I'm stuck in the Phazon mines in Metroid Prime, and I recognize its use of the Metroidvania tropes, but the 3D controls make it feel so clunky. I've been trying to finish the game since 2011 and I'm not sure if I care enough.

In all my years of gaming, the only Metroid games I have finished were all 2D, save for Other M. It just feels right that way.

IDK anon, I just feel that Super did what Prime was trying to do in a way that was much more immersive for me as a player.

I am playing it on the Wii instead of the GCN; maybe the motion controls are ruining it.

Its worth it to finish 1, the mines are a pretty small area and you'll only revisit it once if you arent using a guide or trying to 100%. Then again, I'm probably biased because I love the prime trilogy to the point I've beaten all 3 on hypermode for the wii version.

Are the OG controls better? I really hope the eventual Switch port has that option. I fucking hate the Wiimote.

The game is tailored around the OG controls, not Wiimote controls. Also, you are going to want to play Prime 2 on GC than Wii.
