I'm wondering how many people here have had the chance of playing the original on NES, becuase there are hardly any threads here!

The original was the first nintedo game that I ever played. My uncle had it and it was pretty much only game he had besides Zelda, Battletoads, and Mario. He played it a lot!!!

Have any of you still got an NES system? Mine is still in top notch shape, but I wish that I could find the remake of it that plays all the cartridges pretty much flawlessly! :nes:

my NES hasn't been played since i was about 6. its in my loft, as well as my SNES and ATARI stuff. i remember it playing pretty well. the first video game i ever played wasn't my metroid though, it was super mario.

No. I never did. I never even started to like metroid until about a year ago.

Until Prime Came out? Then you started to like it?

i've beat it about three times.

Played it on Prime and ZM, not on nes...

Prime came out in 2001. I didn't start liking metroid until 2003.

Oh, well... which game did you play first?

2003? jebus..

I don't even believe in Jebus (guy walks through my dorm hall with a really, REALLY big gun).

SAVE ME JEBUS!! :lol:

Sorry about the spam, but it had to be done :P

lol, i can resist the urge because i am more powerful! muahahahaha!! but seriously ms, 2003?! whoa.

I have played the NES metroid about 3 million times

I think I played Zero Mission first.

Well at least you played the remake of the original first. :lol:

I didn't notice that.

:D i ahve played the original but the first metroid i played was metroid prime :P

first one i played was metroid II

I've only played the remake of of it;zero mission,and started playing metroid 2001.

You do know that once you beat it you can play the original on ZM, right?

i have but now i have played it on gba because it is alot better on the gameboy

The only difference is that the pixels have been smoothed and you can save the password instead of writing it down. Maybe some of the glitches have been taken care of, but I doubt it.

I liked those glicthes.

fill me in on the cool glitches.

Um......duh?

:mellow: ?????

You can do the door jump for example. It is hard to do, but it is cool. If you go into a door at a certain point and you can get samus "stuck" there, you can jump and roll into the ball and just climb up. You would go into weird rooms that were a glich and they are called Secret Rooms.

And the creatures can go through the door with you and hurt, but maybe that was intentional. Some of the rocks would be miscolored along with some of the creatures.

If you shoot out a platform that one of the zoomers or other things that cling to the platforms, the creature will float there and shaking.

It's great :lol:

off topic: i need a GBA!!
ontopic: what the...?

You've never heard or done any of those, BP?

I LIKET GLICTHEZ!

My best friend has the NES game, I've watched her play it a few times and I've played it too. Nothin' beats the classics.

The best NES game I had was Super Mario Bros. 3 I didnt know Metroid existed until I got Super Smash Bros. for N64.

I havent played the original on the NES but I have used ROMS and the special mode on the Zero.

I only had a few NES ROMs.

I have played the game on GBA and Computer.

I played it on ZM, MP, and a rom. The rom was the most fun though because I could use Metedit on it. Metedit is awesome!
*vanishes to use Metedit*

The original metroid sucked.............. you start in the middle of a cave with no explanation and theres no story point, its like a huge maze.............

It was a challenge. They never thought you would need a map for it.

I first started my metroid gaming with MP.I was unknowing of other troids other than MF then I years later i got MZM it ruled then i got its original troid version.Then I got MP2 it ruled and by then i played every metroid game on rom cept the GCN ones.and my favorite was super metroid,it didnt need text to tell a story it told it through the gamplay,which is amazing.MP put me through a moral dilemma when I was reading so,me of the space pirate logs,and several times i viewed samus as the bad one but prime was always i thought it was evil put i may just be protecting its spawn or its territory,go figure.

WTF is Metedit?

It's a really awesome Metroid level editor. It hacks the rom and lets you move around and even change all of the tiles and enemies in the game. I would tell you where to download it, but the same site has some roms, and pointing to it publicly would be against the forum rules, so if you want it you'll need to PM me.
