How this article got Good Article I'll never know. There's many problems about this article, like:


 * There's lots of Citation needed on the article.
 * There's a dubious – discuss on the Metroid 2002 (Metroid series) section, whatever that is.
 * On thay note, why is there stuff talking about people with speedrun records? That's unnessesary!
 * And there's web adresses being crudly shown on the article.

There is so much problems with this article, it needs a Start-class rating. Please give out your thoughts. GamerPro64 (talk) 18:17, 9 May 2009 (UTC) The biggest thing, however, is the sourcing. MuZemike 01:45, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Delist for the following reasons:
 * Lead is not in very good shape. Needs some significant cleanup.
 * In addition to a significant amount of fact tags already present, there are also other portions of the content that are completely unsourced. Other portions are clearly original research Would not pass criterion 2.
 * Many unreliable sources present in the article.
 * Images are not of low-resolution or low filesize and/or have poor fair-use rationales—in particular. Media do not have proper fair-use rationales, as well.
 * I don't think all three videos are necessary in understanding the article. Maybe one is fine, but definitely not three, and definitely not in a gallery style (which goes against the MOS).
 * Delist pretty much per . This was made a GA when things were less stringently checked. I'll add that there isn't exactly a shortage of reliable sources available on this topic. I just added some possible ones to a "Further reading" section. —TKD  [talk]  [c] 00:32, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Delist per above. Kinda all that's been said has been said.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 12:07, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
