| 20 Jan 23:33 2017 |  | Use Metroid (U) [!] for this set. (E) will not function, it's been linked elsewhere because of timer shenanigans causing problems. | ||
| 20 Jan 23:40 2017 | | Do not link Romhacks here. They belong in their own entries. | ||
| 4 Feb 4:08 2017 |  | Morph ball didn't pop for me either. | ||
| 4 Feb 17:04 2017 | | Pal timer would be shorter, not longer, on igt. | ||
| 4 Feb 17:06 2017 | | Morph ball pops correctly, use the RANes emulator this site offers, not retroarch. (Or use the nightly build (NOT THE STABLE RELEASE) of retroarch, with quicknes as a core) | ||
| 1 Mar 0:55 2018 |  | Using RetroaArch is fine! | ||
| 30 Apr 1:42 2018 |  | Do the ones for beating the game in a certain time stack or do you need to beat it 5 separate times? | ||
| 5 Jun 3:59 2018 |  | They do stack | ||
| 29 Nov 3:26 2018 |  | Battery save protection is added to the set as well as other fixes. | ||
| 3 Dec 23:21 2018 | | If you're playing on RetroArch please use QuickNES core only for this set. | ||
| 8 Dec 3:34 2018 |  | Question: Am I going crazy or is the ice beam achievement glitched? Because I picked up the one in Brinstar first, then picked it up in Norfair but the achievement didn't pop. Was I supposed to pick it up in Norfair first for the achievement to work? | ||
| 10 Dec 15:36 2018 |  | ice beam achievement is glitched | ||
| 12 Dec 21:34 2018 | | And I guess alienation is also broken. | ||
| 20 Dec 17:22 2018 | | Ice Beam was broken. Fixed now. | ||
| 21 Dec 8:33 2018 | | Alienation wasn't completely broken but it's fixed too. | ||
