The newest project from the series that people love seeing me play. Corruption is well underway, and the next chance I can upload, expect a continuation of Mario 3 as well. Until then, enjoy the beginning of a 100% Speed Run of one of the best 2D outings in Metroid history. A remake of the original (which in my opinion has aged horribly by NES standards) draws from the good aspects of Super and Fusion to craft a portable masterpiece.

Zero Mission's greatest strength is the attention to detail from the developers that makes the path through Zebes so open-ended. Oftentimes, in areas where you might require one thing, there's another method to get around it. This makes low % runs not only an interesting challenge to play the game, but also an intended option by the developers, who included special endings for those who beat the game with 15% completion or less. But as with previous Metroid games, 100% Speed Runs are another way to play, as I demonstrate in this run.
