Super Metroid, then when you complete it get Zelda.

A Link to the Past is an excellent game... Has some of the best difficulty in a Zelda game, imo, so many items to discover, upgrades, dungeons are both great in number, size and difficulty and boss battles are epic and really fun (well frustrating at times but it's part of the challenge).

I can't comment about Metroid but I hear it's good... Get both if you can, if not, go with ALttP. ^__^ You won't regret it!

Super Metroid..... IMHO it is EASILY one of the best games ever made get it first!!!

Get aLttP, the game is much longer and should last you a lot longer before you feel the need to buy a new game, especially if you're into Zelda games.

It should hold you over until you have enough money to spend on Super Metroid.

damn it, apples and oranges... .. .. . .. ...

both is its best for their respective franchise

w/ Super Metroid, the music and setting engulf you within Samus’ universe in how truly alone you are... Just the music alone is eerie (especially in the watery and sandy area)

the story, the setting, this game is what got me into the series

w/ Link to the Past, it’s adventure in its purest... it has the most interesting things to do and things to have in that game... not to mention its diverse set of characters is freakin’ awesome

the story, the setting, this game is what got me into the series

Super Metorides un excelente juego de acción con el te mantienes picado hasta que logras los mejores porcentajes de items en el menor tiempo posible, pero una vez logrado lo anterior te aburrira.

Por otro lado, el Zelda ALttP tiene muchas más horasa de juego que el anterior, ¿pero qué puedo decir a cerca de un Zelda? siempre son mis juego favoritos Manuel.

Cualquiera que adquieras son una buena adición a tu colección!

Metroid all the way.

A Link To The Past is perfect get that.

If you are going to buy both of them... then u can't go wrong. Although i'll pick Metrod first if you plan to buy the other one soon. If not, then zelda, so you have time to play it. Metroid is shorter.

Anyway, both are great games. Again, you can't go wrong if you are going to get the other one later

I will add that if you played the NES Metroid, Super Metroid had a huge nostalgia factor since various places match the original game.
