Jakob Fel :spinningdisc:After much frustration, I finally finished Super Metroid entirely. Up until now, I had gotten far in the game but never outright beat it. Before now, the only Metroid game I completely beat was Zero Mission.Great game (and a very solid ending) but man, there are certain segments that get me wanting to rip out my hair :terry_nono: <a href="https://retro-gaiden.com/tags/RetroGames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RetroGames</a> <a href="https://retro-gaiden.com/tags/snes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#snes</a> <a href="https://retro-gaiden.com/tags/Nintendo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Nintendo</a> <a href="https://retro-gaiden.com/tags/metroid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#metroid</a> <a href="https://retro-gaiden.com/tags/supermetroid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#supermetroid</a> <a href="https://retro-gaiden.com/tags/90s" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#90s</a>

I'll always support the idea of having a movement system that's approachable but with a high ceiling (ie, wall jumping).<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Retro" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Retro</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Videogames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Videogames</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Gaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Gaming</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Games" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Games</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Metroid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Metroid</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Metroidvania" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Metroidvania</a>

.:\dGh/:.There was a contest about the best <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Metroid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Metroid</a> game. While Super Metroid came first (color me impressed), Metroid Dread came second place and Metroid Prime third.Metroid Prime redefined the <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/metroidvania" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#metroidvania</a> formula on an FPS, got GOTY in many publications and was the best Gamecube game on 2002.

chronohart<a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/SuperMetroid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SuperMetroid</a> finished! Took just over 5 hours and I coolected 85% of the items. This might be the first time I've ever finished the game entirely without looking up a guide. There's definitely something freeing about replaying a game without worrying about collecting everything.Very pleasant playthrough. I'm pretty sure some of the Redux patch changes enabled me to make it into some places out of order, which was interesting. I was worried a couple times that it got me stuck, but each time it all turned out well.Definitely still got some time left this month, but I'm feeling pretty satisfied as far as Metroid goes, so I'm calling it here this month.

chronohartGetting started on <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/SuperMetroid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SuperMetroid</a> today. Played the original plenty, both on original hardware and emulated, so I'm going with the Redux patch this time. Was gonna try wide-screen, too, but it seems the switch can't really handle the bsnes emulator.

ScribblemacherFinished a replay of <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/SuperMetroid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SuperMetroid</a> tonight. Confirmed: it's still great. So far for <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/VGCMay2025" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#VGCMay2025</a> I've finished:+ Metroid + Metroid II + Super Metroid + Metroid FusionI have an in-progress save in Metroid Prime as well, where I'm close to going to the Mines (so I might quit, haha). I tried Pinball but hated it and Hunters, but found it boring.There's Zero Mission, but I did replay that within the past year. Apparently I forgot how much I like <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/Metroid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Metroid</a>

chronohartAnd done!Glad I didn't spend the money on Metroid Prime Remastered, but I *am* glad I played it! Checking out the remaster was good motivation to get participating again and the game itself was fun regardless.Didn't remember having quite so much trouble with the platforming nor the enemies that required specific beam types previous (Fusion Metroids and Troopers), but eh.Surprised how low my completion percentage is, though! Only 83%, but I did at least get Samus sans helmet!Since the month's barely half over, I think I'll pick another game. Probably <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/SuperMetroid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SuperMetroid</a>.

rk: it’s hyphen-minus actuallyThere is a bug in Super Metroid with the eye doors: they fail to properly delete their projectiles upon defeat and so if you hang around after defeating them, the game could crash. I was trying to find an article I read on this, and Google’s enshittified AI happily told me that the “Super Metroid eye door bug” refers to the bug that allows you to open certain doors by shooting missiles at the eye, and you can exploit this bug to enter Phantoon’s chamber. 🙄<a href="https://mastodon.well.com/tags/enshittification" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#enshittification</a> <a href="https://mastodon.well.com/tags/superMetroid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#superMetroid</a>
