In Metroid Samus Returns there's this scanner ability that allows you to see destructible blocks and discover a portion of the map. Using it is completely optional since you can pretty much do the same thing the old fashion way with bombs and power bombs. But when core fans knew about this they saw it as something terrible. Like... how could Nintendo dare to give the player the choice of playing like they always did or use something that is much more convinient? Shame on you, Nintendo! Only true hardcore gamers are allowed to play Metroid and the only possible way to do it is by laying bombs in every fucking square of every room!

 

Huh. No wonder the Metroid franchise is getting smaller and smaller...
