If you’re diving into the 'Metroid' series for the first time, I’d honestly recommend starting with 'Metroid: Zero Mission'. It’s a remake of the original NES game but with modern controls and visuals, making it way more accessible. From there, jump into 'Metroid: Samus Returns' or its fancier cousin 'Metroid Dread' to get a feel for the newer mechanics.

After that, loop back to 'Super Metroid'—it’s a masterpiece that holds up incredibly well, and playing it after the more polished titles helps you appreciate its influence. Save the Prime trilogy for later if you want to switch to 3D; they’re fantastic but feel like their own thing. Ending with 'Metroid Fusion' ties everything together with its creepy atmosphere and tight storytelling.

Chronological order can be fun if you’re a lore junkie! Start with 'Metroid: Zero Mission' (the remake of the first game), then move to 'Metroid: Samus Returns' (a reimagining of 'Metroid II'). 'Super Metroid' comes next, followed by 'Metroid Fusion'. This order lets you follow Samus’s story linearly, and you’ll catch all the little callbacks.

But if you’re more about gameplay evolution, flip it—start with 'Super Metroid' to see where the hype began, then try the modern titles like 'Dread' to see how far it’s come. Either way, the Prime games are a side quest—play them whenever you crave a first-person twist.

For a mix of nostalgia and freshness, I’d say 'Super Metroid' first—it’s the gold standard. Then 'Metroid Fusion' for its tighter narrative, followed by 'Zero Mission' to see where it all began (but prettier). 'Samus Returns' and 'Dread' can wait until you’re hooked; their faster pace feels like a reward after the classics. And don’t sleep on 'Metroid Prime'—it’s a different vibe, but it’s like stepping into Samus’s helmet for real.

At yet another family gathering, Kirsten Weber's male assistant, Jordan Steele, is sitting in the seat that should be mine. I ask Kirsten, "He's sitting in the host's seat. Don't you have anything to say about that?" Kirsten shoots back impatiently, "Since you showed up late, don't blame someone else for taking your seat. There's an empty seat next to it. You can take it if you want. If you don't want it, then get out." I am about to speak when her inner thoughts suddenly flood into my mind. She is saying inwardly, "Honey, get angry already. Tell me you need me. Tell me you have to sit beside me. Prove that you love me. That's the only way I'll feel secure." This time, I do not give Kirsten what her heart desires. Instead, I lower my head and slowly remove my wedding ring. Calmly, I say, "Since you won't even save the seat for the man of the house, I suppose you don't need me anymore. Let's get a divorce, Kirsten."

What Are The Hidden Secrets In Métroid Dread?

4 Answers2026-07-02 22:30:56
Man, 'Metroid Dread' is packed with so many little secrets that make replaying it a blast. One of the coolest things I stumbled upon was the 'phantom cloak' sequence break—you can totally skip the E.M.M.I. encounter in Cataris if you nail a tricky shinespark maneuver early. It’s insane how much the game rewards precision movement. There’s also this wild hidden room in Ferenia with a Chozo artifact that hints at deeper lore, but you’d never find it unless you bomb every suspicious wall. And don’t get me started on the 'quick kill' strats for bosses. The Corpius fight can be ended in like 20 seconds if you sequence break to get the Storm Missiles early. The devs clearly designed this game with speedrunners in mind, weaving these hidden paths and exploits into the fabric of the world. It’s like every corner has something new to discover, even after multiple playthroughs.

How Does Samus Aran Fit Into The Métroid Storyline?

4 Answers2026-07-02 11:03:35
Samus Aran is the heart and soul of the 'Metroid' series, and her journey is as much about personal growth as it is about battling space pirates and parasitic aliens. From her origins as a survivor of a Space Pirate raid to her time training with the Chozo, every step of her life shapes the galaxy-spanning conflicts she gets drawn into. The first game established her as this lone bounty hunter, but 'Metroid Prime' and later titles peeled back layers—her connection to the Metroids, her rivalry with Ridley, and even moments of vulnerability like in 'Metroid Fusion' when she’s infected by the X parasite. What’s fascinating is how her role evolves from a silent protagonist to someone with real emotional stakes. 'Metroid Dread' finally gave her more agency in the narrative, facing her 'creator,' the Chozo, and confronting the truth about her enhancements. The way she balances being a near-unstoppable warrior with moments of humanization—like her maternal instinct toward the Baby Metroid—makes her one of gaming’s most complex heroines. I love how the series never spoon-feeds her backstory; you piece it together through environmental clues and brief cutscenes, which makes exploring her world feel so rewarding.

Is There A New Métroid Game Coming Out Soon?

4 Answers2026-07-02 04:08:09
Man, the buzz around a potential new 'Metroid' game has been driving me wild lately! Ever since 'Metroid Dread' blew everyone away with its tight gameplay and gorgeous visuals, fans have been starving for more. Nintendo's been pretty tight-lipped, but there are strong rumors about a 'Metroid Prime 4' still in development. Retro Studios is handling it, and given their track record with the Prime series, I’m cautiously optimistic. The Switch successor rumors make me think they might be holding it back for a next-gen launch, which would be both frustrating and exciting. On the 2D side, MercurySteam did such a killer job with 'Dread' that I wouldn’t be surprised if they’re already working on another installment. Samus’ adventures never get old, and with the resurgence of side-scrolling action games, the timing feels perfect. I’ve been replaying 'Super Metroid' lately, and it just reinforces how much this franchise deserves new entries. Fingers crossed for a Direct announcement soon!

Why Is Métroid Considered A Classic Gaming Franchise?

4 Answers2026-07-02 06:44:04
Metroid holds a special place in gaming history because it practically invented an entire genre. Before 'Metroid,' most platformers were linear, but this game threw you into a sprawling labyrinth of alien tunnels with no hand-holding. The thrill of backtracking with new abilities to uncover secrets felt revolutionary. It wasn’t just about shooting aliens—it was about isolation, exploration, and that eerie atmosphere. The soundtrack alone, with those haunting synth notes, made Zebes feel like a living, breathing deathtrap. Then there’s Samus. A female protagonist in a era dominated by male heroes? Mind-blowing. And the twist at the end—peeling away the armor to reveal her identity—was gaming’s first iconic 'wow' moment. Later entries like 'Super Metroid' refined the formula with tighter controls and richer world-building, while 'Metroid Prime' proved the series could thrive in 3D. Even today, indie devs chase that same magic, but nothing replicates the chill of hearing an unseen Metroid screech in the dark.

How To Unlock All Endings In Métroid Prime?

4 Answers2026-07-02 07:04:32
Man, unlocking all endings in 'Metroid Prime' is like piecing together this epic sci-fi puzzle where every scan, every hidden item, and every boss fight feels like a step toward Samus’s full story. The game’s endings depend mainly on your item collection percentage and how quickly you finish. For the best ending, you’ll need to snag 100% of the items and beat the game under 4 hours—which is tough but so satisfying. The intermediate endings kick in if you hit 75%+ items or finish between 4–10 hours. And if you take your sweet time or skip too many upgrades? You’ll get the barebones ending. Pro tip: Use the Wavebuster and Plasma Beam combos to melt bosses faster. The Phazon Mines are where most players slow down, so memorize those layouts! Also, don’t ignore the lore scans! They don’t affect endings directly, but uncovering all the Chozo lore and Pirate data feels like unlocking a secret layer of the story. I once missed a single missile expansion in the Phendrana Drifts and had to backtrack for hours—worth it, though, when that 100% screen popped up. Speedrunners might scoff, but I love the grind for completion.
