“We are taking a break from the Metroid series and from Samus. I’m sure there’ll be other titles created, but as far as the Retro Studios is concerned, we’re taking a break for a little bit,”

While on the topic of great interviews and Metroid, you might want to stop byG4and take a gander at their even better take on the goodies. That is, if you’re not too busy enjoying the game from the comfort of your own home. Ah that reminds me, I have a great game to finish.
