Super Metroid aka Metroid 3 is the third entry into the Metroid franchise, following Metroid on the NES and Gameboy. It is perhaps one of, if not the greatest action-adventure platformer of all time. It certainly stands out as one of the best entries in the franchise, in the entire SNES library and easily one of my all-time favorites.
A little info via Wiki:
Super Metroid (スーパーメトロイド Sūpā Metoroido?) is an action-adventure sci-fi video game and the third game in the Metroid series; the introduction alternatively refers to the game as Metroid 3. It was designed by Nintendo Research & Development 1, programmed by Intelligent Systems, and published by Nintendo for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System video game console. The game was released in Japan on March 19, 1994, in North America on April 18, 1994, and in Europe and Australia on July 28, 1994.
Super Metroid was directed and written by Yoshio Sakamoto, and produced by Makoto Kano with Gunpei Yokoi serving as general manager. The game’s story follows bounty hunter Samus Aran as she attempts to retrieve a stolen Metroid from the Space Pirates.
Due to its detailed and colorful graphics, cinematic elements and progressive, distinctive gameplay the game received universal acclaim, being considered today as one of the greatest video games of all time…
