If you’re a fan of Metroid inspired fan fiction then you’ll want to check out Lonely on Zebes if you haven’t already. The creator who I could only discern through investigation is none other than Capcom of the Metroid Database.

I was perusing the web and I came across something a few of you might be interested in reading. Controlling Metroid: A Struggle with Authorship by Ben Alfred takes a long hard look at the relationship between narrative and gameplay in Metroid: Other M.

If you’ve been on the border about getting the Metroid Prime Trilogy the decision may soon be out of your hands if you want a new copy. Nintendo has stopped publishing the game but you can still find it in resell stores. On the other hand if you live in the UK you’re in luck, Nintendo has confirmed that they are still publishing it there. We’ve also got more scenes from the Prime series from Kasper Tromp in the Metroid Gallery so be sure to check them out. On top of that Luis has devised a theory to explain some of the plot holes in the Prime subseries so be sure to give it a read.

We’ve got more amazing artwork from Kasper Tromp in the metroid gallery. Hold onto your hat for a moment; Metroid Reorchestrated a site dedicated to remixing metroid soundtracks, is online and they’ve already remixed six themes! My personal favorite is their remix of the metroid 2 main theme. Be sure to keep your eye tuned to their site. (Thanks for the tip Philip!)
