    Order arrived securely packed and the Turbografx-16 game was almost mint, even better than described. The USPS claimed the package was delivered but had misplaced it in fact, only to return it to the seller after several weeks. The seller then went ahead to reship it to me once again at his own cost and communicated and supported me along the way. I recommend him without hesitation, buy with confidence!

    A Classic for Its Time

    Metroid is a groundbreaking non-linear adventure game that paved the way for many exploration games. It is still very fun to play, but it is very much a product of its time and hasn't aged particularly well. There is not an in-game map so finding your way around can be a headache, but finding a simple map online fixes this problem. Once you know where to go and what to do, this game can easily be finished in a day. It is probably more geared towards collectors or nostalgics of the 8-bit era, but it's still worth a visit for any gamer who wants to work through the series. For gamers who don't have the patience for older games, check out Super Metroid or Metroid Zero Mission. These are the same general gameplay and storyline with much improved graphics and control.

  • What an important and great game for the NES

    This game really takes me back to growing up as a kid playing with my friends. So obviously there is nostalgia value for me but it is more than that. What a great game for the NES! When I play this game and compare it to most other NES games it is so much better. The colors and characters are vivid. The gameplay and movement are extraordinary. The music has a genuinely creepy feel and is well orchestrated. You have to think and explore a relatively large world especially for an 8 bit game. It is challenging and fun. This might be the greatest NES game ever made. Everybody with an NES should have this game in their collection.

  • Great NES game

    This game is fun, challenging and full of secrets. If you’re new to collecting NES games this is a must have. The Metroid story and gameplay is great and if you like this game you’ll love the other Metroid games in the series. Metroid 2 for Gameboy and Super Metroid for the SNES are must haves as well. I feel the games get even better as they go on. This game comes in the yellow label and silver label, just an FYI it’s the same game just different release dates.

  • Picture didn't match the game received. Game label was scratch and a little bubbling. I got a good deal so I will live with it but not as described.

  • Best Game 1987

    Metroid is a great game. Although there aren’t any save stations like the later series, when you die, you respawn with all of your equipment. The only way to save is to use passwords, but otherwise, it’s a fairly challenging game with lots to do.
