Favourite Metroid game? (lemmy.world)

My favourite Metroid game has got to be Zero Mission on the GBA.

A weird choice maybe but it was my first metroid when I played the GBA, I thought the music and atmosphere was kick ass and enjoyed the simple enough controls.

For a 3D Metroid it would be the trilogy on Wii at the time.

What about you?

Well, what I meant was that you could enter the door and immediately be stuck in that quick time event that you usually fail because the window is so small, and you couldn't see where the EMMI would be before you crossed the door's threshold.

If you ever get into a EMMI QTE you've done something wrong. The QTE is a glorified game over screen, the 1% chance of escaping is only there to make it scarier with false hope

But that's what I'm saying. It's so unlikely you'll make it out of it that when you walk into the room and the EMMI is already occupying the space you walked into blindly, it's a frustrating unavoidable fail state.

I could be wrong, but I think that only happens if you repeatedly enter and exit the EMMI Zone, allowing it to wander around too much. Which is something you might get scared into doing on a first playthrough!
