Metroid Samus Returns
SCORE: 65
I have played a variety of Metroid video
games over the years. We have not reviewed many of them here at Family
Friendly Gaming. I am thankful Family Friendly Gaming purchased a copy
of Metroid Samus Returns on the Nintendo 3DS after the failures of the
PR and Marketing firm for this particular product.
We go back to the planet of SR388 to kill off forty Metroids. They were
discovered underground. The issues families can have with Metroid Samus
Returns is violence, blood, lack of attire, enticement to lust, idols,
and more. Parts of Metroid Samus Returns can be difficult due to the
controls. Which felt too loose to me. Especially the targeting. There is
nothing more frustrating that constantly missing an enemy. Then missing
the Melee Counter to stun them.
I died early and often in Metroid Samus Returns. I would go on runs
where I did good and stayed alive for a bit. Metroid Samus Returns lets
you continue if you die so generally not a lot of progress is lost. I
still had to redo things since saves are too few and too far between for
my tastes. Why can’t we just save everywhere? The technology for doing
that has existed for decades Nintendo.
If you take too much damage you can die, and go back to your last save.
There is another option. You can grind for health. Keep killing the
enemies and collecting health from them. Eventually you will get back to
full health. The 2D side scrolling levels in Metroid Samus Returns are
augmented by the 3D cut scenes.
Metroid Samus Returns generally looks nice, and sounds good. The
violence is one of the main issues in Metroid Samus Returns. There are
some areas that are really populated with enemies. Metroids take awhile
to kill off in Metroid Samus Returns. They also change what can hurt
them based on what attacks you have unlocked. I value Metroid Samus
Returns at fifteen dollars brand new. That is my personal price opinion
on this product.
