I'm playing Super Metroid for the first time!
12 years ago
Having grown up on the PC, I've never played Super Metroid before. Recently, the game suddenly landed in the hands of a large number of stupid people via its release on the Virtual Console, which led to a load of posts on Twitter by idiots who can't get past the first obstacles - or so it seemed... to prove or disprove this, I decided to play through the game myself to see if I could do any better.
I've put together five episodes so far, through a lot of experimentation and panicked screaming, and I've got up to getting some super-bombs and the ice beam. I aim for about an hour or so of gameplay edited down to twenty-minute episodes, as exploration-based games compress down amazingly when you edit them down to just the interesting or relevant bits (particularly with me at the controls).
Wish me luck!

I guess I have played and finished it about 20 times by now.
Have fun and good luck!
Here is a small tipp:
Practise the wall-jump! It will give you items much earlier than usual. And it is a great way to surpass obsticles.
You have fun out there, David! Wishing all the best for you! :D
