I actually don’t know the way you’re supposed to beat Super Metroid “correctly.” I’ve always done what I ended up learning was a major sequence break resulting from a bunch of bomb jumps to get the power bomb early, and use that to get some other stuff that allows me to beat the game out of order.
I also never start Metroid Prime without immediately getting the double jump. I used to be up there on speed running that game. I don’t play the player’s choice or switch versions whenever I decide to crack it out. The original was literal perfection.
The online play is garbage. I played in H1 tournaments around the US back when it was good and would love for them to do it better than they did with their remake. The remake actually remade Halo 1 PC, not the Xbox version.
