Buckle in, because we've got a doozy today. We go back and create a timeline of the most mysterious game in the Metroid universe: Metroid Dread, the game that never was. We go over every interview, every mention, all the rumors, all the whispers over the years to bring you the most comprehensive timeline of the rumored Metroid Fusion sequel. We also throw in our own theories as to what we think really happened over the years.
You won't wanna miss this one, and while you're here, check out this awesome playlist from ReduxSound featuring some custom made Metroid Dread music!

Although you wouldn't know it from listening to Nintendo, two big franchises are celebrating their 35th anniversary this year: Metroid and The Legend of Zelda! In honor of this anniversary, we pitch our ideal crossovers! As many of you know, Andy works for Zelda Dungeon, so this week with Dak out, we have Zelda Dungeon Managing Editor Rod Lloyd step in to talk "what if's". Two guys that love Zelda and Metroid, what could be better?
Come hang with us, and be sure to check in next week when we cover all the rumor and innuendo surrounding Metroid Dread!

Our Other M journey comes to an end (at least for now) as we deliver another action packed episode critiquing, complementing, and considering what could have been in the video game that was Metroid Other M. Hear our thoughts on the sideways Wiimote control schemes, the FPS aspects, how auto aiming and dodging make the game a breeze, what power ups worked incredibly well, our two cents on the music, what boss battles rocked, and so much more!
Come listen to us put a bow on Other M, and let us know what you think of our suggestions to improve the final product we got!

It's finally here. After a year of build up, we are finally dissecting the story of the most controversial Metroid game ever made: Metroid Other M. Come hear our thoughts, our critiques, our suggestions and tweaks, what we thought of the characters, and how some key decisions lead to it all going wrong.
This is by far our longest episode, but it'll fly by as the fellas have a thoughtful, entertaining, and engrossing chat about all things Other M. Don't forget to tune in next week too, as we're back talking about the gameplay of Other M - does it redeem the story? We'll see!

Our first Nintendo Direct in more than 500 days came and went, and although it was expected, there was no Metroid news. Despite that, there was a lot to break down, from games we saw and were excited about, to how Skyward Sword HD being a thing gives us hope for dual analog in Metroid Prime Trilogy, to some updates in Blasphemous.
We were divided on where we stood as to the quality of the Direct, so come weigh in with your thoughts!

WOWWWW! Leave it to Nintendo to announce a Nintendo Direct the day after we record this weeks episode! Here's hoping for some Metroid news! In the meantime, we got a nice lil Q&A episode! What new enemies do we want to see? What's our least favorite thing about our favorite Metroid? Is Samus misrepresented in Smash? Would we want to see a Metal Gear Solid-esq Metroid game?
All this and so much more!

We had so much fun covering the last Metroid theory about Etecoon's and Dachora's that we decided to do it all over again with FIVE of our favorite Metroid theories! Mother Brain working for the cause of good, SR388 as a living planet, the TRUE origins of Metroids and more! We poke holes, see where the theories have some weight, and have fun going over them!
All this, PLUS E3 talk, how Ridley is kinda like The Joker, and... Star Wars Episode I The Phantom Menace talk?! You betcha! Come hangout!

Welcome to the first episode of a brand new subseries called Definitive Ranking! In this series (inspired by the Zelda Dungeon series of the same name) we aim to rank each Metroid game in 10 key categories as they relate to other Metroid games, and see how each game stacks up at the end!
The categories we're ranking each game are:
- 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 Twitter!

On the two year anniversary of Metroid Prime 4's development being restarted, the boys look to a really cool project giving Metroid fans some much needed optimism: a Lego set based on Samus and the Metroid universe! We examine the set and give our takes on our most wanted pieces of Metroid merchandise, and our favorite piece of existing Metroid merch!
PLUS we take a couple fan questions to end the show on! How would we introduce Ridley as a playable character, what a Samus-less mainline Metroid game would look like, and our hopes for a Super Metroid remake.
Come hang out with us!
