There's also Blaster Master - which does have item and zone based progression with map exploration AND back tracking... not a metroidvania


Ugh, that game. Never beat it on the NES but did complete it years ago through emulation (before I fixed the 72 pin connector on my NES). One thing always bugged me about that, how it could be so linear for the first half and then expect you to go ALL the way back to the beginning to find world 4 I think it was. Who would even think of that?

Oh wait, wasn't there a small map in the manual? It's been a long time. One of the first 5 NES games I owned.
