Well folks, the day is finally upon us. Metroid: Other M is in stores now! And we at MHQ have a little gift for you all as you begin playing. Thanks to a special arrangement between us and Prima Games, we have available for you to view and download the Prima Games Metroid: Other M Walkthrough for the entire first mission. You can download it on our Metroid: Other M page, or you can view it in our brand new Features Section! There you can view the walkthrough, download the PDF, and even order the whole walkthrough from Prima if you like it. I would personally like to thank the folks at Prima for making this possible. I hope you all enjoy Metroid: Other M in the coming days, our new features section, and Prima's walkthrough. Be sure to stay on MHQ for all your Metroid needs!
Hello and welcome to another Metroid Headquarters Update, this time brought to you by the recently resurrected Dragon!
Do you like Metroid? Do you like Twitter? If so, you may be one of the lucky souls chosen to receive a free copy of Nintendo and Team Ninja's "Metroid: Other M"! It would appear that the good ol' folks at LITHCast.com have decided that there is no better way to celebrate their 5th birthday than to hand out a copy of this new anticipated Metroid game to some deserving fans. You want it? You lack rupees? Just follow them on Twitter and you may have the honor of creaming your pants with joy as you hold the next Metroid in your hands. Give it a shot, and happy hunting!
Yeah yeah, it's been forever since I personally made an update, but with everything that's been going on regarding Other M, I figured this would help MetroidMaster a bit. And speaking of Other M.... its launch is less than a week away. Woo!
I actually have something a little different for this update, though. The Returners (over at http://returnersgaming.blogspot.com/ ) are going to be hosting a 72 hour marathon for charity beginning on August 27th where they, get this, play through as many of the Metroid games as they can in 72 hours. And the gameplay will all be streamed for your enjoyment. Of course, there will be commentary and a live chatroom for discussion; certainly, getting through all the games in 72 hours will be quite a challenge. Now, since this is for a charity, they are accepting any and all donations they get. Their marathon begins in two days, so make sure to check them out on the 27th!
The second news update I have involves a contest over at AtomicGamer.com: The "Video Game Paparazzi: Samus” contest, to be specific.
Now that you're asking what that is... the contest is to photoshop beloved Samus Aran into the cover of a tabloid or gossip magazine (you know, those almost-trashy ones you see in grocery stores) and do it realistically. But that's not all!
The winner will receive a free copy of Metroid: Other M shipped right to their house on the same day it hits the store shelves! The contest link is here, and will end some time before Other M is released. If you've got photoshop skills, I'd definitely go check out the contest.
And in news of Other M, we have quite a few interesting topics going on in the Other M subforum, so make sure to visit it if you haven't already, and maybe throw a comment or two.
I think that's it for now, so I'll see you all whenever I get to do another update.
So you may have noticed that, lately, there have been trailers new content popping up all over the place for Metroid: Other M. So much so, in fact, that I pretty much gave up on posting new stuff since we were so close to launch anyway. However, two trailers have recently been released that are just too awesome to not be mentioned (or featured ^_^). Therefore, we've added two new Metroid: Other M videos; the Live Action TV Commercial (shown below) and the Action Trailer. They are awesome. Watch them. Now.
If we have any non-Flash users, you'll notice that all our YouTube videos now play in HTML5 when Flash is not an option, so that's cool.
Also, Metroid.com has been drastically updated with what looks to be the final website. Much different layout, loads more content...be sure to check that out too when you get the time.
There will be much in store for MHQ and the Metroid Community in the coming weeks as Other M launches, so be sure and stay tuned to MHQ for all your Metroid information!
Well folks, it's that time of year again. MHQ is now six years old, and boy do we have lots to show for it. Metroid Headquarters is now one of the top Metroid sites on the Internet, and it's always getting better. We have thousands of visitors every month, and that number is only going to increase as time goes on (especially in light of the upcoming Metroid: Other M), and with 692 members registered on our forums, I couldn't be happier about MHQ's growth. To celebrate, we have some cool things to show you this year. more...
