Another series, another thread! I intend to make one for them all... actually probably not. But if Megaman and Castlevania can have their hub threads, why not another Nintendo flagship series, one beloved by many here, Metroid!
This is a series I also enjoy, though there are some I've played more than others; I'm more a fan of the Prime games than I am the 2D games, but I enjoy those as well. I've played all of them besides Zero Mission and Hunters, and beaten all of them except for the first. I think. I don't really remember beating the first, and if I did, it was probably with cheats or something.
But now that I've moved on from the Castlevania series, many of which have gameplay similar to Metroid, I've moved on to the progenitor of the 2D sidescrolling action-adventure genre, I'll finish the unfinished business, and I'll have a damn good time doing it.
Except Other M, I never plan on playing that ever again.
Also I too am desperate for the next entry in the series.
