Classic NES Series: Metroid Reviews

GameSpot Reviews

  1. Nostalgia won't save you from the frustrating room layouts or the constantly flickering graphics.

  2. It's easy to see how certain aspects of Metroid's design made it a classic, but 18 years later, the overall package just doesn't measure up to today's action adventure standards.

  5. it's a classic but that doesn't make it a great or fun game. I own it for the sake of owning it not because I love it.
