I played AM2R for the first time this month, when the team released a patch and version for Android.
I always tried to play Metroid 2 on Gameboy, but never went past the first metroid, I don't know why but I always remember it as an action game, instead of a "metroidvania".
people told me Metroid2 was different and not that good, and it was like "you kill one metroid, you open a zone, you kill the other, you open a zone, and so on" I always felt like it was more linear.
Now I finally had the chance to play Metroid 2, and I loved it !
It's not what I thought, and it's as good as Super Metroid 3.
AM2R is really good, in all points. 16 bit graphic are amazing, sound, playability.
I really enjoyed playing a new fresh metroid game, not playing an old one again and again
I'm waiting for the next 2D metroid games now.
I'm sad, I got only 97% in 10 hours.
I spend 2 more hours returning to many places but didn't find 3 last items.
the map doesn't help, so it might be hidden areas without markers on the map, like fake walls instead of special breakable blocs.
I noticed there's a newgame+ and fusion mode now, with all areas already accessible from the start, it could be fun to try getting powers in the wrong order.
And it's funny how the baby metroid is helping around (or resuscitating enemies!).
