Metroid

Same. It's been ages since I watched one of their Let's Plays. But I do enjoy them a lot.

tbh I kinda expected Emile to get a Game Over against Ridley on the Ceres Space Station at the beginning of the game, only because of his performance in their Super Mario Bros 3 run :V

(fyi, yes, I know its impossible to die against Ridley at that point)

Liiiinks

A more jumpsuity Zero Suit
Confused by constellations
Zoot Suit Samus SAMUS
Unfinished
Samus is good at social.
A really cool looking Metroid cocktail. Some more.

The most discussed, and thus I believe beloved, game in the franchise is finally making its way to the NA Wii U eshop tomorrow.

The fact that Prime Trilogy was on so much earlier speaks volumes.

LOL at Nintendo's description.

lol

My sides

Mega lol

lol again

Edit: At least they had the sense to use the best moment of the game as the representative picture.

I'm writing a fanfiction that involves Samus going undercover in the criminal underworld. What do you think would be an appropriate alias for her?

You could always be a smartass and have it be Justine Bailey.

Can't. I already have a character named Justin Bailey. He's kind of like a future version of Hugh Hefner, just not as old. He asks Samus to be his bodyguard cuz people are trying to kill him, and Samus is like "no," but then someone tries to kill Bailey right when Samus is there and she ends up saving his life, and at one point Bailey find out Samus is a woman and he keeps hitting on her and offering her a job as a model.

Samantha Narpass, maybe?

ENGAGE RIDLEY MOTHER FUCKER?

MERF

That will still forever be the best password.

Indeed. The fact that it bricked 3DS systems made it even better.

Jennifer Hale, maybe?

Captain Falcon.

I like to imagine it's Samus herself entering that password, too.

Apropos of nothing, I'd like to note that the majority of people I see playing Lt. Morales in Heroes of the Storm pick the Samus-based alternate skin◊. Make of this what you will.

Cause even as the Designated Healer Morales is still a badass space marine

Hey guys! You know what I just realized?

Since Metroid has no games coming out lately, you could say that Samus has zero missions!

HAHAHAHAHAHAhahahahahaha... ha... haaa...

Congratulations, you played yourself.

And Nintendo played all of us.

The galaxy is at peace, I guess.

Give it back to Retro. It doesn't even have to be a full-blown entry or a Prime game— do like a 2D (or 2.5D) gaiden game, maybe about the size of Shadow Complex, and throw it on the eShop, see what happens.

Let's just hope the last Metroid really isn't in captivity.

I'd honestly love to see a 2D Metroid from Retro. Then again, as much as I love the Prime series, I'm really craving another 2D game in general. Metroid-inspired platformers can only keep me going for so long.

I mean, I'd be down with NLG repurposing the engine from Federation Force. It's a good engine with a lot of bullshit on it.
