Best Metroid Poll

There's like a whole aesthetic that could be wrought from the start of Super Metroid when Samus lands on Zebes and it's all bleak and foggy and ominous. I'd love to start a thread about music/films/art that inadvertently allude to this but I'm worried it might be a little too esoteric.

Just started playing Super Metroid on a SNES emulator and I'm having a blast. The atmosphere alone is GOAT.

Gonna take adam's advice on SM + Hawkwind. Also weed.

Which emulator?
I've only played the OG one

Super Metroid is amazing.

Can anyone recommend a snes emulator for mac? Or are they generally better on pc?

I'm using snes9x for Win10, looks great with scanlines + bilinear filtering turned on. Can't help for mac, sorry

OpenEmu looks promising, will try that one

i can vouch for openemu on mac

super metroid is the best

the 3 great metroid games imo are super metroid, zero mission, and the first metroid prime

first metroid prime is sublime

i loved the first NES Metroid so much as a kid. can't beat that atmosphere. Metroid Prime i always avoided until last year cos 3D but it turned out to be surprisingly really good and faithful to the series. haven't played Zero or the other GBA games.

definitely check out Another Metroid 2 Remake (AM2R). it is a fan game but it is the best fangame i have ever played. it is a remake of the Gameboy Metroid 2 (which always suffered from the tiny screen) but with Super Metroid graphics/gameplay.
