Almost a perfect game. Once you start playing this game believe you would not stop playing this game. Perfect for those Metroidvania fans.

A great continuation of the saga that most of us grew up playing. Game isn't super easy either and has many challenging levels.

We haven't had a Metroid game in a long time and Metroid 2 desperately needed a remake. This game is a great example of how to do a remake.

This is a great re-imagining of the Metroid game on the gameboy. Even if you never played that, you should get this

It's been a while since the last 2d Metriod game which are among my favorite games of all time and this one is right up there with them.

A really good game, but where's the Amiibo?

This is a really good game. If you've ever played Super Metroid, Hollow Knight, or Castlevania you know what you're getting. My only complaint is the game comes with an Amiibo that is sort of needed to unlock features. And said Amiibo was pre-order only.

Excellent remake of Metroid 2 for the original game boy. It was like playing a completely new game but so much like the original.

One of the best Metroid games ever made. I can't wait for a Super Metroid remake with the same graphics style.

If you’re a fan of 2D Metroid you’ll like Metroid: Samus Returns. Brings back memories of Metroid fusion on GBA.

Great remake of an awesome game. 3d looks cool and new gameplay mechanics don't take away from the metroid feel.

This game is really really fun, but the game suffers from being on 3DS. I wish this game came to Switch so it would visually look better, but on 3DS, it's fine. The gameplay is exactly what you would expect from a game like Super Metroid.
