Super Metroid is hailed as one of the best games of the 16-bit era and for good reason. On this episode of DNSQ, Ronnie reveals Super Metroid’s best kept secret, the hidden game design decisions that help shape the player’s experience without ever breaking the game’s sense of isolation.

Good video, horrible intro
Rest In peace Ronnie. Rest in peace.
Everyone's saying rest in peace. Did the guy that made this video die?
This game teaches you how to play without a bunch of text boxes. It only Samus Returns did that.
Its so sad that more episodes of this weren't made, but now the truth is no more episodes will be made
Lol take the player by the hand i just broke the game by wall jumping btw wall jumping is hard

Is this the guy that committed suicide?
These are really painful to watch now. Rest In Peace Ronnie. Rest in piece.

2:00 soy mexicano y entendí el chiste. xD
Video start cutted, and it is absolutely not good…. was it too much difficult to start your video normally? It seems real starting part is missing.
… and your title is a fake, becouse there is not an "hidden tutorial in Metroid"… You are just searching the hype, putting sensational titles on you videos, that are fake titles.
Ronnie is not going to read this
Unless I missed it in the video, I’m surprised there wasn’t a mention of the title screen demos that gradually get added as you progress through the game, further hinting some special moves and Easter eggs like the crystal flash and special charge beam / bomb combination moves.
"Throws her spaceship in reverse" I don't know why but that's funny.
