- Metroid 2 is an old ass game, holy s***.

Started a new save file with the intention of actually beating the game this time. Not very far but yeah, this game is dated as f***. Doesn't even have a map despite the level design really calling for it.
AM2R is so much better, it's not even funny. Can't wait for Samus Returns either.

It's not your place to decide which games aged poorly.

If you want to experience Metroid 2, AM2R is the only way to do it. The GB version is horrendously dated.

I love the original. That being said it is really flawed.

It introduced some great things to the series, but it has definitely been improved on in subsequent games. The (official) remake looks like it'll actually be pretty good though. Even if I'm a tiny bit apprehensive about Mercurysteam working on it, I'm mostly hopeful.

But it Metroid 2's case it's fine as two years later Super Metroid pretty much perfected the formula making Metroid two archaic by comparison.

I saw the remake trailer and it looked like samus was straight up smash attacking bosses.

I want to play Super Metroid some time I've beaten the first 2 prime games (played a good chunk of the third)
And beaten Zero Mission too.

Even if I'm a tiny bit apprehensive about Mercurysteam working on it, I'm mostly hopeful. Agreed. I respect the game for introducing so many elements that are crucial to the series but the game itself has aged terribly. The Spider-Ball should totally come back though. LordMarshal posted...

Eh, trust me. Metroid 2 is surprisingly linear so you don't really need a map very much. Just look at an online map of the GB version.
Edit: Also, what's wrong with the melee s*** in the official remake? It's a nice addition, and one of the few things I actually enjoyed about Other M. (Plus you don't have to use it.)

I dont like the deflect bosses armswing. It doesnt seem like metroid at all. Id be even more annoyed if she ever did it to ridley or mother brain.
Next shell be wave dashing through bosses.

As much as I hate Amibo content I am tempted to buy the squishy Metroid for the fusion mode.

Speaking of, I only have an OG 3DS so to actually use the amiibos, I'd need to buy an NFC reader i'm really hoping you can unlock all that s*** in-game might buy the amiibos at some point just for collector's purposes though

Doesn't even have a map despite the level design really calling for it. I don't know why people keep saying this, the game was deliberately designed to not need a map. Each area is self-contained and small enough to easily remember your way around.

Metroid II is much better with the color hack. I'd still recommend using save states unless you're already a fan of "NES hard" games. It's worth playing for the story elements. The beginning of Super Metroid makes a lot more sense after you've played II.

Every Metroid 2 map is going to have arrows connecting parts that just don't line up and/or stack on top of each-other. https://www.gamefaqs.com/gameboy/585799-metroid-ii-return-of-samus/faqs/28694?raw=1 Just look at the area in the upper right (first ruins). You're either going to have an arrow (or letter) in the high path or the low path, because the map just doesn't fit. There's no way an "in-game" map would work, without being broken up worse than Fusion's map. |

Metroid II is much better with the color hack If you have the GB cart you can play with the intended M2DX color palate on a Super Game Boy or GBA SP. I'm not 100% sure if an original GBA will display the expanded palate, but I tested it out on an SP the other day. I also saw color hack reproduction GBC carts on eBay for like $5 recently.
