Metroid: High Definition

For years the original Metroid has been limited by the capabilities of a system as ancient as the Chozo civilization – until now. With enhanced features such as increased resolution, scrolling backgrounds, a dynamic automap, and customizable sound and graphics, players can now experience the original Metroid the way they would like it to be played.

The Mesen Enhancement Pack for Metroid has been re-written from the ground up and is available as of 1/26/2024
