Well you certainly don't need to rant about it, but there are plenty of modern games that all take from gameplay mechanics brought about in M1. Dead Space 1 & 2, the Batman: Arkham games, and even Darksiders are obvious examples of this.

You base your entire online persona off of it (even though the name isn't...)
You doodle metroids on every non test piece of paper you have
You design test chambers for Portal 2 I mean...
...
...um...
Oh yeah.
You wish you had a scan visor
The "item aquired" music is one of your favorite ditties pieces of music. :P

When you get an X-ray, you always imagine that Samus is looking at you with her X-ray visor.

You know you're obsessed with Metroid when your dreams involve your girlfriend wearing a Samus helmet.

You know you're obsessed with Metroid when you see a cave near your home and refuse to go in without an Ice Beam.

But the real question is, what was she doing while wearing said helmet? ;)
Don't be pushed by your problems. Be led by your dreams.

No, you know that you're obsessed with Metroid when you paint the parts of your girlfriend that you have explored pink. :thumbsup:

You know you're obsessed with Metroid when you're out for a run (yes, that's me), and you imagine yourself using the Speed Booster. (Again, guilty as charged.)

But the time I used the Speed Booster I set a personal record. HA!

Yet another

You know you're obsessed with Metroid when you daydream about meeting Samus and obtaining a Varia Suit.

When most of the things you hum are from metroid, or when you make up lyrics, or play drums to them. I DO ALL THREE :( :dark:

Yep, i'm guilty of it myself, to be honest. But you probably don't have at least one or more Miis in your Mii Channel that are named "Samus" because i do.

and that is a clear and obvious sign that you are obsessed with metroid.
