| Description |
Metroid Presented by the Metroid Database, or "MDbtroid" for short, is basically a graphical hack of the original NES game. The game has been improved upon in many different ways, including Samus's animation cycle, redrawn and enlarged bosses, a beautiful new opening title screen, new ending graphics, new Suitless Samus sprites, and all the enemies have been carefully redrawn. See the included .txt file for more details on what else has been changed.
Here is a youtube video demonstration link below.
