Once and for all, what is the best Metroidvania game?

I, the great and almighty OP, will keep track of this thread until it dies and tally up the final results. Just post whatever titles you think deserve mention. Will post results in new thread.

For this contest, I say we include any Metroidvania game made in any year.

Go!

Dragon's Trap was pretty impressive for an '80s game.

Anyway, Super Metroid has the most technical gameplay and coolest sequence breaks.

Mega Man X, and if you don’t think that counts as Metroidvania you are a literal brainlet, because he has a gun arm.

Save the whole game and it's design. Aria is a cartoon for 6-year-olds.

The two best metroidvania's IMO aren't retro, so I won't mention them here.

But doesn't that mean Halo is also a metroidvania since Halo wears an armor suit like Metroid?

Do you actually mean Metroidvania or Metroidlike?

Hahah. Not even close. One of them is getting platformer of the year (2017) in lots of places though, if that helps you.

actually ,my bad. Looks like some sort of rehash of the Italian plumber is scooping all those awards. Oh well. That wasn't the game i meant, obviously.

>Shadow Complex

Although good, its nowhere near top tier because its way too short.
