From our comments section

Destructoid has hadMetroidon the brain all week. Believe it or not, we’ve secretly been holding back from writing more about the series than we already have. We almost put together a feature about some of the awesome lookingMetroid-likes that are currently on the horizon (includingGhost Song,Chasm, andParadise Lost) but we didn’t want to burn you out on the topic.

Our currentMetroidobsession may be nearly as intense as the love thatAxiom VergedeveloperTom Happfeels for the series. Probably not though. Few people loveMetroidenough to spend five years of their life working on a game that’s basically a love letter toMetroidandSuper Metroid, but that’s exactly what he did. Even fewer people would probably use theDestructoid comments sectionto tell the world that he “…can’t commit to anything, butAxiom Vergewill probably be available for Wii U in 2016. 3DS is quite a bit more difficult since the hardware is so completely different. Should Nintendo be reading this and decide to lend me a hand, that’d be VERY appreciated!!”
