The band is back together again, still reeling from last weeks' incredible reveal of Metroid Prime 4: Beyond. This week, we're sharing our theories on what could be going on with the story, including: is there going to be any time travel or alternative dimensions that we can travel to? What is motivating Sylux and why do they hate the Federation so much? Could see revisit planets previously seen in the Trilogy? When does this game take place in the timeline? Are those Mochtroids or a new type of Metroid that we see around Sylux? And what's going on with the Space Pirates this time around?
We're super exciting to be sharing our theories, so make sure you get in on the action by participating in our Q&A show next week!

IT'S REAL! After seven long years, we FINALLY got our first look at the newly rechristened Metroid Prime 4: Beyond! The fellas get together to break down the trailer and everything saw, from the impressive graphics to the slick HUD, offer our thoughts on Samus's design for her Power Suit and Gunship, offer thoughts on how the Scan Visor works, touch on the music and audio queues in the trailer, and of course, break down THAT moment where the world was officially introduced to Sylux! We also reflect on what this announcement means to us personally, as a collection of friends who started a weekly Metroid podcast years ago, to finally see the inspiration for the start of our journey!
We're also touching on Metroid: Zero Mission, The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom, Perfect Dark, and some of the other major announcements from this star studded Nintendo Direct! If this is your first time listening: welcome to the Omega Metroid Podcast!

Everyone's favorite game-show, Samus's Percentages, returns! The premise is simple: we read a statement and then assign it a percentage on it coming true or not, and this time around, we're focusing on Metroid Prime 4 and the June Direct! We're giving our percentages on questions like: do we see Metroid Prime 4? Do we see any Metroid titles? Will there be two or less first party Nintendo games shown? Is Metroid Prime 5 releasing within 3 years after Prime 4? Will Nintendo let the Switch 2 launch with Prime 4 as its only game for a month?
All this and so much more, PLUS we're giving our thoughts on all the new games shown this weekend at Summer Games Fest, including Perfect Dark, Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown DLC, and Doom: The Dark Ages! Don't miss out!

We're bringing back our Q&A episode, and this time around, we're dedicating the whole show to Metroid: Samus Returns! We're answering your questions, such as: despite it being a great game, is Samus Returns a great remake? Could Aeion abilities have regenerated the same way as in Dread, or would that have made them OP? Is the Surface theme truly an iconic song? Was the inclusion of the Baby Metroid one of the smartest ideas in the series? Is there still a chance Samus Returns could end up on Switch? Do we prefer Fusion difficulty to Dread difficulty?
All this and so much more, PLUS some Godzilla talk and wishing a happy Pride Month to everyone!

Mapping Metroid returns to tackle one of the oldest - and deadliest - areas in the series: Ridley's Lair from NEStroid! We're back almost 40 years to examine the layout of this area, how it serves as a skill-checking gauntlet run for the player, the creepy and unsettling music and how it adds to the atmosphere, if this hideout could have used a few more items and expansions, our favorite rooms ans the trickery involved in them, and of course, the epic(?) showdown with the earliest version of Ridley!
All this, PLUS some ROM-Hack talk, Zero Mission comparisons, a new Doom game rumored, and a debate over the recently released Furiosa! Come and hear out thoughts and let us know what you think of Ridley's Lair!

Finally, after 600 years, Nintendo has officially acknowledged the existence of a successor to the Nintendo Switch. Dak & Doom jump on the show this week to talk about this announcement, plus Nintendo's last fiscal results and what it all means for Metroid. How did Metroid fair on the Switch compared to other first-party Nintendo titles? Was Metroid a success on the Switch based on its sales? Will a Metroid remake or remaster hit the Switch before the next system releases? And will Prime 4 be part of the Switch's last game releases, or will it be an exciting launch title for the new Nintendo console?
All that and more on our latest episode. Join us!

We have a very special guest joining us in the virtual studio this week; Grant Henry aka Stemage, the creator of Metroid Metal! Stemage has been composing metal variations of Metroid’s iconic music for over 20 years. While nowadays you’ll mostly find him doing freelance work for several projects such as BIT.TRIP RERUNNER and Hextech Mayhem: A League of Legends Story, Stemage is still touring to this day with the rest of the Metroid Metal band doing live shows! Join our discussion with the man himself as we talk about the origins of Metroid Metal and how it evolved into a full band, what we love so much about the music of the series, our hopes and dreams for Metroid Prime 4 and… Dr. Mario?
All of that and more can be found in this nearly 2 HOUR conversation! This is one episode you definitely don’t want to miss!

We're kicking it old school this week with a classic Dak & Andy joint, answering all of YOUR fan questions! Some of the topics on tap: If Hunters were to ever to be remade, aside from controls, what improvements could be made? If Dread was priced lower, would it have sold more copies? Would it veer make sense to rebrand the series as the 'Samus Aran' series to get more exposure? How could the Space Jump boots be improved in a Metroid Prime game? Was Nintendo justified in announcing Metroid Prime 4 so early? How has the wait for Prime 4 felt over the past 7 years? Do we like playing the Prime Trilogy on Hard difficulty, and if so, why?
These are just a handful of the topics on tap for today, so make sure to tune in as we cover a whole wide array of things around the Metroid universe!
