Episode 18

Metroid is one of Nintendo's most popular game franchises, right up there with Super Mario Bros and The Legend of Zelda! The game stars Samus Aran, one of gaming's most famous female characters. When this game was released in 1987, it was one of the ONLY Nintendo games where you could play as a woman!

Many later games would take inspiration from Metroid's non-linear style. If you love games like Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, The Messenger, or Hollow Knight, then you have Metroid to thank for pioneering that style of game play!

But how did this landmark game get designed? How did they come up with the title? What inspired the team to choose a woman as the hero, instead of a more generic male action hero?

In today's episode, we'll explore all of that, and then we'll dive into the game! We'll learn:

Where to find EVERY WEAPON AND ITEM, including all 21 Missile packs!

TRICKS we can use to get powerful Items EARLY!

Absolutely NO HIGH BOMB JUMPS required to do any tricks in here!

The SECRET to accessing a HIDDEN WORLD, not found on any official map!

A SHORTCUT we can use to skip directly to the game's final area!

STRATEGIES for fighting the titular Metroids!

How to find and defeat ALL of the game's bosses, including the MOTHER BRAIN!

How to get ALL 5 different endings... AND MORE!

SPECIAL NOTE - Music Track from Iron Mike Sharp!
