/vr/ - Retro Games

Sup /vr/, just played and finished Super Metroid just now, and I wanted to discuss this game with the best guys around.

This was technically my first time, I did play it before, but I was too young to understand that there was a run button, so I was stuck until I gave up, but coming back to it years later was so much better.

Compared to the other 2D metroids, I like this one, but I probably would've liked it more if I was using a better controller (I was emulating, used a Xbox 360 controller, so you can imagine) because Wall Jumping, Shine Sparking and even using the Screw Attack proved difficult because of that D-Pad.

It was kind of annoying that I knew a few parts of the game (like the fucking ending) since it ruined the experience of finding it out myself, but I didn't use a guide or walk thorough. I found everything myself.

How did I do for my first time (pic related) in 5:36. (Although, it took me a month irl)

Oh, and should I complete Metroid 2? From the looks of it, it doesn't look like a game I'd like. I have it on gameboy (hell it's in my super gameboy in my SNES) and I played a bit of it, and didn't like it, as opposed to liking Super Metroid and Fusion from the start.

Anyhow, discuss.
