Why is this the only Nintendo developed game I enjoy? I have played every retro Zelda, yes, because on paper it might be something I enjoy, but after finishing them I'm still always disappointed by the lack of interesting world and locations, wimpy hero, pointless magic spells, and focus on puzzles
>>12081224>complaining not about the quality of puzzles but the mere presence of themi think you may be too stupid for video games.
>>12081224You don't like Punch-Out? I thought everybody liked Punch-Out. Nor any 3D F-Zero game? Nor DK Junior Math??!??
Metroid is the closest thing Nintendo has to an "adult" franchise. It's more moody in general and sometimes, like with Other M, it goes into full-on drama.
>>12081231NTA, but i like a lot of nintendo games, but none of the ones you mentioned
>>12081231I tried to like fzero a long with other racers but I'm not really interested in non combat vehicle simulation
>>12081243I absolutely adored Other M growing up. I was so confused when I eventually got internet and saw what everyone else thought of it
>>12081224Nintendo mega fans and Nintendo themselves have a tendency to drastically over-estimate the quality of their games. You get two fans in a thread suddenly you got a party and you're the odd one out.
>>12081224play her other games, they're all real solid except other m
>>12081280If you want bullets and stuff fair enough but F-Zero X and GX are very much combat games. I love knockin dudes off the track, personally
>>12081224Do you even like retro gaming?
>>12081334Yeah Nintendo just mostly offered platformers and they all bored me compared to the competition that all had to try and be different to Nintendos more basic approach , from MegaMans weapons system and more engaging bosses, to Sonics pinball physics, to Rocket Knights charge n burst gameplay, I just always wanted something more from a platformer than jumping on guys
nintendo bad
>>12081342They did also make Super Mario Strikers. And Devil World. You don't like Kirby's Dream Course??? Listen man, Mario is MISSING, you don't want to find him?!?
>>12081227nintendo's best games are their early puzzle games
>>12081243Requires more patience to play through
>>12082549I do not like puzzle
Why did they design it with d-pad up to arrest sideways movement while jumping? Apparently the d-pad in my controller has been degrading as I play and is now giving me shittons of phantom up inputs which, because of this nonsensical control scheme choice, means wall jumping and space jumping are basically broken. This is actually kind of insane.
>>12081224Why would anyone know or care about your personal preference? Stop being a narcissist.
>>12086267Hold the fuck up. I just tried using arrow keys and this shit still isn't working. What the actual fuck?
>>12086267>>12086284Okay so the way it works in this game is just fucking retarded. Other games just let you keep jumping, The manual says "just after Samus peaks in a somersault jump" but it's actually several frames after that as you are falling but if you're too late then you just plummet back to ground. It's also all fucky about changing direction in air and you can't bonk a ceiling or you just drop.I came to Super after playing Zero Mission and AM2R and I really can't understand why people seem to hold this in such high regard. Pretty much every aspect of it is kinda shit.
>>12081224>the lack of interesting world and locationsThis is the one aspect where Zelda bests out Metroid the hardest. Like, I really like SM and think the overall design of the game is fantastic and very unique, but it isn't better than what Zelda offers at its best.>I have played every retro Zelda>finishing themI'm going to have to contest you on that. So you've fully played through, and finished, The Legend of Zelda, Adventure of Link, LttP, Link's Awakening, Ocarina, Majora, Oracle of Seasons AND Ages? I'm not expecting 100%/second quest completion or anything. You should be able to see that "Wimpy hero, pointless magic spells, and focus on puzzles" absolutely doesn't apply to something like AoL.I know it sounds like a catch-22, like "oh, you've beaten those games, so how could you possibly not like them", but seriously, I have no idea what location in Super Metroid you think is supposed to be more interesting than something like Clock Town.
>>12086268>Don't discuss opinions on games hereGo back faggot >>12086308It's just precise window for timing, it takes more skill. You think this is hard? Play Shinobi games, where nearly every move has a split second window of correct timing This appeals to me, part of my enjoyment in games is having to master things, I don't like totally breezy experiences my first plays, and Super Metroid is easy enough anyway
>>12086406The problem is that you can't tell the difference between success and failure and the correct point is totally fucking obtuse. Difficulty has absolutely nothing to do with it.
>>12086348I just find Zelda locations stock. I like fantasy settings, but like give me something unique. Mortal Kombats living forest, dungeons that are actually foreboding and not more cutesy than old Disney movies idk, I know the top down view limits the artwork but for games where travelling and sight seeing is important I kinda like more detailed immersive environments Now ok, I've never played AoL, or the N64 ones because I just don't care for N64 games, but all the retro 2D Zelda I have beaten, most multiple times other than the original which I just never wanted to play again
Mario is fatKirby is gayFox is a furrySamus is pretty cool
Prime 2 is the greatest GameCube game but it's developed by retro studios not Nintendo so I don't know if it counts but do yourself a favor and play it
>>12086308>I came to Super after playing Zero Mission and AM2R There is your problem. SM has the best controls and physics but you will have to git gud.
>>12086417Nah I can do hundreds of walljumps etc without fail.
>>12088614All you gotta do is practice then. Keep at it
>>12090096I am not op. Read it again. But yes you are right its simply practice. Once you have the muscle memory SM plays best. No other metroid has so much stuff you can do with the movement. Trick jumps blabla
>>12088270Kirby is an Eldridge horror to me. The eater of worlds.
>>12090118>eldridge horrorOh OK yeah I guess he is gay
