With the Switch 2 launching imminently, we decided to pay homage to the Nintendo Switch, one of the great Nintendo consoles of all time, and rank our top ten favorite games! From the obvious picks like Breath of the Wild, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, and Smash Ultimate, to titles we advocate for like Pikmin 4, Xenoblade Chronicles 3, and Fire Emblem: Three Houses, to the shining jewel that is Metroid Dread we go over and share our memories of these games and reminisce about the era of the Switch.
All this, PLUS we are THRILLED to announce Middle-Earth: The Podcast, a new show featuring Andy, Al, and Corey as they talk about the books, movies, games, and everything in-between relating to J.R.R. Tolkien’s incredible legendarium! Catch the first episode when it drops later this month on Patreon.com/SPNet!

This week on the pod is something a little different. Andy is out sick and we already released a Patreon episode the previous week, so rather than doing two in a row, Doominal Crossing decided to take the pilot's seat for a special story time session. In this episode, Doom talks about his entire history with the Metroid series, the good, the bad and the ugly. In his journey, he chronicles how he got into series, why it resonates so much with him and how it impacted his life.
All of this as the Nintendo Switch 2 looms ever closer!

Andy and Doom weren't able to get together to produce a new episode, so we put put to a Discord vote and you selected for this week's show a blast from the past! ROM Hack Reviews returns just in time to send off 2022 the right way! This month, two Metroid games are being smashed together to make Super Metroid: Federation Force. Made by Metaquarius, this hack attempts to bring some honor back to the Federation Force branding! Does it succeed? Or is the Galactic brand just cursed to live in infamy? Sign up now to Patreon to see for yourself, and as always, click here to play the hack for yourself!
We'll see you all next week, everyone have a great holiday!

Definitive Ranking returns! This week, we're examining Milton Guasti's Another Metroid II Remake, or AM2R, the fan game so unbelievably good we can rank it on the same level as official Metroid games! We're going through and ranking it by the same standards as we would an official Nintendo-made Metroid game, talking about the boss inclusions, how Metroid fights could have been implemented differently, some of the crazy expansions, and more!
Come play along, and as always, here’s the criteria for the Definitive Rankings:
- World / Atmosphere (the vibe, the setting, the mood)
- Art Style (design of Samus, the enemies, the graphics in general)
- Story (what works, what doesn’t)
- Pacing / Progression (are there any parts that really bog the player down, or is it still fun getting lost?)
- Gameplay / “Gimmick” (what new or different gameplay aspects we like)
- Items / Abilities (how are the powerups and are they cool and practical)
- Areas (how does each individual area look, feel, play, etc.)
- Enemies / Bosses (are they fun, creative, etc.)
- Expansions / Powerups (are the expansions hidden throughout the world fun, creative, and enjoyable to collect?)
- Music (are we humming along?)
Of course, all of these are subjective, and we’re putting our critics hats on, but we want to hear what you have to say on Bluesky!

We're back with another episode of Logbook Archives, our lore-centric series, and this week, we're examining the most important - and mysterious - faction in the Metroid universe: the Galactic Federation! Little is known about this organization, but we go over and cover everything we know, starting with the history and formation, through the Prime Era, Project Golem, the Metroid Crisis, the Bottle Ship Incident, the BSL Incident, and ZDR's E.M.M.I. theft. We examine the tech Sylux stole, the mysterious Ringleader faction, and the Metroid experiments. To end it off, we speculate on what role the Galactic Federation could play in Metroid Prime 4 and Metroid 6!
All this, PLUS some thoughts on Sinners and plugging Omega Metroid’s Metroid Prime Hunters Single-Player and Multiplayer Walkthrough! Come and hang out with us!

After all the chaos of the last few weeks, we thought we'd better open it up to our listeners to see what was on their minds! We asked you for your questions, and you delivered in this weeks Q&A, so buckle in! We're covering topics like: what will Samus's red and black suit functionality be like? Do the chances of seeing Ridley in Beyond seem slim now? Will the Delano 7 show up? What would we do if we were in charge of Metroid Prime 4's marketing? Are the Lamorn and Metroid Prime related? Will Metroid Dread get a Switch 2 upgrade?
All this, PLUS our horror stories trying to pre-order a Switch 2! Come hang out with us!

Andy is out this week on the pod, meaning Dak and Doom are here to take the wheel! Last week, we discussed the Metroid Prime 4: Beyond Nintendo Treehouse demo in great detail to fully analyze its contents. This week, we gathered ALL of the official info on the game we could find; from gameplay to developer quotes, and attempted to use that information to predict where the game's story is heading. What are Sylux's motivations? Do the new "Fusion" Metroids have a relationship to the psychic abilities Samus acquires? Should the Lamorn be trusted? Is there a greater connection to the Metroid Prime Trilogy storyline than we realize? All of this and so much more in this nearly 2 hour discussion!
Plus... A major update on Nintendo Switch 2 North American pre-orders, now confirmed to begin on April 24th! Good luck everyone!

Andy and Doom return after another crazy week of news updates regarding Switch 2 pre-orders, tariffs, and games! We sort through it all and then take a look in depth at the Treehouse footage from last week, talking about the amazing opening cinematic, the text crawl, the standoff between Samus and Sylux, the artifact, and the Golem mechs! We lament over what could have been with Federation Force, speculate about the whereabouts of Samus's ship on Viewros, and analyze some key art to get an idea of what kind of landscape we could be in for!
We're back with story thoughts next week, so make sue you tag us with your best theories and speculation!

What a crazy week it has been. We have no time to waste, so we kick off the show with some talk about our thoughts on the price of the Switch 2, Mario Kart World, and the pre-orders being delayed in North America (Canadian pre-orders had not been delayed at the time of recording). After that, we get down to the fun business and talk to Dak, who got a chance to get some hands on game time in New York at the Nintendo Switch 2 event! Dak gives us his impressions of the Switch 2, mouse controls, Mario Kart World, Drag x Drive, Donkey Kong Bananza, and of course, Metroid Prime 4: Beyond!
This is an episode you won't want to miss, so come and check out our thoughts on the Switch 2!
