Nah, it's just mediocre.
A game like Sonic 06 or Big Rigs is garbage. Other M at least plays fine.

I just played Metroid: Zero Mission (my first Metriod game, though not even close to my first Metroidvania - though I've never played anything in the Castlevania series either lmao) recently. Loved it. Playing Fusion now. I had a quick look at Super Metroid but ehhh, kinda felt clunky after Zero Mission, I'd be down to play a remake.

I've never been a Metroid fan. I don't hate the series, though.

People have been asking for a 2D canon Metroid for over a decade. Anyone complaining is definitely trolling or in the minority.

Ah, this incredibly detailed post explaining why I'm wrong has convinced me to reconsider my stance. I will now never play any game other than Super Metroid ever again. Maybe a cheeky quick run of Desert Bus when no one's looking, but that's it. Thank you for your valuable input, Conception616.

Probably because the genre it pioneered has been copied many times since Fusion came out. Also likely that many people on GameFAQs are young and don't know the series.

fight the controls for just a bit and you'll really enjoy yourself.
Or just reconfigure the button layout until it's comfortable.

You should try Am2r. It plays like zero mission and has a great world

its not the button layout, its just generally a floater game with different physics and no ledgegrab, its not hard to see why some people might have a hard time coming back to it if they played Fusion /ZM
I grew up on the game, and I still find myself having trouble adjusting to the physics if playing it after Fusion/ZM/AM2R/SR. But it's so very worth taking that time to adjust.

Super Metroid still has the best movement and physics of the 2D series. The only notable downside compared to the newer games is the absence of ledge grip but the game was designed without that so it's not really an issue.
