    Great 2D platformer. I didn’t play the original SNES and NES Metroids to compare, but stand-alone it’s a great game.

    My first Metroid game was Fusion and I've loved every side-scrolling Metroid prior and since (with exception to Other M). This title does a great job recreating Metroid 2 and adding new things to the title.
