Safer_777 posted... Metroid, the original game, has huge playrate for such an old title.
Keep in mind it's been re-released on GCN (through a Metroid Prime/Fusion link), GBA twice (NES Classic cart and Zero Mission unlockable), Virtual Console releases, and Switch Online.
Lot of opportunities to play it. Now whether people enjoy it...that's another question altogether. I'm a big Metroid guy, and personally I think it's the worst 2D Metroid by a mile. Metroid II for Gameboy s***s all over M1.
