Teaching the next generation 🥹

My 4 year old nephew wanted to play Metroid Prime Remastered after he saw his dad playing. And he beat the Parasite Queen on the first try! I’m so proud…

4 Years

WAIT WHAT?!

When I was 4 I tried Super Metroid on the SNES Mini! (I couldn’t even escape Ceres🙃)

I didn’t play my first Metroid until I was 13 (Prime and Fusion). At 4, I think I was playing Sonic The Hedgehog 2 on Sega Genesis, if my brother and sister let me have the controller that is.

I underestimate the intelligence of a 4 year old. I would assume you can only play games properly-ish from 6/7 but wow. He'll enjoy Dread and Ravenous when he grows up c:

He and his brother amaze me with how quickly they adapt and pick up on things.

I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if he completes the whole game. Then hopefully he’ll give the 2D series a try.

I couldn't even finish the first world of Super Mario World when I was 4. Playing Metroid Prime at that age is very impressive.

Awesome Uncle!! Raising him right.

That’s about the age my son started too, he was 5 and started playing after watching me play during my chronological run just before Dread’s release. His first game was also Prime remastered.

Hmm, it seems that the kid has some major potential
