Basically the title, one of the things I will miss the most ok Reddit will be r/metroid and it doesn’t look like there anything similar in the Fediverse. Prove me wrong?

    Hell yeah! I still think about Metroid Prime every now and then. That’s an adventure that sticks with you.

    … although I wouldn’t mind forgetting the fully-voice buddy characters from 3.

    Definitely. I played Fusion as a kid and it’s been one of my favorite series since. I’m still working on finishing the Prime Remaster, I got sidetracked by TotK. But I can’t wait for Prime 4.

    Yeah I love Metroid! I prefer the 3D games - Metroid Prime Hunters is one that I don’t hear much about but it was my first Metroid game and I remember having a blast with it. I played the original Metroid Prime recently (Primehack, not the remaster). Really incredible level design. I need to get round to playing 2 and 3!

    Of the 2D games, I did enjoy Fusion and Dread. More than anything I love the genre it inspired - Hollow Knight for example is near perfect.

    Not at all current… But i dusted off a retro-pi i made a few years back over the weekend, and started playing Super Metroid. This game is pretty damn old, and a masterpiece of design… I cannot get over how well they nailed the music, stylized graphics, and overall “sense of place”… It is a fine fine game.

    I’ve been playing metroid fusion on switch the last few nights! First time since on the gba way back.

    Would love to see and a /c/metroid and /c/metroidvania

      I’m going to be in the same shoes soon. I just bought a switch finally and started my play through of the remaster of the first one and they really hit it out of the park with it. I hope they follow up with the other two soon.

    Metroid is based! The first one I played all the way through was Metroid Prime 3, but have also played much of Prime 1 (not the remaster) and more recently played Metroid Zero Mission, Metroid II with a color mod, and Super Metroid. Super Metroid is one of the best games I’ve ever played, it’s truly incredible, though in a way Metroid II might be my second favorite 2D Metroid I’ve played so far.

    I was playing Metroid Prime on my Steam Deck but haven’t picked up for a few months and sort of questioning if I should play the remaster or continue with my current save file on my Steam Deck. As far as 2D, I intend on playing Metroid Fusion next, and then Dread.
