February 2018 Game of the Month: Metroid

[A Former User]

Sometimes I feel like this game could have easily been called Metroid: Missile Management Simulation. Until you get 15 or so missile capacity, you are constantly juggling between having and not having enough to open red doors.

@livefastcyyoung you can get a bunch of them at Norfair. When you go down to Norfair with the elevator, go all the way to the right and then go up and enter the second door on the left. There are 3 missiles powerups there. ;-)

Guess what guys? I am REALLY not good at this game. Hahaha.

The door is wide open for picking for March. If you can beat this game, or hell, maybe whoever gets the most cheevos for it, will probably be picking for March. Certainly won’t be me!

I'm not sure if anyone beat Metroid and got the achievement, If so, let me know and disregard this post.

Here is a short list of ideas for the March GOTM. But I am open to other suggestions.

@lilbud hey wait! I'll win this round and choose the next game! I hope to get that cheevo tonight...

And I wanna play Super Mario 3 next month :)

[lilbud]

@meleu Thats why I said disregard that post if anyone won. Been busy IRL and didn't know if anyone won. So which version of Mario 3? NES or SNES?

[mitu]

@lilbud Nes, of course :)

[meleu]

@mitu answered for me. He is a NES fanboy and likes shell scripts... Is it my alt account and I didn't even know?!

[lilbud]

OK, The March GOTM will be Mario 3 (NES) as picked by @meleu. I might post the thread tomorrow or Wednesday, just to get it out of the way.

[meleu]

Better late than later.
