    Super Metroid is free and runs on anything with a screen and buttons at this point. It’s also an all time great game, play it already.

    I don’t have a dog in the Ori v HN fight, having played neither.

        Enjoy!

        There’s kind of a reason not to play the original NES Metroid, it sucks in a very limitations of 8 bit hardware way. Fortunately, there’s Zero Mission.

          Ah fair enough! I’ll skip NES Metroid then! (Thanks for saying it, I have a bad habit of wanting to always start with the first title in a series, even if that’s a really bad idea)

            Zero Mission is a remake of NES Metroid for the GBA with an extended ending. If you really want to play the classic Metroid games in order I’d do Zero Mission, AM2R, Super Metroid, then Metroid Fusion.
