    Super Metroid was a great game. I think the best part was the beginning, though. Up to, I guess, the end of the first boss battle. By which I mean Kraid, not the Chozo statue fight.

    Don't you just walk through an empty ship and then fight Kraid?

    I liked where you get the super dash and just run through dudes and then flyyyyyyyy

    Also, that's no ship...it's a space station.

    Unless you mean the crashed vessel on the planet, but that's Phantom or Phantos or whatever, and that's the boss after Kraid.

    Kraid is right around when you first discover Norfair (lava zone) and you can get the high-jump boots right before battling him, but you can't go much further because the heat of Norfair drains your energy unless you are wearing the Varia suit (which is what Kraid is guarding).

    Oh yeah, shit, I totally forgot about that one.

    For some reason, I only think of the four major bosses. The early Ridley fight, the Chozo statue, and the Plant thing...I sometimes just forget them altogether.

    See, there's another boss I forgot about. I don't want to label the game as "forgettable," but I do seem to forget a lot of it. I guess I want to call them mini-bosses or something. There are really four major boss battles in that game.

    EDIT: FIVE major boss battles, what the fuck is with my head today? Four bosses plus, of course, Mother Brain's two stages and then the escape sequence.

    If you can get your hands on it, and I mean IF (thank you, TDOT), it is an extremely worthwhile system. No, there aren't a lot of games. However, I have not had so much colaberative gametime on one device since the genesis. If you don't like to play with other people, forget it.

    I must have pretty low standards for games, since Wii has had plenty for me. Plus barely enough time to play the ones I have anyways. Wii Sports, Zelda, Paper Mario, Sonic & the Secret Rings, Trauma Center, Marvel Ultimate Alliance and WarioWare. Theres even more games I wanted but cant justify buying yet due to lack of funds+time, like Metal Slug Anthology, that DBZ fighting game, RE4, and Elebits.

    And thats not counting the half a dozen games I got off Virtual Console.
