I was expecting Chrono Trigger, or Super Mario RPG...or something along those lines. I guess Metroid is a good pick.

Super Metroid is a hella of a pick. This game was revloutionary and probably still the best 2D game of all time.

Actually, no, it isn't. In ever respect, new games are better than old games. The graphics, sounds, physics, and stories of the new games are superior to that of the ones from the golden days. What makes games like SM seem so special and amazing in our minds are the fodn memories we have of playing it back in the day, aka 'nostalgia'.

You'll probably be hard pressed to find a game that's as much fun for you now as this one was when you first played it. I feel the same way about lots of games, but if you take a real unbiased look, Super Metroid has been technically surpassed in every aspect by this point.

Not really, most retro games are unplayable trash by todays standards, not all but most. Take of the retro rose tinted glasses, it really wasn't that good.

I lost my copy. It's probably the game I've beat the most times in life. Or close to.

Wrong! It's a perfect blend of gameplay. Most games today are over complicated and often dont flow together. If thats your opinion fine but don't make it like it's a fact. It's all about how you feel.

Considering I generally dislike Metroid games in general...

Gears of War, Wario Ware Smooth Moves, Earth Defense Force 2017, Ninja Gaiden Sigma, Dead Rising... you want me to keep going?

Also Tank Wars!

Old games are fun. I still find myself playing Herzog Zweii on the Genesis.. If that doesn't come out on the Virtual Console or XBLA I'll be massively upset... It is the original RTS games with mechs.

:|.....right

Here, let me make it simple for you;

1) New games have better graphics; FACT

2) New games have better physics; FACT

3) New games have better sound; FACT

4) New games DON'Thave a tiny story that isn't explained in the little booklet that came with the game; FACT

I agree and I'm 30 years old and have been gaming since we got our Pong unit in 1979 and 2600 in 1981.

If old games were and are the end all be all of gaming, why does it continue to exist and evolve? If GoldenEye was the best shooter on colsoles, why did it evolve past there?

Just because we don't sare your view does not make our POV any less valid.

Gaming matures and evolves for a reason.
