Also liked Prime but didn't have a great time with it. On my first playthrough of Fusion probably done about 80% by now which I adore. Found Prime hardwork, Fusion is easy and on rails but it's so much fun.
I love how not alone I feel in the few last replies. Bolded bits I EXACTLY agree with

I'd forgotten just how fantastic it is. There's something special about Metroid games in the SNES style it's just a magic format and style for them.
Captain Kinopio wrote:Finished Fusion. Absolutely brilliant, right up there with Super Metroid. Shame we'll never get another one in this style. I enjoyed it so much more than the Prime remaster. I know people complain about the on rails elements but as someone who generally finds getting lost in Metroid games immensely frustrating, I loved it.

Fusion > Dread > Super > Prime
