Metroid

I love Super Metroid and Prime, hell I even enjoyed II and Fusion but good lord is the original a miserable experience. I might have liked this game if they had implemented a save feature instead of the world's longest password system. Having to restart the game at the beginning with only 30 units of energy every time I boot it up is horrible. Why do I need to spend so much time slowly stocking up on energy EVERY TIME I PLAY? Who thought that this would be fun in any way, shape or form? Also, why is there no map screen? The fanfare that this game receives baffles me to no end. That being said, I'm glad it was popular enough to spawn the much improved sequels and spin-offs (excluding Other M, but that's a story for another time).
