Finally playing through Metroid Fusion, I had it as a teen and fell off. I wanna knock this out before trying dread.

Nothing beats Existential Dread...
@jongracey.bsky.social · Mar 24
Yessss love this one, still gives me chills

Does that GBA have a backlit mod?
@error697.bsky.social · Mar 25
Is that an original gameboy advance or is it a modified gameboy advance with a backlight? If it's retrofitted with a backlight then that's awesome.

be careful, very spooky
Pepe Bumbo · Mar 24
Good call, the plot really builds off Fusion

I just finished replaying it, have fun!!

Are you even able to hold that effectively
Noctus · Mar 25
Loved Dread. Could it have been better? Sure it could have. But for what it was. I just enjoyed havibg a new side scroll Metroid.

You're in for a treat broski 🔥🔥🔥

Finished this on a modded Vita a few years ago, a toss up between that and Super Metroid as my favourite one. It's a great playthrough, it doesn't outstay it's welcome.

Oh get ready for SO MUCH FUN
HOT TOR GO! · Mar 24
Oh man. Excited for you to get to Dread. It's so fucking good.
McWonderballs · Mar 24
This is the Metroid game that I think has the most Horror influence worn on its sleeves. This has 2 of my favorite bosses in the franchise.
adam · Mar 24
si think Echos was good on the gamecube. still have no idea what 3 was. by the way, do you have zero for the advance?
Benjamin Easter, Free Palestine · Mar 24
This was the first game I ever bought

metroid fusion is so good you'll wish you had more than two buttons for it
Kid Coheed aka The Chunk Hunk · Mar 25
It was my first Metroid, it's an A+ Game

it invented the nemesis from Prime
Anthony · Mar 24
I'm one of the weirdos that actually doesn't think fusion is that good. It started Metroid's trend of going more linear and being funneled from place to place and it has one of the latest and boss fights ever.
Tom Webster · Mar 24
I’m jealous (I wish I could play it for the first time again)! One of my favorite Metroid games. I hope you have a great time with it.
Elizabeth Sullivan 🇨🇦❤️ · Mar 25
Metroid Prime 4 is a much better game than Dread, IMO. The end boss battle in Dread was a pain in the ass.
Jerrad Thomas Wyche · Mar 24
Is it uncomfortable for someone with bigger hands? This is like if I took a picture holding a Game Boy Micro.
zunderscore · Mar 24
One of my absolute favorites. Hope you enjoy it.
Coltan Compton · Mar 24
Ooh also for all you Metroid goobers:
Coltan Compton · Mar 24
Been wanting to play through all the games in the franchise ✨as god intended✨, but unless someone can lend me their GBA or Super Nintendo I’m stuck with playing this and others using switch online (which is still a very solid gaming experience to be fair!).
Cat Lad · Mar 24
Yeeees. Good choice. It still feels weird that Dread is a direct story sequel to a GBA game. This series has been sleeping for so long
MetsCatdad · Mar 24
A wonderful title. Have fun!
Vorundor | Art · Mar 25
It’s such a good game, I hope you enjoy it. Good precursor to Dread too.
Videopolis · Mar 25
It's way better than Dread, IMO.
Mod Anon · Mar 24
Game is so great but so hard, I still have my original cart on the shelf but I am scared to pick it up
🍿 · Mar 24
Fusion is so beautiful.
Lucid Ghost 🇵🇸 · Mar 24
Nice backlit screen!
Kaaboose · Mar 25
My favourite Metroid game. Survival horror blends so damn well with Metriod.
Sylver W. Poulsen 🏳️⚧️ · Mar 24
I personally like Fusion and Zero Mission more than Dread (and I love Dread!), and it isn't because of nostalgia, since I only played the two of them the month before Dread came out.
The Dapper DM · Mar 24
The GBA looks so small in your hands!
EnderGeek 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ · Mar 25
Best game on the GBA in my opinion.
Ember83 · Mar 25
This game was absolutely a blast to play. Although not on my old school non-backlit GBA. The dark made it hard to play so I used my GameCube game boy player instead lol.
Bijou a wacky Hamster 🏳️⚧️☕️ · Mar 25
Enjoy my dude. That's honestly my favorite Metroid. Hope you dont have a pace maker or heart conditions. Cause ooooh man, you're in for a ride!
@sapperton.bsky.social · Mar 25
is that a kaalia on your desk
mystic critter · Mar 24
aaa i also had the transparent blue gba - what a throwback!
RotaryCookie · Mar 24
Fusion is rad and Dread is a stellar chaser. If you crave more 2D goodness afterwards, also check out AM2R.
Daniel von Waldner · Mar 24
I could never beat that one boss that lost his limbs and bounced around. Rage quitted over the run back every time.
Seth Swanson · Mar 24
OOooooo! That's a good one! I just started it up for my third or fourth time through.
M. Alasdair · Mar 24
fusion's peak, enjoy
@nshade666.bsky.social · Mar 24
Its a lot more openly linear experience than other metroid games(side stories like federation force and other m aside) but it ratchets up the tension in return
Sojaro · Mar 24
Fusion's great and Dread might be my favorite in the series. Have fun with them both.
Gundamonium · Mar 24
Metroid Fusion is on my "Must play!", list.
ChuckNyce · Mar 24
I beat Dread when it originally came out and didn't even realize Fusion was that closely connected to it until I played through it for the first time on my Ayn Thor earlier this year. Also did a first time playthrough of Zero Mission right after which I enjoyed even more. Have fun!
AshamedElephant · Mar 24
This was my first Metroid, and I loved it. It is amazing to me that something small I was holding in my hands actually made me feel some fear during the game. Enjoy your playthrough!
Vesper Moonfall · Mar 25
My favorite Metroid, my dude! Enjoy!
bill · Mar 24
excellent choice, my favourite Metroid entry by a large margin
Angel · Mar 24
Loves this one. So many secrets! Enjoy
Snarkwing Duck · Mar 25
Is that a Rose Colored Gaming modded GBA or are there new mods these days?
Spiral Nexxis · Mar 25
Great game. Zero Mission is probably still my favorite so far. But man I also really enjoyed Dread. Hope you enjoy both as well
@therealdonniedarko.bsky.social · Mar 24
One of my favorites in the Metroid series.
Red Randi · Mar 24
Playing on a cart and the og platform is the best experience.
rorb · Mar 24
the larp never ends...
Nintendo DS Lewis ✝️ · Mar 24
Fusion is a thrill ride from beginning to end.
Sundaecat · Mar 24
Ooh fusion was fun.
@incandenzak.bsky.social · Mar 25
It was my first metroid game
