    @@zemocon2868 I agree. The term Metroidvania didn't exist for nothing all these years. But it is also true that the mainline games only had a core audience and didn't really have mass public awareness. I hope this will change if/when the Metroid Prime Trilogy gets released for the Nintendo Switch in anticipation for Metroid Prime 4.

    I hate that people keep pretending metroid is a part of the horror Genre. There is nothing remotely terrifying or horrifying about the metroid franchise. I think people just say that because its loosely based off of Alien. Sure some of the boss designs are unsettling but they arent scary. It's a sci-fi action adventure game. I'd say Castlevania falls more in line with Horror but even that is a pretty big stretch in most cases. I'm just so tired of the whole 'metroid is so scary' narrative. Maybe if you're 5 it's scary, but putting it in the horror genre is a disservice.

I’m still working on Raven Beak, though, but that’s only because I injured my thumb and wrist (an RSI), and the pain makes it hard to get to the third phase.

Metroid on NES did not have an 8-bit sprite or render of the ship she used to get to Zebes and prior to Zero Mission's existence, the general consensus was that her ship in Metroid 2(which is the same ship she uses in Super Metroid and the beginning of Metroid Fusion, while Metroid Prime 2 and Other M uses the same design rendered in 3D) was the design of the ship she used in Metroid 1 before Zero Mission retconned it so that it gets destroyed and she gets a new ship after her escape from Zebes.

For many years I was not able to get my hands on a copy until the Super Nintendos lifecycle was almost at an end. When I finally saw it in a store, it had a golden seal "Nintendo classics" on it. (Still have the original cartridge and own it digitally on Wii-U) Super Metroid became one of my favourite video games ever. Played through it at least 2 dozen times and just finished it again a few days ago. Love it! Dread is also amazing. Just unlocked the entire gallery. And now I REALLY want Prime 4 :D

    The Metroid series is a series I can always come back with something to look forward to. With most of the games having a level of quality built around them and how different it feels from other Nintendo IPs. Nintendo has always had a friendly friendly image so it is refreshing to see something a bit more mature. With Mario games being too generic for my tastes, Zelda games being hit and miss and Pokémon missing that nail of quality. Metroid is the series I can always think about and smile with each time I play the games. With Zero Mission being my favorite game in the franchise. I’m glad Metroid is finally in the spotlight again.

Not a lot of people have a Wii U, less have the original cartridges or the means to play them, and there's no point taking down ROM distribution services if you're not offering the same thing yourself. Nobody benefits from that. Best time to put Fusion on Switch would have been to shadow drop it the _day_ you announced Dread. Second best time is now. I'm smart, hire me.

    Well, you are wrong about the romsites thing. If a company just allows people to freely distribute their IP then they could lose their copyright. After all, you need to defend your copyright in order to keep it.
