  Episode 320 – If A Super Metroid Remake is Going to Happen, What Would We Want From It? 20.05.2026 1時間 12分

  Remakes, remakes, remakes. You don't really want them, we don't really want them, but hey - where there's smoke, there's fire. The rumors around a Super Metroid remake have been floating around for a while, and while we would all prefer a Metroid 6 next, we talk about what we would want from this remake if it should happen. We discuss this hypothetical remake should use the Dread engine, if 2D-HD would be a good look for the game, what Zero Mission areas and content could be added, even what type of remake this could end up being. All this and more is discussed, so let us know what you think about this hypothetical remake and what you'd want to see!   Visit OmegaMetroid.com! Subscribe!

  We are back this week to discuss a whole lotta Nintendo news, and to warn everyone: most of it ain’t great. We talk of Metroid Prime 4’s sales performance and how, given that neither the Switch 1 or Switch 2 Editions have cracked a million units sold individually, it may be high time to officially call Beyond a flop… if you hadn’t been calling it that already. Also on the docket: Switch 2 price increases, MercurySteam layoffs, Pick Your Bundle Switch 2 news, Takashi Tezuka’s retirement, and our thoughts on the Star Fox announcement.  There’s a whole lot going on, so come and share your thoughts with us as we try and make sense of the news!   Visit OmegaMetroid.com!
