Really, if you like Metroid and you don't mind the 3D perspective, or you like 3D action adventure games, this is a game you should get.

	Karolek12 posted 10/12/2018, 05:23 ExplodingBlock, This games sold better in Japan than in European countries. And for sure Japan is more west than you think. Music, movies, games - they love ''dark'' and mature things even more than Americans which like ''kawaii'' more than Japanese. US is more childish. So stop saying bullshits 'cause u don't know how pop culture in Japan looks like. Message \| Report

	Skullwaker posted 10/01/2015, 06:10 I need to play this. Like, now. I'd love for the Big N to release an HD remaster or at least put it on the VC but if I have to I'll track down the Trilogy. I've heard nothing but great things. Message \| Report
