A big part of Metroid 2 beyond the atmosphere was that it didn't play like other Metroids.

It plays a lot like Metroid 1 (except with added linearity and less difficulty). Well...Metroid 1 had its own quirks, like you couldn't even crouch, so had to kill things on the ground with bombs; M2 let you both crouch and also jump and aim down simultaneously giving you two ways to kill ground enemies.

The bosses are an improvement on Metroid 1, which says more about how bad Metroid 1 bosses were. (M2 Omega Metroids seem like a clear inspiration for Ridley's fight in Super Metroid--not as well designed, but better than the joke that was Ridley in Metroid 1).
