Just finished it for the first time - ever. I'm not sure why I never really played it before.

Anyway, I was a shade over 6 hrs, with abut 70% completion. I was missing a beam, apparently, too. I got Charge, Ice, Wave, and Plasma.

A lot of people miss the Spazer, actually. It's one of those items that's rather easy to find but also easy to miss if you aren't looking for it.

I think the very first time I beat Super Metroid, my time was 6 1/2 hours with a dismal 49% of items. I chalk that up to being young and not understanding the Metroid universe. :)

I remember that one from Metroid II. It kinda disappeared after this game, I guess- it would make a cool "shotgun" type weapon in Prime, like the Light Beam's special attack.
