So my nephew likes Metroid

My six year old nephew likes Metroid Fusion. When he comes over he often asks to play my DS, or brings his own and he likes Metroid Fusion and often plays it. I wonder if I should him one of the games, Metroid Fusion, or another.

Fusion was one of my favorites, right up there Prime. Get him Super Metroid (SNES or emulator), Metroid Fusion, or Metroid Prime. (Gamecube)

No take it two more steps back, give the toddler a NES and Metroid, We have to show the small kids today that you don't need fancy graphics to have a good game.

And it's always good to show them how to operate Nes with bad connectors.

Metroid for the NES isn't really a children's game. I'd start him off with Zero Mission.

^^Allowing a child access to the NES Metroid would theoretically end everything.

Zero Mission is a good starting point as it's a remake of the first one plus it was one of the easiest in the series.

Hey at least someone didn't recommend Metroid 2.
