Rediscover the iconic “Metroid” in its Classic Series edition, re-released for the Nintendo Entertainment System in 1992. This special edition celebrates one of the most influential video games of the 1980s, bringing back Samus Aran’s original adventure with a new packaging design that honors its legacy.
“Metroid” introduces players to the interstellar bounty hunter Samus Aran as she navigates the hostile planet Zebes to stop the space pirates and their plans to use the life-forms known as Metroids for evil purposes. The game is celebrated for its non-linear gameplay and atmospheric exploration, setting a new standard for action-adventure games.
The Classic Series edition retains all the beloved gameplay elements that made “Metroid” a revolutionary title. Players explore a vast, open-ended world filled with secret passages, hidden power-ups, and dangerous enemies. The game’s innovative use of upgrades to access new areas and its combination of platforming, shooting, and puzzle-solving create a rich and challenging experience.
This reissue not only allows new players to experience Samus’s original mission but also provides collectors with a pristine version of the game in special packaging that distinguishes it from the original release. The Classic Series label is synonymous with Nintendo’s best efforts to preserve and celebrate their most iconic games, making this edition a valuable item for any collector.
