My experience with FF stopped me picking up Zelda Tri Force Heroes. FF being a co-op game puts it towards the end of the list for me, I could only go so far solo before coming up against missions where it felt like you had to play in co-op and I'm not one for co-op games. Hunters story had the weakest story of what we'd seen at the time but I liked that it opened out the Metroid Universe more. Hunters & Federation Force I have similar problems with in that I feel they are held back by the hardware - not enough graphical power and hand-cramping controls make them difficult to play. Both excellent games just prefer 3D gameplay over 2D. Prime followed by Super at the top for me. It's actually a more enjoyable game when you just skip all the cutscenes in my opinion.

Despite finding the 2D heart of both the Mario and Zelda franchises and transplanting them into 3D, somehow there was extreme scepticism that it could also be done with the Metroid series as well.
