  • Super Metroid takes the cake as my favorite game of all time.
    It was the game that introduced me to the Metroid story/universe that I fell so in love with. Part of what made this game so memorable and enjoyable for me (even now) is the music. The music perfectly captures the atmosphere and feel of the storyline while providing a rich sense of immersion as you explore the mysterious planet Zebes. Along with the game itself, this soundtrack will always have an esteemed place in my heart and has been paramount to my personal development, happiness, and sense of self. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I do! :)

Harder still to believe that I still fire up an emulator & do it all over again every couple of years because the game is _still_ that good, but the soundtrack is a part of that. It's a rare, perfect creation where game objective, imagery, art style, music, & gameplay conspire to create an experience that will literally last a lifetime.

      I have to agree with you, J W, because this game at it's time really was Metroid in it's prime and in many ways, still is. I say the same thing about Link to the Past, Super Contra, even Super Mario World and many more games where the Super Nintendo and it's time are concerned. It really was a unique time to be alive in and sadly, I don't think we'll ever have that experience again. In my opinion, Super Metroid completely perfected the isolation and "the unexplained" or "mysteriousness feeling" you're supposed to experience with the Metroid games.

It had battle mechanics like a Mega Man game. It had a dark and ominous vibe like a Castlevania game. It had badass music/sound like a Final Fantasy game. And it had the nostalgia of the original Metroid. It was like all of my favorite games combined into one. What more could a 9 year old ask for?

    Super Metroid is one of the greatest games of all time in a series that has not been treated very kindly by it's own creators. Many series have gone through the same. Super Metroid is one of the few 2D games that really makes you feel emotion. From just the title screen, you already feel the tone of this game. This is not your run of the mill SNES game, no. This is not your average Super Mario game, or your Zelda. This is Metroid! Back then, very few would go to the lengths that Nintendo went through to make this masterpiece of game design, sound, and gameplay all combined. The game is very alien (pun entirely intended) to the norm of the 1990's SNES games, and I think it stands out much more than other games of the era. The title screen starts with ominous music, over text appearing as if it were typed in a computer. The screen moves about on the unit containing the last Metroid. There seem to be (presumably unconscious) bodies on the ground, and the screen then shows the Super Metroid logo. I saw this a long time ago, and I was hooked. Play this game more people, and maybe the series can get more love from the creators.

    A classic. Truly, a real classic, is what Super Metroid is.
    I was a kid when i first saw this game back in '98. I could only watch as my older siblings played and they never let me play it but i was so enchanted by it. Sadly, the SNES was sold before i even touched it. I mostly played in the N64 onwards. All those years in between i never forgot what the game was like. How Samus ran, the music, the environment, and yes, the Screw Attack. After that, I played all the games that came out. I played Prime 1 -3, Fusion, Zero Mission, Other M, Hunters, Pinball too! I also withheld myself from ever searching up gameplay of Super. It was really difficult but it didn't help out i was a dummy and didn't have internet access reliably till 2011.
    Fiinally, for the first time i played the game i longed for when it digitally released in the Wii. Holy shit, I felt like i finally got back a missing piece of my memories and childhood. Everything was as mysterious and beautiful as i had seen it. Honestly one of my happiest moments in videogames.

Nowadays, it seems like an awesome 2D video game, but don’t get it twisted: it made a massive impact. This is and remains one of the greatest games of all time.

    Super Metroid is still one of the most immersive and atmospheric games and game soundtracks to have ever been crafted.
    Even the Silent Hill games aren't quite on the same level because you're spending so much time in those games of that series perpetually terrified and thus in an instinctive fight-or-flight mode that prevents you from really soaking in the full sense of being alone on an isolated alien world.

    I first heard about Super Metroid after watching a fan made video of an anti piracy screen. They used "Wrecked Ship" as the theme in the background and once I heard it, it was instantly creepy and I wanted to know what it was from. I searched up the game. I learned it was one if the greatest games of all time, so I bought a cartridge of it. As soon as the theme of Samus Aran came on, I knew I was about to embrace on an epic journey...
    Fast forward to a few years later, I'm 19 years old and this is my favorite soundtrack and game of all time. Its insane how a game of this era is so breathtaking, jaw dropping and chilling all at the same time. I listen to the soundtrack at work almost every day. I remember the battle against Mother Brain, the way I was shocked when the Metroid restored Samus' health. That was incredible. At the end of the game, the end credits, I teared up a bit listening to the music. What a fucking incredible game. Thank you Nintendo
