Can't find it. I can't recall flashing blue when being sucked by Metroids, but I don't trust my memory... I'm probably just overlooking things.
And thanks for the lower-quality movie, it made watching on dial-up possible. However, I'm just assuming that those are compression artifacts around the map and weapon icons; they aren't visible in the first room...
All youtube movies are like that. I guess you can say youtube is dialup frienldy in some ways. Alot of their videos load faster than the avi's used by google video.
Is it me, or are the metroids actually evading the ice beam? Or were they that hard to hit? I played this game a long long time ago, but can't remember...
