As far as action/adventure games go, this is the ultimate classic, plus who knew that Samus was a female....great twist!!!

  Excellent game for an excellent system
Review created: 08/26/08

I used to own the old NES, and when I had previously repurchased another one, I wanted to get the good old games for it as well. Metroid was in that list. I enjoy it alot, though it's very difficult at times with the primitive programming. Good game, get a copy if you have an NES. 'Nuff said.

  Used copy of Metroid on the NES
Review created: 08/19/08

The Game cartridge works like a gem in my Nintendo Entertainment System. However, it didn't stand up well in my Oester toaster system.

Just kidding.

Could you imagine?

I digress. The only complaint i have is cosmetic as the Sticker label on the game cartidge is in a peeling state. only slightly.

I enjoyed playing this classic years ago on the NES and it's still fun years later. There are so many areas to explore on Planet Zebes that it will keep gamers engaged for hours.

  Metroid is a must have nintendo title
Review created: 04/18/08

1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

I remember playing this weird but addicting game 20 years ago. It was full of mystery, adventure, and assumed the player was intelligent enough to figure out many things on their own. And there were more secrets hidden throughout the game than any other title I had played before it. When I finally did get to the final face off with the mother brain it was like I was going head-to-head against a truly evil and worthy nemesis. And that's what made me decide to grab this game again for another try at this retro classic. Thumbs up from me.

  The first action game
Review created: 10/02/07

stian7 ( 6 )

If you are a collecter, this the game. If you love action and exploring, this is the game. If you love good game play, this is the game. Do you have to much spare time, this is the game.

It's a perfect classic! Btw. If you buy this game and love it, be sure to check out Super Metroid for the Snes. You wont find it cheap, but it will be worth every penny.

  More Than I Expected

I heard about this game both pro and con so I decided I'd give it my own acid test. I found it to be a fascinating and challenging game and I'm not sorry I bought it. Like most games of its kind, it can drive you nuts, but what's a game without challenge? I'd recommend it to anyone who likes adventure games.

  Metroid - (old school) Nintendo (NES)
Review created: 11/18/06
by:
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

The classic NES Metroid stands as one of the pinnacle games on any system created by Nintendo, five platforms together. As far as the gameplay goes, for the 2 people in the world who would be interested but have not played metroid, this Metroid is an action adventure. At the start you are armed with a small gun connected to your arm and you are able to roll into a small ball and maneuver through a futuristic planet. As the game progresses you armorer and weapons advance while finding secret passage ways that bring you closer to destroying the final boss: the Mother Brain. This game can be difficult to find your way through but with a few helpful guides you will have no problem. If you find Mario Brothers difficult then this game with easily be an impossible challenge. In the end your character is still the smoothest space pirate fighting babe in history, yes I did say babe.

  NES gaming classic METROID
Review created: 10/22/06
by:

When this came out it was like nothing seen before and like super mario bros many a kid sat and played for days in awe getting wrapped up in the story and character. If you were born after this game was made, don't bother buying it you will never appreciate it for what it was. I love the direction video games have gone but for me classics like this will never go out of style. Unlike the new game systems that come out one after the other every couple years this is when new game systems were a rare occassion and were huge jumps over the previous systems capabilities.

  The game that started it all....
Review created: 07/04/06

Wow...Super Mario Bros. opened the door to adventure games on the NES. Metroid blew that door off its hinges with a Missile. The ability to wander around a planet gathering weapon upgrades and other items while defeating the Space Pirate leaders and delving deeper into the planet. A game like this was never witnessed before on the NES and many gamers loved its easy control and in depth gameply. Today not many people appreciate the influence these great old games had now that games like Resident Evil 4 and Metroid Prime have taken us to great places and the Wii is on the horizon but I believe we should look at Metroid and Kid Icarus and Super Mario Bros and remember where New Super Mario Bros, Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, and Super Smash Bros. Brawl originally come from.

  The Metroids begin their conquest here.
Review created: 12/03/02
by: StarSoldier1 -- a member of Epinions

Pros:
One of the greatest games of my youth! Nuff said!

Cons:
You can't duck plus you can only fire in three directions.

For my 100threview here on Epinions.com, I wanted a game that not only changed my life but also the face of action games as we know it. The choice was a simple one, especially with the recent comeback of the series in this 2002 holiday season. The legendary first Metroid started right here on the original Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) way back in 1987, although this is only a single Meg 8-bit game with outdated NES graphics and all but it's still one of the greatest adventure games ever made and I'm gonna tell you why. M510 In the game you play the role of Samus Aran, an lone bounty...

  the most over rated classic game
Review created: 10/24/07
by: tommy_lop -- a member of Epinions

Pros:
free exploration and a large dungeon

Cons:
frustrating, no map, repeat rooms.

I got the original Metroid for my 8th birthday and I couldn t quite understand it has a kid, so I loan it to my cousin when my NES broke and he ended up selling it. A few years later when I got my NES fixed I saw the re-release of Metroid for 20 bucks and decided to try it again, after all I did get heavily into Super Metroid, I still diden t like it. And after having it force down my throat in Prime and in Metroid Zero Mission I sat down with a game guide map and finally beat it start to finish without cheat codes, and all of my criticisms of the game are still here. It s not that Metroid is.

  Metroid: An Action-Packed Adventure
Review created: 07/18/02
by: tprules14 -- a member of Epinions

Pros:
Creative, Addictive, Fun

Cons:
It's underrated (I believe)

Metroid is one my favorite games for the Nintendo. It is extremely original, and amazingly addictive, but for some reason, underrated - it did not receive the the attention it deserved. If you haven't played this game before, you owe it to yourself to look past the 1980s Nintendo graphics and discover a great game. You play the role of Samus Aran, a soldier sent to the planet Zebes to destroy the metroid population. Metroids are small, reproductive alien forces that could prove to be extremely powerful and dangerous. You, as Samus, must traverse through a variety of environments throughout...

  Metroid for Nintendo
Review created: 01/23/07
by: cheko252 -- a member of Epinions

Pros:
Great shooter, storyline,

Cons:
no shooting direction, no ducking, bad jump skills

Metriod started a huge series of continuing games. It was a great shooter, despite the 3 direction shooting and the no ducking. But it came out when games were only side scroller and metroid threw in the side and backwards scroller. The concept started a huge craze, even though it wasn't the first game to do so.
