I've joined this awesome video game club online initiated by @killyourfm and this month we're playing #SuperMetroid. Just for the heck of it, since I've already played it a bunch of times, I decided to record a long play of the playthrough.
If you like non-commentary playthroughs of old video games, I recommend watching it over at PeerTube:

Five Great Runs from Awesome Games Done Quick 2025
A mere five runs among too many worth watching to list, of course.

My @pixel_dailies for #mushroom and #orbit are #FanArt of two of my favorite games, #ALTTP and #SuperMetroid.
BTW, I want to shout out @sonneveld for streaming my game (#TaiFab)! It was really fun to watch you play, and the chat was lovely. To answer a chat question: it's a Holy Snorkel because of the Holy Symbol (https://castlevania.fandom.com/wiki/Holy_Symbol), but I loved one person's guess that it's a reference to Holy Diver! My husband loves that song. 
Today's catch-up @pixel_dailies are the Plasma #Beam from #SuperMetroid and a group of blood cells, including two #plate -lets.
First time getting back into proper runs and I set a new PB! I’d been focusing mainly on my boss performance and it kinda shows here, but there’s still so much room for improvement that I really wanna keep going!
(that, and I scrapped like 4 runs leading up to this one so I’m very pleased)
ok, since i got that issue resolved...
I'm playing Super Junkoid and doing a thread here since I don't know what else to do
for now...
this story sounds cool so far
I’m just saying, I’m glad Super Metroid lets you change the controls because the default ones suck. #Metroid #SuperMetroid #SNES
The irony of me expecting either my computer giving it up or me, and I’ve just gone and achieved the goal that of reaching a sub-hour run in SM!
I was completely blown away at it too—I was so sure that the run was going to fall apart at so many points, but I managed to hold on and I now have a new PB of 59:48!
Thinking back to my first timed run I did in 2023, it was a 1:21:03 and I was thinking surely there wasn’t anything else to be found right? Oh how wrong I was lmao
Not sure what I’ll do next since it was such a big goal of mine… Maybe I’ll go back to map rando for a bit.

Song Nr 2 "Maridia" is about the aquatic area in #supermetroid with its' "halls made of water" and a "tub made of narrowness". We have a pretty strong sub-theme (no pun intended) about water, so it seemed just about right to have a song about Maridia.

Games like #SuperMetroid and #LinkToThePast are often categorized very differently. The formula though seems nearly the same. Gated challenge areas that give new capabilities, that enable wider exploration.
The difference is largely in visual perspective and control mechanics. Sometimes our genres seem like a feeble attempt at drawing boundaries around an inherently flexible medium.

please don't be weird about it!!!
A couple of days ago, there was a rather lovely gaming anniversary - 30 years since the release of Super Metroid in Japan.
A quantum leap from the Fami/NES and GB adventures Samus had already enjoyed, Super Metroid cemented that the series was here to stay. Though I warrant peeps then didn't think we'd have to wait until 2002 for the next in the series after that!
This is a pretty damn cool JP ad for Super Metroid that leans deep into the horror aspects.
Happy 30th to #SuperMetroid!
Released as part of Futabasha's "Perfect Strategy Series" in 1994, this was an essential guidebook to helping players navigate Zebes.
What are some of your favourite #Metroid memories?
