Yeah, but fort that you had to finish the game. That was HARD as hell back in the days. I believe neither I nor anyone in my elementary school knew Samus was a girl because nobody managed to finish the game.

You had to finish the game within a certain time limit too. For super Metroid, you didn't get the full perfect ending unless you did it in 3 hours.

Which is impossible for a normal mortal..

I know this is coming off as tooting my own horn, but the reality is that I'm just very excited about it, because it was a big part of my younger years.

This is a very cool compliment to see, as someone who regularly tried to hit the sub 1 hour clear mark for Super Metroid.

Third sequel I guess? It's not a word. And Super Metroid would be the second sequel anyway.
