What's your take?

Never played Metroid Zero Mission before, but what a game!

No wonder a genre was half named after it.

Would love to do a podcast episode on the Metroid series, if there are experts or anyone around who worked on it.

Question answered: the black and gold NEOGEO Super Pocket! Should have gone to Paddy Power and had a flutter.

Hopefully the scalpers will be kept at bay with more stock soon...

Pre-orders for new Evercade goodies are open.

Question is, what’s going to sell out first?

Our money is on the regular black and gold NEOGEO Supet Pocket - although the special edition is a must-buy for collectors too.
