Welcome to another episode of the Omega Metroid Pod! This week, the fellas take you on a journey to relive the incredible history of Retro Studios and their journey to making Metroid Prime. Sleazy owners, embezzled funds, employee's working 48 hours straight, massive layoffs, and 3 canceled games is just a part of a story so incredible, it seems like fiction! Come listen to us talk, debate, and relive the wild journey that led to Metroid Prime, and for an in depth look, read this article here!
All this, plus our thoughts on Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity and what that could mean for Metroid in 2020!

What's up guys, we're back with another Q&A session this week! A fan of the show sent in some questions and we went in depth answering them! What's Sylux's role going to be in Prime 4? When are we going to talk about Castlevania on the show? Would a anime Netflix Metroid show be great? Why didn't Nintendo remake Metroid II 10 years earlier?
All this and more, plus some nice ranting on our least favorite enemies and Direct speculation! Come hang out and let us know what you think!

We're coming in guns 'a blazing this week (pun intended) as we sit down and discuss in depth our favorite - and least favorite - beams in the Metroid series! We sit down and break 'em all down, from the traditional 2D beams, to the more FPS-specific weaponry of Hunters, and everything in between!
Plus, come hear our thoughts on the Indie Spotlight Direct this morning, and weigh in on our debate about Chicago vs New York pizza! Don't miss out!

We're back for the second ever Inspired By Metroid showcase, and this time we're focusing on the medieval hit Blasphemous (developed by the Game Kitchen)! Come listen as we talk about the game from top to bottom - what it did really well, what Metroid could learn from it, what held it back from being a A+ game, and if Metroid fans would like it! We unpack everything there is to unpack about Blasphemous and then some!
PLUS, a little Animal Crossing and Willem Dafoe chitchat to get us started! Come hang out!

We're back this week to cover a bevvy of topics, with the big talking point being what we think a N64 Metroid game would have looked like? What would we have wanted it to be like and what do we think Nintendo would have actually done? If we had gotten an N64 entry, would the series be bigger? Or would we have never gotten Metroid Prime?And which two powerups probably caused the most headaches?
Come play "Metroid 64 What If?" with us, and also hear our takes on the decidedly Metroid Prime looking Halo Infinite, as well as our thoughts on the latest rumors saying (you guessed it) MP Trilogy is Switch-bound soon.
Come hang, and drop us a sub!

Recently, our buds over at Shinesparkers wrote up an article detailing their plot concepts for what they wanted to see in Metroid 5, which got us thinking about our own story ideas we'd want to see in the long awaited sequel. Where is the setting? Does Samus start with full power ups? How does the corrupt Galactic Federation fit in? And is there any way to bring Ridley back that makes sense?
Dak and Andy both pitch wildly different ideas, so come and listen and tell us which one you think sounds cool, AND OF COURSE, tweet at us your own story suggestions!

Welcome to the second installment of Mapping Metroid! This time, we explore the former Chozo stronghold of Chozodia as seen in Metroid: Zero Mission! Come here us talk about all things Chozodia: the stealth segments and what we liked and didn't like about exploring Ridley's ship in the Zero Suit, all the crazy Shinespark segments you need to pull off to acquire energy tanks, the wacky boss fight with the Chozo's Final Test, the spirituality behind Samus's Power Suit, the way-too-bombastic music, and so much more!
Come give it a listen and keep the suggestions coming for the next Mapping Metroid segment!

As the old saying goes, we don't know fine art, but we do know a fine Power Suit when we see one! We're ranking all of Samus's different suits she has worn over the course of the series in the same fashion as we ranked the Ridley fights! We've got 11 different suits to go through, so come hang as we debate which ones look the best, which ones function the best, and which ones make the most sense to the story!
We have a lot of thoughts and know you guys will too, so let us know over on Twitter and Discord if you agree or disagree with our list!
