The problem with the first MP is that it has too much platforming. Thankfully fixed in the much superior sequels.
There's no such thing as being "more Metroid". The series has evolved (thankfully).
But yeah, the collect-a-thon in Prime 1 is by far the worst in the entire trilogy.

There absolutely is such a thing as being more Metroid. The series has devolved. Saying there's too much platforming in a platformer is a joke. It's not a problem; it's a core mechanic. If you don't like platforming, you shouldn't be playing Metroid. The collect-a-thon in every Prime was terrible, not just the first one. The temple keys in 2 were just as bad, for example.
And it wasn't "fixed" in the sequel. Fusion had just as much platforming as Super.

I did them in half an hour. Get better. ;) It's not nearly as cryptic as the first MP. Some of these artifacts are practically impossible to find without a guide.
Platforming is for 2D games, not for first person games. Read my post again.
Super Metroid didn't even sell that well and Nintendo still had a big fanbase then. It's another overrated classic.
Both Fusion and Zero Mission are better than Super Metroid anyway.
