As a brand new fan of the franchise, I feel incredibly lucky to just jump in to this game a week after I ran through all the 2D games. Anyways yeah this is great, it’s far and away the best controlling 2D Metroid. It’s a game that plays it relatively safe with it sticking closer to Super Metroid’s design (a little surprising) and it closed out the story that’s been building up since the first game. That’s why I am beyond excited to see what MercurySteam manages to pull off next cause the groundwork here is awesome.
