Yeah, I only really got into Metroid 1 retroactively. I absolutely adored the second game; basically all of the things that bothered me about the first one had been repaired, plus it was more intimate and atmospheric and unnerving. Some years later, when I went back to the first game, I understood it rather better.

I never played Super Metroid except through emulation. So. That was a while later, yet.

Oh, I did a better one. I'm afraid it's in Maine, though. I had to tinker with it for a while to get the palette the way I wanted it.

To me, Metroid 2 seemed to be much more about the hunt. The original seemed to be about exploration

Spider Ball.

Oh hell.

You can use the wall-door trick on those, y'know. Best bug ever?

The FDS version -- was that the official Japanese GBA release? If so, can you save and everything?
