I’ve got so many pivotal points with the series in my personal history. So before prime and fusion came out my dad had 1, 2, and 3. The earliest memory I have would have been between 6 and 8 playing super Metroid after he bought it from Hollywood video. Could not get any further than Brinstar as I didn’t realize there was a run button and I couldn’t get over the breakable blocks.

My next memory comes from my dad buying me Metroid Prime when I was around 9 or 10 from blockbuster when they sold used games. Another one I couldn’t get too far in as a kid.

I then got Metroid fusion along with Simpson’s hit and run shortly after one of those came out. So Metroid fusion was the first one I actually got pretty far in and completed. It’s funny because I now beat Metroid fusion every year around Christmas time now as part of a tradition.

My final core memory of my formative years of Metroid would be playing Metroid 2 on gameboy and beating it even though the battery function was funky and would save and delete whenever it felt like it. Though it was funny to me because my dad never beat that one, but I did with the funky saving lol.

Needless to say I am super excited for prime 4.
