Geekiness: Super Metroid

[chezmax]

So, Super Metroid is one of my favourite games, and possibly my favourite of the 16-bit era.

It was released on Virtual Console recently, so I'd been playing it recently and beat it yesterday, with a time of 10 hours 7 minutes, with an 83% completion rate.

Now, you get the best ending if you do it under 3 hours, so I tried again today, and did it in 3 hours 34 minutes (69%). Hmm. That'll give me the second best ending. But I'll need to tighten it up a bit more to get the best one. So close!

Can I do it fast enough if I just try again, and try to do it quicker, or will I need to actually go through, write down everywhere I need to go, and then try to do it? Hmm.

I understand entirely. But is it really when you've already beaten the game a considerable number of times?

In the end though, it's up to you. :D You do this how you most feel comfortable doing it. Either way though, it's going to take study and effort. :D
