Episode 214 - Interviewing Grant "Stemage" Henry of Metroid Metal!
We have a very special guest joining us in the virtual studio this week; Grant Henry aka Stemage, the creator of Metroid Metal! Stemage has been composing metal variations of Metroid’s iconic music for over 20 years. While nowadays you’ll mostly find him doing freelance work for several projects such as BIT.TRIP RERUNNER and Hextech Mayhem: A League of Legends Story, Stemage is still touring to this day with the rest of the Metroid Metal band doing live shows! Join our discussion with the man himself as we talk about the origins of Metroid Metal and how it evolved into a full band, what we love so much about the music of the series, our hopes and dreams for Metroid Prime 4 and… Dr. Mario?
All of that and more can be found in this nearly 2 HOUR conversation! This is one episode you definitely don’t want to miss!

Episode 213 - We Answer Your Questions In Metroid Q&A!
We're kicking it old school this week with a classic Dak & Andy joint, answering all of YOUR fan questions! Some of the topics on tap: If Hunters were to ever to be remade, aside from controls, what improvements could be made? If Dread was priced lower, would it have sold more copies? Would it veer make sense to rebrand the series as the 'Samus Aran' series to get more exposure? How could the Space Jump boots be improved in a Metroid Prime game? Was Nintendo justified in announcing Metroid Prime 4 so early? How has the wait for Prime 4 felt over the past 7 years? Do we like playing the Prime Trilogy on Hard difficulty, and if so, why?
These are just a handful of the topics on tap for today, so make sure to tune in as we cover a whole wide array of things around the Metroid universe!

Episode 212 - Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown: Inspired By Metroid
Inspired By Metroid returns, and just in time to tackle of the most hyped Metroidvania's in years: Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown! The recent release from Ubisoft gained rave reviews, and it's not hard to see why - this might very well be one of the best Metroidvania's ever created! Omega Metroid Social Manager Jules Gia joins to show to talk about the otherworldly platforming, psychological horror story elements, the creative use of time rewinding abilities, the amazing music and original rap songs, the incredible design of the map, and the multitude of things this game does that should instantly become staples in every Metroidvania - including Metroid 6 going forward!
This episode is a doozy, so strap in, and get ready as we return to Persia to talk what has to be an early GOTY front-runner!

Episode 211 - DOOMtroid: ROM Hack Reviews (PATREON UNLOCK!)
We originally had an Inspired By Metroid game on tap for this week, but we ran into some scheduling issues, so instead of rushing it, we're pushing our show back one week and instead unlocking another ROM Hack Review from the vault! One of the most widely fantasized crossovers in the video game world would be the merging of the Metroid and DOOM universes, so this month for ROM Hack Reviews, Andy plays the crossover game DOOMtroid! And of course, we couldn’t talk about Metroid and DOOM without our own Doominal Crossing, so the fellas team up to examine this Metroid: Zero Mission hack from Jefe962. Does this hack rip and slay, or is it better off staying in Hell? Come listen to find out, and as always, try the hack for yourself here!
To gain access to the rest of the ROM Hack Reviews series, as well as the Great Metroid Area Ranking, the Spiteri Show, and so much more, sign up for the Omega Tier on Omega Metroid’s Patreon page!

Episode 210 - Norfair: Mapping Metroid
Our Super Metroid celebration comes to a conclusion this week as we wrap it up in style by bringing back Mapping Metroid! On the docket this month is the fiery, sweltering, and frankly awesome area of Norfair! We go over everything that makes this so special, including the amazing boss fights, the instantly iconic musical tracks, the structure and divide of the less-intense upper Norfair versus the dangerous lower half, and the great expansions and sequence breaks throughout! We also give love to our favorite rooms, standout enemies, and more!
All this, PLUS we queue up next week's Inspired By Metroid game, so come and hang out with us!

Episode 209 - Ranking the Bosses of Super Metroid!
Our Super Metroid anniversary celebration continues this week, as Andy is joined again by Omega Metroid Community Manager Lillith and Zach Guillot of the Collateral Gaming Video Game Podcast to discuss one of the (many) high spots of this legendary game: it's bosses! We're ranking each fight until we get to the best of the best! Come hear our thoughts on the story driven battle with Mother Brain, the surprisingly intense showdown with the Golden Torizo, the heartbreaking Crocomire encounter, Phantoon's creepy ghostly altercation, the amazing hoss fight between Ridley and Samus, and so much more!
All this, PLUS we share our thoughts on the new Alien Romulus trailer! Join the celebration of Super Metroid with us and let us know what your own ranking looks like!

Customer Reviews
They’ve come a long way!
At the start of the podcast, I was kind of not interested in the podcast. But Andy has been really improving in my opinion and the past 30 episodes have been awesome! They’ve gone from a 2-Star podcast to a 5-Star podcast. You guys are awesome!
Great podcast
I really enjoy this podcast! Maybe you could talk about Hollow Knight... I believe it's the best metroidvania of all time.
Amazing!
I heard about you from Hello Hyrule and loved your show! Have you ever played a Metroid randomizer? Your show got me to try one and would hope one day you talk about them!
