So with a little research I discovered a highly recommended rom hack blending aspects of Zero Mission into the basic Super Metroid data.Īnd for those of you sick of Metroid reviews, good news! Super Zeromission has cured me of my desire for Metroid the way an angry father cures his teenager of the desire to smoke by making him suck down an entire carton of Camels in an hour! But while I don’t exactly see the appeal in spending ten hours of my life reading about some ditzy teenager’s difficult choice between her torrid, wild affair with Legolas and her stimulating romance with Will Turner, programmers tend to keep themselves out of the story–often by keeping the story out of the game. Yes, I know that rom hacking only lies the width of a computer science degree away from fan fiction. I’d prefer to avoid that, so for a fresh, unsullied bout with 2D space pirates, I’ve resorted to something a little unorthodox, a ROM hack.
SUPER METROID ROM HACK PC
You laugh, but every three or four years, some poor, overworked teenager in Korea will spend three days straight in a PC Room playing Star Craft with nothing but ramen noodles and a haze of cigarette smoke for nourishment, and winds up dropping dead. Oh! Behind you! Look Behind you! I told you not to go in there! They find my body weeks later, reaching for Trauma Center to no avail. Eventually, trying to get that rush, I work my way up to speed…running, until all the time and energy I’ve spent on Metroid pay off with an aneurysm and I drop dead. So when I’ve run through all of them, I have no option but to increase my dosage and spend more time in the basement hunched over my obsession, trying to sate myself. Maybe I should seek help?) But as I mentioned last week, Nintendo has only released five 2-D Metroid games. (Wow…once again, I compare video games to drugs.
SUPER METROID ROM HACK SERIES
For those of you who actually enjoy the series (or any series for that matter), you know that a good game functions much like a gateway drug sure, it excites you at first, and maybe for a few times afterwards, but eventually the high wears off, causing you to smash your piggy bank, rifle your couch cushions and shakedown everyone you know for cash so you can branch out into similar, but harder relatives from the same family, trying to get that same fix. For anyone not into the series, I understand that you probably want to claw my eyes out, desperately waiting for me to do Mega Man or Onimusha or…I don’t know…Nintendogs or something. So I should apologize for the all-things-Metroid theme lately.
