Ever since it's launch on the NES back in 86, Metroid has been a video game franchise that gamers want more and more of - and the SNES was no exception!
Samus Aran must retrieve the stolen Metriod from the
Space Pirates!
As No 3 in the series, this action packed game in the Metriod mould was 'something else' on the SNES. It took nearly 2 years to develop and that means passion, time, heart and soul went into making this classic. Again, the legend that is Gunpei Yokoi played a hand in it's development - acting as an overseeing General Manager at the time of it's development.
The gameplay was a scrolling side shooter, but with many cutsscenes - involving the Metroid Lava which was now mega huge! Samus Aran (our Heroine) must retrieve the stolen Metriod from the Space Pirates on the Planet of Zebes. Samus Aran sure packs a punch - with power ups and armor and weaponry as well as the Space Jump nothing gets in her way!
