Holy crap. I just played through the game for the first time and I almost can't believe the sheer quality of it. I loved Fusion and Super Metroid, and now I'm in love with this game as well. The little twist near the end was such a fantastic surprise. I don't think that was in the original Metroid, was it? (the section once you beat Mother Brain and more gaming awesomeness ensues) And there are so many endings to get! I could be playing this game forever. Actually, I still need to meet the challenges in Fusion. :-\ This game is just...amazing. Words cannot describe how fantastic it is. The music, the visuals, the atmosphere, the gameplay, the story sequences, the EVERYTHING. This franchise has just vaulted into my personal top 5 favourites.
Now, to figure out how the hell to beat this thing in under 2 hours...I did it in about 3 and a half. (got the ending where Samus has her helmet off) I might also want a strategy guide for 100% item completion. Thank you Nintendo. Now remake Metroid II and Super Metroid.
