I wasn't aware that Fusion had that much criticism leveled at it to begin with. I thought reactions to it were enormously positive, and resulted in positive sales that eclipsed Super Metroid.

I'm not aware of how he handles criticism, though I agree that it ultimately won't matter.

It certainly felt unorthodox, in spite of being an essential clone of Super Metroid as far as gameplay went. Now i don't recall critical response at all because i wasn't paying any attention to the gaming media back then, but it seemed to me that the response was lacklustre, especially compared to Prime (but given that Prime has never been surpassed in gaming altogether, that's not anything to be ashamed of)

It did pretty all right at 92, though its 44 reviewers aren't listed for some reason. Not like Metroid Prime, but it was still enormously highly rated, especially for a handheld game.
