Episode 301 – Reacting to Nintendo's Famitsu Interview Discussing Metroid Prime 4's Development, Timeline Placement, and Story Philosophy
07/1/2026 | 1h 44 mins.
We're starting 2026 off with a bang by discussing Nintendo's recent interview with Fasmitsu about Metroid Prime 4! Translated by our pals over at Shinesparkers, this interview with the unnamed developer touches on multiple topics, including the premise of the game and the intent for Sylux to be a major player, the placement of Beyond in the Metroid timeline, the challenges of restarting development, how Sol Valley and Vi-O-La came to be, what influence Breath of the Wild had on development, and the rationale behind that controversial ending. We are giving our thoughts and reactions, saying what we sympathize with and what offends us about these answers. All this, PLUS we're talking about what we want to see from the Metroid series in 2026! Beyond DLC, Metroid 6, Vi-O-La in Mario Kart, and more! Come hang out! Visit OmegaMetroid.com! Subscribe!

We're back with the next chapter of our Metroid Prime 4: Beyond journey! This week we're approaching the end as we discuss the last major area in the game: the Great Mines. We discuss everything about the area from the art direction, level design, puzzles, the greater emphasis on combat, including some of the unique gameplay hooks that accompany it as well as an absolutely KILLER boss fight that left everyone impressed! We also go over the storyline of the mines regarding the Galactic Federation Troopers that join us and discuss our opinions of how that's handled. All of this, plus a short discussion on the Mech Parts and Green Energy Crystals which make up Metroid Prime 4's version of the series' mainstay endgame fetch quest. Come let us know what your thoughts are, and beware: there are spoilers for the Great Mines and the late game fetch quests!

Episode 297 - Reviewing Metroid Prime 4's Volt Forge, Sol Valley, & Vi-O-La
10/12/2025 | 1h 26 mins.
We're back with more Metroid Prime 4! This week, we continue our journey and discuss Volt Forge, its crazy puzzles, vertical level design, pounding soundtrack, and pair of awesome, yet curious, boss battles! We then talk Vi-O-La, how it feels, how it handles, what combat is like, and the transition to the biggest point of contention: Sol Valley! What do we think of the desert, do we like the Shrines, are the crashed GF sites interesting, and is the desert just too empty? Plus, we have a HEATED debate about Vi-O-La radio and whether it should be locked behind amiibo or not. Come let us know what your thoughts are, and beware: there are spoilers for Volt Forge and the early parts of the game before Ice Belt within! Next week, we're back with our thoughts on Ice Belt and Flare Pool, so keep it locked on Omega! Visit OmegaMetroid.com! Subscribe! Podbean x iTunes x Spotify x YouTube Support us on Patreon!
