Description
Metroid (1987 in North America) introduced Samus Aran, the bounty hunter sent to planet Zebes to stop the Space Pirates and Mother Brain. Players who finished quickly enough discovered that Samus is a woman, one of gaming's famous reveals.
The world is one big maze you open up with new abilities like the Morph Ball and missiles, an idea that defined the series and a whole genre. The North American version uses a password system to continue your game.
A tough, atmospheric single-player game and the start of the Metroid story that continues in Super Metroid.
