Metroid: Zero Mission (Game Boy Advance)














A masterful remake of the very first NES Metroid title zero missions only real flaws are the relative lack of challenging moments (particularly the bosses) and it’s criminally short length at around 5 hours.















Zero Mission is a gorgeous looking game, especially if played via a DS Lite or Game Boy Micro, it's a step up from Super Metroid unlike the previous GBA title Metroid Fusion which (to aid visibility on the original GBA & GBA SP) in my opinion had a far too bright and washed-out look.















Aurally the game also excels providing classic Metroid tunes remixed for the superior hardware. The Metroid series has always had excellent music and this one is no exception.
Despite the lack of challenge and the short length Zero Mission is a fantastic entry in a fantastic series and is well worth checking out.
