Since this community is new I wanted to spark some discussion.

I’ve been a fan for years and used to frequent forums for the series back in the day. I learned about Metroid from a friend back when I was in elementary school (probably around 2004-2006 I honestly can’t remember). I played Fusion and eventually Zero Mission on my GBA.

When I was in middle school I learned about Super Metroid ROM Hacks and watched tons of let’s plays of them back then. Eventually I got Super Metroid myself on Wii VC and got to play a bit myself.

After that I didn’t branch out too much. I only really played Prime 1 and did play AM2R when that released. I still enjoy coming back to the series though.

What’s your experience?

    I don’t even remember how I got my hands on Zero Mission, I was like 8-9 years old. And it blew my mind. It was an incredible experience. I later got Fusion, and the fight against Nightmare was so scary but also so hype. I remember playing it at my Grandma’s while everybody was already sleeping.

    I played Super and AM2R when I was considerably older, though I kept replaying ZM and Fusion throughout my teenage years.

    I have never played a Prime game, though. The mix of the Halo-style 3D shooter, and then not being canon has always put me off. But I’m aware that they’re very good games.

    So I guess I’ve been a fan for most of my life already.
