October 15, 2025 Episode 288 - Answering Your Silksong Questions!
Get ready for a SOLO SPITERI episode, as Andy is by himself this week talking about Hollow Knight: Silksong! We asked for your questions, and you delivered, so we get to touch on a bunch of different topics, including: what do we think Hollow Knight did better than Silksong and vice versa? What was Andy's favorite boss fight? Is it a per-requisite for Metroid 6 to have side content now? Could charms or a skill tree work in a Metroid game? Should Metroid 6 try and be as long as Silksong? And finally, what's Andy's take on the difficulty of the game - was it not accessible enough, or was this the right vision?
All this, plus some Middle-Earth: The Podcast previews. Come hang out as we talk all things Silksong!

October 08, 2025 Episode 287 - Ranking the Best 2D-to-3D Enemy Translations in Metroid!
We're back and battling through technical difficulties to bring you a really weird episode we've wanted to do for a while: ranking the best enemy transitions from 2D Metroid to 3D Metroid! As you'd expect, there's a lot of Metroid Prime Trilogy baddies here, but we also give a lot of love to Other M for its designs as well. From common goons like Geemers, Atomics, and Kihunters to top tier foes like Nightmare, Queen Metroid and Ridley, we examine the most impactful transitions and rank 'em! Let us know what you think!
PLUS - next week, it's Silksong Q7A next week, so get your question in here and they'll be answered!

October 01, 2025 Episode 286 – Metroid Prime 4 Fan Q&A!
Last week after deep diving into the recent Metroid Prime 4: Beyond trailer frame-by-frame, we asked you the listeners to give us your lingering questions about the game following the latest info dump. Spoiler alert; YOU DELIVERED! Today, you're in charge of the show as we answer nearly every one of the questions you asked as we approach the release of Metroid Prime 4. Do we expect the Vi-O-La bike to recieve any unique upgrades? Will the desert be even more expansive than the trailer has let on? How much of a role will the Phazon storyline play in Metroid Prime 4's story? And... will we see Sylux unmasked?
All of this plus our thoughts on Doug Bowser retiring and the promotion of Devon Pritchard to NOA president!

After a technical snafu caused the episode to be delayed a day the fellas are finally back to finish their discussion about Hollow Knight! We talk about the music and its impact on the ambience, go over each area and discuss what we liked about them, gush about the incredible platforming found in the White Palace, go in depth on the games lore and detail the conflict between the Pale King and the Radiance, and talk about the various endings, including the "true" ending where the Infection is stopped once and for all! We agree this is an S-tier Metroidvania, and we're closing our our review in style, so come hang out with us!
All this, PLUS Andy gives his initial Silksong impressions and we prepare for the Nintendo Direct on Friday, where we likely learn about the fate of Metroid Prime 4's release date! Get in here!!

August 27, 2025 Episode 281 - ROM Hack Reviews: Super Metroid X-Fusion
It's the first new (and free!) ROM Hack Reviews in years, and not a moment too soon, as Andy and Doom are discussing what could arguably be called the most anticipated Metroid ROM Hack of all time: Super Metroid X-Fusion! Billed as the first ever Cross Hack between (you guessed it) Super and Metroid Fusion, we go over the good, the bad, and the ugly of this Hack. Made by Metaquarius, this hack has incredible atmosphere, heart-stopping SA-X encounters, diabolical expansion puzzles, a questionable story, and an absolutely horrific difficulty curve - we're breaking it all down, so come and listen, and feel free to give the Hack a try for yourself!
All this, plus we talk about Hollow Knight Silksong's upcoming release date, plus Kirby's Air Riders releasing in November and the implications that has for Metroid Prime 4. Come hang out!

August 20, 2025Episode 280 – Definitively Ranking Metroid Prime Hunters
Definitive Ranking returns! This time around, we're examining the single-player campaign of Metroid Prime Hunters. We cover the good, the bad, and the ugly, as we cover the cool character designs, awesome weapons, lacklustre boss battles, OST, and the make-or-break point of the game: those darn stylus controls!
Come play along, and as always, here’s the criteria for the Definitive Rankings:
World / Atmosphere (the vibe, the setting, the mood)
Art Style (design of Samus, the enemies, the graphics in general)
Story (what works, what doesn’t)
Pacing / Progression (are there any parts that really bog the player down, or is it still fun getting lost?)
Gameplay / “Gimmick” (what new or different gameplay aspects we like)
Items / Abilities (how are the powerups and are they cool and practical)
Areas (how does each individual area look, feel, play, etc.)
Enemies / Bosses (are they fun, creative, etc.)
Expansions / Powerups (are the expansions hidden throughout the world fun, creative, and enjoyable to collect?)
Music (are we humming along?)
Of course, all of these are subjective, and we’re putting our critics hats on, but we want to hear what you have to say on Bluesky!

August 13, 2025 Episode 279 – Metroid Manga in Review: Samus & Joey EX (Part 2)
There is absolutely no time to waste, as this week, we finish off the Samus & Joey saga after 18 months and say goodbye to these characters we've grown to (sometimes begrudgingly) love. We pick up where we left off last week, with Samus, Joey, and Diesel preparing for the final battle against Greed and his henchmen, Knight and Bishop. Returning characters, babyface turns, cathartic victories, and amazing action and art make the back half of Samus & Joey Ex the best run of chapters yet, so come listen as we break down the action and bid farewell to this beloved manga.
All of the Samus & Joey manga have been faithfully translated by our pals at Metroid Database, so make sure to check them and their manga section out so you can read for yourself!
