After twelve videos, here is the end of Super Metroid! After a slightly inadvertent last round of item-hoovering, we head into the depths below the statue room to find out what lies there. And I was extremely surprised to find out what it was - after an entire game of forgetting the plot and running around finding items, what a masterpiece of silent storytelling and subtle dread that turned out to be! In contrast to the rest of these videos, most of those scenes have been left in unedited. And yes, there is screaming.

Thank you for sharing the ride with me, and also thanks to the Wii U players for inspiring me to finally try this myself in the first place. (But they're still all really stupid.)




So now the floor is free - tell me anything you like! Things I missed, things I did differently from you, recommendations for speedruns and sequence breaks to watch... this was an absolutely fascinating game, and as always, I'd love to hear other people's experiences with it.
