it's a must to have a good controller for retro games. please get the 8bitdo controllers, they are extremely good and easy to use.

if you have a wii you should buy it on the store and play it with a Nintendo Classic Controller or a Wii U Pro Controller if you have a Wii U

i think any pad is better than a kb for this kind of game but beyond that its really dumb to argue over specific controllers. i mean i dont think the OP is doing crazy poo poo like mockballs anyway

word.

I've been looking for a PC controller forever, because the Xbox d pad is rank rear end. I'm going to buy one of these

I'm happy for you, enjoy. I hope I can get the dual analog stick one soon. I'd also like to add that getting a SNES usb converter is extremely win if you have a SNES controller. I got one from this dude and it rules, he also got other usb converters available: http://www.raphnet-tech.com/

metroid prime 2 was cool but getting so damaged in the dark world didn't allow me to explore it properly for the first half of the game at least, and I like taking my time to explore and enjoy the surroundings in the Metroid Prime series

i've never thought a metroid looks anything like a pussy, but now that you mention it, hell, i'd gently caress it

Ok thanks I made it past it I am really digging this game, I wonder how different my life would have ended up if we'd have got a SNES instead of Genesis back in the day

most definitely not living a life with an rear end in a top hat permanently full of African AIDS cum

I believe so, but if it's emulated it's a must to play with a good controller.

I wish they'd do a radical remake of Metroid II for 3DS. The game was very limited by the Game Boy and I think a whole lot more could be added to it. Kinda like what Zero Mission is to the original Metroid. I want to hunt dangerous Metroids on SR388 with Super Metroid-style gameplay and depth.
