As another week flies by, the gang get together this week to discuss a whole slew of Metroid Musing questions from OmegaMetroid.com! On the docket: which game will have a bigger impact on the series going forward, Metroid Dread or Prime Remastered? What sales figures for Remastered would be considered a disappointment, average, or a smashing success? Should Samus start Metroid 6 at full power and keep her abilities? Would a third pursuer type enemy be one too many? Should Samus ever have a companion on her journeys? Does Metroid Fusion being on NSO lessen the chances of it getting remade?
All this, PLUS we share some very brief thoughts on the Super Mario Bros. Movie and where we see the future of Nintendo's movies going! Don't miss out!

The Force is strong with this episode as worlds collide as Doominal Crossing hosts an episode with The Zelda Cast's Alasyn Eletha to talk all things Jedi: Fallen Order! The gang talk how they got into Star Wars, their thoughts on the gameplay, how Cal Kestis ranks among Star Wars heroes, their thoughts on 3D Metroidvania's, lightsaber combat, and why this game might be worth a go for Metroid fans even if you're not all that into Star Wars!
With Jedi Survivor releasing in just a few weeks, this seemed like the perfect time to pay homage to one of the great Star Wars games of all time! Play this game, you must - there is no try!

It's a new era of the podcast! We're proud to announce our new theme song, which you can download for free here, is available everywhere! The track, which was written by Doominal and arranged by our friend Synamax, with some shredding guitar solo's by Lacey Johnson, sounds like something right out of Metroid Prime 4, so we had Max and Lacey join us to talk about the origins of the track, what tweaks and techniques they used to take it to the next level, and Doom's inspiration for what he wanted the track to sound like! We also ask them what they thought of the Metroid Dread OST, what Metroid song needs to come back, and what their hopes are for Metroid Prime 4!
All this, PLUS an announcement - we'll be LIVE STREAMING (most) of our episodes on our YouTube channel going forward, so make sure you're subbed to see the episodes as they happen!

We're kicking it old school this week, as we're diving into one of the most important and underrated games in the series - Metroid II! We're once again joined by Staff Writer Daniel Hoctor to go over our first memories of playing it, how its limitations might or might not dissuade newer players, the importance of the games story and gameplay on the rest of the series, why none of the music has come back, our thoughts on the evolution of the Metroids, what this original version offers that neither Samus Returns or AM2R does, and so much more! If you haven't played Metroid II in a long time, or maybe ever, you owe it to yourself to fire it up on NSO and give it a whirl!
PLUS - we have a MASSIVE show planned for next week that we will be live streaming on our YouTube channel! Don't miss out!

It's a new week, Metroid fans, and this episode we're comparing and contrasting the "Golden Age" of Metroid from 2002-2007 to the current era we're in now, starting in 2021 with Metroid Dread. Andy is joined by Staff Writer Daniel Hoctor to talk about when the tide started to swing back up for the series, how Metroid Prime 4 plays into this era, what other games could be on the horizon, when the first "Golden Age" officially ended, and more!
PLUS, we spend some talking Ridley! More specifically, we analyze two articles on improving the Meta Ridley fight and why the Proteus Ridley fight fits thematically in Metroid II! Come enjoy a light and breezy episode with us!

Mapping Metroid returns, and since we're still riding the wave of Metroid Prime Remastered, we thought it was a perfect time to look at the beautiful, brooding mysterious enigma known as the Chozo Ruins! We go in depth talking about the various bosses and how they differ from each other, our favorite expansions to collect, how incredible the Chozo Lore was in terms of shaping the story and your purpose, the enemies that define the area, which musical tracks we like the most, and what our favorite rooms in the Ruins are!
No one has ever went as in depth as we go, so come and enjoy the ride as we map the iconic Chozo Ruins!

It's still hard to believe Metroid Prime Remastered is real, but you know what's not hard to believe? That we have another new episode! This week, Dak and Doom have pulled out the Metroid Mailbag. We asked for not just your questions, but your comments and hot takes as well! Join us as we chat about Metroid Prime Remastered, Metroid Dread, and more. Are Samus Returns and Dread the only Metroid games with good combat? Did we learn anything new about Prime after playing the Remaster? Is Prime 4 taking so long because it's going to be an open world game?
Tap in to hear our answers to your questions and comments, plus our continued thoughts on Prime Remastered!

Now that the dust has settled a bit, the gang get together to talk all things Metroid Prime Remastered! We go over our initial reactions, how much we all freaked out, the price point of the game, some of the control options, the epic shadow drop, some minor gripes, and whether Remastered is the best looking Nintendo game ever made! We could barely contain our excitement, so get ready for a lot of gushing!
All this, PLUS our thoughts on the Direct in general, Metroid II and Game Boy/GBA games on NSO, The Last of Us, and more!

The whole band is back together baby! Andy, Dak, and Doom are back playing Metroid fans' favorite game: Samus's Percentages! The premise is simple: we read off a statement and then assign a percentage on said statement ever coming true. On the docket this time are topics like: will Metroid get another spinoff? Will Metroid Prime 4 outsell Metroid Dread? Should Nintendo purchase Mercury Steam? Will multiplayer return? Do we ever see Axiom Verge 3 or Ori 3? Is Nintendo done porting over games from the Wii U? Does Smash 64 come to NSO before GBA games?
All this and so much more, PLUS the gang talk movies and trivia! Come play along with us!
