HI DEF NES Potential Issue or Metroid+

Post by pyroman512 »

I was playing Metroid NES for the first time ever the other day on my 4K tv. I have game mode on and I believe everything on the TV side is kosher. During rooms with lots of enemies especially during the final boss, the gameplay would just slow down like a slow motion replay. I've never played Metroid before so I'm unsure if that is part of the game or its the HiDef NES introducing that.

Maybe there is a setting I should adjust in the HiDef nes? I had it set to 720p everything else was probably default too. I was also using an actual cart too.

No problem, Metroid just has a ton of slowdown. Maybe one of the ports of it fixes it? I believe it's in Zero Mission, Metroid Prime, and on its own GBA cart.

The FDS version supposedly runs a little better.
