Maybe because the later 2D Metroids spoiled me, I dunno.

Honestly the only parts I liked was the first and last 30 mins of the game (6 and 1/2 hour playthrough)

+ Badass intro level
+ Revisiting Zebes at the start was cool
+ Wall jumping is cool but tricky
+ Reserve tanks
+ Best final boss sequence bar none

- other than the intro/ end, it's standard Metroid stuff. No area stood out except the sunken ship.
- I think the game is very muddy looking and kinda ugly.
- Grapple beam was disappointing
- bosses are meh except that sunken ship boss and the final boss. Even ridley was kinda ehhh.
- the biggest offender, the music and sfx. There only 2 songs that stuck out, and one them is repetitive. Absolutely the weakest 2D Metroid soundtrack.

The sfx... I'm sorry but they sound like garbage. Almost everything in this game sounds garbled or muffled. Missile shots, explosions, lasers. I don't like it at all
- why do red doors require 5 missiles to unlock?
- those one-way doors that require missiles, and even the ones that don't tbh
- I must have did the ridley fight wrong cuz it took foreverrrrr

My rankings; AM2R > Zero Mission = Fusion >> Super Metroid

I don't care if AM2R is a fan game. It's a perfect blend of the next 2 best ones, and it's damn fun

I would have probably liked it if I played SM first
