I played and beat a new 2d metroid in the year 2021. My 8 year old self wouldn't believe it. The first true HD 2d metroid game. I legit teared up even looking at the title. Samus controls flawlessly for me imo. The emmi encounters were nerve wracking. The bosses this time around were a HUGE highlight. Dread fixed what slight issues I had with samus returns too. I will be replaying this game again and again over the years. Buy this game. Support this series. We need more Metroid.
