, intriguing plot, and hideous life-sucking Metroids, the game was truly a departure for the otherwise "kid-friendly" company.

 TNL Forum - Super Metroid vs Metroid Prime
Super Metroid is a great game on its own, but I don't find myself going back to it as often as I do Metroid.
Metroid Prime is an okay game, but I don't even know if there's much sense in comparing it to the other games since it's so dissimilar.
I've always liked the metroid style exploration games and although Super Metroid was an excellent game, it seemed more like a 16 bit upgrade to the original than a truly original direction.

 SUPER METROID from Nintendo
Anyway, seeing the Metroids as a way to take over the universe, the Zebesian space pirates captured the Metroids and fled to their base planet, Zebes.
Anyway, that's the background story (with a little editing, but...), and so in SUPER METROID, you play Samus Aran again on Zebes, intent on defeating the pirates once and for all.
In every game in the series, you play the bounty hunter Samus Aran.
