Super Metroid. A timeless classic, and one of the greatest games ever created.

Join us this weekend as we discuss the 2D Metroid games in all their glory across the Nintendo console, handheld and hybrid generations.

99 reasons why the crew has such strong feelings towards Metroid & Castlevania? There just might be!

In any event, look forward to two series spotlight episodes this month!

The crew may also raise a stein to Samus Aran & the Belmont clan over the next few weeks! 🍻
