Metroid thread? Metroid thread.

I'm currently playing Super Metroid, which I've still never finished despite starting it numerous times over the years. I just got the Ice Beam, and I need to say what's already been said countless times: this game is incredible so far. I just hope it doesn't drop off in the final hours like Prime did.

What's your favorite Metroid game/weapon/ability/romhack?

What are some other good retro Metroidvanias (other than SotN, of course)?

I thought Prime was all around fucking amazing, but after I replayed Super, I reconsidered some things and I think Super beats Prime by a bit for best control in a vidya ever, and very high replayability.

Metroid 1 I had a hard time with at first, but if you dedicate yourself to it, it can be a very exciting experience. Especially if you use as little outside help as possible.

And that's my Metroid knowledge thus far. (Except Prime 2, but that's not-retro).

How do you guys decide which game to play next? I'm doing this thing where I only play games that existed up to a certain year and then move on to the next year when I clear my backlog, I do this with movies and series also so it is like I'm time traveling, planning on expanding it with pron and comics as well to really catch the feel of the year.

It's really great, because I always know what to play or watch next and I discover a lot of shit that I missed over the years. As you can see in the pic right now I'm in 1994.

Splatterhouses. SH3 especially feels like a proper slasher flick.

Medievil 1 is comedic gothic.

X-Com makes you wanna kill yourself.

As someone who owns unmodded consoles and can't into modding myself, is it worth it to buy a PVM/BVM? The video output is absolutely superb but I wouldn't know where to begin connecting consoles. Is there a way to connect things like S-video etc for those consoles which don't support RGB natively (N64, NES)?
13 posts and 1 images submitted.

Most consoles support RGB, N64 is a trivial 15 dollar mod that's easier to install than a PS1 modchip. NES really isn't worth it, just emulate or run composite.
>>
I've yet to see a PVM that can't do composite (older models may not do S-video.) With a BVM you'd have to make sure it has the NTSC card (that second input from the right) because that's what handles composite and Y/C. That said quit being a baby and learn to solder it's not hard.
>>
>>3890619
Alright so maybe I'll be able to mod my N64 but how do I hook things up to a monitor like this? Do I need RGB-BNC adaptors or what
Also no idea about sync or any of that

No, those secret rooms I circled. In the reverse, there is a Katana in there. It's a nice weapon and not super broken like the end game Katanas.
