Metroid II: Return of Samus

Thank you Lukie Games for shipping me out this obvious classic for the Game Boy! We are playing ours on Super Game Boy for now. The cart arrived safely and in nice condition overall.

Not only is this a beautiful game, but it came from an even better website. Loved how clean the cart was.

A bit of shooting a bit of strategy its a great game to throw in the gbc since its compatible despite being a gray cartridge. Definitely a must have for anyone cartride was in great shape and corrosion free.

Who knew games likes this could be played on that old brick back in the day? My only complaint is that Samus takes up a lot of space on the screen so you can't see much of the levels and enemies could just pop out of no where. But that's okay because the design on Samus is very well detailed and the levels are pretty easy to navigate

I played this just after finishing the 3DS remake. This holds up very well, and I believe every Gameboy owner should play this gem.

Great condition, works perfectly and came fast, anyone thinking about getting one I recommend 100%

It is a gameboy game, so it isn't exactly the most advanced, but I have to admit that it's my favorite metroid game so far. Highly recommended.

The metroids are a bit too brainless. battles are a bit sloppy and not the best. the maze is more set into areas so it's not as easy to get lost and not as much backtracking as super metroid. but this is very fun game to play especially considering it was made on a gameboy.shame they never remade it. Adding colour and changing the metroid battles a bit would make this one of the best games ever. but it still sits at one of the best gameboy games at least.

My ultimate favorate game in the metroid series! This game shows off the true power of the gameboy and is a must play for any metroid enthusiast.

No case. Great game!

Its no Super Metroid but its still a great game!

And if I'm not mistaken the first game I ever played for the Game Boy. At the time I first played this game I hadn't played the original Metroid for the NES. After playing this game I definitely wanted to try that one. Metroid II picks up some time after the end of the original Metroid. The Galactic Federation has sent two expeditions to the planet SR388 where the Metroids were first discovered. The first was a scientific expedition that was never heard from again. So the Federation sent a rescue team but they were also never heard from. Concerned, the Federation dispatched Samus Aran to SR388 to exterminate every last living Metroid. The gameplay is much like the original and indeed this game introduuces one of Samus' coolest suit upgrades to be seen in future titles, the Spider Ball. Your goal is to explore SRc88 and destroy every Metroid you find. Be careful though. Metroids come in a variety of shapes and sizes each more dangerous than the last. This game also introduces an interesting way to progress one that's never seen again so far as I know. You will of course find yourself backtracking frequently when you get a new upgrade but there's another twist. Each area of the planet has a set number of Metroids for Samus to find and destroy. Once all the Metroids in a given area have been destroyed there's an earthquake which, strangely enough, will remove an obstacle that prevents passage to the next area. The audio is something of a mixed bag. There are a few tunes that you'll hear throughout the game and these are quite catchy. But then there are several tunes that, rather than being actual music, are collections of sound effects that loop. There's one of these "tunes" for each major area of the game. Then of course for the final area there's a deep, ominous tune that builds up the suspense to the final confrontation. Sound effect wise the game gets the job done. Each of Samus' weapons has its own distinctive sound. There also differennt sound effects for some enemy attacks. Gameplay wise this isn't going to be a game you can complete in a single sitting. You're going to have to explore every nook and cranny to find that last energy or missile expansion. All in all this is definitely a game well worth adding to your collection.

I remember playing this game as a kid on my gameboy. Spent hours combing over every inch of it to find everything. Probably spent to much time. Best part is the game has aged great. This game still holds up well to the metroid name. I'd suggest this for anyone who's got an old gameboy around or has a Super Game Boy for the SNES like I do.

Side Scroller. It's Much Like The Nes Game But With Some Improvements. You Play As Samus Trying To Make Your Way Deaper In The Planet Killing All The Metroid Creatures.

Very fun game for the classic Gameboy. Also a very underrated game. For what it is though, it is one of my top best Gameboy game of all time!
