And something I really enjoyed about this game the first time through was that you could just stumble upon a boss without any idea it was coming, which made it interesting. Even after playing through the game, you knew you'd never find all of the secret rooms and passageways to get more stuff, which kept it interesting. The story line was interesting too, and this was one of the first games I ever got.

I don't think that's true, it's only basic in the sense that it's an NES game, that being said I think it was one of the most deep games to ever grace the console, along with Zelda it was one of the first action adventure type games, it was a game that put you in this huge free roam alien world, it made you feel lost, but that was part of the fun.
While Super Metroid is undeniably better, I still consider the original a great game that isn't as dated as people say.
A lot of the so called flaws of the first Metroid were actually the best things about it. IMO only pussies bitch about the lack of a map, that to me just added to the suspense because you truly never knew where you were gonna end up next, which is the whole premise of the series. Besides, if you're super hardcore you'd make your own map.

That's a bit harsh isn't it? I thought the N64 had an excellent if modest library of games, I can think of at least 30 great games for the system. Pretty much all the Nintendo published games are quality, in fact it's 1st party library is in my opinion the most consistant of any Nintendo console. However I'll admit that aside from those the system only boasted a few good 3rd party published games.
