4.5/5 ★ – Supergamerguy's review of Super Metroid.

(Revised) review from July 2021: Cons: - Some extraneous tech (Shinespark was rough and the wall-jump was especially unintuitive and clunky). - You can cancel a Space Jump by pressing Up on the D-Pad, which happens much too often on accident. - Some items are frustratingly hidden and almost impossible to find without a guide. Pros: - Everything else: Graphics, Music, Basic Gameplay (movement and controls), and Level Design were top notch. - The Grappling Hook was relatively well-designed too. Super Metroid is leaps and bounds better than the first two Metroid games, but it's not a game without flaws (despite what people seem to believe). However, those flaws don't break the game by any means, and it remains a great title through and through. Super Metroid makes my top 5 Metroidvanias list anyday. This is an easy recommendation for everyone.
