First Game is the Best

I gotta say that I'm not a big Metroid fan. Tried a few of them but haven't finished any of them. Played most Prime and one of the GBA games. 

NES Metroid was the first one I tried. Felt it confusing and everything looked the same. Tried Super Metroid next and could not get used to the controls. Then Prime a lot later, liked it okey but have some sort of aversion towards the first person perspective. Played one of the GBA games for like 10 hours and found it really good, might return and finish it. 

I just cannot see anything the first Metroid does better than the rest of the series. So just asked what makes it the best in your opinion. 

Not sure why you care so much when you're not a big Metroid fan.  I can say if you've never played NES games on the original console with a CRT TV, then it can be hard to fully appreciate.

I do not care much, only enough to ask for your reasoning behind it, since it is a take I have never heard, just to broaden my understanding. But since you rather ask other questions instead of providing any reasoning my guess is that you have none, or at least no reasoning you know yourself good enough to articulate. 

I have played my fair share of Nes games on the original hardware. The first games I ever played was on the NES. SMB1, SMB3, Ice Climbers, Excitebike, TMNT and The first Zelda are all games I tried on the original hardware before testing any later games. SMB3 I still love.
