Metroid Animation

So, things have gone a bit quiet with the Metroid franchise. Metroid: Other M divided fans on the Wii, 3DS ambassadors received a copy of Game Boy Advance title Metroid Fusion, and the IP made an appearance in Nintendo Land. None of those have quite satisfied fans in recent years, it's safe to assume.

While Nintendo's no doubt considering its next move with the series, fans will continue to pay homage in various ways through art, music and good-old YouTube videos. A user on the latter, DaveRapoza, has produced a short animation based on Super Metroid, and it's certainly eye-catching. The prospect of this being a series rather than a short experiment in animation is certainly going onto the wishlist here at Nintendo Life HQ.
