After all the chaos of the last few weeks, we thought we'd better open it up to our listeners to see what was on their minds! We asked you for your questions, and you delivered in this weeks Q&A, so buckle in! We're covering topics like: what will Samus's red and black suit functionality be like? Do the chances of seeing Ridley in Beyond seem slim now? Will the Delano 7 show up? What would we do if we were in charge of Metroid ...
Andy is out this week on the pod, meaning Dak and Doom are here to take the wheel! Last week, we discussed the Metroid Prime 4: Beyond Nintendo Treehouse demo in great detail to fully analyze its contents. This week, we gathered ALL of the official info on the game we could find; from gameplay to developer quotes, and attempted to use that information to predict where the game's story is heading. What are Sylux's motivations? Do th...
Andy and Doom return after another crazy week of news updates regarding Switch 2 pre-orders, tariffs, and games! We sort through it all and then take a look in depth at the Treehouse footage from last week, talking about the amazing opening cinematic, the text crawl, the standoff between Samus and Sylux, the artifact, and the Golem mechs! We lament over what could have been with Federation Force, speculate about the whereabouts of ...
What a crazy week it has been. We have no time to waste, so we kick off the show with some talk about our thoughts on the price of the Switch 2, Mario Kart World, and the pre-orders being delayed in North America (Canadian pre-orders had not been delayed at the time of recording). After that, we get down to the fun business and talk to Dak, who got a chance to get some hands on game time in New York at the Nintendo Switch 2 event! ...
As a little bonus, here's our Switch 2 Direct watchalong audio in podcast form! You can also watch the full video VOD here. Enjoy!

WOW! Today was the day that Nintendo fans have been waiting for: The Nintendo Switch 2 Direct, and boy what a show we got! After months of anticipation since the January 18th reveal of the console and a lower key Switch 1 Direct last week to briefly tide us over, Nintendo finally delivered the megaton of Switch 2 information that we've been craving.
Among the key announcement were the price and release date, Mario Kart World, Hyrul...
WHOA! Well, in the span of 24 hours, we had a surprise Nintendo Direct announcement that promised to showcase Switch 1 titles, so of course, we all buckled up for the latest Metroid Prime 4 news, and the Direct delivered! While the overall quality of the Direct itself was debatable at best, the trailer shown for Beyond was awesome, introducing us to the new planet Viewros, new Psychic Abilities for Samus, new alien friends and foes...
It's almost here! We are one week away from the Switch 2 Direct, and we are full of thoughts, hopes, and predictions!

Inspired By Metroid returns this week, as Andy and Zach get together to talk about a game somewhat light on Metroid references, but one with a deep connection to our community! Acclaimed developer of AM2R Milton Guasti joined Squid Shock Studios to make the wonderful Bō: Path of the Teal Lotus, a Metroidvania that could best be described as Ōkami meets Hollow Knight, and this week, the guys get together and talk about what they lik...
fter a long layoff, Definitive Ranking returns, and this time we have our work cut out for us! We are tasked with ranking the most un-Metroid Metroid game there is, 2016's multiplayer spinoff Federation Force! We give the game it's due while talking about the deep customization options and solid gameplay and level design, while also unfortunately taking it to task for it's shortcomings in the music, story, and art style department....

We talk the rooms, the expansions, the story and characters, the bombastic opening sequence, which is half Ha...

Milton offers his thoughts, perspective, and memories making AM2R as we play through, so imagine this as a Directors Commentary cut, like the DVD days of old! Thank you so muc...

In case you've been living under a rock, Nintendo released a, what has to be described as lackadaisical, video revealing the successor the the Switch: the aptly named Nintendo Switch 2! We go over the info we have, discuss the mouse-Joycons, talk about some of the QOL improvements, discuss the magnetic Joycon connectors, give our thoughts on Mario Kart 9, and our overall thoughts on the lack of pizzazz given to the reveal. PLUS we ...

We talk about the games unique atmosphere, it's similarities to Breath of the Wild and Super Metroid, the lack...
After a long layoff, everyone's favorite gameshow SAMUS'S PERCENTAGES returns! The premise is simple: we make a statement and give a percentage on how likely to be true that statement is, 100% being a certainty, 0% being an impossibility. This week, we're focused on the Switch 2, with Samus's Percentages like: Does Metroid Prime 4 launch on Switch 2 Day 1? Will the Switch 2 cost $399.99? Could we get apps like Netflix and Prime Vid...
Another year has passed by, and while there was no new Metroid games released in 2024, you can't say it was a quiet year for our favorite franchise! Zero Mission made its way to NSO, rumors of the Switch 2 dominated the year, and after 7 long years, we finally saw Metroid Prime 4! We review the year that was, and look ahead to 2025 and ask questions like when will the Switch 2 release, will Metroid Prime 4 be a cross-gen title, is ...
