Metroid: Zero Mission ALL BOSSES DEFEATED!
The one that started it all but REMADE!
Ive been looking forward to playing this as when I played it years ago, I loved it. It was my second favorite 2D Metroid after Samus Returns and now what do I think about it now?
Well, I still love it. Does it have flaws, yeah, but it doesnt bring down the experience at all. They took the NES game, applied everything that they learned from all previous games to craft what I would consider a damn good remake. Everything from the NES game has been improved from level design, poweups, music, gameplay and bosses. My feelings towards this game are hard to describe since I just like this game so much.
I guess lets talk about some flaws. First off, I feel like its a little too easy. Not a big deal, but its definitely the easiest out of all the 2D Metroids. To give credit where it's due, I like that it gives the feeling of being powerful as hell, just like the NES did. And the other flaw I have is that the Power Bomb powerup felt a little tacked on. Like if you removed it from the game, nothing would change at all.
As for the bosses, theyre also on the easier side, probably the easiest out of all 2D Metroids followed by the NES game and Metroid 2. However, just because theyre doesnt mean the fights arent bad, on the contrary, theyre massive improvements over the NES game and they add a few new bosses to the mix. While they're mostly filler, they were fun fights.
As for my favorite fights: Kraid, Ridley, Imago, Chozo Guardian and Mecha Ridley.
