This may be shocking, but Prime 3 was my first Metroid game. It took me a while to beat but I liked it a lot, the puzzles reminded me of Zelda at the time. It also got me into the rest of the series! Now that I've played Prime 2 and 1, I still think 3 holds up well.

Nothing from me although Prime 3 is in my backlog.

Felghana was a great remake, if unbalanced and frequently maddening. I should also note that Donkey Kong ranks among my most hated games of all time.

Lol. I think it's pretty fun.

The thought of a third Metroid Prime existing, let alone people still being interested enough to play it after the first two, puzzles me however. I generally find those games incredibly dull, I can't imagine playing three of them.

I also like Donkey Kong, although I'm not sure why the 2600 version was nominated considering it's one of the worst versions.

I never could figure out why Drop7 was supposedly good. I suppose the mechanics never clicked for me. I never felt like I could properly plan ahead.

Also I want to play more lethal league. I love the idea.

Sadly, I have never played Kirby's Dreamland 3.

Donkey Kong climbs into the next round.
