Metroid (NES) - stumped

<< < (8/8)

NWR_DrewMG:
Admittedly, I played through Metroid with the help of this book, meaning that I had the maps in front of me as I played.  I don't see any shame in doing that. It didn't diminish my enjoyment of the game at all.

Oblivion:
y can't metroid crawl?

Aside from both games (Super Mario Bros., Metroid) having clunky controls and terrible jumping mechanics, sure. Mario has too much momentum when he runs, and Samus feels too floaty.
 
Super Mario World nailed Mario's jumping physics, and Super Metroid nailed Samus's agility.
