What's wrong with Metroid ?

No 45 degree aiming with your gun. Too dark no sense of direction confusing maze labyrinth like levels, tedious platforming, horrendous amount of backtracking, annoying enemies that you can't seem to shoot, respawning enemies. Generally not really fun for most picking it up today. I haven't really heard much outside of the rhetoric "I played this game as a kid".
It's graphically impressive, sounding, and  atmospheric. But this does not make a good game, neither does being iconic.

Metroid: Zero Mission fixes that. It overhauls the entire game with Super Metroid-esque controls and graphics.

Duck!  Here comes the hate! 

I totally agree though. I think FF3 (or FF6 if you want to be a dick about it) is a great game. It's one of my favorite RPGs of all time. The rest though?  I can go without hearing the words "Final Fantasy" ever again. 

Full disclosure: I've only played 1, 2*, 3*, and 7.  The others may be fantastic.

*I played the US releases. That's how they were numbered, and that's what's on the label.  You can call them 4 & 6, but I won't.

I actually like 9 better than 7. It's worth a try.

FF8 I just couldn't get into at all.

That's like Judging Resident Evil remake for game cube based on the very first PS1 version of the game.

One is the first of it's kind and the best they could do as pioneers in the genre.

The other is the developers showing how badass they are now that they've caught up to technology. :)
