Super Metroid. It’s supposed to be a classic but I can’t stand it. I just hate the way the physics feels so slow. Jumping and left/right acceleration just made the game feel terrible to play.

The Metroid prime series were great though.

Love super Metroid. This is totally fair though. We’ve gotten a lot of platformers since which have vastly improved on the feel and controls (notably Metroid Dread feels incredible), so going back to the game is rough. Especially with… holding a button to run :p

A lot of the good stuff from the game comes more from the feeling of isolation, music, exploration. Stuff that prime also did well.
