You will never play a REAL Metroid ever again

You will never play a REAL Metroid ever again.

AM2R just came out last summer

>our sworn enemy became our friend

fucking REALLY

What is Samus Returns?

Not a real Metroid game.

Nice Scotsman you've got there.

but we're getting 2

Looks like a 2D Metroid game, plays like a 2D Metroid game, I'm pretty sure since it fits those qualities, it's a real Metroid game.

The last "real" Metroid game was Fusion, if we're talking 2D. ZM was just easy, bastardized shit.

I never played a metroid game in my life. What should I play?

Did I miss something?

>He thinks Samus Returns is a real Metroid game
>He probably thinks Fusion and Super are real Metroid games
>He probably wants a new Metroid Prime or Other M.

This thread is retarded.

Super Metroid

>He thinks a Prime game is a real Metroid game
>He thinks a shitty action movie is a real Metroid game
>He clearly started the series late since he doesn't think any 2D Metroid games are real Metroid games

Zero mission
Fusion
AM2R
Super Metroid

Well of course not, how can we expect proper Metroid games in the future when the mindless sheep here worship cinematic garbage like Other M?

No, anything after 2 is not a real Metroid game.

Metroid is defined by it's exploration of a hostile alien environment. Adding in a map system ruined the uniquenss.

It's similar to how NSMB aren't real Mario game, or how Aonuma Zeldas aren't real Zelda games.

>probably thinks Fusion and Super are real Metroid games

Sup Forums gets so fucking carried away with shitposting

RUMUMBUH MUH?

Super Metroid was not my first Metroid. It was my third Metroid after the original and Metroid II. I considered Super Metroid an embarrassment because of how easy it was. I only rented it and never bought it (until it fell down to $20). Metroid II was unique in that it was a Gameboy game. It couldn’t do much. But Super Metroid couldn’t hold a candle to the majesty of experience that the original Metroid was.

When people play the original Metroid today, they find the mechanics crappy and the game super frustrating. These complaints are valid. However, EVERY GAME back then has those issues. Metroid came out in 1986, nearly THIRTY years ago. The original Metroid should not be compared to Super Metroid or to games made in 2015. That’s silly. Look at the games before it and during its time. There is no comparison. The original Metroid was a HUGE game compared to the others. It was very mysterious and a work of art. The endless corridors and the brutal difficulty just add to it. If you use a map, the game becomes straightforward and somewhat easy. However, if you do not, you’re in for a very brutal game that will wipe the paint off your Dark Souls.

I think Super Metroid gets slightly challenging only with Phantoon. Other than that, the game is a cake-walk. The reason why it has aged so well is because the game asks very little from the player like modern games.

>Sean Malstrom
Ooooooooh shit.

It's Sean Malstrom, ignore him.

Define real Metroid game. We got a 2D remake from fans. We get a 2D remake from Nintendo and we get a Prime from Nintendo.
Something has to be a real one in your definition.

>He plays Metroid for difficulty
lol? even then, Prime 2 is harder than Fusion.

We never played a REAL Metroid
The closes we got was Fusion with all that Metroid DNA shit, but Samus was still a third Metroid and human and bird shit
