I first played Super Metroid about a year ago. I spent probably thirty or forty minutes trying to wall jump out of there, the timing is just so wonky. I definitely like the whole idea behind how it's hidden from you and then presented, though. And if the maneuver was easier to pull off, most people would discover it way before then, allowing them to sequence break some stuff probably. And once you figure it out, it's not that hard to do.
So all in all I'd say the whole thing is a positive, But man, during those thirty or forty minutes I was absolutely livid.
